Fifty-four male college-aged athletes were recruited and divided into two racket sport groups, including table tennis (TT, n = 22) and badminton (BT, n = 32) groups. Additionally, 22 healthy college students without regular physical activities were randomly selected and served as control subjects. The covert orienting of visuo-spatial attention tasks was used to evaluate the abilities of visual information processing. The data including the reaction time (RT) and response error rate (RER) were recorded and analyzed. Results showed that the athletes in TT and BT groups performed significantly better than the control subjects in the reaction time. In addition, RT of upper limbs, lower limbs, dominant side and non-dominant side was significantly different between the groups, and RT of upper limbs was quicker than that of lower limbs in both groups. Except control group, the RT of dominant side was quicker than that of non-dominant side. In conclusion, elite racket sport players had quicker RT than their peers, but those players seemed not to perform better in RER. It is recommended to recruit more athletes participating in different sports to acquire further information on sport-specific characteristics of visual information processing. Furthermore, it is undisputable for the selection of efficient talent athletes to establish the database of visual information processing abilities in different kinds of sports.","PeriodicalId":338279,"journal":{"name":"Sports & Exercise Research","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130955914","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Purposive sampling was obtained from 210 windsurfers and 143 golfers, who met the criteria for serious leisure. The Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) results showed that all indicators in the measurement models for serious leisure and leisure constraint established in this study were statistically significant. The reliability and validity of constructs and indicators were confirmed. For both activities, serious leisure had a significant negative correlation with leisure constraints. This study concluded that of the six serious leisure indicators defined by Stebbins personal attributes (perseverance, career, personal effort and long-lasting benefits) had a stronger power than social attributes (subculture and identification) for both windsurfing and golf participants. Because of the different distribution of socioeconomic status between windsurfers and golfers, windsurfers considered equipment cost, personal skill and group companionship, which had similar leisure constraint effects on activity participation. Whereas, golfers considered personal skill as the major constraint factor in golf performance. In terms of serious leisure characteristics, windsurfers treated windsurfing as a personal lifetime pursuit (career), while golfers considered overcoming all obstacles in golfing (perseverance) was most important. Finally, specific recommendations regarding future studies on serious leisure and leisure constraint are necessary.","PeriodicalId":338279,"journal":{"name":"Sports & Exercise Research","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115481346","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hence, the purpose of this study was to examine the student-athletes' perceived changes in athletic, psychological, psycho-social, and academic domains, when they transferred from high school to college, along with their perceived barriers, coping resources, and career expectations. Twenty male and 20 female college students (aged 20.3 ± 1.5 years), who won at least the third place at the national college or high school events, were recruited as participants. A semi-structured interview was used to collect the data. Results indicated that participants perceived stable and mature development in athletic achievement and athletic identity, and participation in training became autonomous, when they entered into higher positions. Participants perceived pressure that was mostly from their own expectations, opponents and teammates, instead of coaches. The peer relationship of participants depended on what kind of environment they encountered, and their academic achievements almost remained the similar level as high school. Poor training environments and low academic performance were viewed as the main barriers in athletes' college life, and these challenges were mostly resolved by themselves, senior teammates, coaches and family members. For the future career, most elite athletes set their goals on being a teacher or coach, and some of them were still unclear. Taken together, elite college student-athletes still concerned about their athletic performance, and demonstrated autonomous attitudes toward training and competition. However, most elite athletes have developed a limited self-identity, which is considered to be unfavorable to their broader career choices after retiring.","PeriodicalId":338279,"journal":{"name":"Sports & Exercise Research","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132916863","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many studies found that decreased stabilizing mechanism existed in open and closed loop feedback during pre- and post-landing. However, little is known about the detailed neuromuscular functions in subjects with FAI. The purpose of this study was to determine the patterns of kinematics and electromyography of ankle during a tilted landing task. Twelve subjects with unilateral FAI and 12 age-matched healthy controls were recruited in this study. Researchers measured the 3D ankle kinematics (average and peak joint angle) and electromyography (the peroneus longus, tibialis anterior, gastrocnemius, and soleus muscle) during the titled ground landing task for the periods of 100 ms pre- and 200 ms post-initial contact (IC). The results were as follows: Patients with FAI had significantly higher gastrocnemius activity and the plantar flexion in the affected side compared to the sound side during pre-landing. The peroneus longus activity in the affected side was significantly lower than the sound side during post-landing. However, no differences were found among affected side of FAI patients and both sides of control. These findings conclude that open-loop and closed-loop neuromuscular controls in patients with FAI may be disadvantageous during tilted landing task, but they could develop a compensation action to imitate the tilted landing of the healthy controls.","PeriodicalId":338279,"journal":{"name":"Sports & Exercise Research","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130093353","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to examine whether body displacement generated by the dynamic preparatory stance would affect the perception of spatial accuracy in taekwondo players. Twenty taekwondo players from varsity teams of junior high schools served as the participants in this study. All subjects were above the international second degree Black Belt, and ever attended taekwondo competition of sparring. Four experimental conditions, composed of the preparatory stance (squat and jumping) and target movement (inward and outward) were considered to study the postures. Participants were required to judge the effective kick distance for twelve times in each condition, and total forty-eight trials were carried out. In the results we found that there was a significant interaction between preparatory stance and target moving direction. A simple main effect was found in the target-outward condition, absolute error in squat posture were significantly lower than in jump posture. In contrast, there was no difference in absolute error score between the two kinds of preparatory standing postures in the target approaching condition. It was concluded that squat preparatory stance was sufficient for athletes to perceive critical information for judging the effective kick distances. However, the jumping stance might interfere in the spatial accuracy judgment.","PeriodicalId":338279,"journal":{"name":"Sports & Exercise Research","volume":"144 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129842930","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to ascertain whether exhaustive exercise-induced damage can be prevented by lifelong overexpression of HSP72. Transgenic mice that were heterozygous for a porcine HSP70.2 gene ([+]HSP72) and transgene-negative littermate controls ([-]HSP72) were subjected to an exhaustive exercise protocol. Mice were divided into four groups, including control, HSP72, exhaustive exercise and HSP72 exhaustive exercise groups. Eighty-two min after completion of the exhaustive exercise, animals were sacrificed and different tissues, including brain, heart, liver, lung, kidney and muscle were isolated. Then the levels of HSP72, matrix metalloproteinase (an indicator for inflammatory myopathies), pathological observations and p-P-38 MAP kinase (p-P-38) expressions were determined in all tissues. When exhaustive exercise group or HSP72 exhaustive exercise group underwent an exhaustive exercise test, the latency values (the mean duration of exhaustive exercise onset) for the occurrence of exhaustive exercise was found to be different significantly (82 ± 3 and 110 ± 3 min, respectively). HSP72 exhaustive exercise group underwent a exhaustive exercise test, and had a longer exercise time. Furthermore HSP72 exhaustive exercise group showed significantly increased matrix metalloproteinase levels and p-P-38 expression, whereas morphological damage was significantly decreased compared to exhaustive exercise group. The results suggest that the improvement of inflammation and damage induced by exhaustive exercise in HSP72 overexpressing transgenic mice may be associated with p-P-38 expression.","PeriodicalId":338279,"journal":{"name":"Sports & Exercise Research","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133792855","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
