title: PHYSICAL ACTIVITY AND MOTOR COMPETENCE IN CHILDHOOD

description: ABSTRACT The objectives of this research were to verify the amount and intensity of physical activity performed by children of low socioeconomic level during weekdays and weekends, to assess motor competence indicators and to verify associations between these variables. A total of 176 children aged 3 to 6 years old participated in the study. They wore an accelerometer for seven consecutive days to measure physical activity engagement, while motor competence was measured by means of the Test of Gross Motor Development (TGMD-2). Boys spent more time on total physical activity than girls did (222.5 min x 204 min; p&lt;0.01) on weekdays. For both sexes, daily average time of total physical activity stood above international guidelines on physical activity (≥ 3h of physical activity per day), but there are indicators of delayed motor competence development, especially in object control skills. In conclusion, boys presented higher physical activity engagement indexes compared to girls and had greater motor competence; however, low values for association between physical activity and motor competence suggest that physical activity amount does not necessarily affect motor competence development.

title: PREDICTION OF CARDIORESPIRATORY FITNESS IN THE BRAZILIAN POPULATION AGED 20 TO 59 YEARS: A NON-EXERCISE MODEL APPROACH WITH SELF-REPORTED VARIABLES

description: ABSTRACT Unlike other more common health-related variables, cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) is not frequently measured in the general population. This omission characterizes a loss of relevant information. Thus, the objectives of the present study were: a) to characterize the CRF of the Brazilian population aged 20 to 59 years and to develop normative values using a non-exercise equation for predicting maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max), and b) to verify the association between lower levels of CRF and the prevalence of chronic diseases. A total of 32,531 individuals from the National Health Survey (NHS-IBGE-2013) composed the sample. Only self-reported variables were included in the equation of Wier et al. (2006): sex, age, physical activity level, and body mass index. The mean predicted VO2max was 44.6, 39.3, 34.8 and 30.6 ml/kg/min for men, and 34.5, 29.6, 25.4 and 21.1 ml/kg/min for women aged 20-29, 30-39, 40-49 and 50-59 years, respectively. The 20th and 80th percentiles were established as the extremes (very low and very high CRF). Participants with low fitness had a 33% higher chance of cardiovascular disease, an 89% higher chance of diabetes mellitus, and a 67% higher chance of hypertension, regardless of sex, age and presence of obesity, which seem to corroborate the quality of the equation.

title: BURNOUT INVENTORY FOR REFEREES (BIR): PSYCHOMETRIC PROPERTIES FOR BRAZILIAN SOCCER REFEREES

description: ABSTRACT The objective of the study is to analyze the psychometric measurements of the Burnout Inventory for Referees (BIR) offering validity evidence of the instrument through the analysis of its internal structure, estimating reliability indicators and comparing the total score of Burnout in referees and assistant referees. Participants were 284 soccer referees from six Brazilian states. The mean age was 31.3 years old (±6.1), being 255 male participants (89.7%), and the average experience time of the referees was 6.9 years (±5.5 years). The BIR consists of a questionnaire of 9 items, arranged on a 7 points likert scale. The result of the exploratory factor analysis pointed to one factor that explained 53.1% of the data variance. The Comparative Fit Index = 0.923 (95% CI 0.883-0.950) and Non-Normed Fit Index = 0.897 (95% CI 0.844-0.933) indicates suitability to a single-factor. There was no burnout difference between referees and assistant referees. The instrument presented a reliability index (McDonald´s omega) of 0.823. It is concluded that the factor structure of BIR´s version for Brazilian referees focuses on a single dimension that guided the development of the instrument. This result is also different from that found in other studies carried out previously using the instrument.

title: SELF-EFFICACY OF UNIVERSITY STUDENTS IN PHYSICAL EDUCATION: ASSOCIATION WITH PERSONAL, ACADEMIC AND PROFESSIONAL CHARACTERISTICS

description: ABSTRACT This study aimed to analyze the perceptions of self-efficacy (SE) of university students of Physical Education from a public institution of higher education, relating the perception to personal, academic and professional characteristics. A total of 246 students undergraduate in courses of Physical Education participated in the study. The results obtained in the characterization form and in the Self-efficacy Scale in Higher Education were analyzed in the SPSS program by means of descriptive statistics (absolute and relative frequencies, median) and inferential (Chi-square, Adjusted Residues, Cramer's V). In general, the evidence revealed associations between student (general, academic, regulatory, proactive, social, and management) dimensions and the receipt of research and monitoring scholarships (non-scholarship Male) and the presence of an employment relationship (yes&gt; no). The predominance of lower AE scores, regardless of the stage of the student's education, as well as the apparent lack of impact of extension scholarships on student AE levels indicate the need to deepen student development throughout the course , as well as the implementation of the projects and activities of the scholarship extension students in the investigated institution.

title: RELIABILITY AND SENSITIVITY OF COUNTERMOVEMENT JUMP-DERIVED VARIABLES IN DETECTING DIFFERENT FATIGUE LEVELS

description: ABSTRACT The aim was to verify the reliability and sensitivity of countermovement jump (CMJ) derived variables in detecting small, moderate and large changes and whether the capacity of CMJ-derived variables in detecting fatigue is dependent of the volume of the fatiguing exercise. Seventeen physically active men performed two fatigue protocols, on separate weeks, composed by continuous vertical jumps: short protocol (7 x 10 jumps) and long protocol (14 x 10 jumps). Jump height (JH), power output (PO), impulse (IMP) and vertical stiffness (KVERT) were measured during CMJ prior to and immediately after the fatigue protocols. Intraclass coefficient correlation, typical error, smallest worthwhile change and magnitude-based inference were analyzed. PO and JH presented excellent reliability and good sensitivity to detect small and medium changes, respectively. Negative effects of fatigue could be detected most likely by PO, regardless of fatiguing exercise volume. JH and IMP seem to be affected only after long protocol and KVERT only after short protocol. In conclusion, PO (peak and mean) is the better marker in CMJ with excellent reliability and sensibility, which allows detect even the small effects and differentiate the fatigue levels.

title: EFFECTS OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY ON THE MOOD STATES OF YOUNG STUDENTS

description: ABSTRACT The objective of this research was to analyze the effect of level of physical activity on perception of mood states among young students in the final grades of high school. The sample consisted of a total of 216 students, of both sexes, with an average age of 16.89±1.48 years. This cross-sectional research was characterized as descriptive and of a quantitative nature. For data collection, the Brunel Mood Scale (BRUMS) and the Habitual Physical Activity Questionnaire were used. Normality was verified through the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. Subsequently, inferential statistics for non-parametric data were applied, with the Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn’s Post-Hoc tests. Spearman’s correlation coefficient was used to check the relationship between level of physical activity and mood states. Significance was set at p&lt;0.05. From the results, we found that the perception of mood states reported by young students had significant differences when we consider this population’s level of physical activity. Young individuals classified as physically inactive reported a lower level of vigor, as well as a greater predisposition to negative mood aspects compared to physically active ones. In this case, physical activity can contribute to a better perception of psychological health.

title: MOOD STATE, MOTIVATION AND IMPULSIVENESS AMONG STUDENTS PARTICIPATING IN YOUTH SCHOOL GAMES

description: ABSTRACT The objective of the present study was to describe the mood state, motivation and impulsiveness of students participating in youth school games and to compare these variables between sexes. The research was cross-sectional, and the sample was composed of 147 students aged 12 to 17 years old (14.53±1.51 years; 51.70% of male participants). The following scales were used: 1) Brunel Mood Scale; 2) Motives for Physical Activity Measure - Revised, and 3) Impulsive Behavior Scale. For comparison between groups, the Mann-Whitney U test was used, and the effect size was calculated by means of Cohen’s d. The results showed that female students presented higher scores for anxiety, anger, confusion, depression, fatigue, lack of perseverance and premeditation. On the other hand, male students presented higher scores for appearance and health, seeming to be more motivated by extrinsic factors compared to females. Therefore, it is suggested that training strategies should be adapted by sex, in view of the respective characteristics.

title: LOCAL NORMS AND THE APPLICATION OF THE RIGHT TO SPORT BY MUNICIPALITIES FROM PIAUÍ

description: ABSTRACT In recent years, important studies on the participation of municipalities in the expenses with the Sport and Leisure Function (SLF) have been published in Brazil, but little is known regarding variables affecting its results. For that matter, the present study aimed to verify the existence of a norm, in the scope of the organic law, capable of explaining the behavior of expenses with the SLF by municipalities from Piauí. The sample was composed of 44,64% (100) of municipalities in Piauí (224). The majority of the sample does not acknowledge the subject as an important one among other private competences (94%) and with full effectiveness (96%). Unlike the behavior of these two legislative classes, out of all municipalities that have not presented norms for the dealing with the subject, 1/3 has expended for 15 years. The organic law was not a good predictor of the behavior of expenses with the SLF by municipalities from Piauí.

title: FROM SOCIAL INTERACTION TO AUTONOMY: LUDIC EXPERIENCES IN AQUATIC ENVIRONMENT FOR CHILDREN WITH AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER

description: ABSTRACT The present study aimed at assessing ludic experiences in aquatic environment facilitated by a non-governmental organization in Florianópolis, state of Santa Catarina, for the social interaction of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). This is a qualitative research based on three instruments: systematic observation, participant observation and semi-structured interviews. Five children with ASD, a Physical Education teacher, a psychologist, five Physiotherapy students and four family members participated in the study. The results showed that the aspects intrinsic to the ludic experiences worked as facilitators of social interaction between the children with ASD and the volunteers; three of these children showed interest to get involved and take part in games through social interaction. In conclusion, the ludic experiences enabled the children to cultivate verbal or gestural communication skills and build ties of trust with the volunteers and other children.
