Abstract:
The potential for long-distance larval dispersal depends on the longevity of planktonic, free-swimming larvae and their capacity to successfully recruit to reef habitat. We present multi-year laboratory observations of the persistence of planular larvae and settlement competency over time for cohorts derived from the same parental populations of the most important Caribbean reef building coral species, Orbicella faveolata and Acropora spp. Despite variability among years/cohorts, larvae of both species display capacity for extended longevity (up to 83 d) and competency (demonstrated at up to 4

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 aquati

AbstractDespite the popularity of aquatic recreation and its well-promoted prophylactic and therapeutic values, not a lot is known about how socio-cultural background influences the acquisition of water competency. The aim of this study was to assess the influence of socio-economic and environmental factors on the swimming and rescue skills of male university students (n = 521) aged 19-20 years residing in the Region of Warmia and Mazury, Poland.An anonymous questionnaire was used as a diagnostic tool to elicit information on participants’ social backgrounds (such as parental income and level

Abstract:
The willingness of individuals to enroll in swimming classes requires them to recognize they do not have functional skills. This study investigated the self-efficacy of young adults 18 to 35 years of age regarding their understanding of what constitutes a competent swimmer. Forty-five interviews were conducted in recreation centers and parks with significant water features. Participants defined the word “swimming” and explained what they thought it meant when someone else said they knew how to swim. After analyzing the data, seven relevant domains appeared within respondents' definitions: not

Abstract:
Swimming is a form of physical activity and a life-saving skill. However, only a few studies have identified swimming ability classifiers in preschool children. This pilot cross-sectional study aimed to find anthropometric (AM) and motor competence (MC) predictors of swimming ability in preschool children, by building classifiers of swimming ability group (SAG) membership. We recruited 92 children (girls n = 45) aged 5–6 years and took the AM and MC measurements in accordance with the reference manual and using the KTK battery test (motor quotient, MQ), respectively.

Abstract:
Children in upper primary school who have not made progress along the Swimming and Water Safety Continuum may be at a greater risk in an aquatic environment because they have not developed the swimming competency, endurance and skills needed for survival in threatening aquatic situations. Three groups representing different socio-economic and geographical areas were selected to explore the relationships between psycho-social factors and the development of swimming ability among year seven students. Two groups from lower socio-economic areas were chosen. The first group was directly on the coas

Abstract:
This task assesses the following clinical skills: … ● Patient safety ● Communication with patients ● Information gathering ● Applied clinical knowledge … You are working alongside your consultant in the termination of pregnancy clinic and have just seen 15- year- old Chantelle Briar who has come with her friend requesting a termination of pregnancy. She insists she has a surgical termination of pregnancy as she does not want to have any pain during the procedure. Please take the appropriate consent for the procedure. You have 10 minutes for this task. (+ 2mins initial reading time). This station assesses the candidate’s ability to consent and their understanding of the important principles of Gillick/ Fraser competence and the issues surrounding Jehovah’s witness. Please do not interrupt them. You are Chantelle Briar, 15- year- old and attending the clinic requesting termination of pregnancy. You are in the High school and are preparing for your GCSEs. You like the school and have good friends. You are training for competitive swimming and have lot of plans for your future career. You have recently been going out with one of your classmates who recently moved to your school. You have used condoms during sex but do not understand how you got pregnant. Your friend suggested you take a pregnancy test after you felt sick in your last swimming lesson and it was positive. You are shocked and worried as your parents are not aware that you are sexually active. You have not informed any of your family members or teachers or GP regarding the pregnancy. You googled for the termination services and got an appointment at the clinic. Your boyfriend is aware and is supportive; he has not informed his parents either. You wish to have surgical termination so that it is all done quickly and with no pain. Your friend has accompanied you to the clinic and has been very supportive throughout. When you are seen by the doctor you insist that it is all kept confidential and that you would not wish either your parents or your family doctor know about it. You would want the procedure to be done as soon as possible and the first thing in the morning so you could go home by the end of the day.
