Method: Shooting scores and EEG activity in the left and right temporal regions were collected from 20 healthy air pistol shooters (10 assigned to neurofeedback training) before and after a 16-session intervention completed within 6 weeks. Specifically, EEG low-alpha (8-10 hz), high-alpha (10-13 hz) power, and coherence obtained at the T3-Fz and T4-Fz recording sites over three consecutive 1-s intervals prior to trigger pull, were subjected to three separate 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 (Group x Hemisphere x Time x Epoch) ANOVAs. Results: The neurofeedback group exhibited elevated low- and high-alpha EEG power across both temporal regions, but no differences in EEG broad-band alpha coherence, accompanied by enhanced performance after the intervention compared to the control group. Conclusions: The findings support the influence of neurofeedback training on cerebral cortical arousal and performance of a precision-aiming task, however, the influence of the neurofeedback on brain dynamics (i.e. alpha power) extended beyond the targeted region as a nonspecific manifestation of cerebral cortical inhibition leading to neural efficiency at the homologous sites.","PeriodicalId":94191,"journal":{"name":"Research quarterly for exercise and sport","volume":" ","pages":"486-496"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142848739","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}

Participants (N = 660; Girls = 310; Boys = 370; Mage = 64.07, SD = 9.12 months) included children enrolled in general (n = 627) or self-contained (n = 33) classrooms. Participants were categorized as severe DD (%ile = 0-9), DD (10th-27th %ile), or no DD (28th + %ile) based on Test of Gross Motor Development-3, and a logistical regression model was fitted to examine the contributions of variables on gross motor DD. A higher score in perceived movement competence significantly lowered the odds of severe DD (t(654) = -3.24, p < 0.001, Wald = -6.49). A higher score in social skills significantly lowered the odds of severe DD (t(654) = -2.04, p = 0.04, Wald = -4.07). A higher score in problem behavior had a non-significant influence on severe DD (t(654) = -0.05, p = 0.96, Wald = -0.09).

Athletic activity for adults with disabilities requires adaptation to their physical and/or intellectual limitations. However, few adaptive, inclusive sports programs exist for power wheelchair users. Methods: A multi-method, qualitative case-study design was used to describe the experiences of athlete participation in powerful wheelchair adaptive team sports, specifically, soccer and volt hockey. Ten qualitative interviews with 5 players from the US and 5 from Scandinavia explored player experiences with adaptive team sports. The authors assessed overall health once using the World Health Organization Quality of Life Survey (WHOQOL-BREF). Subsequent heart rate data were collected from players while at rest and during adaptive team sport scrimmages. Results: Four qualitative themes described adults with disability experiences: Community; Personal gain; Competition; and Barriers. WHOQOL-BREF means averaged 60 points for all four domains, no significant differences existed between US and Scandinavian players. Heart rate data demonstrated a significant increase in heart rate during scrimmage compared to rest. Conclusion: Adaptive team sports provided participants with valuable social interaction, decreased isolation, and increased opportunities for mentorship and advocacy. Participants reported personal gain related to mental, emotional, and physical benefits not found elsewhere. Competition allowed participants to set both team and individual goals for improvement. Barriers to play concerned equipment, volunteers, and ableist attitudes.","PeriodicalId":94191,"journal":{"name":"Research quarterly for exercise and sport","volume":" ","pages":"607-616"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12310194/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143660133","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In both prepubescent and pubescent groups, Speed Stacking alone did not meet the specific MET thresholds for MVPA. However, the hybrid Stack + Run condition significantly increased METs (up to 5.1 ± 1.2 in prepubescents). Cohen's Kappa revealed poor agreement between MET-based and accelerometer-based intensity categorical classifications across all conditions. Participants, especially younger children, reported Speed Stacking as fun but minimally effortful. Speed Stacking alone fails to meet key pedagogical criteria for physical education, particularly those related to maximizing activity time and MVPA engagement. Given the limited time available in PE settings, alternative activities with higher energy expenditure may offer a more efficient use of instructional time.

The muscle oxygen consumption (mVO2) of the vastus lateralis was measured using continuous-wave NIRS with transient arterial occlusions. The recovery rate of mVO2 was fitted to a mono-exponential curve with the time constant (TC) used as an index of muscle oxidative capacity. The TC obtained from the mono-exponential fit was significantly lower in the bodybuilding group (TC: 23.5 ± 7.1 s) compared to the control group (TC: 40.7 ± 8.3 s), indicating enhanced muscle oxidative capacity (p < .001; effect size: 2.24). Additionally, initial end-exercise mVO2 values were significantly different between the bodybuilding group (3.5 ± 1.3% · s-1) and control group (2.5 ± 1.0% · s-1). The reduced TC observed in the natural bodybuilders group demonstrates that RT focused on enhancing muscle hypertrophy improves the muscle oxidative capacity.

What determines this preference remains unknown. While handedness appears to be an important determinant of ice hockey's lateral preference, proportions demonstrate it cannot be the only influencing factor. The aim of the study was (1) to identify when ice hockey's lateral preference is determined in one's development and (2) empirically identify some of its determinant. The sample consisted of 106 children aged three to six, who were asked to perform a stick-handling task. The goal was to test whether their instinctive lateral preference aligned with their optimal lateral preference (i.e. the one in which they performed best), and whether this alignment was more frequent in older children. Neither chi-square nor segmented regression analyses revealed such alignment. Still, the present results suggest that ice hockey's lateral preference is likely determined around 5 years old. Also, parents were asked to answer a home-made questionnaire, which aimed to identify the potential determinant of their children's lateral preference in ice hockey. Parents identified \"children's own choice\" and parental observation as the main determinants. These two factors thus join handedness (which received further support in the present study) as potential determinants of ice hockey's lateral preference.","PeriodicalId":94191,"journal":{"name":"Research quarterly for exercise and sport","volume":" ","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-08-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144786287","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}

Program staff were valuable for the social support they provided to participants (adoption). However, the program faced barriers with respect to securing dedicated space to conduct the program (implementation) and lacked evidence of long-term maintenance of physical activity participation (maintenance).
