Abstract:

Nowadays, students are engaged not only in educational activities, but also work independently, and in some situations, all act as parents [1]. In addition, modern students lack the notion of a daily regimen as such. All this leads to the fact that they do not have time for physical activity or simply are not interested in its implementation [2]. Therefore, it is very important to identify factors that motivate students to engage in physical labor in order to further increase the level of students’ interest in physical activity.

Abstract:

In addition to vertical loads, the foundations of offshore structures are subjected to horizontal loads and overturning moments as a result of environmental (wind and wave) loading. The behaviour of circular footings on cohesive soil under conditions of combined vertical, horizontal and moment (V, H, M) loading is the primary concern of this thesis. A programme of physical model tests, involving combined loading of circular footings on reconstituted Speswhite kaolin, is reported. The shape of footing used is typical of the "spudcan" foundations of independent leg jack-up drilling platforms. Pr

Abstract:

Physical education (PE) represents one of the most important physical settings in which to study motivational processes due to its uniqueness in including all young people with a wide range of physical abilities. Moreover, positive experiences in school PE are thought likely to enhance lifelong physical activity, giving PE an important role in influencing young people's involvement in physical activity both within and beyond the school curriculum. However, there is increasing concern over the physical activity levels of young people today, and understanding the changes in pupil's motivational

This exploratory, descriptive study examined how respondents rated statements exemplifying three physical activity frames: a weight control frame, a medical frame, and an active embodiment frame. An anonymous, online survey was conducted in March 2018; respondents rated frame statements in terms of inspiring motivation to engage in physical activity, and in terms of perceived credibility. They also provided anthropometric data and physical activity data. Da

Engaging in physical activity is an important aspect of living a healthy lifestyle. Approximately 60% of adults do not participate in regular physical activity (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services [U.S. DHHS],1996), and rates of physical activity are declining (Brownson, Boehmer, & Luke, 2005). An understanding of motivation toward physical activity may aid in improving participation rates of physical activity.

Research has shown that restrictive eating, or dieting, can be devastating to one's health. A new paradigm, intuitive eating, suggests that individuals eat based off of their physiological cues, and not for emotional or social ones. To date, restrictive eating has been extensively researched, but intuitive eating has not. The main purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between intuitive eating and its relationship between physical activity motivation and physical activity maintenance, using the self-determination theory.

The approach quantified six budget components: upland erosion; stream bank erosion; colluvial storage; wetland storage; stream channel erosion and storage; and sediment flux at the outlets.

Inactivity at hospital clinics is though still a major concern and it seems like lack of motivation plays a big roll.

Sea water intake structures submerged in the surf zone are used to provide water for cooling processes in large facilities such as power plants and refineries.

The model structure was designed in a manner so force measurement could be isolated to separate components of the structure. The

Abstract:

Dissertação de Mestrado em Psicologia da Saúde<br>Introdução. Os elevados índices de inactividade nas sociedades ocidentais e o conhecimento científico dos benefícios da prática regular de exercício físico, contribuíram para o impulsionar da investigação das variáveis psicológicas que podem estar associadas à adesão, manutenção, abandono e resistência à prática de exercício físico. O presente estudo, adoptando uma perspectiva de auto-regulação do comportamento (Maes & Karoly, 2005), analisou a relação entre a prática de exercício físico e a motivação (extrínseca e intrínseca), eficácia auto-re

Abstract:

This research project investigated the use of real-time sonification as a way to improve the quality and motivation of biceps curl exercise among healthy young participants. A sonification system was developed featuring an elec- tromyography (EMG) sensor and Microsoft Kinect camera. During exercise, muscular and kinematic data were collected and sent to custom design sonifi- cation software developed using Max to generate real-time auditory feedback. The software provides four types of output sound in consideration of personal preference and long-term use. Three experiments were carried out. T

Abstract:

Based on self-determination theory and achievement goal theory, the research investigated pre-adolescent (9-12 years of age) children’s motivational orientations in physical education. Various factors were identified that impact on children's motivation. Some differences in motivation emerged based on age, gender, level of motor proficiency and national culture. The findings of the research could inform the design of physical education programs and interventions to stimulate children’s motivation to actively engage in the class.

Abstract:

PE lessons are a unique context to address the declining levels of physical activity in the UK, offering the opportunity for students to achieve age appropriate physical activity recommendations. Therefore, it is imperative that researchers and practitioners understand variables that underpin students motivational processes in PE lessons. Psychological resilience refers to the idea that some individuals are able to positively adapt to the stressors they encounter. Conceptual theorisers of resilience propose that the concept comprises three constructs: stressors, positive adaptation, and protec
