Effects of teaching games for understanding on game performance and understanding in middle school physical education

Creator:: Harvey, Stephen
Abstract:: Most students arrive at game-focused physical education (PE) with neither the skills nor the tactical knowledge to be successful (Metzler, 2000). Although the Teaching Games for Understanding (TGFU) approach can enhance both on- and off-the-ball skills in game play performance (Griffin et al., 1995; Harvey et al., in review, Harvey...

Strengthening school readiness for children at risk : evaluating self-regulation measures and an intervention using classroom games

Creator:: Schmitt, Sara A.
Abstract:: In recent years, self-regulation has emerged as a foundational skill for academic success and well-being. Unfortunately, many children enter kindergarten without the self-regulation skills necessary to succeed. Children from high-risk backgrounds (e.g., low-income) are particularly vulnerable for difficulties in self-regulation development. Given these documented gaps in self-regulation, it has become...

Supporting children who struggle with self-regulation : the role of early family risk and child care quality

Creator:: Pratt, Megan E.
Abstract:: Children's early self-regulation skills have long-term implications for a variety of academic, social, and health outcomes. Unfortunately, children facing multiple family risk factors (e.g., harsh parenting, economic disadvantage) are more likely to struggle with early self-regulation. Despite early disparities in self-regulation, promising intervention evidence suggests that high quality prekindergarten experiences...

Emotion regulation and hyperactivity during the transition into adolescence

Creator:: Lewis, Kendra M.
Abstract:: This study posited that maturational growth in emotion regulation should be associated with reduction in hyperactivity during the transition into adolescence. The longitudinal design assessed emotion regulation and hyperactivity in an urban community sample of children in three waves, at ages 10.6, 11.6, and 12.6 years. A parallel growth curve...

Measures of executive function : convergent validity and links to academic achievement in preschool

Creator:: Duncan, Robert J.
Abstract:: Executive functions (including attentional shifting/flexibility, working memory, and inhibitory control) are strong predictors of children's early school success (Blair & Razza, 2007; Espy et al., 2004). The current study explored questions related to measurement of executive functions in preschool-aged children. Convergent and predictive validity were assessed for two traditional executive...

"And when they woke up... they were monkeys!" Using classroom games to improve preschoolers's behavioral self-regulation

Creator:: Tominey, Shauna L. M.
Abstract:: Behavioral self-regulation has emerged as an important predictor of academic success as early as preschool. Few studies, however, have examined ways to improve children's behavioral self-regulation in preschool, prior to formal school entry. This dissertation includes two studies examining a pilot intervention using classroom games to improve behavioral self-regulation with...

Stressors, resources, perception, and adaptation among military women during deployment

Creator:: Mawdsley, Jennifer Renee
Abstract:: This study explored factors that lead to adaptation among married women in the military during the stressor of deployment. The Double ABCX Model of Family Stress and Adaptation (McCubbin & Patterson, 1 983a, 1 983b, 1 983c) provided a strong theoretical model for this study, on which the empirical model...

Examining the role of relationship characteristics and dynamics on sexual risk behavior among gay male couples

Creator:: Mitchell, Jason W.
Abstract:: Recent estimates indicate that over 50% of gay men acquire HIV from their main sexual partners while in their relationship (Sullivan et al., 2009). Despite this statistic, the majority of research has focused on individual factors as predictors of unprotected anal intercourse (UAI) and not on relationship factors. The few...
