Abstract:
AbstractNewborn characteristics, patterns of motoric and social behavioural development, and mother-infant relationships in free-ranging and semi-provisioned bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops sp.) are examined. Nine newborns were observed for 189 hours over the first 10 weeks of life. Newborn infants breathe more often than their mothers, and synchronize their breathing and swimming with her soon after birth, but show a gradual decline in synchrony as they age. Virtually all patterns of infant behaviour, mother-infant proximity, and spatial relationships with the mother changed as a function of infant age. Maternal activity, however, does not change over time, except that mothers decrease their role in maintaining proximity to their infants from the first month to the second month of infant life. Infants spend less time close to their mothers, less time echelon swimming (close, alongside the mother), and more time infant-position swimming (in contact under the mother) as they age. Infants spend more time traveling and socializing independently over time. They also separate from their mothers more often and for longer periods of time. Infants do not forage during the newborn period, but are observed 'practice foraging' by the end of the first month. Rubbing, petting, chasing, and displaying with other animals (including the mother) were common forms of socializing. Infants frequently initiate rubbing with their mothers, with particular focus on her head region. Infants typically associate with young females, adult females and other infants, but not with adult or subadult males. Developmental shifts and overall patterns are discussed in the context of the bottlenose dolphin's fission-fusion social organization and ecology. The effects of provisioning on dolphin behaviour are addressed.

Abstract:
Nowadays, infant swimming is a rather relevant topic. Swimming has a beneficial effect on the child’s body as a whole, strengthening its nervous system and improving sleep, appetite, and adaptive capacity, as well as stimulating metabolism.Aim. To study infant swimming as a progressive direction in improving child health from birth to 3 years old. The objective was to study the importance of infant swimming, consider its main techniques, highlight indications and contraindications, conduct and analyze a survey among parents on this topic. Early start of swimming significantly improves the child’s health, or reduces the current health problems. The skill of independent swimming is not the main goal. The main goal is effective hardening, strengthening immunity and health, correcting identified abnormalities and stimulating proper development.The division of the education period of infants into stages is conditional and depends on the individual characteristics of a child. It is important to observe the basic hardening principles: consistency and graduality.Also, we conducted a survey of parents to study and understand their opinions on teaching swimming. Relevant conclusions were drawn from the results. The relevance of this topic and the need for more active promotion of infant swimming is evidenced by the fact that 69% of parents surveyed consider it necessary to provide home courses on infant swimming. Also, 84% spoke in favor of the need to open specialized centers for teaching swimming for children from birth to 3 years old.

Abstract:
AbstractThe aim of study was to assess infants’ behaviour during routine swimming sessions using a naturalistic observation method. The study sample included 14 infants (13.7±7.5 months old) with previous aquatic experience. The frequency of occurrences per unit of time (session) in the different dimensions – infant’s motor behaviour and social-affective interaction – was registered over the course of two sessions by two independent experts. The behaviours most frequently observed were accompanied displacement (61.1%) and interaction with others (41.6%). Submersions or jumps represented only 8.4% of the session. Implementing a child-centred methodology leads to positive behaviours during this type of sessions, contributing to the child’s healthy development.

Abstract:
Nowadays activities with the involvement of both children and parents are becoming increasingly popular. There are a variety of such activities, but in this study we focus on infant floating. It is very important how parents feel themselves in such type of lessons and how they are able to perform the exercises with their infants independently and orient themselves in a specific aquatic environment. Parents’ competences in infant floating on the whole are often characterised by their insufficient knowledge, skills and practical abilities in maintaining correct and proper behaviour in the aquatic environment. Therefore, the aim of our study is to explore and analyse the assessment of parents’ competences in infant floating. Based on the research results it would be possible to develop a more accurate model for the enhancement of the parents’ competences required for infant floating and put forward recommendations for improving parents' competences. An assessment survey of the parents' competences in infant floating was conducted from the beginning of September 2017 until the end of October. 33 swimming experts participated voluntarily in the assessment of parents’ competences in infant floating. The mean, standard deviation and mode was used to process the numerical data gathered from the responses. The content and statements put forward in the survey questionnaire regarding parents’ competences in infant floating were based on scientific concepts. The results of the survey of swimming experts indicate that all of the components proposed by the authors that influence parents’ competences in infant floating play a significant role. It could also be surely concluded that at present, the overall level of parental competence in infant floating in the opinion of experts is average. In general, all the surveyed swimming experts are of the opinion that parents should definitely supplement or acquire additional knowledge, skills and abilities in order to increase their level of competences in infant floating in order to be able to effectively apply these competences during independent lessons with their infants.

Abstract:
Background: Cleaning and disinfecting agents are widely used in modern life, in homes, schools, public places, and workplaces as well as in recreational facilities such as swimming pools. Use has been for sanitizing purposes and to assist in reduction of infection as well as for deodorizing purposes. However, adverse respiratory effects have been associated with use of cleaning products ranging from effects in infancy and early childhood up to adults at home and work. Methods: This review summarizes recent published literature on the effects of cleaning agents used pre-natally, in childhood and adult life, at home, work, and in swimming pools. Results: Several studies have indicated that there is an increased risk of developing asthma among adults with frequent exposure to cleaning products at work and in the home. Potential mechanisms include sensitization and respiratory irritant effects. Exposure to irritant chlorine by-products from swimming pools have also been associated with respiratory effects and increased risk of asthma. Potential effects from maternal exposures to cleaning products on infants, and effects on early childhood atopy are less clear. Conclusions: Exposure to cleaning agents increases relative risks of asthma among workers, and adults using these agents in the home. Risks are also increased with exposure to chlorinated by-products from swimming pools, both in adults and children. Further studies are needed to understand the mechanisms of these associations.

Abstract:
Estudos iniciais sobre a aquisição da locomoção aquática por bebês identificaram uma seqüência ordenada de padrões de movimento ao longo do primeiro ano de vida. A explicação dada a respeito dessa constatação sustenta que isso se deva a alterações no controle motor causado pela maturação do sistema nervoso. Estudos posteriores têm contestado a existência dessa seqüência predeterminada de padrões, sugerindo uma menor predisposição do organismo e uma maior influência ambiental na aquisição desses comportamentos. O presente projeto visou investigar o efeito da estimulação sistemática do reflexo de nadar no comportamento de bebês na locomoção aquática no primeiro ano de vida. Participaram do experimento dezeseis bebês, com idade media de quatorze semanas, divididos em dois: grupo experimental e controle. O registro dos dados foi feito com uma câmera (Panasonic Camerascope S-VHS Movie modelo AG 456) e a identificação e quantificação dos movimentos foram feitas mediante a análise quadro a quadro utilizando-se do software APAS 2000 (Ariel System). Consideraram-se os movimentos do corpo todo ou de partes e que durassem pelo menos dois segundos. Os resultados obtidos permitiram identificar diferenças significativas na duração do comportamento predominante do mergulho ventral autônomo entre os grupos nos componentes, cabeça, braços, pernas e tronco em nível de 5%. Nas outras demais posições experimentais os resultados obtidos não foram totalmente conclusivos. O que nos leva a afirmar que houve efeito de prática entre os grupos principalmente para a posição experimental do mergulho ventral autônomo
Early studies about acquisition of swimming behavior in infants identified an ordered sequence of movement patterns span the first year of life. The explanation attributed to this fact defends that it happens due to changes in motor control caused by the maturation of nervous system. Nevertheless, it has been questioned, suggesting a smaller predisposition of the organism in the skills acquisition process, suggesting a bigger environmental influence in the acquisition of this behavior. In this way, the present study aimed testing the effects of practice on elementary swim patterns. For this, sixteen full-terms, fourteen weeks ear old infants, were recruited from the Londrina State University community in Londrina. The infants were randomly assigned to one of two groups. The experimental group was taken to the aquatic environment twice a week for a period of seven consecutive months and received thirty minutes of stimulation of swimming patterns each day. The control group received no systematic stimulation. Both groups were taken to aquatic environment twice a month and filmed for a period of fifteen minutes in each experimental position. The movements made by all the body or the segments, during more than two consecutive seconds, were considered to this analysis. From the data gathered it was possible to identify some behavioural patterns regarding to the action of the head, the limbs and the trunk. A planned comparison confirmed that the duration of the most frequent movement of the experimental group was longer than that of the control group. Those results suggest that the effects of practice can provide variations on some swimming behavior

Abstract:
A natação para bebês e crianças de até 2 anos de idade é a atividade física mais comumente realizada por essa população em todo mundo. Tal sucesso se deve aos possíveis benefícios que essa prática pode trazer para o desenvolvimento infantil. Contudo, a investigação dos efeitos da natação sobre essa população ainda são incipientes. No que concerne ao método, há carência de um protocolo padronizado para observação e registro do comportamento do bebê e da criança no meio líquido. Há diferentes métodos de pegadas, de posturas e de posicionamento descritos comprometendo a confiabilidade das investigações. O objetivo do presente estudo foi desenvolver um aparato de suporte à locomoção aquática de bebês e de crianças de 3 a 24 meses de idade. Buscou-se um aparato que permitisse um controle na forma de sustentação do bebê e que ao mesmo tempo permitisse e discriminasse as ações motoras demonstradas pelos participantes. O desenvolvimento do aparato consistiu de: I. Revisão de literatura para identificar os comportamentos a serem facilitados com o aparato; II. Elaboração do memorial descritivo do aparato com os propósitos a que se destina, suas características e especificidades técnicas, simulações de sua utilização etc.; III. Construção do protótipo do aparato e sua testagem; IV. Testagem de sua funcionalidade. A funcionalidade do aparato foi analisada por duas formas. 1- Pela apreciação dos peritos a partir dos filmes das sessões de testes com os bebês. Participaram cinco peritos com formação no estudo do comportamento motor (2 doutores e 3 mestres) e com experiência sobre o nadar de bebês e crianças. 2- Pela qualificação e quantificação das ações dos bebês e das crianças no uso do aparato. Dez indivíduos com idades variando entre 5 e 22 meses participaram das sessões de testes. Todos foram nascidos a termo e com o APGAR de oito ou mais no primeiro e no quinto minuto. Os peritos foram unânimes em considerar que o aparato funcionou e que está adequado ao uso que se destina (principalmente para pesquisas). Houve restrição sobre a segurança do bebê, particularmente no bebê mais jovem, apontada por dois peritos que foi prontamente corrigida no aparato. Todos os indivíduos puderam utilizar o aparato manifestando variabilidade intra e inter-individual. As análises das ações indicaram que o aparato deu apoio suficiente para a locomoção sem restringir a diversidade de padrões
Swimming for babies and children up to 2 years of age is the most commonly performed physical activity for this population worldwide. This success is due to the possible benefits that this practice can bring to their development. However, the research on the effects of swimming on this population are still incipient. Regarding the method, there is a lack of a standardized protocol for observing and recording behavior of babies and children in water. There are different techniques for holding babies, positioning them and postures, though none have been subject of investigation thus compromising research reliability. The aim of this study was to develop an apparatus to support aquatic locomotion of infants and children, 3-24 months of age. We sought an apparatus to allow a standardized holding technique to sustain the baby as well as to give enough freedom for the participants to experiment and show different motor actions. The development of the apparatus consisted of: I. Literature review to identify the behaviors to be \"facilitated\" by the apparatus; II. Elaboration of a descriptive memorial for the apparatus, describing its intended purpose, its technical features, its use and simulations etc.; III. Constructing and testing the apparatus; IV. The testing of its functionality in two ways. 1 - Expert assessment of the apparatus from video recordings of testing sessions with babies. There were five experts on motor behavior (two PhDs and three Masters) and baby swimming. 2 Description of babies action while in the use of the apparatus. Ten individuals with ages varying between 5 to 22 months took part in the testing sessions. They were all full term born and got 8 or more on the APGAR done in the first and fifth minute. The experts were unanimous in considering the apparatus functional and suitable for its intended use (research mostly). There was a concern on babiessafety, particularly for the young ones, made by two experts which has been promptly corrected in the apparatus. All babies and children could use the apparatus when intra and inter-individual variability were manifested. The analysis of their actions indicated that the apparatus gave sufficient support for their locomotion without restraining them the diversity of patterns

Os objetivos desta pesquisa, descritiva com delineamento transversal, foram verificar como ocorre o processo de formação de jovens nadadores brasileiros, sob diferentes aspectos: organização, estrutura e quantificação do treinamento; especialização do atleta; seleção de talentos e as funções da competição nas categorias de base na perspectiva do Treinamento a Longo Prazo - TLP, e ainda propor um modelo de TLP para a natação brasileira. Foram selecionados nove clubes classificados entre os 10 primeiros do \"Ranking\" pela Confederação de Desportos Aquáticos Brasileiros - CBDA, no mês de julho de 2005. Os técnicos foram entrevistados quanto aos aspectos do treinamento de formação nas categorias de base na natação: mirim, petiz, infantil, juvenil e júnior (de 08 a 17 anos). As entrevistas foram gravadas, transcritas e analisadas de acordo com o método de análise de conteúdo proposto por Bardin (1977). Os resultados revelaram que os clubes brasileiros seguem o modelo por categorias de competições propostas pela CBDA. Alguns aspectos importantes foram evidenciados, tais como: a especialização precoce, o direcionamento para competições de alto nível em curto prazo. Sendo assim, os jovens nadadores são pressionados para que realizem resultados ótimos. O TLP não é realizado dentro das estruturas dos clubes brasileiros entrevistados. Formulou-se um modelo de TLP para a natação brasileira. Como sugestão, recomenda-se que os dirigentes e técnicos devem realizar maiores reflexões sobre o sistema de treinamento infanto-juvenil e de competição de natação no país
This cross-designed and descriptive research meant to verify the process of formation of young Brazilian swimmers under different aspects: organization, structure and load of training; the athlete\'s specialization; selection of talents and the functions of the competition in base categories under the perspective of Long-Term Training - LTT. It also meant to propose a LTT model for the Brazilian swimming. Nine clubs ranking top 10 by the CBDA - the Brazilian Confederation of Aquatic Sports were selected in the month of July 2005. The coaches were interviewed regarding the training aspects for the formation of base categories swimmers aged 08 to 17. The interviews were recorded, transcribed and analyzed according to the method proposed by Bardin (1977). The results revealed that the Brazilian clubs follow the model of categories as proposed by CBDA. Such relevant aspects as early specialization and the orientation to short-term achievement to high level competitions were evidenced. Thus, young swimmers are pushed to achieve optimal results. The Brazilian clubs, subject of this research, do not hold their LTT inside their facilities. A LTT model was prepared for the Brazilian swimming. It is suggested that club directors and coaches reflect upon their infant-juvenile training and swimming competitions nationwide

Abstract:
Este estudo teve como propósito refletir acerca dos efeitos motores e comportamentais que as Vivências Aquáticas para Bebês poderiam provocar em seus participantes. As publicações sobre a primeira infância apresentam uma tendência a tratar o desenvolvimento infantil predominantemente sobre aspectos biológicos, desconsiderando a relevância das relações intra e interpessoais e com o meio. Pouco se tem publicado sobre os processos pedagógicos lúdicos na água, onde se intenciona trazer a tona os prazeres e desprazeres dos participantes. O propósito inicial era saber dos efeitos motivacionais que poderiam ser trabalhados no meio aquático, através de estratégias de intervenção pedagógica. Foi um desafio encontrar um caminho para organizar as informações que o estudo se propunha, por entender-se que o tema é polêmico e requer investigação científica na construção deste conhecimento, já que há um aumento na prática de atividades aquáticas com bebês que gera em alguns casos expectativa de se iniciar cada vez mais cedo. A metodologia utilizada configurou-se como qualitativa, optando-se pela pesquisa descritiva, considerada como o método que melhor se ajustava ao estudo em questão. Contou com seis participantes, formados pelo bebê e seu(s) cuidador(es), que em todos os casos tratava-se do pai ou da mãe (pais-bebê). Os instrumentos utilizados na coleta de informações foram: a observação; registro fotográfico; registro em video-tape; a análise de documentários gravados em vídeo; e a entrevista. A análise e interpretação das informações foram realizadas a partir de cinco categorias que surgiram das entrevistas e depoimentos cedidos pelos pais. São elas: “A motivação de buscar as Vivências Aquáticas para Bebês”; “O Meio e as Atividades Aquáticas”; “Reações Comportamentais e Motoras”; “Processo de Aprendizagem”; “Relações de Dependência e Autonomia”. O estudo põe em evidência que esta estratégia pedagógica de intervenção pela via corporal no meio aquático, que utilizou como âncora pedagógica atividades lúdicas e de sensibilização, serviu de alavanca para desencadear o processo de maturação biológica e comportamental dos participantes do estudo, demonstrando que a idade cronológica não é fator limitador no processo de desenvolvimento dos bebês no meio aquático.
This study aimed at evaluating the motor and behavioral effects of aquatic experiences over its participants. The available literature about early infancy tends to focus on biological aspects and neglects the relevance of personal interaction among group members as well as the interaction between the group and the water environment. Very little material has been published on ludic, pedagogic procedures in the water which analyzes likes and dislikes of participants. The basic purpose was to investigate the motivational effects that could be used in the water environment by means of pedagogic intervenience strategies. Finding a way to organize all the information collected was a challenging task since this is an issue which raises controversy and requires scientific investigation in order to build such know-how, not to mention the increased demand in aquatic activities with babies which sometimes leads to the expectation of getting started earlier and earlier. A qualitative methodology and descriptive approach were judged to be the most appropriate for this study. Six babies with their respective keepers took part in the experiment. For each baby the keeper was always a parent. In order to collect information the following were used: observation; photographic record; video-tape recording; analysis of video-taped documentaries; and an interview. The analysis and interpretation of information were performed with basis on five categories defined by the interview and parents’ statements. Namely: “Motivation to pursue aquatic experiences for babies”; “The environment and aquatic activities”; “Behavioral and motor reactions”; “Learning process”; “Dependence and autonomy relations”. The study makes evident the fact that this pedagogical strategy, based on physical activity in the water environment which used ludic and sensitivity development activities as a pedagogical approach, triggers the process of biological and behavioral maturation of participants and demonstrates that chronological age is not a limiting factor in the process of development of babies in the water environment.

Abstract:
The Burnout syndrome is a topic that is currently presented as a major problem that affects the labor activity in several areas, including athletes. Known as syndrome of physical and psycho-social breakdown has become the object of study Psychology. However, in Sport Psychology is little explored, and there is little literature on the subject, which makes the knowledge and understanding of the syndrome. This research it is a descriptive study of transversal and quantitative approach, which was attended by 194 athletes from different states, of both sexes, with an age range of 14 to 17 years, swimmers and volleyball. To collect data we used two instruments: one demographic data questionnaire and the Burnout Questionnaire for Athletes - BQA. Data analysis consisted of descriptive analysis and comparison of variables, sex, sport, education, sports injury, age and time as a federated athlete, using the nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis and Mann Whitney. The results showed that in general, the athletes present in the study were not in a risk state for Burnout, with an overall average of 2.09 points corresponding to a feeling frequency between Seldom and Sometimes. Concerning the size Physical and Emotional Exhaustion in variable sport, there were differences between them, which showed statistically significant (p = ˂0,001), even with averages of 1.88 (swimming) and 1.58 (volleyball), respectively related to a frequency between Hardly Ever and Rarely. The size Reduced Sense of Accomplishment showed higher rates in all variables, with a frequency of feelings related to Rarely to Sometimes average ranging from 2.50 to 2.59. We conclude that the juvenile athletes swimming and volleyball did not show a frequency of high feelings, referring to Burnout.
A Síndrome de Burnout é um tema que se apresenta atualmente como um dos grandes problemas que afeta a atividade laboral nas mais diversas áreas, inclusive em atletas. Conhecida como Síndrome do esgotamento físico-psíquico-social tem se tornado objeto de estudo da Psicologia. Contudo, na Psicologia do Esporte é pouco explorada e, são escassas as publicações sobre o tema, o que dificulta o conhecimento e a compreensão da Síndrome. Esta pesquisa trata-se de um estudo descritivo, de caráter transversal e com abordagem quantitativa, da qual participaram 194 atletas de diferentes estados, de ambos os sexos, com uma faixa etária de 14 a 17 anos, praticantes de natação e voleibol. Para a coleta de dados foram utilizados dois instrumentos: um questionário de dados sociodemográficos e o Questionário de Burnout em Atletas QBA. A análise dos dados constituiu-se da análise descritiva e comparação das variáveis, sexo, modalidade esportiva, escolaridade, lesão esportiva, idade e tempo como atleta federado, utilizando-se dos testes não paramétricos de Kruskal-Wallis e Mann Withney. Os resultados obtidos demonstraram que de maneira geral, os atletas presentes no estudo, não se encontravam em um estado de risco para o Burnout, com uma média geral de 2,09 pontos que correspondem, a uma frequência de sentimentos entre raramente e algumas vezes. Em relação à dimensão Exaustão Física e Emocional, na variável modalidade esportiva, houve diferenças entre as mesmas, que se apresentou estatisticamente significativa (p=˂0,001), mesmo com médias de 1,88 (natação) e 1,58 (voleibol), respectivamente referentes a uma frequência entre quase nunca a raramente. A dimensão Reduzido Senso de Realização apresentou maiores índices em todas as variáveis analisadas, apresentando uma frequência de sentimentos referentes a raramente a algumas vezes, média que variou entre 2,50 a 2,59. Conclui-se que os atletas juvenis de natação e voleibol não apresentaram uma frequência de sentimentos alta, referente ao Burnout.

Swimming for babies is an activity which is rich in stimulus towards the growing capabilities and motor, cognitive, affective and social abilities of the baby. When directed towards babies and children who have special needs, the activities in a liquid environment are important aids in the search of a higher potential of development. This study had the general objective of verifying the effect of stimulation in aquatic environment (swimming) on the development of babies with special needs. The specific objectives were: to systematize, describe and apply the proposal of pedagogical intervention, having the aquatic environment as a facilitator and evaluate the evolution in the development of babies in aquatic environment in the periods before and after intervention. Six babies with special needs (Down Syndrome, Visual Impairment, Cerebral Palsy, Hydrocephaly and Neuropsychomotor Development Delay) of both genders and between 17 to 33 months old participated in the study. A field research of exploratory character with experimental outlining was used. The instrument of data collection was a Protocol of Task Analysis developed by the researchers and containing 18 items. After initial evaluation, an intervention lasting 15 weeks, during which there were 27 sessions, was carried out. The swimming classes for babies (intervention sessions) took place twice a week for 45 minutes each. All the evaluations and intervention sessions were systematically registered through filming. The data obtained in the periods before and after intervention through the instrument aforementioned were analyzed by three researchers/observers. An analysis of the performance of each participant as well as the average of the group, comparing the initial and final scores obtained by the group in each of the 18 items evaluated by the instrument have been done with the purpose of verifying which aspects have or have not been influenced by the proposed intervention. After the analysis of the data, it was possible to observe that the 6 babies presented positive and statistically significant changes in their development. Among the aspects analyzed by the swimming program that presented statistically significant changes are: reaction of the baby at the border of the pool, reaction of the baby at entering the pool, articular mobility, body scheme notion, respiratory control in liquid environment, grasping of objects, movement of arms and legs, maintenance of erect posture and diving. It has been concluded that the stimulation program in liquid environment (swimming) has had a positive influence on several aspects of the development of the babies with special needs.
A natação para bebês é uma atividade rica em estímulos voltados à ampliação das capacidades e habilidades motoras, cognitivas, afetivas e sociais do bebê. Quando direcionadas aos bebês e às crianças que apresentam necessidades especiais, as atividades em meio líquido são importantes aliadas na busca de um maior potencial de desenvolvimento. Este estudo teve como objetivo geral verificar o efeito de um programa de estimulação aquática (natação) no desenvolvimento de bebês com necessidades especiais. Os objetivos específicos foram: sistematizar, descrever e aplicar o programa de estimulação aquática, tendo o meio líquido como facilitador; identificar os aspectos do programa de estimulação aquática que promoveram ou não mudanças no desenvolvimento dos bebês com necessidades especiais; e avaliar a evolução no desenvolvimento de bebês no meio líquido nos períodos pré e pósintervenção. Participaram deste estudo seis bebês com necessidades especiais (Síndrome de Down, Deficiência Visual, Paralisia Cerebral, Hidrocefalia e Atraso no Desenvolvimento Neuropsicomotor) integrantes do Projeto de Extensão Atividades Físicas, Esportivas e de Lazer Adaptadas a Pessoas com deficiências (PROAFA/UFSCar - Brasil), de ambos os sexos, com faixa etária entre dezessete e trinta e três meses. Neste estudo foi utilizada uma pesquisa de campo, de caráter exploratório, com delineamento experimental. O instrumento de coleta de dados empregado foi o Protocolo de Análise do Desenvolvimento de Bebês no Meio Líquido, desenvolvido pela pesquisadora, contendo dezoito itens. Após a avaliação inicial, foi realizada uma intervenção com duração de quinze semanas, em que ocorreu um total de vinte e sete sessões. As aulas de natação para bebês (sessões de intervenção) foram realizadas duas vezes por semana, com duração de quarenta e cinco minutos cada uma. Todas as avaliações e as sessões de intervenção foram sistematicamente registradas por meio de filmagem. Os dados obtidos nos períodos pré e pós-intervenção, por meio do instrumento em questão, foram analisados por três pesquisadores/observadores. Foi realizada uma análise do desempenho de cada um dos participantes, bem como da média do grupo, comparando-se os dados obtidos no pré e pós teste; além disso, foram comparadas as médias inicial e final dos escores obtidos pelo grupo em cada um dos dezoito itens avaliados pelo instrumento, com o intuito de verificar quais os aspectos que foram ou não influenciados pela intervenção proposta. Após a análise dos dados, foi possível observar que 100% da amostra apresentou mudanças positivas e estatisticamente significantes em seu desenvolvimento. Dentre os aspectos analisados pelo programa de natação que apresentaram mudanças estatisticamente significantes estão: reação do bebê na borda da piscina; reação do bebê ao entrar na piscina; mobilidade articular, noção de esquema corporal; domínio respiratório no meio líquido; apreensão dos objetos pelo bebê; movimentação de braços e pernas; manutenção da postura ereta e mergulho. Concluiu-se que o programa de estimulação no meio aquático (natação) exerceu influência positiva em vários aspectos do desenvolvimento de bebês com necessidades especiais.

Abstract:
This diploma thesis deals with bathing children, especially infants and toddlers, in indoor swimming pools. It focuses primarily on the potential health and hygiene risks of this activity. It is divided into theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part provides a deeper insight into the field of artificial swimming pools, is dedicated to current as well as first ever legislation, in more detail is dedicated to the hygienic requirements for swimming pools according to Decree no. 238/2011, as amended; describes the process of pool water treatment, provides an overview of possible types of disinfecting pool water treatment and comparison within the advantages and disadvantages, describes indicators of water quality and their importance, and mostly focuses on hygienic and health risks in connection with the visit of indoor pools. Gives examples from practice (epidemic), mentions the most common sources of pollution including the most common violations of visitors. The theme of hygienic and health risks is then divided according to the origin of risk to the microbiological part (dedicated to infectious agents), to chemical part (disinfection by products) and to the part of accident risks and risks associated with the water temperature. The thesis is also keenly interested in the views of experts for bathing children, especially infants and toddlers, in indoor artificial pools. Research in the practical part was made by a qualitative method using secondary data analysis (operational and guest regulations, operational logbooks for 2015, the results of laboratory analysis of pool water for the 2015, laws and decrees), participant observation and interviews. The research was conducted in indoor swimming pools in towns Jihlava and Prachatice, which run swimming courses for infants and toddlers as well as for older children. For research, I set the following goals: C1: To monitor the microbiological and the physical-chemical indicators of the pool water quality in relation to Decree no. 238/2011 Coll., as amended, in pre-selected artificial indoor pools during annual operation. C2: To focus on the health status of children (infants and toddlers) in swimming classes. C3: To find out the knowledge and attitudes of visitors (parents) and trainers in the field of hygiene principles for swimming in artificial pools and risks arising from them. Based on the targets I have set the following research questions: V1: Are the monitored microbiological and physico-chemical water quality limits exceeded, and if so, which and under what circumstances? V2: What health problems, if they occured, did infants and toddlers after regular visits of indoor pools have ? V3: Are these children suffering from allergic diseases, and if so, from what type? V4: What knowledge and attitudes do visitors (parents) and lecturers in the field of hygienic principles for swimming in artificial pools and potential risks have? This thesis may serve the general public to extend the knowledge in the field of bathing (not only the children) in artificial pools and to give a view on this subject from different perspectives, as well as operators of swimming pools as an information material.

A presente Dissertação visa descrever as atividades elaboradas e desenvolvidas no âmbito do Estágio em Treino Desportivo – Especialização em Treino de Jovens, da Faculdade de Educação Física e Desporto da Universidade Lusófona de Humanidades e Tecnologias, que decorreram na GesLoures com um grupo de nadadores infantis durante a época 2014/2015. A estruturação deste trabalho pretende expor detalhadamente toda a fundamentação e procedimentos da prescrição e controle do treino e competição. Sendo o trabalho aeróbio a principal preocupação na preparação dos jovens nadadores, os grandes volumes de treino com baixa intensidade, tradicionalmente dominam os programas de treino, contrariando o modelo competitivo em que estão envolvidos na sua participação na natação pura desportiva, com provas maioritariamente de curta duração e grande intensidade. Este estudo pretendeu avaliar a aplicação de um modelo de preparação de jovens nadadores, com o aumento da intensidade média dos treinos, com redução do volume e os seus efeitos nos resultados competitivos e nas capacidades físicas necessárias para garantirem a carreira futura. A aplicação deste planeamento resultou em progressões médias de 10,92% nos resultados competitivos, valor superior ao expetado para esta faixa etária na natação pura desportiva.
This dissertation aims to describe activities carried out under the Internship in Sports Training - Specialization in Youth Training from Faculdade de Educação Física e Desporto da Universidade Lusófona de Humanidades e Tecnologias, which took place in GesLoures with a group of young swimmers during the 2014/2015 period. All procedures of training and competition prescription were exhaustively described in this report structure. The main concern in preparation of young swimmers is the aerobic work. High volumes of training and low intensity traditionally dominate the training program, contrary to competitive model in which swimmers are involved with mostly short duration and great intensity competitions. This study aimed to evaluate the application of young swimmers preparation model, increasing average intensity of training, reducing volume and study the effects on competitive results and on physical capabilities required to ensure their future career. The application of this planning has resulted in an average 10,92% increase progression within the competitive results, which is higher than expected for this age group in swimming.

A presente Dissertação tem como objetivo apresentar e analisar as atividades realizadas e desenvolvidas no âmbito do Estágio em Treino Desportivo – Especialização em Treino de Jovens, da Faculdade de Educação Física e Desporto da Universidade Lusófona de Humanidades e Tecnologias, que decorreram no Clube de Natação Colégio Vasco da Gama (CNCVG) com um grupo do escalão de infantis durante a época 2015/2016. Para além da assessoria no enquadramento do processo de treino da globalidade da equipa de Infantis, o presente relatório de estágio centrou-se, predominantemente, no trabalho realizado de modo completamente autónomo: acompanhamento do processo de treino técnico de três nadadores, integrados na equipa de infantis do CNCVG. Para a deteção de erros recorreu-se à observação diferida e sistemática, através da recolha de imagens vídeo em duplo meio, as quais foram tratadas através da utilização de fichas de observação referentes às quatro técnicas de nado - mariposa, costas, bruços e crol. A nível técnico os objetivos inicialmente definidos para estágio foram cumpridos, uma vez que na primeira observação da época foram detetados 69 erros e na última apenas 24, o que se traduz numa evolução de 65%. Esta evolução, em paralelo com os treinos efetuados e a natural maturação dos atletas, contribuíram significativamente para a evolução positiva dos tempos efetuados pelos três atletas em análise. Esta análise e intervenção permitiu obter um conhecimento mais abrangente da organização, gestão e planeamento dos treinos de uma equipa de natação e possibilitou adicionar aos conhecimentos teóricos existentes, um conjunto de vivências proporcionadas pelo contacto com as atletas em observação. Para além disso permitiu efetuar uma análise critica com base nos conhecimentos adquiridos ao longo do percurso académico.
This dissertation aims to present and analyze the activities carried out and developed within the scope of the Training in Sports - Specialization in Youth Training, from Faculdade de Educação Física e Desporto da Universidade Lusófona de Humanidades e Tecnologias, which took place at the Colégio Vasco da Gama Swimming Club (CNCVG), with a group of young swimmers during the 2015/2016 season. In addition to assistant coach on the overall training of the children’s team, the present internship report focused predominantly on the work carried out in a completely autonomous way: monitoring the technical training process of three swimmers, integrated in the CNCVG’s team. In order to detect the errors, we used the delayed and systematic observation, through the collection of video images in double environment, which were treated through the use of checklists referring to the four swimming techniques – butterfly, backstroke, breaststroke and crawl. At the technical level the goals initially defined for the stage were fulfilled, once there were 69 errors detected in the first observation period and only 24 in the last one, which represents a 65% evolution. This evolution, in parallel with the training performed and the natural maturation of the athletes, contributed significantly to the positive evolution of the performance of the three athletes under analysis. This analysis and intervention allowed the obtention of a more comprehensive knowledge of the organization, management and planning of the training of a swimming team and made possible to add a set of experiences provided by the contact with the observing athletes to the existing theoretical knowledge. In addition, it also allowed to develop a critical analysis based on the knowledge acquired along the academic journey.

Abstract:
Este relatório pretendeu demostrar a observação, análise e intervenção, ao longo do estágio, no planeamento de uma época desportiva. O estágio estava integrado no Mestrado em Treino Desportivo, especialidade em Natação e foi realizado no Grupo Desportivo de Sesimbra, na época 2014/2015, ao escalão de Infantis. Durante uma época 3 nadadoras foram acompanhadas em todos os treinos e competições. Este estágio foi importante porque permitiu a integração e participação no contexto profissional, mostrando, na realidade, o trabalho que um treinador tem ao longo de uma época desportiva para proporcionar o melhor planeamento possível aos seus atletas. Para além disso, um treinador deve ter sempre um sentido crítico em relação ao seu trabalho e resultados obtidos, de modo, a poder evoluir e potenciar um processo de treino com qualidade para os seus atletas obterem bons desempenhos e estarem motivados.

Abstract:
Shortly before the birth of our first child, Kate, now twenty-eight, Joan and I bought a copy of Dr. Benjamin Spock’s Baby and Child Care. It proved to be very reassuring. A thick book with no wasted words, it told almost everything we needed to know about the coughs, the sneezes, the spots, the fevers, the crying at three in the morning, the rejection of nourishment, the emergence or nonemergence of teeth, and the terror-inspiring inclination of sleeping infants to stop breathing for a while just when their parents are getting settled in bed. There were, of course, a few things Dr. Spock failed to mention. I knew from medical school the signs and symptoms of many rare and terrible diseases of infants. Kate got them all. Each time we would rush her to the pediatrician, Dr. Arky, and each time we had the satisfaction of bringing a little uninhibited laughter into the life of that overworked and kindly man. Fortunately for Dr. Arky, we moved from north to central Jersey when Kate was two and found a new pediatrician, Dr. Lapkin. Although we got more experienced as time passed, and came to know Dr. Spock pretty much by heart, there was always something new. I remember, for example, my deep concern about Jonathan, our third child, when he was an infant; he did not seem to be able to hear. Joan was not particularly worried at first, but fear is contagious. What if the development of his language were affected? Anyway, it was time for his one-month visit to the pediatrician. Dr. Lapkin appeared somewhat tired but was in a good mood; it was nearing the end of a long day. I watched as he listened to Jonathan’s heart and lungs with his stethoscope and examined his reflexes. “He looks fine,” Dr. Lapkin said. “Any problems?” “He doesn’t seem to hear loud noises,” I said. “I’m afraid that he may be deaf. Is there some kind of audiometer test you could give him?” “He’s responding normally to my voice as I speak,” answered Dr. Lapkin. “He has been during the whole examination. Are there any other problems?” he asked, directing the question to Joan.
