Vertical jump is extremely important both phases of attack and in the defense [6]. So attack and block 45% of all game action, and in terms of the achievement points, they represent 80% [11]. For this, it is important to develop effective training programs that will increase the ability of jumpers to volleyball by coaches. In order to achieve these programs, they need to get information on physical issues in general and volleyball in particular [12]. The main goal was to structure a set of exercises and implement them in volleyball training at the juniors level in order to develop the performance indexes of the vertical jump. Hypothesis research is we assume that by introducing a specially designed exercise complex, we can record higher vertical jump indexes at final testing compared to the initial test. The plyometric method was used to develop the vertical jump, and the methods of research were the method of data organization and presentation, the graphic method, the mathematical-statistical method, the classification/ordination method, the comparison/reporting method. The conclusions of the research were that, following the implementation of the vertical jump development program, the working hypothesis was confirmed, is an increase in vertical jump specific parameters.","PeriodicalId":412284,"journal":{"name":"12th LUMEN International Scientific Conference Rethinking Social Action.

In the present research I have followed the actualization of the psychometric data of the scale, for the population of Romania, as well as the highlighting of some aspects concerning this one’s factorial structure. The last calibration of the questionnaire was made more than 20 years ago , Baban [1]. I have found, for general population, new values concerning the calibration limits as well as a bi-factorial structure of the items, already signaled in previous research, starting from 2002. I have found, also, differences concerning the standards between participants from the emerging-adult and adult categories. I have built up-to-date standards for the global as well as for the factorial score. The psychometric data have highlighted a good stability of the scale in the test-retest and a consistency good enough (α=0,836) which confirms the usage of the results for research as well as for individual evaluations.

At the same time, the roles of the family and the relationships between parteners have changed in Western societies, compared to the traditional model, in which father is being more involved in caring and educating children. Most of the studies that have been done, have construct, validated and/or used tools that measure the relationship between parent and child, but the approach to parental assuming, especially in the context of childbirth, has been neglected. The need to construct this instrument has come from the intention to analyze the extent to which the assuming of the parental role during the transition to parenthood influences marital satisfaction. So, in this study we constructed and validated the Parental Role Assuming (PRA) tool. Exploratory factorial analysis was performed to identify the parental component's factorial structure by using component analysis and varimax rotation. A structure of the construct tool model indicates three factors for the 13 items with a percentage of 59.49 of the total item variance. The validity of the convergent construct was obtained by significant correlations of the scale with the close items of the PCRI instrument [6]. Regarding the fidelity of the instrument, we obtained a total alpha cronbach of 0.81, and for the three subscale the internal consistency ranged from 0.80 to 0.70.","PeriodicalId":412284,"journal":{"name":"12th LUMEN International Scientific Conference Rethinking Social Action.

Kinnunen","doi":"10.18662/lumproc.158","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.18662/lumproc.158","url":null,"abstract":"OECD countries represent advanced market economies. Well-being in OECD countries can be measured by Better Life Index (BLI). In this paper, firstly, two composite indices are built for BLI and Freedom Index (FI) based on principal component analyses of the 24 individual wellbeing variables and 10 economic freedom variables for 2013-2016. The purpose is to study the effect of the composite FI and the individual economic freedoms on the composite BLI. This is done by linear regressions between the indices and, separately, between individual freedoms and the BLI. Also, GDP per capita is included into regressions. Then, multiple correspondence analysis (MCA) is conducted on categorized 2016 data for further insights. The approach leads to several findings: countries in higher quartiles measured by BLI are related to higher freedom index; while GDP per capita explains about 51% (R2) of BLI using a univariate regression, the freedom index explains as much as 69%. Multiple correspondence analysis shows that countries belonging to the two highest quartiles, measured by BLI, are very similar and they are related to very high and high levels of freedoms and GDP, while the countries belonging to lowest and second lowest BLI quartiles form both clearly separate groups and are related to low freedoms and GDP and medium-level freedoms and GDP, respectively. Freedoms related to monetary and fiscal policies were not found significant in line with earlier literature suggesting that the policies can create wellbeing.","PeriodicalId":412284,"journal":{"name":"12th LUMEN International Scientific Conference Rethinking Social Action.

A second contextual element is the stronger recognition of the research potential to build more knowledge for the continuous improvement of the policy making. The paper aims at providing a model for linking the regional policy objectives, instruments, implementation methods and practice with the effects produced in the regions to inform future policies and address better the new challenges raised by the economic development disparities and social inequalities. The research was focused on the eight development regions of Romania and the SMEs support funding provided through the Regional Operational Programme 2017-2013, using an extensive database with more than 2 100 beneficiaries of funding including data on the development projects implemented as well as on their business performance before and after the project implementation. The research looks at regional differences of the distribution of funding, typology of interventions and their effects as well their links with specific features of the regional disparities before and after the programme implementation. Most relevant factors influencing the impact of the funding on the business performance were analysed, including sizes of the business, location, sector, sizes of the funding. The research highlights the need to adapt the approaches and instruments to the multi-dimensional problem of regional disparities using empirical evidence provided through multidisciplinary research.","PeriodicalId":412284,"journal":{"name":"12th LUMEN International Scientific Conference Rethinking Social Action.

Through it, people have understood that this life is not the sole purpose of their existence, that preparing for the encounter of the living God, the One who sacrifices himself on the cross, then to overcome death by the resurrection, is the destination to which we are heading. That is why our entire existence must be placed in the service of God and others, so that we may be placed at the right of the Fair Judge (Matthew 25). This study aims to present some aspects regarding our Latinity and Orthodoxy - as a true bridge between East and West. Also, the influence of the Byzantines in the life of the Romanian people will be analysed as well as the adoption of the Byzantine-Slavonian rite in our medieval culture.

Furthermore, increasing teaching burden for academic workforce may shrink their time dedicated to research, which may also negatively impact the budget. The aim of this paper consists in examining the efficiency of two important dimensions of European universities (teaching and research), together with a possible ranking based on the models we employ for each of these two perspectives. Our target is to also explore any possible compromises between education and scientific research. We employ non-parametric efficiency analysis using FDH (Free Disposal Hull) and Hyperbolic efficiency estimators for a sample of 264 universities for the year 2014, from the RISIS-ETER facility, a database of European Higher Education Institutions and their indicators. Filters are applied to the initial heterogenous dataset in order to obtain adequate efficiency models that analyse universities performance from both research and teaching perspectives. Teaching efficiency is defined by how well the institutions manage to use their government allocation and academic staff in producing the maximum amount of undergraduate degrees, whereas the research efficiency is given by how well the universities perform in maximizing their research outputs considering only the personnel involved in research activities. The results illustrate that many institutions are focusing into a single direction and some efforts need to be undertaken in order to improve the academic 1 The Bucharest University of Economic Studies, Economic Cybernetics and Statistics Doctoral School, Bucharest, Romania, simonaegradinaru@gmail.com. 2 Department of Economic Informatics and Cybernetics, Bucharest, Romania, anamaria.aldea@csie.ase.ro. 3 The Bucharest University of Economic Studies, Economic Cybernetics and Statistics Doctoral School, Bucharest, Romania, levida.besir@gmail.com. 4 The Bucharest University of Economic Studies, Economic Cybernetics and Statistics Doctoral School, Bucharest, Romania, alexandru.coser@gmail.com. * Corresponding author.

We have conducted our study was on a 24 students sample practicing football in the representative team of the University Politehnica of Bucharest. The athletes were organized in two groups: the experimental group (12 subjects) and the control group 12 (subjects). The age of those taking part in the study ranges from 19 to 23 years old. The research took place between October 17 and March 23, 2018, during which we used, in training the subjects, a set of methods and means to strengthen the technical element, the shoot to the gate finalization. In the training process, the experimental group specifically practiced, 20 minutes in each lesson, programs based on strengthening the shoot to the gate finalization while the control group followed the classical training program. The main research methods we utilized are these: the scientific documentation, the experiment, the observation, the graphic method and the statistical mathematical interpretation. Following the research conducted and by processing the results obtained, we observed outstanding progress in final test compared to initial test. The comparison of the results obtained in the final evaluation shows statistically significant differences between the two groups.
