The exercise motivation scale : its multifaceted structure and construct validity

Creator:: Li, Fuzhong
Abstract:: Building upon Deci and Ryan's (1985, 1991) self-determination theory as well as previous empirical work on motivation, the present study was designed to develop a multifaceted 31-item Exercise Motivation Scale (EMS). A series of pilot studies were first conducted in order to generate the 31 scale items. The EMS was...

The effects of high-impact exercise on bone mass in adolescent girls

Creator:: Witzke, Kara A.
Abstract:: We evaluated anthropometric and performance measures which best predict bone mineral density (BMD) in 54 adolescent girls (14.6±0.5y; 22.7±14.0 months past menarche). BMD for the whole body, femoral neck, greater trochanter, lumbar spine (L2-L4), and mid-femoral shaft was assessed using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) (Hologic QDR 1000/W). Whole body lean...

A prospective study of functional performance balance self-efficacy, and bone mineral density in community-dwelling elderly women

Creator:: Gunter, Katherine B.
Abstract:: In the United States, falls are the leading cause of unintentional death with one of every three people 65 years and older falling each year. Falls account for approximately 95% of hip fractures among older adults and falls to the side predominate hip fracture related falls in this population. However,...

Effects of two resistance training protocols on insulin-like growth factors, muscle strength and bone mass in older adults

Creator:: Maddalozzo, Gianni F.
Resource Type:: Dissertation
Full Text:: . Abstract approved: Christine M. Snow, Ph.D. With age, there are marked declines in bone mineral density

Participation of adults with mental retardation in a voluntary physical activity program

Creator:: Stanish, Heidi Isabel
Abstract:: This study compared the effect of two sources of instruction and verbal encouragement on the participation of individuals with mental retardation (MR) in a 10-week physical activity program. Participants were 17 adult employees of a sheltered workshop (5 females, 12 males) ranging in age from 30 to 65 years. The...

The effect of a calcium channel blocker on exercise induced muscle damage and hemodynamic parameters in young, healthy adults

Creator:: Dvorak, Roman
Abstract:: Calcium channel blockers (CCB) was studied extensively in cardiology for their tissue protective effect following myocardial infarction; we hypothesized that administration of a CCB would interfere with the processes that result in exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) and delayed onset muscle soreness. To investigate the effects of a CCB on a...

Kinetic and vibration analysis of off-road bicycle suspension systems

Creator:: Levy, Morris
Abstract:: The aim of the present project was to quantify and compare differences in impact performance and damping effectiveness among various off-road bicycle suspension systems. Two experiments were conducted to compare suspensions. Fork impact performance was tested by measuring peak antero-posterior braking forces and impulses during impact with bumps of 6-...

Task and support surface constraints on the coordination and control of posture in older adults

Creator:: Clark, Sean
Abstract:: Although research evidence clearly indicates support surface properties are a major factor contributing to fall risk among the elderly, investigations examining the influence of variations in surface conditions on the postural control of older adults during task performance have been limited. Thus, the primary purpose of the present studies was...
