CORRELATIONS AMONG HANDEDNESS, HANDGRIP STRENGTH AND FRONT CRAWL SWIMMING PERFORMANCE IN ADOLESCENTS

WOS: 000422507900002This study aims to investigate the relationships among hand grip strength, handedness and front crawl swimming performance in male and female adolescents. Data were collected from 22 female and 19 male, totally 41 swimmers aged from 13 to 18 years. Handedness was determined by using the Edinburgh Handedness Scale (Oldfield, 1971). Hand grip strength of right and left hands was measured by using an adjustable digital hand grip dynamometer. A nonparametric Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison between right and left handed participants. Spearman correlation coefficients were calculated among variables in male and female adolescents. No significant difference was observed between right and left hand grip strength depending hand preferences in male and female adolescents. There was also no significant difference between right and left handers in 50 and 100 meters front crawl swimming performance. In both genders, there was significant negative correlation between left hand grip strength and 50 m front crawl swimming. On the other side, right and left hand grip strengths were also negatively well correlated with 100 m front crawl swimming in males. There was only significant correlation between handedness and right hand grip strength in males. It can be concluded that hand grip strength symmetry in swimmers can result in better short distance swimming performance due to resultant force effect on technique

The Effect of Aerobic Exercise on Cardiopulmonary System in Children

AIM: The purpose of this study is to investigate the changes in cardiopulmonary system stimulated by aerobic exercise in different age group of children and to find out in which age group aerobic exercise is more effective. METHOD: Totally, 76 children participated in this study. Ages of the participants ranged between 11–17, and mean age was 14.08±0.65. Participants were divided into three groups according to their age range. There were 23 in the first and second and 30 participants in the third group, (15–17), (13–14) and 30 (11–12) respectively. Each of the groups then was divided into two parts one of which was experimental and the other was control group. During 8 weeks, a training programme based on doing aerobic exercise lasting one hour 3 days a week was performed in the experimental groups. Before and after training, EKG, spirometer, blood pressure, heart rate, PWC 170 test of the participants, which was the data collection method, were recorded. The results obtained were compared through t test method of SPSS. RESULTS: The results revealed a decrease in the systolic blood pressure and in the heart rate of those who did exercise as opposed to those who did not do exercise in Group I. In addition, R wave height in V6 of exercise group showed a statistically significant increase. As for second group, it was determined that the R/S, at V1 derivation obtained from the participants who did exercise showed a statistically decrease as compared to those of the participants who did not do exercise. In the third group, no changes were observed in the systolic blood pressure the heart rate, R wave height in V6 and R/S although the measures of PWC 170 test, VC and FVC obtained from all training groups made a significant increase when compared to those of control groups. CONCLUSION: The results of this study revealed that of the three groups the 15–17 age group was affected mostly by the aerobic exercise on kardiyopulmoner sytem. The results suggest that the exercises performed with this group affected the participants positively, which should be taken into consideration for further research.

The Relationships among Exercise Behavior, Body Composition and Perceived Health Levels in University Students

Aim and Scope: Increasing physical activity level is important for public health. This study aims to investigate the relationship between regular physical activity level, body composition and perceived health levels of university students. Methods: Participants of this study were consisted of 331 university students including 158 females and 173 males. The mean ages were 21.85 years for females and 22.94 years for males, respectively. The Exercise Behavior Stages of Change Questionnaire was used to determine the physical activity level. Mann Whitney U test was used to compare two genders while Spearman rank order correlation was performed to test the relationship among variables. Findings: Results of our study showed that there are significant differences between males and females in all variables except age and exercise behavior stages. While the exercise behavior stages and perceived health level of those who exercise in females are significantly different from those of sedentary, height and exercise behavior level in males are more statistically significant in favor of those who exercise. While the health level in females is positively related to the age variable and negatively related to the BMI, there was no significant difference between the health and exercise level and other variables in males. Conclusion: As a result, it can be concluded that male and female university students do not engage in regular physical activity at a level that will affect their perceived health levels

Olumsuz değerlendirilmekten korkma ölçeği’ne (ODKÖ) ilişkin bir geçerlik ve güvenirlik çalışması

Çalışmada Olumsuz Değerlendirilmekten Korkma Ölçeği’nin (ODKÖ) orijinal formunun genç yetişkin grubunda geçerlik ve güvenirliğine ilişkin psikometrik özelliklerinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışma Beden Eğitimi ve Spor Yüksek Okulu özel yetenek sınavına başvuran adaylardan 129’u kız ve 116’sı erkek olmak üzere toplam 245 kişi ile yürütülmüştür. Test- tekrar test güvenirliği ise 75 kişi ile yapılmıştır. ODKÖ “doğru” ve “yanlış” yanıt seçenekleri olan 30 maddeden oluşmaktadır. Benzer yapılar geçerliği için ODKÖ ile birlikte Sınav Kaygısı Envanteri- SKE (n=245) ve Sürekli Kaygı Ölçeği-SKÖ (n=68) ile veriler toplanmıştır. Analizler sonucunda ölçekteki maddelerin 24’ünün toplam puanla hesaplanan çift serili korelasyon katsayılarının .19 ile .72 arasında; korelasyon değerleri aritmetik ortalamasının ise .46 olduğu bulunmuştur. ODKÖ (24 madde) puanının SKE puanıyla .25, SKÖ puanıyla da .57 düzeyinde anlamlı ilişkileri bulunmuştur. Cinsiyete göre ölçekten alınan puanların farklılaşmadığı görülmüştür. Ölçeğin KR-20 ile hesaplanan iç tutarlık katsayısı .72, iki yarım güvenirliği .71 ve test- tekrar test katsayısının ise .71 olduğu gözlenmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlar, sınırlılıkları dikkate alınarak ölçeğin 24 maddesinin olumsuz değerlendirilmekten korkmayı ölçebilecek psikometrik özelliklere sahip olduğunu göstermektedir.The purpose of this study was to investigate the psychometric properties of the Fear of Negative Evaluation Scale (FNE) related to its validity and reliability on a young adult sample. The scale was administrated to 245 candidates (129 female, 116 male) applied to the entrance exam of Physical Education and Sports College of Adana. Test-retest reliability study was conducted with 75 of these candidates who entered the college. FNE is a self-report scale composed of 30 items in a true-false format. In order to test the convergent validity of FNE the scale was applied with the Test Anxiety Inventory (N=245) and Trait Anxiety Inventory (N=68). Analyses revealed that the 24 of the 30 items have biserial item-total score correlation coefficients ranged between .19 and .72 with a mean of .42. The total score obtained with these 24 items of FNE was significantly correlated with the scores of Test Anxiety Inventory (.25) and Trait Anxiety Inventory (.57). No significant gender differences were obtained on the scores of FNE. The internal consistency coefficient (KR-20) for the scale was .72, whereas split-half reliability coefficient was .71. The test-retest reliability coefficient of the scale was .71. Results indicated that regarding its limitations the 24 item of the FNE has adequate psychometric properties to assess fear of negative evaluation
