Physical activity profiles and selected muscular fitness variables in English schoolchildren: A north–south divide?

The aim of the study was to compare and contrast habitual physical activity (PA) profiles and muscular fitness in schoolchildren from northern and southern regions of England. Data were collected from two secondary schools in the north east (NE) of England. The study procedures followed methods employed by the East of England Healthy Hearts Study in 10–16-year-old boys and girls based in the south east (SE) region of England and data were compared. Habitual physical activity (PAQ-A), vertical jump test, and hand-grip (HG) strength were assessed. We converted raw scores from all assessments to age- and sex-normalised z-scores. We recruited 597 children (58% boys) in the NE and compared findings to 597 age- and sex-matched boys and girls from the SE. Boys in the SE had significantly stronger HG scores, jumped higher, were more powerful (mean peak power: 2131?W vs. 1782?W; P?P?P?相似文献

日本的集团性社会文化

每一个民族都有自己独特的文化,对于日本来说,集团性是其社会文化的核心。在讲求资历的日本场所型集团社会中,序列意识构成是日本纵向社会的基础。在序列意识的基础上,日本形成了以武士道的"忠义"和儒家思想的"和为贵"为核心,以"忠孝恭顺"为宗旨,成员服从集团,下级服从上级的集团性文化。     

Academics’ conceptualisations of the research-teaching nexus in a research-intensive Irish university: A dynamic framework for growth & development

The interdependent relationship between research and teaching is at the heart of research-intensive universities. In the present study, an initial electronic quantitative survey was undertaken following which, we performed 28 in-depth, semi-structured interviews amongst a cross-section of faculty in a research intensive Irish university to capture how faculty conceptualise the relationship between research and teaching. Our qualitative analysis revealed a dynamic framework with three interacting phases: 1) teaching is enhanced by research 2) learning research skills and competencies; and 3) student engagement with research practice. These themes contribute to the development of the student as a researcher and the implicit vision of the research-intensive university as a ‘community of scholars’ where teaching enhances research and research enhances teaching. The perceived benefits of teaching on research provides a new insight into the research and teaching nexus from which the opportunity exists to foster these approaches and develop institutional policy to grow and sustain the research-teaching interactions.     

傈僳族垂直农业的生态人类学研究——以云南省迪庆州维西县同乐村为例

云南省迪庆藏族自治州维西傈僳族自治县叶枝镇同乐村是澜沧江流域典型的傈僳族村寨,也是联合国教科文组织命名的生态文化村。同乐村的傈僳族在长期的历史发展中,根据海拔差异创造了一套行之有效的垂直农业系统。该系统最大程度的利用了自然资源,保证了本民族的基本生活需要。本文应用生态人类学的适应理论,利用参与观察法、深度访谈法等人类学田野调查方法,对同乐村傈僳族的垂直农业系统进行了研究。研究表明,傈僳族对生态环境的适应不仅表现在最大程度的利用自然资源,而且形成了一套与之相适应的传统文化体系。但随着滇西北经济社会的发展,同乐村傈僳族垂直农业系统和传统文化体系受到了极大的挑战。只有正确处理经济社会发展与垂直农业系统及与之相适应的传统文化体系之间的关系才能实现经济发展和文化保护同步进行,走一条农业可持续发展之路。     

两次春季冷锋过境引起的大风天气分析

利用常规的地面、高空观测资料、物理量场资料对两次春季冷空气大风过程进行了对比分析。结果表明,中高层的西南急流自西向东影响,不稳定大气层结的加强和发展,是两次大风天气的触发和启动机制,中层冷空气的侵入,有利于强对流大风的发生;揭示了两次过程由于高低层辐合辐散差异而引起的大风区上空两类不同的高低空垂直下沉速度分布特征,指出动量下传作用在地面造成风速的加大主要决定于对流层中低层的下沉速度,这可能也是两次大风过程地面气压梯度接近,而实际风力却差一级的原因。     

中外优秀男子跳远运动员起跳效果差异致因的研究

通过中外优秀男跳远运动员起跳技术特征的对比分析,对导致中外运动员起跳效果差异的原因进行了探讨。我国运动员起跳支撑缓冲能力差、起蹬时机晚、摆动速度小是主要致因。     

Commentary on research into learning in physical education: towards a mature field of knowledge

In this commentary, I consider each of the papers in this special issue in regard to their contribution to a debate on the nature of learning in physical education (PE). I also discuss how we might take this aspiration further by moving beyond a ‘mere’ debate over learning theories to a knowledge building process in which knowledge claims are ‘tested’ against their compatibility (or non-compatibility) with other ‘knowings’. In this regard, I introduce the idea of vertical integration or compatibility as a consideration for building a more mature field of study of learning in PE.
