ВЛИЯНИЕ ФИДЖИТАЛ СПОРТА НА ФОРМИРОВАНИЕ КОМАНДНЫХ НАВЫКОВ И ЛИДЕРСКИХ КАЧЕСТВ У СТУДЕНТОВ

The modern educational system is in the process of searching for new approaches to developing students’ teamwork skills and leadership qualities. One of such approaches is phygital sport, which combines physical activity with elements of digital technologies. The article examines the mechanisms by which phygital sport influences the development of interpersonal communications, the distribution of roles in a team, and leadership among students. The conducted experimental study showed that regular phygital sport classes contribute not only to the development of students’ physical abilities, but also to the improvement of teamwork skills, the distribution of responsibility, and the development of leadership qualities. The presented data suggest that phygital sport can be effectively integrated into the educational process.

ФАКТОРЫ ПОВЫШЕНИЯ СПОРТИВНОЙ АКТИВНОСТИ РОССИЙСКОГО НАСЕЛЕНИЯ

Improving health and increasing life expectancy of the population is inextricably linked with its involvement in physical education and sports. Observations show that along with the growing involvement of Russians in mass sports, a significant part of citizens do not yet use physical activity for their health, recuperation, recreation, and socialization. The purpose of the study is, through interdisciplinary analysis, to identify factors for the possible involvement of various socio-demographic groups of the population in regular mass sports and to substantiate the directions for its further development. The empirical basis of the study was the materials of official statistics, sample observations, surveys and polls. To process empirical data, grouping methods, comparative analysis, and expert assessments were used. In the process of the study, the main reasons for the passive attitude of certain groups of the population towards mass sports were identified: lack of time, poor health, age, lack of accessible sports facilities and services, difficulty in overcoming oneself. The elements of scientific novelty of this study are the substantiation of the need for a more specific relationship between medicine and sports, a comparative analysis of the possibilities of expanding sports physical activity of the population in the paid and free segments of mass sports, the development of digital transformation of the sphere of mass sports to increase the accessibility and quality of its services. The practical significance of the study is that the proposed measures are aimed at increasing the interest and value of sports activity of various target groups of the population while simultaneously considering the real conditions of their implementation. The article substantiates the feasibility of a closer relationship between medicine, medical consultations and recommendations for physical activity, especially for older people with health problems; conducting regular observations of the dynamics of the contingents involved in mass sports and changes in their motivation; strengthening marketing and promotion of sports services and facilities in the media, public service advertising, social networks; providing preferences to entrepreneurs for renting premises, plots of land, organizing sports facilities, participating in the sponsorship of mass sporting events; development and use of training methods combining offline and online elements for target consumer groups; wider use of digital technologies and services for monitoring business processes in mass sports, increasing its efficiency and quality of services.

Factors shaping spectators’ consumption patterns: controversial arisings from an international sport tourism event

PurposeSport events’ contribution to the destinations’ local economy implies in-depth knowledge of the economic benefits generated by non-resident spectators (NRS). Thus, this study aims to answer: What is the profile and shaping factors of the consumption patterns of the several types of NRS in international surf tourism events?Design/methodology/approachA total of 263 questionnaires applied to the NRS of an international surf event were collected and analysed. The identification of the NRS profile and the predictive factors of their total expenditure were performed through the correlation of factors and multiple linear regression, respectively.FindingsMostly, the event attracted generation Y NRS, with a high level of education and regular sport practice. The results showed differences among the NRS: the “casuals” included more women than men; the “extensioners” integrated the NRS whose surfing practice is higher; the “event visitors”/”time switchers” mostly integrated the domestic tourism flows; the “casuals” and “extensioners” spent the most at the destination, and those whose intention to recommend/revisit the destination, respectively, was higher; and the shaping factor that most influenced the increase in NRS expenditure was the overnight stay, added by older age, higher education level and foreign origin.Originality/valueRegardless of the initial motivation that led to the trip to the destination, the results verified that the event’s attributes are capable of contributing to the recommendation/visitation of the destination. Consequently, the study of economic benefits (tangible and intangible) provided by sport events in destinations should be guided by an integrative analysis of NRS.

Effect of Eight-week Selected Aerobic and Resistance Exercises on the Plasma Levels of Irisin, Follistatin, and Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 in Women Recovered from COVID-19

Background and Objectives Recently, performing regular sports activities has been considered an effective strategy for the rehabilitation of patients who have recovered from COVID-19. The present study aimed to assess the effect of eight weeks of selected aerobic and resistance exercises on the plasma levels of irisin, follistatin, and fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) in women who recovered from COVID-19. Subjects and Methods A total of 33 women who recovered from COVID-19 were assigned to three groups, namely aerobic exercise, resistance, and control, after the general call and selection. Aerobic training with an intensity of 50%-70% of the reserve heart rate and resistance training with an intensity of 40%-75% of a maximum repetition was performed for eight weeks (three sessions per week). Irisin, follistatin, and FGF21 levels were measured using the ELISA method. The data were analyzed using the analysis of variance statistical test at the significant level of < 0.05. Results As illustrated by the results, selected aerobic and resistance exercises caused a significant increase in irisin, follistatin, and FGF21 levels. The results of the post hoc test demonstrated that this increase was significant in the aerobic and resistance groups compared to the control group. Moreover, within-group changes pointed to a significant increase in the mean before and after the intervention in the aerobic and resistance groups. Conclusion Carrying out selected aerobic and resistance exercises in women who recovered from COVID-19 boosts their physical strength and is effective in quick recovery by restoring some indicators of myokine profile.

Comparison of Isokinetic Strength Parameters of Quadriceps in Athletes and Non-Athletes

OBJECTIVE: To compare the quadriceps isokinetic strength parameters of athletes and non-athletes. METHODOLOGY: The cross-sectional study was conducted from July to December 2019 at the Pakistan Sports Board, Islamabad. The sample size was 81, selected through a non-probability convenience sampling technique and calculated by the Rao Soft tool. The 41 participants were in the athletes' group, and 40 were in the non-athletes' group. Individuals with a history of sprain, strain, or fracture in the lower limbs within the last six months were excluded. The self-structured questionnaire includes demographic data, waist-to-hip ratio, thigh circumference, peak torque values and agility t-test score. The isokinetic strength of the right lower limb (RLL) was measured via Biodex system Pro 3. Data was analyzed through SPSS 22, and an independent t-test was applied for analysis between groups. Pearson test was used for the correlation coefficient. RESULTS: Athletes had significantly higher quadriceps muscle strength than non-athletes (p<0.001), indicating the positive impact of regular sports participation and physical training. Quadriceps peak torque positively correlated with thigh circumference (r=0.60, p<0.001), consistent with previous studies. Surprisingly, athletes exhibited a weak to moderate negative correlation between quadriceps peak torque and agility (r=-0.35, p<0.05), suggesting a potential trade-off between muscle mass and agility performance. Increased muscle bulk may compromise speed and flexibility. CONCLUSION: Athletes demonstrated superior quadriceps muscle strength, emphasizing the positive influence of sports involvement and physical training; thigh circumference positively correlated with Quadriceps peak torque, and Agility negatively correlated with quadriceps peak torque.

Age-Related Study of Anthropometry Indicators, Body Composition, Strength and Vital Capacity at Masters Athletics: How to Postpone Sarcopenia.

The purpose of this study was to compare the anthropometric indicators of sports veterans, former athletes who stopped training, and non-sports people aged 40 years and older to assess the impact of regular sports on the stability of the body. 100 athletes and 31 people non-sports were included in the study. Athletes were divided into two groups depending on the mode of motor activity. The first group (n=75) continued their regular sports activities. The second group (n=25) stopped training. Height, weight, chest circumference, mobility, waist, shoulder circumference, forearm, hip, ankle, fat mass, and muscle mass were measured, and dynamometry was performed. Body weight is statistically significantly (p<0.05) less in those who continue sports (70.7±10.2) classes after 60 years compared with the control group (82.4±9.3). In sports veterans, the chest excursion and the shoulder circumference is statistically significantly (p<0.05) greater than in the control group. In the subjects of the first group aged from 40 to 49 (4551±612) and from 50 to 59 (4242±416), the FVC index was statistically significantly (p<0.05) higher than in the control group (3890±344 and 3786±401, respectively). The body composition of veterans is characterized by a high level of muscle mass and a low level of fat mass. At the age of 40-49, the percentage of muscle tissue in sports veterans was statistically significantly higher (46.32±2.74) (p<0.05) than in the group of athletes who stopped sports activities (44.09±5.29). Veterans of sports demonstrate higher indicators of limb girth and muscle strength compared to untrained people of the same age. In addition, sports veterans have a lower content of adipose tissue and a greater expression of muscle mass. Thus, the data obtained by us show that sports prevent the development of sarcopenia and can also affect cardiovascular risk.

Study of Morpho-Functional Characteristics of the Cardiovascular System According to Electrocardiography, Phonocardiography, Echocardiography in Masters Athletics.

Many authors have noted the lack of knowledge on the causal relationship between the degree of physical activity, the dynamics, and outcomes of diseases, as well as the influence of sports history on the rehabilitation potential of former athletes. Assessment of the functional state of the cardiovascular system according to the indicators of electrocardiography, polycardiography, echocardiography and the level of physical performance in masters athletes. The study included a main group consisting of 100 athletes, who had undergone electrocardiography, poly-electrocardiography, ultrasound echocardiography, heart rate and blood pressure measurement to determine their level of physical performance. The subjects were then divided into 2 groups. The first group included 75 people who continue to be active in regular sports activities. The second group consisted of 25 people who completely stopped training or had only occasional, unsystematic physical activities. A control group of 31 people, consisting of people of the same age who had not been involved in sports earlier, was examined according to the same program. The data obtained by us show that sports activities do contribute to the increasing stability of the body and maximize the deployment of the capabilities of the circulatory system, including their long-term preservation in masters athletic. Athletes who have stopped training have signs of age-related changes in the heart and blood vessels, which seem to be more frequent and earlier than those who continue training. A higher degree of myocardial contractility (in 90.67% of cases) can also be seen in the main group. Masters athletes and those who stopped training after completing their sports career, should have notably thorough medical supervision and undergo regular annual in-depth examination.

This study aims to establish football promotion guidelines to enhance the mental well-being of 7-12-year-olds in Guangdong, China. Methods: Through semi-structured interviews, 20 experts were engaged to gather data on the effects of football promotion. Rigorous piloting ensured the credibility of the research instruments. Results: Football promotion significantly improved the mental health of 7–12-year-olds, fostering physical fitness, stress reduction, heightened self-esteem, and the development of cognitive and social skills. Key success factors encompass robust family support, well-designed school programs, accessible community facilities, and effective club development. Conclusions: This study emphasizes the compelling need to prioritize mental health in youth sports through educational and policy interventions. Collaborative efforts between sports and mental health experts are crucial. Equipping coaches to facilitate mental well-being is of paramount importance. Involving parents through targeted resources and communication is recommended. Adopting a holistic approach that comprehensively addresses emotional, social, and cognitive dimensions is essential for a well-rounded youth development strategy.

Temporal relationship between training and episodes of atrial fibrillation in endurance athletes

Abstract Background Prolonged endurance training promotes exercise-induced cardiac remodeling and atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common arrhythmia among middle-aged endurance athletes. However, there is a lack of data on the impact of training sessions on the recurrence of AF episodes and current guidelines do not provide specific training recommendations for athletes diagnosed with AF. Both sympathetic stimulation during exercise and parasympathetic activity after exercise are possible mechanisms for recurrent episodes of AF. Purpose To assess the temporal relationship of training sessions with recurrent AF episodes among endurance athletes with paroxysmal AF. Methods The Effects of Detraining in Endurance Athletes with Atrial Fibrillation Trial is an international multicenter randomized controlled trial that includes athletes engaged in regular endurance sports ≥five hours per week, diagnosed with paroxysmal AF. AF episodes lasting ≥30 seconds were registered using wireless insertable cardiac monitors (ICM) and reviewed by an experienced cardiologist. Training sessions were registered using sports watches. We analyzed AF episodes and training data for the period from ICM implantation to randomization, and report event rates and rate ratios with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for recurrent AF episodes during or within 3 hours after training sessions, compared to &amp;gt;3 hours after training. Results Eighteen athletes (1 female, 17 male) with a median age of 55 years (range 44-74) were included. The combined duration of monitoring was 845 days/20,280 hours (median 38.5, range 12-97 days). The athletes performed a total of 619 hours of training during 559 training sessions. In total, 66 AF episodes (median 1, range 0-15) were registered, of which 37 (56%) occurred within 24 hours after the start of a training sessions. Ten AF episodes (15%) occurred during a training session, 12 (18%) occurred within 3 hours after a training session and 44 (67%) occurred &amp;gt;3 hours after training. Figure 1 shows recurrent AF episodes during training (red bars) and within 24 hours from the start of a training session (blue bars) and smoothed density estimates. The event rate per 24 hours was 0.39 for AF during training, 0.17 the first 3 hours after training and 0.06 &amp;gt;3 hours after training. As compared to &amp;gt;3 hours after training, the rate ratio was 6.6 (95% CI 3.8 to 11.6) for recurrent AF episodes during training sessions and 3.9 (95% CI 2.2 to 6.9) for AF episodes during or within 3 hours after training. Conclusion Among middle-aged endurance athletes with paroxysmal AF, the rate of recurrent AF episodes was highest during and within 3 hours after training sessions. The impact of training and the pathophysiology of exercise-induced AF should be investigated further, with the aim of developing preventive strategies specific to athletic populations.Figure 1

Gambling-like digital assets and gambling severity: a correlational study with U.S. sports bettors consuming cryptocurrencies, NFTs, and fan tokens

ABSTRACT This paper explores the relationship with gambling severity of a relatively new set of speculative digital products, namely cryptocurrency trading, non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and fan tokens. These products have gained notoriety in sports marketing strategies (among other realms) and are considered to be potentially problematic because, disguised as non-gambling products, they include gambling-like design features that might make sports fans more vulnerable when consuming them. A sample of regular sports bettors (N = 525) based in the U.S. was recruited in 2023 via an online panel to understand the association between these types of consumptions. The findings revealed a significant overlap between experiencing gambling problems and consuming cryptocurrency trading products, NFTs, and fan tokens. The results indicate a modest relationship between the severity of gambling and the likelihood of owning the studied digital assets, of holding positive attitudes toward them, and of being more frequently exposed to their advertising and marketing promotions. The relevancy of these findings resides in the fact that sports bettors might be perceiving and treating gambling and gambling-like assets as part of the same product category, when in reality the latter are legally required to comply with fewer consumer protection measures than gambling products.

A Robotic Assistant for Disabled Chess Players in Competitive Games

Access to regular sports competitions is often precluded for disabled people. Chess, which has been recognized as a sport by the International Olympic Committee in 1999, is a rare exception. Nevertheless, to compete in official tournaments, people suffering from a high level of motor impairment must rely on the assistance of a person to move their pieces on the chessboard, under their indications. This can result in a reduction of the feeling of independence and self-esteem. In this work, a service robot is employed as an assistant for competitive chess players, moving pieces on a standard chessboard for competitions, and adhering to the rules of the international chess federation (e.g. not relying on a custom sensorized chess-set). The robot is controlled through an intuitive graphical user interface. The user interface can be navigated with easy-to-use devices, such as a mouse, a touchpad, or a commodity joystick for motion-impaired people (Ottobock calibratable Mini joystick). An effective framework for the opponent’s move identification from RGB-D images is proposed and used to keep track of the live game situation. The application is implemented in ROS on a PAL Robotics TIAGo robot, a service robot with a 7 degrees-of-freedom arm, an extensible torso, and a re-orientable RGB-D camera. The robustness of the application is tested by reproducing six famous chess games several times on a standard wooden competition chessboard, making TIAGo play on behalf of the player with white or black pieces, alternatively. The application is properly working without the need of operator intervention in the 91.6%\\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \\usepackage{amsmath} \\usepackage{wasysym} \\usepackage{amsfonts} \\usepackage{amssymb} \\usepackage{amsbsy} \\usepackage{mathrsfs} \\usepackage{upgreek} \\setlength{\\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \\begin{document}$$91.6\\%$$\\end{document} of the performed moves. The proposed approach successfully opens the door to independent competitive chess playing for motor disabled people in official tournaments.

Defining the scope and content of mental health guidelines for community sport in Australia: A Delphi study

Regular sport participation can lead to several known physical and psychological health benefits. However, some sport environments may be contributing to the development of mental health disorders in participants. Elite sporting organisations have introduced several guidelines and positions statements to ensure psychologically safe sport environments, but these are often not applicable to the recreational sport setting. To guarantee psychologically safe sport environments for all participants, there has been an urgent call to develop mental health guidelines for recreational sport. To ensure future guidelines meet the needs of recreational sport environments, and are feasibly implemented, collaboration with experts is needed. The aim of this study was therefore to explore and synthesise the opinions of experts on the scope and content of mental health guidelines for community sport using the Delphi technique. Twenty-one experts from around Australia participated in two Delphi rounds, one qualitative and one quantitative, to reach consensus on key areas of future guidelines. Five key groupings were identified from the qualitative responses, which led to the identification of 13 key statements related to the provision of mental health promotion, prevention, and care in sport. Eight of the statements related to the role of community sport organisations in the promotion of positive mental health, and prevention of mental health problems. None of the statements were concerned with mental health care as most experts did not indicate this was the responsibility of community sport clubs. An additional five statements related to the responsibilities of the different levels of sport governance. Practical implications and future directions for the development of mental health guidelines for recreational sport are discussed.

Analysis of the sports participation motives of high school students (the example of Malatya)

In this study, the objective is to analyse the sports participation motives of high school students by gender, age, school type and doing sports regularly. In the research “relational screening model” was used. 770 high school students studying in Malatya participated in the research. In the research, “Sport Participation Motivation Scale” was used. The scale was delivered to the students over various social media tools through the Google survey application. As a result of the research, it was observed that age, gender, school type and doing sports regularly affect the sports participation motives of the students at different levels. On the other hand, the results of the research revealed that the high school students participated in sports by getting affected from different motives. Furthermore, it was observed that the female students had overcome their fears and concerns about sports participation, and they were willing to make use of sports more to meet their physical, spiritual and social needs. The results of the research also show that regular sports activities have a positive effect on sports participation and the students take this effect for granted

Результаты медицинского обеспечения подготовки граждан к военной службе в субъекте Российской Федерации.

The armed forces of the Russian Federation are the guarantor of ensuring the national security of our state. The importance of strengthening the health of citizens of military age is increasing, which are viewed from the perspective of a human resource responsible for the country’s defense capability. Purpose of the study is to analyze the results of medical support for the preparation of citizens for military service in the Orenburg region for the period from 2000 to 2022. M a t e r i a l s a n d m e t h o d s . Statistical and analytical methods were used in the study. The data of statistical collections of the Territorial Body of the Federal State Statistics Service for the Orenburg region, accounting and reporting documents of the Center for military medical expertise of the Federal State Institution «Military Commissariat of the Orenburg Region» were used. R e s u l t s . Over the years of the study, there has been a gradual decrease in the conscription resource (the number of young men put on military registration) by 49,2% – from 19,504 in 2000 to 9598 young men in 2022. In 2000, the fitness for military service for health reasons was 60,2%. The current situation required the adoption of managerial decisions aimed at compensating the conscription resource needed to recruit the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in sufficient quantity by increasing the fitness of conscripts for military service. The promotion of a healthy lifestyle by young people, regular physical education and sports has become widespread. The result of the work done is a gradual increase in the fitness for military service, which in 2022 amounted to 76,3%. F i n d i n g s . The organization of medical support required interdepartmental interaction in the work of state and public organizations for timely management decisions on problematic issues. The improvement of health indicators and, as a result, an increase in the number of citizens fit for military service, contributed to the stable fulfillment of the state task of conscription of citizens for military service.

Auditory sensory augmentation to support table tennis games for people with vision loss

People with vision loss often face limitations in regular sports games with standard rules and equipment. For example, in current blind table tennis, conventional rules are modified so that the ball rolls along the table instead of bouncing. In this work, we propose an auditory sensory augmentation system to support traditional table tennis in three dimensions. We capture the trajectory of the table tennis ball using two neuromorphic event cameras and sonify the path of the ball using loudspeakers mounted near the left and right edges of the playing table. The two event cameras capture rapid changes in brightness allowing fast and precise ball tracking. The ball's 3D trajectory is then sonified using four lines of loudspeakers mounted at two different heights near the left and right edges of the playing table. We present a preliminary implementation and investigation of the proposed sensory augmentation system with a focus on the technical and perceptual challenges.

The Effects of Regular Sport and Nanofibrous Conduit on Peripheral Nerve Repair: An In Vitro and In Vivo Study

In the current research, the effects of a regular sport program was investigated on peripheral nerve regeneration in a rat model. The critical sized peripheral nerve gap was created in a rat model and the nerve injury gap was bridged by an electrospun polycaprolacton/collagen-based neural conduit. After bridging the nerve gap, the animals received a regular exercise three times a week until week 8. Study showed that the regular exercise program significantly augmented the level of sciatic nerve repair as evidenced by histopathological examinations and functional recovery experiments. Gene expression studies showed that rats treated with regular exercise had higher expression levels of BDNF, NGF, and b-FGF genes.

CORRELATION AMONG EXERCISE HABITS, STUDY HABITS, AND AVERAGE GRADE POINTS AMONG SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE STUDENTS / 運動習慣、學習習慣和平均績點之間的相關性 高中生和大學生

&lt;p&gt;The present study is a quantitative, cross-sectional, synchronic, and descriptive research based on the hypothesis that sports and related physical activities help students’ academic performance. The study also investigated the correlation among students’ exercise habits (exercise, sports, physical activity), study habits, and their average grade points. For the present study, data were collected from 253 senior high school and college students who were studying at two vocational high schools, one non-vocational high school, and one university in New Taipei City areas, Taiwan. Results of exercise habits: Out of 253 students, 77 (30%) students did exercise 3 and above times per week, 136 (54%) students did sports and related physical activities 1-2 times per week, the remaining 40 (16%) students never did sports and physical activities. Regarding study habits, out of 253 students, 30% of students reviewed or studied 3 times and above at home. While 121 (48%) students reviewed or studied 1-2 times per week, 77 (30%) of students never studied at home. Another interesting finding was the difference in study habits between those students who did regular exercise (exercise, sports, related physical activities) and those who never did. Out of 253 students, 77 of them did regular exercise (3 times and above per week) and another 40 students never did any kind of exercise. Results of study habits: Among the 77 students who did regular sports or physical activities, 39% of students reviewed or studied above 3 times per week compared to only 10% who reviewed or studied 3-4 times per week among the 40 students. Another 39% of students among the 77 students reviewed or studied 1-2 times per week compared to 30% of students reviewing or studying among the 40 non-exercise students. Among the 77 exercise groups, the remaining 22% of them never reviewed or studied at home compared to a big 60% of students who never reviewed or studied among the non-exercise group.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;本研究是一項定量的、橫向的、同步的描述研究。基於的假設是：運動競賽（sports）和運動相關活動對於學生的在校成績會有幫助。本研究同時也調查學生運動習慣（包含訓練，任何型態的運動，或體能活動），唸書習慣，和他們學期平均成績三者之間的相關程度。關於本次研究的數據資料蒐集來自於台灣新北地區253名高中生與大學生，涵蓋2所技職學校，1所普通高中，以及1所大學。從運動習慣的結果顯示：253名學生中，77名（30%）學生每週鍛煉3次及以上，136名（54%）學生每週進行1-2次體育及相關體育活動，其餘40名（16% ）學生們從未參加過體育運動和體育活動。在讀書習慣方面：253名學生中，30%的學生在家複習或讀書3次及以上。雖然 121 名 (48%) 學生每周復習或讀書 1-2 次，但 77 名 (30%) 學生從未在家學習。另一個有趣的發現是那些經常運動（鍛煉、運動、相關體育活動）的學生和那些從不運動的學生之間的有念書習慣的差異。在 253 名學生中，77 名定期運動的學生（每週 3 次及以上），另外 40 名學生從未進行任何鍛煉。比較兩組學生之間學習習慣的結果發現：在經常參加體育活動的 77 名學生中，39% 的學生每周復習或學習 3 次以上，而在 40 名學生中，只有 10% 的學生每周復習或學習 3-4 次。 77 名學生中有 39% 的學生每周復習或學習 1-2 次，而 40 名不運動學生中這一比例為 30%。在77名運動組中，剩下22%的人從未在家複習或學習過，相比之下，非運動組中有60%的學生從未在家複習或學習過&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Article visualizations:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="/-counters-/soc/0077/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

S9-2 Dutch national falls prevention program- implementation challenges

Abstract Purpose In the Netherlands, a very ambitious falls prevention program is being implemented in 2023 and 2024. Falls among older adults lead to a high burden on healthcare and high societal costs. This program is therefore part of the current government coalition agreement. Each year one in seven persons over 65 should be screened on fall risk and should be stimulated to reduce fall risk. The whole program includes specific falls prevention programs (FPPs) as well as Physical activity (PA) programs outside these FPPs to keep fall risk restricted. Large responsibility is given to municipalities for implementation at the local level, and to regional public health services at a higher level. Project description At present there is no good organisation of falls prevention. A whole infrastructure has to be set up to be able to carry out the prevention program. This is coordinated by VeiligheidNL. It involves a considerable number of stakeholders and different working packages on FFPs, implementation, and communication. Starting in 2022, a number of sessions have been held to inform municipalities, regional health services, and professionals. Funding frameworks are set up including refunding of FPP participation and support of coordination by municipalities. As part of the process, we evaluated among scientists, PA professionals and municipalities what is needed to organise PA for maintenance after FPPs and for people without increased risk. This includes more available organised PA, increase in frequency and intensity of current group PA, and involving regular sports clubs to increase overall capacity. Most municipalities need to take a much stronger coordinating role, including also a professional with ‘broker’ role, generally the so-called neighbourhood sports coach (NSC). This professional guides older people to suitable PA and is a connector between health, social care and PA professionals. Conclusions The ambitious falls prevention program, supported by considerable financial resources, has the potential to give a large boost to PA in older adults. There are still a lot of challenges at the national as well as local level before implementation is successful, but several locations have already managed to develop a good infrastructure.

The Effect of Sports Education on Adolescent Self-Esteem (A Comparative Study Between Students in Special Sports Classes and Regular Classes)

Identity crises are common in adolescence, which can lead to destructive behavior. Sport affects behavior indirectly through positive competitive attitudes and negative stereotypical destructive behavior. This study analyzes sports education on self-esteem in special and regular sports education. This type of research is quantitative, with an ex post facto approach. The subjects in the study were 200 respondents consisting of special sports class (KKO) students, regular class students, and parents/guardians of ninth-grade junior high school students. The data collection technique used a self-esteem questionnaire from the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES). Test the instrument's validity with Pearson's product-moment correlation coefficient, while the instrument reliability test uses Cronbach's Alpha technique. The data analysis technique used is a one-way ANOVA test. The results showed that there were differences between KKO and regular students. Student participation, especially adolescents at the junior high school (SMP) level in sports activities, has a high level of tendency. The existence of special sports classes (KKO) whose curriculum is designed systematically and structured to implement sports training programs and harmonious general education has a psychological effect on adolescent students. Thus, it can be concluded that there is an effect of sports education on self-esteem in KKO students. This research implies that sports education that is managed properly has a positive impact on adolescents.
