Baccalaureate Student Outcomes in Research Methods
Authors: Vourlekis Betsy S. , Bembry James X.
Published: June 2018

Programs seek innovative and useful approaches to demonstrate accountability for quality results through systematic evaluation and improvement of programmatic outcomes. In this undertaking the research curriculum is an important area for scrutiny. This study tested student outcomes in research methods classes in a baccalaureate program to examine the outcomes of research knowledge, attitudes, and self-confidence for a cohort of students as a whole (N=82) and for four different research class “options” provided in the program's curriculum. Outcome measures were test scores on the standardized Kirk-Rosenblatt Research Knowledge Scale, and a self-efficacy rating measure. Findings showed satisfactory student achievement overall in comparison to other reported BSW samples (posttest scores), mixed evidence to the program concerning knowledge gains and student self-confidence, but considerable consistency of outcomes across class options. Results illuminate useful areas for further investigation and enhancement.
Fields of Social Work Practice: Social Work Students' Attitudes and Interests
Authors: Csikai Ellen , Belanger Kathleen
Published: June 2018

This article reports the results of a study designed to examine factors that influence social work students' interest in eight fields of practice, through the use of a multidimensional measure of attitudes. BSW students indicated greatest interest in school social work, children's services, and child welfare services, whereas MSW students preferred medical social work, children's services, and mental health. A common predictor of students' interest in six settings was the belief that working in a particular field would be depressing. Social work educators must determine trend areas of highest demand for professional services and adapt curricula to enhance interest and prepare graduates to meet the changing needs of society.
Teaching Effectiveness in the Social Work Practice Class: BSW Students' Views
Authors: Knight Carolyn
Published: June 2018

One hundred and ninety-two students from seven social work programs were surveyed regarding their instructor's use of classroom teaching behaviors, exams, papers, and role plays and the instructor's knowledge, experience, and ability to serve as a role model. The association between these variables and three measures of teaching effectiveness was examined. Results suggest that the instructor's knowledge of the field practicum, the ability to convey this knowledge to students, and help students link classroom and field learning are critical. The findings reveal the subtle role played by instructor experience in enhancing teaching effectiveness. Implications of the findings are discussed, including contradictions between what students found helpful and what they reported their instructor actually did.
Social Work Education and Service Learning
Authors: King Michael E.
Published: June 2018

In order to increase the collaboration between communities and schools of social work, this article urges educators at both the undergraduate and graduate levels to consider the benefits of including service learning in social work curricula. An approach to social work education via service learning places an equal emphasis on meaningful community service and student skill development, in contrast to other forms of experiential learning. An empowering approach to integrating theory and practice, service learning embodies specific social work values, such as respect for diversity, self-determination, collaboration, social justice, a person-in-environment focus, and accountability. Drawing on recent examples from baccalaureate and master's-level programs, empirical evidence supporting the efficacy of service learning in the field of social work is offered.
Incorporating Principles of Solution-Focused Intervention into the Generalist Practice Curriculum
Authors: Knight Carolyn
Published: June 2018

Brief, solution-focused intervention embodies some of the more important and distinguishing assumptions of social work practice, most notably the strengths and resilience orientations. This practice model provides a much-needed link between the abstract arena of the classroom and contemporary social work practice. In this article, the author presents the key assumptions of this model. Through the use of a case example, the author also discusses how this model may be incorporated into the generalist social work practice curriculum.
CONCEPTS OF THEORY, PRACTICE, AND INTEGRATION IN SOCIAL WORK: THE STUDENT PERSPECTIVE
Authors: LEWIS CHRISTINE H.
Published: June 2018

The concepts of theory, practice, and integration in social work have largely been examined in the professional literature from an academic, normative approach with little attention to the student perspective. This exploratory study focused on the student voice and asked undergraduate social work students what these concepts meant to them. A knowledge of student understanding of these key concepts may help social work educators to better understand and reformulate the challenge of integrating practice and theory. The wide range of student responses were analyzed using the adult education framework of surface and deep approaches to learning. Findings carry implications for the development of more meaningful teaching-learning strategies and areas of future research to address this longstanding challenge.
STARTING WHERE THE STUDENT IS: ADAPTING SOCIAL JUSTICE CURRICULA TO POVERTY ATTITUDES
Authors: GASKER JANICE A. , VAFEAS JOHN G.
Published: June 2018

Consistent with the generalist social work perspective and values, many social work students appear to begin their studies believing that the causes of poverty are structural (due to societal factors) and not individual (due to individual defects). There is some evidence that social work curricula serve to confirm this perception. Existing research, however, also suggests that, along with a deepening structural understanding of the causes of poverty, these students may develop fatalistic attitudes about alleviating poverty. In response to this challenge to social work education, this pilot study explores the potential of a course devoted to reinforcing perceptions of the structural causes of poverty without instilling fatalism. Findings suggest that the participants in this introductory level social work course develop significantly stronger structural explanations for poverty without developing a fatalistic attitude towards solutions. Undergraduate student attitudes, implications for social work curriculum developments and potential evaluation methods are discussed.
Examining How Professionals Describe the Strengths Perspective in Their Practice
Authors: Schatz Mona Struhsaker , Flagler Marita Nika
Published: June 2018

Agency-based human services workers (N= 17) were asked to describe five central principles they believe direct their practice with those they work with. All these workers are employed in an agency that embraces the strengths perspective as its overarching agency mission and practice approach when working with adults with disabilities in supported employment. The results from written surveys reveal that their practice principles are organized around two major tenets. First, the working relationship between their consumers and themselves is an essential component of the intervention and is characterized by mutuality, collaboration, and partnership. Second, an adherence to a value of consumer self-determination makes the consumer the director of the helping process. Components of these tenets or principles are addressed in the findings. This study contributes to our understanding of how a practice approach guides practice for social workers and other helping professionals in agencies that promote a strengths perspective.
Incorporating Practice Evaluation With the Field Practicum
Authors: Dietz Tracy J. , Westerfelt Alex , Barton Thomas R.
Published: June 2018

Social work programs are expected to provide students with the research knowledge, skills, and applications they can use in their practice to develop interventions and evaluate their own practice effectiveness. Based on CSWE's Curriculum Policy Statement and Educational Policy and Accreditation Standards, a rationale for and a model incorporating practice evaluation and research with the field practicum are described here. Several issues concerning implementation, such as alleviating student fears and enlisting agency support as well as the authors' experience incorporating practice research in the field practicum, are presented and discussed.

Authors: Thalamati Sujana , Bandaru Sailaja , Bhumireddy Divyasree
Published: June 2018

Background: Pre-eclampsia (PE) is a disorder of pregnancy characterized by the onset of high blood pressure and often a significant amount of protein in the urine. Pre-eclampsia is one of the leading causes of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality worldwide. The objective of the present study was to assess and compare the safety and efficacy of oral nifedipine and intravenous labetalol in the management of severe pre-eclampsia.Methods: A double-blind, randomized, controlled trial was conducted at a tertiary care hospital in Andhra Pradesh, on pregnant women presenting with a systolic blood pressure of 160 mm Hg or more or diastolic blood pressure of 110 mm Hg or more. The pregnant women were randomized to receive Oral nifedipine (10 mg tablet orally up to five doses) and intravenous labetalol injection in escalating doses until the target blood pressure of 150 mm Hg systolic and 100 mm Hg diastolic, or lower, was achieved. The primary endpoint of the study was the time taken by each agent to achieve target blood pressure. Secondary endpoints were number of doses required, adverse maternal and neonatal effects, side effect profile, and perinatal outcome.Results: The study was conducted in a tertiary care hospital in Andhra Pradesh from July 2016 to October 2017, on 100 pregnant women presenting with preeclampsia. The median time taken to achieve target blood pressure was 44 minutes (range: 20-60 minutes) for Oral Nifedipine and 68 minutes (range: 40-85 minutes) for Intravenous labetalol (P=0.008).  No serious adverse maternal or perinatal side effects were encountered in both the groups.Conclusions: Both oral nifedipine and intravenous labetalol are effective in the management of acute hypertensive emergencies of pregnancy; however, oral nifedipine effectively decreased the blood pressure rapidly compared to intravenous labetalol.

Published: June 2018

Background: Diabetic foot infections are a major cause of amputations and mortality. There is heterogeneity in type of superficial fungal infections because of change in climatic conditions and lifestyles across world. There is paucity of reports on etiology of superficial fungal infections in rural type 2 diabetes mellitus patients in India, so the present study was undertaken to find out the clinical pattern of superficial fungal infections in rural type 2 diabetes mellitus patients.Methods: Rural type 2 diabetes mellitus patients clinically diagnosed to have superficial fungal infection were enrolled and were subjected to direct microscopy in KOH stain and fungal culture.Results: 100 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients were enrolled (58 males and 42 females). 45 were either KOH or culture positive. 73.1% were dermatophytes and rest nondermatophytes. Trichophyton rubrum was the commonest (48.8%) dermatophyte.Conclusions: Trichophyton rubrum was the commonest dermatophyte causing superficial infection. Besides dermatophytes non-dermatophytic fungi are also emerging as important cause of superfiicial mycosis.
A jurisprudência do Tribunal de Justiça do Rio Grande do Sul sobre o direito à saúde
Authors: Bortoloti José Carlos Kraemer , Machado Guilherme Pavan
Published: June 2018

O presente trabalho tem como objetivo delinear o entendimento do direito fundamental à saúde na jurisprudência do Tribunal de Justiça do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul. Sabe-se que o direito à saúde tem previsão constitucional e infraconstitucional, atribuindo a responsabilidade ao Estado para sua realização por meio de políticas públicas e programas de governo. Contudo, a via administrativa-executiva estatal encontra dificuldades na efetividade desse direito à todos os indivíduos, não atendendo satisfatoriamente a população. Diante desse cenário, a alternativa subsidiária torna-se a judicialização da pretensão, ou seja, o cidadão, objetivando a tutela do seu pleito à saúde busca-o na prestação jurisdicional. A crescente judicialização chama atenção ao passo que denuncia a inefetividade das políticas públicas, bem como impacta no entendimento do Tribunal referente à demanda judicial pleiteada. Indubitavelmente, o direito fundamental à saúde é objeto de um contingente considerável da judicialização, muito em razão do préstimo deficiente pelas instituições do país. Por meio da pesquisa qualitativa técnica de revisão bibliográfica e do estudo de julgados no TJRS, utilizando do método fenomenológico-hermenêutico, buscar-se-á delinear o entendimento do referido tribunal, em grau de apelação, referente o fornecimento de medicamentos pelo Estado, como forma de compreender quais são as variantes que direcionam o (não) deferimento da pretensão judicial do indivíduo e como o direito à saúde se apresenta neste cenário jurisprudencial.

Authors: Fonseca Ingradi Iramaia Alves , Cardoso Fernando Da Silva
Published: June 2018

Este estudo problematiza, a partir de uma perspectiva feminista, processos de resistência à violência contra às mulheres a partir de lutas sociais protagonizadas no ciberespaço. Assim, tem-se como objetivo geral identificar as perspectivas acerca dos processos de resistência à violência contra à mulher em espaços de ciberativismo. A metodologia utilizada na referida pesquisa se deu através do método dialético, a partir de abordagem qualitativa. O tipo de pesquisa utilizado fora o bibliográfico e a técnica de coleta de dados deu-se a partir de uma abordagem etnográfica em ambiente virtual, a qual propiciou apreciação dos dados através da análise de conteúdo, tendo-se imagens-posts/excertos colhidos em comunidades virtuais sitiadas no Facebook enquanto lócus. Os resultados alcançados permitem inferir que as mulheres têm elegido ambientes virtuais enquanto instrumentos à defesa de direitos e debates em torno de questões feminis. Ainda, que este espaço tem sido resignificado a noção hegemônica de cidadania, especialmente a partir do discurso e protagonismo de movimentos feministas na luta pelos direitos das mulheres. Em suma, a análise das práticas eleitas permite-nos apontar que os obstáculos vivenciados cotidianamente por mulheres no exercício de seus direitos têm sido redimensionados a partir do ciberespaço. Constata-se que a resistência a práticas violetas e opressoras na internet tem contribuído no empoderamento feminino e na propagação da resistência a posturas sexistas.

Published: June 2018

Two cultivars of papaya fruits i.e. seeded and seedless were analyzed for their phsico- chemical and nutritional constituents The parameters studied were weight, length, colour, peel percentage, proximate composition, sugars, pH, acidity energy value and vitamin C content. Results of study revealed the cultivar differences were there in the physico –chemical and nutritional constituents of papaya fruit cultivars. The physical characterstics viz; length, weight, diameter, and peel percentage was higher in the seeded variety. Whereas, edible portion, crude protein. ash, crude fat and crude fiber, TSS, acidity, energy, b carotene, total sugars and ascorbic acid were higher in the seedless papaya except moisture which was in higher amount in seeded cultivar of papaya . High amounts of the edible portion, low content of peel and seeds indicates enormous potential of seedless papaya fruit for the commercial exploitation.

Multigrain biscuits were formulated by blending refined wheat flour with barley and buckwheat flours in the ratios of 100:0:0::WF:BF:BWF; :100:0::WF:BF:BWF; 80:20:0::WF:BF:BWF;70:20:10::WF:BF:BWF;60:20:20::WF:BF:BWF;50:20:30::WF:BF:BWF; 40:20:40::WF:BF:BWF; 30:20:50::WF:BF:BWF. Incorporation of buckwheat flour led to increase in mean calcium, iron and zinc contents of the biscuits. Among the blends the highest mean calcium of 68.96 mg/100g, iron of 9.22 mg/100g, zinc of 5.28 mg/100g were observed in treatment T8 (30:20:50::WF:BF:BWF). In terms of taste and flavour scores,T8 (30:20:50::WF:BF:BWF) was also adjudged the best treatment for the development of multigrain biscuits, whereas highest colour score of 8.05, texture score of 7.96 and overall acceptability score of 7.95 were observed in T1 (100:0:0::WF:BF:BWF).Biscuits were stored for a period of 90 days during which there was a significant decline in mineral contents as well as sensory attributes. Economically, the blended biscuits were found to be cheaper as compared to commercially available multigrain biscuits.

Authors: Nichols Tara
Published: June 2018

Pain is a multidimensional phenomenon which each person experiences in a different manner. However, practice stories delineate patterns in the lived pain experience that can Proaden health care professionals ‘perspective of care needed in the moment. Intentional analysis of practice stories about pain and discomfort led to a theoretical model to guide clinical practice, interventions, and research. Recurring patterns and themes from the stories supported a central phenomenon: dimensions of comfort and relationships between comfort, pain, and internal and external predictors. The author proposes a paradigm shift from pain to comfort, expressed in the Nichols-Nelson Theoretical Model of Comfort. The model, comprising seven dimensions of comfort that can be impacted by internal and external predictors, focuses on comfort, function, and safety, and on the clinician-patient relationship.

Published: June 2018

This paper focuses on characterizing the structural lineaments of the South of Côte d’Ivoire by using the morphostructural analysis of shading images technique (ENVISAT/ASAR and SRTM/DTM) and the geostatistical method for a better understanding of the fractured environment. This study is carried out on the basis of techniques of backscattered radar signal and the geomorphological analysis. This technical implementation significantly improves the mapping of the fractures of the study area. The number of fractures is estimated at 778. Direction N100-110° fractures are the longest and most representative. The fracture spacing fits better into the power law. The geostatistical analysis shows that the global fracturing variogram is spatially well structured. The fracture density in cumulative lengths is therefore identified with a regionalized variable. The fracturing map that is obtained represents a basic document in the fields of hydrogeology. This paper can be used for prospecting and production drilling campaigns and can be used also in geotechnics and mining prospecting.

Published: June 2018

Placenta previa is a placental location close to or over the internal cervical os. The aim of this study was to evaluate: risk factors, maternal and neonatal outcomes in patients with placenta previa. Material and methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of 38 women who have had a caesarean section for placenta previa at a tertiary referral University Hospital of Obstetrics and Gynecology “Koço Gliozheni” in Tirana, Albania. The period of this study was from January 2015 to March 2018. Maternal and neonatal data were obtained from medical records and the hospital database system. All cases of placenta previa were managed by medical team, obstetric consultants and all data were calculated with SPSS.20 program. Results: In total, 38 women with placenta previa were classified in three different types of placenta previa: Marginal placenta previa occurred in 16 women(42.1%), Complete placenta previa occurred in 19 women(50%) and with accreta placenta previa in 3 women(7.9%). The mean age of mothers was 30,61 years old, mode = 35, median = 30 and Std. deviation = 4.641 years. Conclusions: The prevalence rate of section caesarean and placenta previa is increased during the years. Several obstetrical factors have been found to be risk for placenta previa including: advancing maternal age, previous caesarean delivery, previous abortions, previous uterine surgery, multiparity, previous placenta previa, low socio-economic status, mother’s cigarette smoking /alcohol use. Placenta previa is associated with an increase in preterm birth and neonatal and maternal outcome. Other complications of pregnancy can be associated with placenta previa, but the majority of women deliver healthy babies.

To understand the use of remote sensors in forestry measurements, some of the most relevant definitions have been taken from a wide variety that currently exist, therefore, we will say that these generally play a predominant role in the Dasometry and that all The forest resource requires qualitative and quantitative information regarding the state of the forest and its evolution over time, with sampling that follows one of the existing methods. Historically, modern discipline arises with the invention of flight and the first photographs are obtained from a balloon in the years 1858 and 1859, in 1909 and on board the airplane the first photographic observation is acquired. The first aerial camera was developed in 1915 by J.T.C. Moore, starting the interesting way forward in the techniques of aerial photography using modified combat aircraft giving way to what was called systematic aerial photography in the late 50s. The development on a global scale of the first artificial satellites, allowed remote sensing in the middle of the 20th century on board the first satellite placed in orbit is that of the TYROS series in 1960 by NASA, becoming the pioneer in missions of meteorological observation, which also led to the appearance of satellite image processing, using mathematical procedures such as the Fourier transform. During the 70s missions were promoted with the objective of exploring the solar system and the moon; giving rise to the first spatial photographs taken by Alan B. Shepard rudimentary, Subsequently, Apollo-9 was used for the first multi-spectral experiment in which 4 Hasselblad cameras with different filters were installed. On July 23, 1972, the Landsat project appeared with the launch of the first satellite of the ERTS series (Earth Resources Technology Satellite). Google Earth in the 21st century, introduces online web services making remote sensing accessible to all audiences, with many techniques and processes that allow an image of the earth's surface to be obtained remotely captured by remote sensors located on satellites or airplanes that gather the spectral and spatial relations of objects. Interferometric radar synthetic aperture They are used to producing accurate digital models of large areas of land. LiDAR(An acronym for the English Light Detection and Ranging) is a monochrome active sensor, its mode of operation consists of measuring the distance between the sensor and the target. It is less expensive compared to manual inventory is multi-purpose, allows a complete survey of the study area, is more efficient than photogrammetry. The multi-spectral acquisition is based on the collection and analysis of areas or objects that emit or reflect radiation at a higher level than nearby objects. The quality of the information collected remotely, once the correction of errors through georeferencing with the help of specialized programs, will depend on their resolutions: spatial, spectral, radiometric and temporal.

Semana de Moda do UNISAL e feminismo: instrumento cultural de educação da sociedade acerca da valorização do humano
Authors: Polezi Daniel Basso , Dalcin Gabriela Gomes Soares , Pacheco Leticia Farias
Published: June 2018

A SMU (Semana de Moda do UNISAL) teve como tema o feminismo. Essa escolha democratica feita pelos alunos fortalece a necessidade de refletir sobre a temática, na qual a subvalorização das mulheres, a sobrevalorização das diferenças biológicas e a hierarquização das funções são vividas. Observam-se os problemas da violência doméstica e a necessidade da ética feminista de defender a singularidade humana. A educação deve promover a reflexão acerca desses problemas com trabalhos praticos envolvendo a divulgação, sabendo que a razão somente se desenvolve com plenitude na espécie, e não nas pessoas. O evento estimula com as práticas a vontade de fazer, criar e pensar as atividades voltadas a transformação social. Palavras-chave: Feminismo. Educação. Semana de moda.UNISAL Fashion Week and feminism: cultural instrument of society's education about the valorization of the humanAbstractThe SMU (UNISAL Fashion Week) talked about feminism. The students, democratic choice reinforces the need to reflect on the subject in Which the undervaluation of women, the overvaluation of biological differences and the hierarchy of functions are experienced. We observe the problems of domestic violence and the need for feminist ethics to defend human singularity. Education should promote reflection on these problems with practical work involving dissemination, knowing that reason only develops fully in the species as a whole. The event stimulates with the practices the will to create and to think the activities directed to the social transformation.Keywords: Feminism. Education.

Detetive paleontológico: o destino dos fósseis de plantas do Geopark Araripe como ferramenta para o ensino das Geociências
Authors: Nunes Luis Henrique Marins Nogueira , Pioker-Hara Fabiana Curtopassi
Published: June 2018

The goal of this work is to present a catalogue of fossil plants collected in Geopark Araripe and a educational game based on it. We indicated the macrofossils depositories of that Geopark, aiming to facilitate further Paleobotanic studies and to spread the scientific divulgation of this important paleoflora. We based the catalogue on bibliographic and scientific databases research. We found 140 specimens belonging to 34 clades (taxonomic groups). Most of the plant fossils collected in the mentioned Geopark is deposited at Natural History Museum of Berlin, followed by Institute of Geosciences of University of São Paulo. The catalogue was used to develop a “PERFIL®” style game, intended for elementary students. This game explores concepts of interpretation, logic, biology and Geosciences knowledge from a interdisciplinar perspective. This is achieved using hints to relate the fossil history with the taxon evolution and the museum where the fossil is deposited. Finally, we hope to contribute to divulgation and conservation of the botanical fossil records from that Geopark.
Parques patrimoniais (agrários, fluviais, geoparques): o território das águas
Authors: Ferrão André Munhoz de Argollo
Published: June 2018

Regional development projects in the twentieth century mainly favored efficiency and technical rationality, but did not consider local realities and the real needs of the communities involved. It is essential to know and respect the cultural aspects related to the use and management of water in every region and in every society, because the key issue of water resources management processes is not purely technical, but stems from ignorance of the socio-cultural dimension before, during and after the implementation of these projects and policies. This article seeks to associate the idea of heritage parks (agrarian, riverparks, geoparks), water and land systems, and culture as territorial planning instruments, under integrated watershed management programs.
Tafonomia em cavernas brasileiras: histórico e método de coleta de fósseis preservados em solo carbonatado
Authors: Vasconcelos André Gomide , Kraemer Bruno Machado , Meyer Karin Elise Bohns
Published: June 2018

Among fossiliferous quaternary deposits, caves are foremost in interest, in relation to richness as well as diversity of fossils preserved therein. The goals of this study are: (i) to review taphonomic research involving paleovertebrates collected in Brazilian caves, and (ii) to propose a controlled collection method for fossils in carbonate soils. The studies about Brazilian paleovertebrate taphonomy in caves began in the XIX century. Until the 1990s, they were conducted in low priority, restricted to taxonomic and paleoenvironmental aspects. After the 1990s, taphonomic studies became more relevant. They were then applied in quaternary deposits in many Brazilian states and used innovative techniques, e.g., chemical analysis and absolute dating methods. Fossil collecting demonstrated satisfactory results in carbonate soils. This technique safely removes bones without causing damage, and spatially reconstructs their location in the substrate, allowing detailed taphonomic interpretations.
Abordagens geocientíficas em estudos do meio no Ensino Fundamental I: construindo pontes para o ensino interdisciplinar
Authors: Salvador Livia A. , Bacci Denise de La Corte
Published: June 2018

The present research investigated the contribution of Geoscience Education in environment studies developed at Escola de Aplicação EA/FEUSP, São Paulo. The research focused on teacher training to overcome the traditional education model based on a fragmentation of knowledge, thus contributing to curriculum integration. Environment studies, field notebooks and the relationship of educational methodology and geosciences knowledge in the school’s curriculum were analyzed. The approaches carried out in the 3rd, 4th and 5th grades of elementary school contributed to reorganizing the Science curriculum, including a geoscientific approach. The results showed the importance of geoscience education and the possibility of changes in the curriculum in promoting a more contextualized and integrated education, starting from the basic levels, to meet the school’s pedagogical policy plan.

ResumenIntroducción: La etapa escolar representa un periodo de riesgo en el desarrollo de hábitos como el ocio digital sedentario, el cual favorece patologías futuras como la obesidad. La práctica de actividad física y el nivel de adherencia a la Dieta Mediterránea permiten su prevención, siendo esencial promover climas motivacionales hacia el deporte que favorezcan un estilo de vida saludable.Material y métodos: El presente estudio, realizado en una muestra de 692 escolares de la provincia de Granada, tiene como objetivo desarrollar un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales que permita analizar las relaciones entre clima motivacional, hábitos físico-saludables y capacidad aeróbica máxima. Como principales instrumentos se emplean los cuestionarios PMCSQ-2, KIDMED, PAQ-C y CERV.Resultados: Los resultados muestran una relación directa entre la práctica de AF y el Clima Tarea y Ego. La realización de AF correlacionó positivamente con el uso de videojuegos y con la potencia aeróbica máxima. El uso problemático de videojuegos se asoció positivamente con el Clima Ego y negativamente con el nivel de adherencia a la DM. Finalmente, el Clima Ego mostró una relación directa con el nivel de adherencia a la DM.Conclusión: La práctica de actividad física orientada a la tarea favorece la consecución de un estilo de vida activo, el cual mejora la capacidad aeróbica máxima, disminuye el ocio digital sedentario y se asocia a una mejor dieta. Las metas orientadas al ego también favorecen la calidad de la dieta, revelando la necesidad de promover una práctica físico-deportiva que favorezca motivaciones intrínsecas y extrínsecas.
