Exercise performance under different environmental conditions is also presented. Cardiovascular endurance and skeletal muscle force generating assessment and training techniques are performed. Resources used to study the effects of exercise on the human body include exercise physiology laboratories, computer simulations, and observations. The basic principles of human learning and behavior are explored across gender, culture, and life span. Task analyses are performed.
Basic research is related to applied efforts in educational technologies and behavior modification.
Program Standing and Psychology 101. 500. The underlying physical and physiological principles of massage, venous and lymphatic compression, traction, cryotherapy, heat, water, light, sound, and electrical current applications are introduced. The effects of the physical agent and electrotherapy applications are discussed across gender, race, and the life span and clinical problem solving is initiated. Instrumentation for evaluation and application of physical agents and electrical currents are studied and the physiological responses to their application are monitored. Discussions of reimbursement for application and the roles of various professionals in application are initiated.
