Abstract:

At the turn of the 20th century, children's play came under new and heightened scrutiny by urban reformers. As conditions in US cities threatened traditional notions of order, reformers sought new ways to direct urban-social development. In this paper I explore playground reform as an institutional response that aimed to produce and promote ideal gender identities in children. Supervised summer playgrounds were established across the United States as a means of drawing children off the street and into a corrective environment. Drawing from literature published by the Playground Association of

The purpose was to develop a valid protocol for use by physical educators in assessing whether children suspected of having developmental coordination disorder (DCD) meet the American Psychiatric Association (1994) diagnostic criterion of interference in activities of daily living when interference is defined as culturally subaverage engagement in activities of daily living in physical play (ADL-PP) on the playground. Participants were 136 children (75 girls, 61 boys) from Grades 1 to 4 at three elementary schools in Canada. Data were collected two ways: (a) three administrations of an ADL-PP

Abstract:

This study aimed to evaluate the associations between playground features and utilization. Following a cross-sectional study design, we assessed the features of 38 playgrounds using the Play Space Audit Tool (PSAT). Thereafter, we monitored the playground utilization by children (0–12 y) using a headcount approach during multiple site visits. Generalized Estimating Equations regression models were used to analyze the associations between the PSAT scores and playground utilization. Significant associations were found between the PSAT scores ‘overall’, ‘path’, and ‘play structure’ and playground

In terms of numbers of both spectators and players, football – or soccer as it is called mainly in North America – is probably one of the most popular sport games around the world.
