The influence of curriculum on master’s students’ perceived abilities in four domains of graduateness
Potentially all university graduates, regardless of the discipline they have studied, are expected to have obtained generic learning outcomes, which we refer to as ‘graduateness’. This study investigates the extent to which learning programmes’ emphasis on graduateness affects students’ perceived abilities in the domains of graduateness. Four domains of graduateness are considered: reflective thinking, scholarship, moral citizenship and lifelong learning. Based on curriculum maps, master’s programmes were clustered according to the emphasis placed on each domain. Unexpectedly, there appeared to be no difference in students’ perceived competence in the four domains of graduateness between master’s programmes that placed little to no emphasis on reflective thinking, moral citizenship or lifelong learning and master’s programmes that placed more emphasis on these domains. Only in the scholarship domain was a difference found in students’ perceived competence; surprisingly, it was in the opposite direction. In conclusion, we can say that the relation between emphasis on the domains of graduateness and students’ perceived abilities in these domains were not found across a large sample of study programmes

morphologic features of the sportsman, that is one of the selective
factors determining the sportsman's perspective. Purpose of
research is studying of peculiarities anthropomentric and
somatometric indices of super league, premier league and first

The impact of maintenance therapy on sleep-wake rhythms and cancer-related fatigue in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia
Purpose: To assess the impact of maintenance therapy and the additional impact of dexamethasone treatment on cancer-related fatigue and sleep-wake rhythms in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients and to determine the association between these outcomes. Methods: A national cohort of pediatric ALL patients (≥ 2 years) was included (± 1 year post-diagnosis). Patients receiving dexamethasone were assessed twice (assessment with and without dexamethasone). Actigraphy assessments were used to calculate sleep-wake outcomes with nonparametric methods. Cancer-related fatigue was assessed with the PedsQL Multidimensional Fatigue Scale. Sleep-wake rhythms and cancer-related fatigue were compared between patients participating in the assessment without dexamethasone and healthy children (linear regression) and between assessments with and without dexamethasone (mixed models). Using linear regression, associations between sleep-wake outcomes and cancer-related fatigue were determined during assessments with and without dexamethasone. Results: Responses were collected for 125 patients (113 assessments with and 81 without dexamethasone). The sleep-wake rhythm was less stable (p = 0.03) and less robust (p = 0.01), with lower physical activity l
