title: PHYSICAL ACTIVITY AND PHYSICAL FITNESS AMONG FILIPINO UNIVERSITY STUDENTS

description: ABSTRACT O objetivo deste estudo foi examinar a atividade física e a aptidão física de estudantes universitários. Quatrocentos e setenta e quatro estudantes universitários aparentemente saudáveis (167 homens; 307 mulheres) responderam a um questionário de atividade física e foram submetidos a avaliações antropométricas e de aptidão física. Os resultados indicaram que os estudantes universitários do sexo masculino eram mais ativos fisicamente e fisicamente mais aptos do que as mulheres. Especificamente, os alunos do sexo masculino superaram os estudantes do sexo feminino nos seguintes testes: salto vertical, enrolamentos e produção aeróbica. Nenhuma diferença significativa entre os sexos foi encontrada na flexibilidade da parte superior do corpo. No entanto, as fêmeas apresentaram maior flexibilidade corporal menor em comparação aos machos. Eles também tinham maior gordura corporal que os machos. Além disso, maior atividade física foi associada com maior produção aeróbia, força da perna, resistência muscular e menor gordura corporal. O aumento da atividade física entre estudantes universitários é importante não apenas para promover a aptidão física, mas também para ajudar os alunos a administrar as demandas da vida universitária. Estratégias para promover o aumento da atividade física entre os estudantes universitários devem dar atenção especial aos estudantes do sexo feminino, pois eles são mais propensos a ser menos ativos do que seus colegas do sexo masculino

title: MULTICOMPONENT PHYSICAL ACTIVITY PROGRAM: STUDY WITH FALLER AND NON-FALLER OLDER ADULTS

description: ABSTRACT Falls are considered a public health problem and physical activity is an effective strategy to prevent fall. The goal of this study was to assess the effect of a physical activity program on physical fitness, fear of falling and quality of life in groups of faller and non-faller older adults. Study was conducted with participants of a multicomponent program of physical activity at a university in Brazil. The participants were assigned to: faller (n=25) and non-faller (n=133) groups. Participants were assessed using the Senior Fitness Test, Falls Efficacy Scale-International Brasil and The Medical Outcomes Study 36. Mean, standard deviation, Student “t” test and effect size were conducted. There was a difference between faller and non-faller individuals at LLFLEX (p=0,05), LLS (p=0,04), BA (p=0,03), FES (p=0,00), SF36 (p=0,00). The group of non-faller elderly people improved physical fitness. The pre test of the faller group showed increased fear of falling in comparison to the non-faller group. The physical activity program did not influence fear of falling in any of the groups. The quality of life showed better results in the non-faller group, with variation in some aspects between groups and over time. Elderly people with a previous history of falls need a differentiated physical program.

title: THE CONSTITUTION OF TEACHER IDENTIFICATION OF A FIRST DEGREE IN PHYSICAL EDUCATION IN THE PERSPECTIVE OF ITS STUDENTS

description: ABSTRACT This paper presents notes on the intervention actions of a first degree in Physical Education from a Public University of the state of Rio Grande do Sul / Brazil and its relation with the process of teacher identification in the perception of its students. Participated in the research, academics at the conclusion of the course, through discussions in a focus group. From the information collected, two categories of analysis emerged: facilitators and barriers in the process of teacher identification. From the findings of the research it can be concluded that this process is a reflection of the individuality of the subject, of participation in formative actions provided in the course of his initial formation and of his life experiences from the interpersonal relationships that motivate them to follow in the chosen profession. Therefore, the importance and necessity of evaluations and continuous reflections on the knowledge provided throughout the formative trajectory in the university to the encounter with the school.

title: TEACHING STRATEGIES ADOPTED IN COACH EDUCATION PROGRAMS: ANALYSIS OF PUBLICATIONS FROM 2009 TO 2015

description: ABSTRACT In order to overcome the limitations and negative perceptions often addressed to coach education programs, the sports coaching literature has offered important contributions for its improvement. Thus, through analyzing scientific articles published between 2009 and 2015, this study aimed to identify the teaching strategies adopted in small-scale, large-scale, and university-based programs. An automatic search for articles was conducted in the following databases: PUBMED, SCOPUS, Web of Science, PyscNET, and SPORTDiscus. Manual search was conducted in two non-indexed peer-reviewed journals. Afterwards, 731 articles were found and 16 were selected by applying the established criteria. The results indicated that most of the studies selected took place in a university-based context. In relation to the teaching strategies adopted, we verified a common intent to engage coaches in group discussions and reflection activities. Based on the articles analyzed, we suggest that the teaching strategies adopted in coach education programs indicate a trend towards learner-centered approaches (coach-centered), meeting the international guidelines for the improvement and effectiveness of these endeavors.

title: METHODOLOGICAL REVIEW OF MODEL-BASED COST-EFFECTIVENESS ANALYSES OF SCHOOL-BASED INTERVENTIONS TO INCREASE PUPILS’ LEVEL OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY

description: ABSTRACT A large number of school-based interventions promoting physical activity have been developed. Due to difficulties of obtaining observational data on long-term consequences such as effects and costs, modelling techniques offer opportunities to consider these. The aim of this study was to provide an overview of modelling approaches applied in economic evaluations of school-based physical activity programmes. We identify key methodological choices, challenges, and areas with a lack of evidence. A literature search was conducted to identify all relevant studies published within the last 10 years. The included studies were described with focus on main methodological aspects, including the costs, effects, and modelling techniques. Eight model-based economic analyses of school-based physical activity programmes were identified. The majority of these studies concluded that the interventions had a high probability of being cost-effective or even cost saving based on the national-specific thresholds. Although most studies did provide a description of the models, details on the methodological choices were not always transparent. Moreover, evidence on the effectiveness and inclusion of all relevant cost categories were found to be challenging. Different modelling methodologies have been used to assess the cost-effectiveness of school-based physical activity programmes. Only few studies have evaluated the long-term cost-effectiveness, and they have all challenging methodological issues.

title: METHODOLOGICAL PRINCIPLES FOR TEACHING OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION: THE BEGINNING OF A CONSENSUS

description: ABSTRACT The debate on teaching methods in the field of studies. Allied to this, the few productions must be diluted in different theoretical matrices, making difficult the discussions on the subject. Consequently, lack of consensus is one of the main difficulties in teaching. Thus, the present article aimed to identify and analyze the Methodological Principles for the teaching of school physical education from the Brazilian academic literature. A systematic review was carried out in the seven main national indicators on the subject, between 2004 and 2014. Original articles, review and research were considered that addressed the thematic teaching in education, totaling 79 articles. The analysis of the productions looked for surveys on the forms of teaching, independent of the theoretical reference used by the authors. As it is classified, it classifies the topics of the area in 11 Methodological Principles on teaching: Interaction; Contextualization; Dimensions of contents; Valuing Student Experiences; Diversity of experiences; Problematization; Autonomy and Creativity; Ludicidade; Understanding and Transferring Skills; Structural modification of content; Use of technological resources. The construction of such Principles is fundamental to the beginning of a certain degree of instruction in the classes of Physical Education school.

title: DERMATOGLYPHIC TRAITS OF BRAZILIAN GOLFERS

description: ABSTRACT Played all over the world, golf has gained popularity, for it is a sport that depends on individual abilities. For this reason the search for tools that aim to seek and guide its respective talented players has become very important. Therefore, this study had the objective of comparing the distribution of the dermatoglyphic indicators of high performance golfers and of a group control of non-athletes. The sample was composed of 46 individuals with paired age and gender, divided into two groups: the Group Golf (GG), composed of 23 golfers, and the Group Control (GC), composed of 23 individuals control randomly selected. The golfers, part of the Project Golf Brazil of the Brazilian Golf Confederation, were between 11 and 21 years old. The results demonstrated that the number of lines in the pattern was of six possible variables of fingerprint (MESQL1, MESQL2, MESQL4, MESQL5, SQTLE, SQTL) is significantly higher in the golfers (GG) when compared to the group control (GC). When observed the qualitative variables, i. e., the pattern type, significant diferences where observed between the groups, since the golfers (GG) presented more Radial Loops (RL) in MDT5 when compared to the group control (GC). The results found in this study demonstrated that the dermatoglyphic profile of high performance golfers differ from the non-athlete population.

title: ASSOCIATION BETWEEN FUNCTIONAL FITNESS AND QUALITY OF LIFE OF ELDERLY PARTICIPANTS OF A PROGRAM OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY OF CURITIBA, BRAZIL

description: ABSTRACT With the constant increase of the elderly population becomes necessary the discussion about the aspects related to the functional fitness, once this can interfere in the healthy aging. The objective of this paper was verifying the association of functional fitness with a quality of life in 1737 elderly women participating in a program of physical activity in Curitiba, Paraná, Brazil; was applied the Sociodemographic Questionnaire, the short version of International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), and the questionnaires of quality of life WHOQOL-BREF and OLD. Also, was applied the battery of tests of functional fitness Senior Fitness Test. Descriptive analysis of the variables and the ordinal logistic regression model was used to verify the associations between the variables of functional fitness and the domains of quality of life by means of software STATA 13.0 MP, with the significance of p&lt;0,05. The results indicated that elderly with adequate functional fitness showed more likely to be in the higher third of quality of life variables and their domains in the assessment of WHOQOL-BREF (ranging between 1,21 to 1,49) and WHOQOL-OLD (ranging between 1,18 to 1,49). The results pointed out that better functional fitness presents is positively associated with a perception positive of quality of life and their domains in the elderly women.
