This book was released on 1979 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examined the selected factors which influence youth participation in sports. Six sociological factors as well as timing accuracy were investigated to determine differences among male and female participants and non-participants. Sixty 7th grade students from Longfellow JHS in La Crosse, Wisconsin served as Ss for the study. Selected Ss included 15 male and 15 female participants and nonparticipants. The Sport Participation Inventory (SPI) utilized in the study required Ss to respond to a set of fixed - alternative Likert-scale questions. The SPI contained questions on the following factors influencing sport participation: (1) family; (2) socio--economic factors; (3) personal values; (4) role models; (5) peers and siblings; and (6) physical characteristic scores. Also utilized in the study was a timing accuracy task requiring Ss to respond to a series of lights moving down a track. The 6 trials were randomly ordered with scores recorded in thousandths of a sec. for each trial. The Hewlett-Packard Time-Shared Basic computer program $GANOVA was utilized to determine group differences in the 6 sociological factors as well as timing accuracy. Once significant - other influences were determined, a stepwise regression was performed to establish which factors actually had the most influence on youth participation in sports. Significant differences between participants and non-participants were found to exist on influences from family, personal values, peers and siblings, physical characteristic scores, and socio-economic factors. The only influence which did not have a differential effect on the groups was that of role models. Male and female Ss were not significantly different on any of the factors influencing participation. The timing accuracy scores indicated a significant difference between males and females, regardless of their participation status, with males having greater accuracy. The regression statement provided information that indicated the factors having had the greatest impact on the sport participation of each of the four groups. By ranking the selected factors according to their entry into the regression statement, ranked scores indicated that family, socio-economic factors, and personal values had the greatest impact on participation when all groups were considered together. All though these three factors had the greatest impact across the groups, the order of entry varied for each of the four groups.

This book was released on 2013-11-13 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physical inactivity is a key determinant of health across the lifespan. A lack of activity increases the risk of heart disease, colon and breast cancer, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, osteoporosis, anxiety and depression and others diseases. Emerging literature has suggested that in terms of mortality, the global population health burden of physical inactivity approaches that of cigarette smoking. The prevalence and substantial disease risk associated with physical inactivity has been described as a pandemic. The prevalence, health impact, and evidence of changeability all have resulted in calls for action to increase physical activity across the lifespan. In response to the need to find ways to make physical activity a health priority for youth, the Institute of Medicine's Committee on Physical Activity and Physical Education in the School Environment was formed. Its purpose was to review the current status of physical activity and physical education in the school environment, including before, during, and after school, and examine the influences of physical activity and physical education on the short and long term physical, cognitive and brain, and psychosocial health and development of children and adolescents. Educating the Student Body makes recommendations about approaches for strengthening and improving programs and policies for physical activity and physical education in the school environment. This report lays out a set of guiding principles to guide its work on these tasks. These included: recognizing the benefits of instilling life-long physical activity habits in children; the value of using systems thinking in improving physical activity and physical education in the school environment; the recognition of current disparities in opportunities and the need to achieve equity in physical activity and physical education; the importance of considering all types of school environments; the need to take into consideration the diversity of students as recommendations are developed. This report will be of interest to local and national policymakers, school officials, teachers, and the education community, researchers, professional organizations, and parents interested in physical activity, physical education, and health for school-aged children and adolescents.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive collection examines the culture of sport and its relationship with various social institutions. The editors first provide a broad overview of the field and describe the ways in which the concept of sport as a meritocratic contest is undermined by the powerful social structures within which it is embedded. Sections focus on political economy, violence, the media, education, politics, fans and community, and the body. Primary readings from noted scholars in each section address current issues such as the presence of big-time sports in educational institutions; the effects of corporate media; race and class relations; professional athletes' ties to politics; and how sports alter perceptions and practices regarding beauty and health. In addition, entertaining and provocative essays from journalists supplement academic readings and spotlight key issues. Section introductions from the editors connect the readings to a theoretical framework that explores the perspectives of new institutionalism, cultural hegemony, social capital, and symbolic interaction and cultural construction. Providing a cohesive foundation for a wide range of readings, Sport, Power, and Society is a must-have resource for understanding the current issues and debates surrounding the interactions of sport and society.
