{"title":"interaction between age and gender in ultramarathon performance times","authors":"Kenneth Madden, B. Feldman","doi":"10.55860/tocy2909","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.55860/tocy2909","url":null,"abstract":"The predictors of ultramarathon performance remain uncertain. Although men tend to have faster finishing times, low entrance rates for women and historical rules banning women from long endurance events suggest social barriers might play a role. The objective of our study was to examine, using data from the Comrades ultramarathon how the gender gap for finishing times changed longitudinally in the various age groups. We hypothesized that this gap would show both a historical decrease, and also be less in older participants. The Comrades data set has the declared gender, age category, running time, year of the event and the direction of the event (up versus down) for each participant. The age categories are Senior (20 to 39 years old), Veteran (40 to 49 years old), Master (50 to 59 years old), and Grandmaster (age greater than 60 years old). The performance gap between women and men was less in the older as compared to the younger age groups (F = 76.51, p < .001). This difference in finishing times between men and women became less over time in our longitudinal analysis (β = -0.377 ± 0.158, p = .021) and was quite small (12 minutes) in the Grandmaster age category.","PeriodicalId":515116,"journal":{"name":"Sustainability and Sports Science Journal","volume":" 32","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141675861","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}

Notably, the recent frequent realignments within the Power Five conferences have led to substantial fluctuations in the annual carbon footprint of football games played between member teams. In this comprehensive study, we collected and analysed conference data spanning the previous decade, as well as forthcoming schedules (wherever available), to evaluate shifts in this carbon emissions footprint. Our findings underscore the potential environmental ramifications of the impending realignment, commencing in 2024, revealing the possibility of an almost twofold increase in carbon emissions.","PeriodicalId":515116,"journal":{"name":"Sustainability and Sports Science Journal","volume":"40 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140238595","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}

The study focused on the six games of the 1995-1996 NBA playoff finals, utilizing an ad hoc instrument with 14 dimensions and 147 categories. The data underwent synchronous analysis to assess the relationship between variables and various success criteria. The results indicated by this data revealed the percentage of Jordan's involvement and his manner of participation. Additionally, a diachronic analysis was conducted using polar coordinate analysis to measure associative consistency among different behaviours. This allowed for the observation and analysis of Jordan's relationship with teammates. The obtained data highlights the significance of dribbling, free throws and fadeaway shot as frequent and effective technical actions used by Jordan. Moreover, they illustrate how Michael was a prominent player in the game, actively contributing to the offensive actions of his team.","PeriodicalId":515116,"journal":{"name":"Sustainability and Sports Science Journal","volume":"74 S4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140238512","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}

Secondly, to analyse the impact of the match outcome (win-loss) on the mentioned dimensions according to the Home-Away condition. The research involved 70 volleyball players (28 home and 42 away) belonging to cadet categories from different volleyball teams competing in the School Sports Program in the province of Araba, specifically in the city of Vitoria Gasteiz. Participants completed the Competitive State Anxiety Inventory in Sport (CSAI-2) (Martens et al., 1990), consisting of 27 items, adapted and validated in Spanish by Capdevila (1997), and subsequently reviewed and used by other researchers (Arruza et al., 2001; Telletxea, 2008). The results show that somatic anxiety significantly decreased between pre and post-match in the home condition, and there are significant differences between home players and away players in response to a victory outcome. The ability of coaches, monitors, and fitness trainers to understand and address athletes' anxiety states is crucial for optimizing their performance and overall well-being, as well as adherence to physical activity.","PeriodicalId":515116,"journal":{"name":"Sustainability and Sports Science Journal","volume":"20 19","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140084632","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}

The study highlights the significance of residents' perceptions regarding the economic and social consequences of hosting sporting events in gaining public support for such endeavours. This research relies on primary data collected from diverse regions throughout Italy via a specialized Google Module, with a particular focus on the intersection of sports and tourism. Notably, 84% of the sampled population expresses support for the idea that hosting sporting events can yield potential economic benefits for the hosting region. While these initial findings are preliminary, they strongly indicate that the population is inclined towards organizing sporting events in their own regions. This inclination creates opportunities to consider long-term investments in hosting sporting events, which can stimulate tourist influx and subsequent economic growth in the involved territories.","PeriodicalId":515116,"journal":{"name":"Sustainability and Sports Science Journal","volume":" 636","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140092445","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}
