Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to develop and validate a psychometric instrument called the Ottawa Mental Skills Assessment Tool (OMSAT), which attempted to determine the relative importance of mental skills required to achieve levels of excellence in sport performance. A review of the literature of sport psychology experts Anshel, (1987); Mahoney, (1989); Mahoney, Gabriel & Perkins, (1987); Orlick (1980, 1986, 1992); Seiler, (1992) and Vealey, (1988) was completed and served as the basis for the creation of the OMSAT questionnaire. The questionnaire was initially comprised of 14 scales includi

Abstract:

The Ottawa Mental Skills Assessment Tool (OMSAT) was devised by Salmela and colleagues (1992) to measure a broad range of athletes' mental skills. Bota (1993) empirically tested the first and second versions of the OMSAT and recommended that the instrument be further revised. The purposes of this study were to create an enhanced version of the OMSAT (OMSAT-3), assess its psychometric properties, and determine the relative importance of each mental skill presented in the inventory. The OMSAT-3 was comprised of 85 questions, six of which measured social desirability, and 12 mental skills scales

Abstract:

A sample of 22 registered nurses participated in an educational program to learn comprehensive physical assessment skills. This study investigated the effects of that program on their nursing practice. Administration of tests and questionnaires provided a measure of the: (a) use of physical assessment skills; (b) knowledge of physical assessment; (c) changes in nursing practice since learning the skills; (d) barriers to the use of the skills. The model used for the program's curriculum development was adult learning theory. The curriculum focused on this theory's key aspects. Namely, adult stu

Abstract:

Despite widespread recognition by science educators, researchers and K-12 frameworks that scientific inquiry should be an essential part of science education, typical classrooms and assessments still emphasize rote vocabulary, facts, and formulas. One of several reasons for this is that the rigorous assessment of complex inquiry skills is still in its infancy. Though progress has been made, there are still many challenges that hinder inquiry from being assessed in a meaningful, scalable, reliable and timely manner. To address some of these challenges and to realize the possibility of formative

The purposes of this study were to (1) examine the effects of criterion-referenced (i.e., Programmed Practice Sheet or PPS) and norm-referenced (i.e., standardized) skill assessments on the situational motivation of junior high school physical education students (N = 507), (2) determine if student task and ego dispositions could be affected by the type of skill assessment administered, and (3) determine if having choices of skill level affects student situational motivation and perception of autonomy support. Student situational motivation, task and ego disposition, and sense of autonomy were

Abstract:

Background: Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) describes children with a difficulty to acquire age-specific motor skills. Although there is a significant body of literature addressing developmental and cognitive issues in children with DCD, few studies have actually examined the associations between DCD, physical activity and physical fitness. Therefore, the aim of the present research work was to assess these associations in a series of four successive studies which were set: a) (study 1) to estimate DCD prevalence rates in Greek children and investigate whether these children exhibit

The purpose of this research was to discover the extent to which practising registered nurses in the ACT undertake physical assessment.

It was directed also at discovering the extent to which the practising registered nurse would be prepared to undertake workshops on the subject, so that, if appropriate, a core of registered nurses could be provided to act as the role-models and to create the nec

Abstract:

Increased levels of obesity, particularly among American youth, have consistently been cause for concern over the last few decades. Additionally, the amount of time youth spend being active throughout the day has consistently decreased. Physical activity levels among school-aged children in America are effected by any number of reasons, but this study points to the possibility of time spent being physically active during the school day having the greatest effect on a student’s overall level of physical activity. Increased pressures from different entities on local schools to improve student pe

Abstract:

In Sweden, physics education is supposed to contribute to developing the stu-dent's experimental skill. After a physics course, students should be able to plan, execute and evaluate an experiment. In this study, seven physics teachers are interviewed about their reasoning considering assessment of experimental skills. The study aims to describe teachers' stories about their work with as-sessment of laboratory work. The results of the study show a spread of how teachers, according to them-selves, are dealing with the assessment of experiments. Some teachers work thoroughly with getting a basis

The physical activity itself has a positive effect on our body in many ways, on the contrary the lack of it has a negative effect. In the younger school age there should be a diversity of physical activity and it should often vary. If, in this period of age, the physical activity would be in the form of specialized sport training with dominant asymetric load without any compensating activity, the effect of tha
