Development of the Exercise Motives and Gains Inventory

There are existing measures of exercise motives (what people want from exercise), but corresponding measures of gains (what people get) are needed, because motives and gains could influence each other and together influence other variables. An exercise motives and gains inventory (EMGI) was developed by creating gains scales to complement existing Exercise Motivations Inventory 2 scales. Confirmatory factor analyses of EMGI items established that items reflected their intended constructs; and that motive and gain constructs were distinct. Exploratory structural equation modeling of EMGI scales established that the higher-order structures of motives and gains were somewhat different: Appearance motive was associated with weight management, whereas appearance gain was associated with health and fitness. Paired-sample t-tests established that gains were less than motives in some instances (ill-health avoidance, positive health), and greater in others (e.g., affiliation, challenge). The EMGI can be used to investigate the consequences and causes of motives and gains.

The Difficult Patron in the Academic Library

Summary

Faculty members depend on the resources and services provided by the libraries to teach, satisfy the curricular needs of the students, and conduct their research. Students need the library for many reasons, among which are to complete their assignments and to expand on what faculty covers in class. The patron/librarian relationship in the academic library is not always perfect. Issues which students and faculty face in the academic library environment are completely different from those in the public library. Identifying the characteristics of the difficult or problem patron in academia is a little more difficult than in the public library. Are what librarians face when dealing with faculty and students more issue-related than just dealing with problem patrons? The authors will identify, from the librarians' perspectives, some of these often called difficult patron issues and offer solutions to try and preempt these issues before they become problems.     

Skating on Thin Intermediation: Can Libraries Survive?

ABSTRACT

Predictions about the end of libraries point to a real crisis, but assign the wrong cause. Libraries will not be displaced by technology like Google, but can be undermined by librarians’ own reactions to patron demand for Google-like experiences. Librarians can respond with a “weak model” that prioritizes the satisfaction of patrons, or a “strong model” that recognizes higher values rooted in the status of librarianship as a profession. Although recent trends favor the dominance of the weak model, only by embracing the strong model can librarians survive the challenges that threaten libraries.

体校学生特征性运动自信心和运动动机相关关系的研究

采用主要文献资料法、心理测量法和数理统计法等方法,对我国四所运动学校的运动员的特征性运动自信心和运动动机进行了测验,然后重点对其特征性自信心和运动动机的相关关系进行了研究。旨在搞清特征性运动自信心与运动动机的关系。结果显示,运动学校少年运动员的特征自信心和运动动机水平总体较好;体校运动员的特征性运动自信心与运动动机水平有显著相关;特征性运动自信心是一种特殊的运动动机。     

日本大学生运动员运动成就动机的性别,项目和运动经验年数差异

以日本一所大学４０６名运动员为对象，实施了含有５个测度的竞技动机量表（ＣＭＩ；叶平，１９９３）。性别×项目×运动经验年数的方差分析显示了下述有意义的差异：（１）男子在获胜愿望和娱乐这些ＣＭＩ测度上的分数高于女子；（２）集体项目的运动员在获胜愿望、社会承认和娱乐测度上的分数高于个人项目的运动员，在自我挑战测度上的分数低于个人项目的运动员；（３）运动经验年数多的运动员在获胜愿望测度上的分数，高于运动经验年数少的运动员。     

首都体育学院竞技体校学生文化课学习动机及管理对策的研究

本文对首都体育学院竞技体校学生文化课学习动机进行调查研究，并从动机状况、影响动机的内外因素、学生在文化课学习中遇到的主要问题、学生与教师对学校教学管理的意见以及学生对自身发展的设想等几个方面进行深入地分析。研究发现首都体育学院竞技体校学生文化课学习动机总体上偏低，但与业余体校学生并无显著差异；促使学生产生文化课学习动机的第一位需要是将来可以考上好的大学；影响竞技体校学生文化课学习动机的首要外在因素是学习风气；学生在文化课学习中遇到的主要问题是基础太差。本文同时根据研究中发现的问题提出了相应的管理对策。
