Cellular mechanisms of muscle weakness and fatigability in individuals with multiple sclerosis

Creator:: Garner, Dena J. P.
Abstract:: Muscle weakness and fatigue are debilitating symptoms of multiple sclerosis (MS). Approximately 50% of muscle weakness and fatigue have been attributed to deficits within the peripheral nervous system, specifically mechanisms residing in the muscle. The goals of this study were to identify the cellular mechanisms of contraction within the muscle...

Construct validation of self-report with assistance to measure physical activity behavior in adults with intellectual disabilities

Creator:: Johnson, Marquell J.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to examine the evidence of construct validity for self-report with assistance from a secondary source as a measure of physical activity (PA) in adults with intellectual disabilities (ID) in free-living environments. Thirty-seven participants (21 females, 16 males) with mild to moderate ID aged 19-74...

Exploring the physical activity levels of students with mental retardation and students without disabilities in both school and after-school environments

Creator:: Foley, John Thomas
Abstract:: The focus of this research was to gain an understanding of physical activity in elementary school-aged children with mental retardation (MR). The primary purpose of the first study was to investigate physical activity levels of children with and without MR in both school and out of school environments. The secondary...

The role of the paraeducator in the general physical education environment

Creator:: Bryan, Rebecca R.
Abstract:: The use of paraeducators has increased as a main mechanism to include more students with disabilities in multiple settings in the public schools in the U.S. Research has examined the use of paraeducators in typical classroom settings but little is known about their role in physical education. Although the utilization...
