This book was released on 2018-03-09 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The modern world is the outcome of many scientific inventions through centuries. Scientific instruments and machineries big and small have helped to lead our daily life with ease and comfort.To live an easygoing life the modern man is depending mostly upon the machine power for his daily routine, as a result there has been a fall and deterioration in his physical health capacity. Modern man need not work hard like his forefathers for his daily life. So he has become less vigorous and lethargic.If a Nation likes to excel the only short cut is to make the people fitness conscious and encourage them to regularly and vigorously participate in physical fitness programs in order to raise their fitness status. There is a need for broad based physical education and sports program, which can be very effectively done by involving the masses in physical fitness programs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover the secrets of physiology, hydrodynamics, and other scientific aspects of swimming to enhance your skills and speed! Low-impact, beneficial at any age, and just plain fun, swimming is an excellent workout—and the same scientific principles apply whether you’re competing for a medal or practicing your backstroke in the backyard. Each time you suit up and dive in, your body’s moving parts must work together to propel you through dozens of pounds of water resistance, somehow emulating the movements of species that evolved specifically for the water. What are the physical forces at work when you get in a pool, and what determines whether you will sink or swim? In this enlightening and useful volume, contributors break down every aspect of the sport. Swimming Science covers physiology, psychology, and safety, as well as hydrodynamics, nutrition, and technique. Each chapter examines these topics through a series of practical questions: *What are the forces acting on you when you swim, and how do your muscles best generate propulsion against those forces? *How much protein, salt, and iron should a swimmer consume, and how does energy from carbohydrates compare to energy from fats? *How important is the “swimmer’s physique” in competitive swimming, and is technique or strength more necessary for generating speed? These questions and more are examined with the aid of explanatory diagrams and illustrations. No matter whether you swim for exercise, enjoyment, or athletic achievement, Swimming Science adds a new dimension to the sport. “Swimming Science is a wonderful read for those interested in understanding how extraordinary athletes have been able to swim at incredible speed. But it is also an inspiring and potentially transforming read for ordinary people for whom swimming is simply a love story with the water.” —American Journal of Public Health

Download or read book PSYCHOLOGICAL SUPPORT BY COGNITIVE BEHAVIORAL THERAPY FOR DUCHENNE MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY written by Edenilson Brandl and published by Edenilson Brandl. This book was released on with total page 1256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is a life-altering genetic disorder that affects the physical, emotional, and psychological well-being of individuals and their families. It brings with it a range of physical challenges, from progressive muscle weakness to chronic pain, but also a host of emotional and mental health issues, such as depression, anxiety, and feelings of loss or inadequacy. As advances in medical science allow individuals with DMD to live longer, the importance of addressing their mental health becomes increasingly evident. This book aims to bridge the gap between the physical and psychological care of those affected by DMD, offering practical tools through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help manage the emotional and psychological effects of living with this chronic condition. By combining insights into the biology and genetics of DMD with CBT techniques, this book offers a holistic approach to addressing both the physical and mental health challenges that accompany the disorder. The topics within this book range from an introduction to the basics of genetics and epigenetics to specific CBT tools designed to help individuals and their families navigate the emotional complexities of living with DMD. Whether you are a healthcare provider, caregiver, or someone affected by Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, this resource will provide you with strategies for coping with the psychological impacts, fostering resilience, and improving overall well-being. By focusing on both the scientific and therapeutic aspects of DMD, we hope to offer a well-rounded approach to the treatment and support of those living with this condition. This book is designed to be a practical guide, filled with actionable steps, coping mechanisms, and a deep understanding of the cognitive and emotional needs that arise from living with a degenerative condition. We believe that with the right psychological support, it is possible to manage not just the physical aspects of DMD, but also to foster emotional strength and mental resilience. This is not just about surviving with DMD; it is about thriving, finding hope, and cultivating a life filled with meaning and purpose despite the challenges. We sincerely hope that this book will serve as a valuable resource for those affected by DMD and for professionals seeking to enhance their understanding and care for this community.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The World Health Organization recognizes that injuries are the leading cause of death and disability to children after their first birthday. There is also high morbidity associated with injuries sustained in childhood, often affecting people for the rest of their lives. For every child who dies from injury, there are several thousand who require medical care, many who live with varying degrees of disability. Children and adolescents (0–19 years of age) are at increased risk of mortality and morbidity due to injuries such as road traffic, burns, falls, poisoning, drowning, self-harm and interpersonal violence. There are proven ways to prevent many child injuries, yet there are still gaps in our knowledge. By understanding the impact of determinants of health (i.e., the social and economic environment, the physical environment and a person’s individual characteristics and behaviors), effective prevention interventions can be designed and implemented, with a high return on investment. This Special Issue covers an eclectic range of studies, the common goal of which is to reduce the global burden of child injury-related mortality and morbidity.

Download or read book Individual differences in associative learning written by Robin A. Murphy and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2014-09-24 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theories of associative learning have a long history in advancing the psychological account of behavior via cognitive representation. There are many components and variations of associative theory but at the core is the idea that links or connections between stimuli or responses describe important aspects of our psychological experience. This Frontiers Topic considers how variations in association formation can be used to account for differences between people, elaborating the differences between males and females, differences over the life span, understanding of psychopathologies or even across cultural contexts. A recent volume on the application of learning theory to clinical psychology is one example of this emerging application (e.g., Hazelgrove & Hogarth, 2012). The task for students of learning has been the development, often with mathematically defined explanations, of the parameters and operators that determine the formation and strengths of associations. The ultimate goal is to explain how the acquired representations influence future behavior. This approach has recently been influential in the field of neuroscience where one such learning operator, the error correction principle, has unified the understanding of the conditions which facilitate neuron activation with the computational goals of the brain with properties of learning algorithms (e.g., Rescorla & Wagner, 1972). In this Frontiers Research Topic, we are interested in a similar but currently developing aspect to learning theory, which is the application of the associative model to our understanding of individual differences, including psychopathology. In general, learning theories are monolithic, the same theory applies to the rat and the human, and within people the same algorithm is applied to all individuals. If so this might be thought to suggest that there is little that learning theory can tell us about the how males and females differ, how we change over time or why someone develops schizophrenia for instance. However, these theories have wide scope for developing our understanding of when learning occurs and when it is interfered with, along with a variety of methods of predicting these differences. We received contributions from researchers studying individual differences, including sex differences, age related changes and those using analog or clinical samples of personality and psychopathological disorders where the outcomes of the research bear directly on theories of associative learning. This Research Topic brings together researchers studying basic learning and conditioning processes but in which the basic emotional, attentional, pathological or more general physiological differences between groups of people are modeled using associative theory. This work involves varying stimulus properties and temporal relations or modeling the differences between groups.

This book was released on with total page 1477 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spondyloepiphyseal Dysplasia is a complex and life-altering condition, presenting not only significant physical challenges but also emotional and psychological hurdles that can deeply affect one's quality of life. As a genetic disorder primarily impacting bone growth and development, it often leads to chronic pain, physical limitations, and a range of associated health issues. However, the psychological toll of coping with a lifelong condition like Spondyloepiphyseal Dysplasia is often overlooked. This book aims to bridge that gap by providing a comprehensive guide to psychological support, focusing on the integration of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques to help individuals navigate the mental and emotional aspects of living with this condition. The journey of living with a genetic disorder can feel isolating and overwhelming. Patients are not only dealing with physical symptoms but also grappling with the psychological impact of their condition, from feelings of helplessness and frustration to anxiety and depression. The pressure to "stay positive" in the face of constant pain and uncertainty can become an additional burden, as can the fear of discrimination or the worry about passing the condition on to future generations. With so many emotional and cognitive challenges intertwined with the physical symptoms, there is a clear need for a structured, evidence-based approach to mental health support. In this book, we explore how Cognitive Behavioral Therapy—a proven, practical approach to mental health care—can be used to manage the psychological impact of Spondyloepiphyseal Dysplasia. CBT offers powerful tools for addressing distorted thoughts, managing stress, and cultivating resilience in the face of adversity. It helps individuals identify and change negative thought patterns, develop coping skills, and ultimately regain a sense of control over their lives. The first sections of this book provide a solid foundation in the biological and genetic aspects of Spondyloepiphyseal Dysplasia, as well as an introduction to the principles of CBT. From there, we delve into the practical application of CBT techniques, offering specific tools and strategies that patients, caregivers, and therapists can use to alleviate emotional distress and improve overall well-being. The chapters on pain management, which include detailed discussions of various pain sources related to the condition, aim to provide not only physical but also emotional relief through the use of CBT tools. Whether you are a patient, a family member, a healthcare provider, or a therapist, this book is designed to be a comprehensive resource. It guides you through the interconnected world of physical health, genetics, and psychological well-being, providing strategies that are both practical and compassionate. Spondyloepiphyseal Dysplasia presents unique challenges, but with the right tools and support, it is possible to lead a fulfilling and emotionally balanced life. It is my hope that this book serves as a beacon of understanding and empowerment, offering valuable insight into the ways we can address both the body and the mind on the path to healing and acceptance.

Book excerpt: Does an airline pilot really need to surrender his tweezers at airport security when he's about to board an aircraft equipped with an axe on the back of the cockpit door Can a mobile phone really cause a major explosion at a gas station And is there really a good reason why you should be be prevented from swimming in a lake more than a foot deep These rules exist, and they exist in the name of our own protection. But in this engrossing dissection of global health, safety and security regulations, authors Tracey Brown and Michael Hanlon dig a little deeper to discover the real reasons behind many of the instructions we obey without questioning their creators' motives. Their conclusions range from the startling to the staggering, and in presenting them the authors seek to empower readers to question the people and organisations who come up with them in the first place.
