Abstract:

A theory of consciousness, whatever else it may do, must address the structure of experience. Our perceptual experiences are richly structured. Simply seeing a red apple, swaying between green leaves on a stout tree, involves symmetries, geometries, orders, topologies, and algebras of events. Are these structures also present in the world, fully independent of their observation? Perceptual theorists of many persuasions—from computational to radical embodied—say yes: perception veridically presents to observers structures that exist in an observer-independent world; and it does so because natur

Abstract:

In this discussion paper based on preliminary data, the safety and other quality criteria of ChatGPT-4o-generated exercise plans for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are evaluated. The study team created three fictional patient profiles varying in sex, age, body mass index, secondary diseases/complications, medication, self-rated physical fitness, weekly exercise routine and personal exercise preferences. Three distinct prompts were used to generate three exercise plans for each fictional patient. While Prompt 1 was very simple, Prompt 2 and Prompt 3 included more detailed request

Abstract:

Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) reflects the integrated ability to deliver oxygen from the atmosphere to the skeletal muscles and to utilize it to generate energy to support muscle activity during exercise. Peak oxygen uptake (V?O2) is internationally recognized as the criterion measure of youth CRF. It is well-documented that in youth peak V?O2 increases with sex-specific, concurrent changes in a range of age- and maturity status-driven morphological and physiological covariates with the timing and tempo of changes specific to individuals. However, a recent resurgence of interest in predictin

Abstract:

Jack London was both an athlete and an environmentalist, and in The Valley of the Moon (1913) he represents athletics not as a distraction from environmental issues but as the model for the types of exercise that modern humans must perform to establish a more sustainable relationship to the natural world. Writing what at times resembles a fictional training manual, I argue, London taps into his contemporaries’ anxieties about human physical degeneration and their pervasive fascination with sports, fitness and physical performance. At the same time, London also uses his novel to address environ

In recent years, research on physical literacy has experienced remarkable growth, identifying the factors in this multidimensional concept that may play a role in the acquisition of healthy habits. In addition, multiple studies have identified significant correlations between physical literacy and quality of life, although they did not find a reason for this relationship. One of the factors that could explain this behavior is physical fitness. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the role of physical fitness and its components in the relationship between physical literacy and life satisfacti

Background. Studies on physical activity, which is positively associated with physical fitness, reveal that children’s activity is not sufficient (BHFNC, 2010; Chen, Zheng, Yi, & Yao, 2014; Currie et al., 2012), and their physical fitness deteriorates (Volbekienė & Kavaliauskas, 2002; Мирошниченко & Астраханцев, 2005; Синявский, Власов, & Сергеев, 2009).
