1. During unilateral leg movements performed while standing, it is necessary to displace the center of gravity toward the other leg to maintain equilibrium. In addition, the orientation of particular segments, such as the head and trunk, which are used as reference values for organizing the motor act, needs to be preserved. The aim of the present study was to investigate the coordination between movement, equilibrium, and local posture. 2. Experiments were carried out on standing subjects who were instructed to raise one leg laterally to an angle of 45 degrees in response to a light. Two sources of light placed in front of the subject indicated the side on which the movement was to be performed. Three main aspects of the posturokinetic sequence were investigated in two populations, naive subjects and dancers: 1) The body weight transfer toward the supporting leg was found to have two components: first, a "ballistic" one, initiated by a thrust exerted by the moving leg; and second, an "adjustment" component during which the displacement of the center of gravity (CG) reaches a final position (steady state). An early burst in the gastrocnemius medialis of the moving leg often precedes the onset of the center of pressure change. Two differences between naive subjects and dancers were observed: first, the new CG position was almost reached in one step very near to the end of the ballistic component and required only a short adjustment in dancers, whereas in naive subjects it was reached in two steps, including a much longer adjustment component. Second, the dancers were able to minimize the CG displacement toward the supporting side; this might be because they form a better internal representation of the biomechanical limits of stability because of their long training. 2) The onset of the lateral displacement of the malleolus marker of the moving leg always occurred when the body weight had almost completed its transfer to above the support foot. This shows that the positioning of the CG in a new position compatible with equilibrium maintenance was a prerequisite for the leg movement to be performed. The relative timing of events during the posturokinetic sequence was fairly fixed in the dancers, whereas it varied from one trial to another in the naive subjects. 3) The coordination between movement, equilibrium, and head-trunk orientation involves two control strategies. An "inclination" strategy was used by the naive subjects; this consisted of an external rotation of the supporting leg around the anteroposterior ankle joint axis. A counter-rotation at the neck level ensured the stability of the interorbital line in the horizontal plane.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Judicial psychology is the science that analyzes and tries to understand the criminal phenomenon in general and its determinant factor in particular, by the complexity of factors that generate it and by the diversity of its forms of manifestation. Although the determining factor of criminal behavior is always subjective being generated by the psychic of the offender, this aspect must be correlated with the context in which it manifests itself: social, economic, cultural context etc. Judicial psychology investigates the behavior of the individual in all its aspects, seeking a scientific explanation of the mechanisms and factors enhancing criminal favors, thus enabling the identification of the preventive measures to be taken to reduce the categories of offenses. It studies the psycho-behavioral profile of the offender, identifying the causes that determined its behavior in order to take preventive measures.The domain of judicial psychology is mainly deviance, conduct that departs from the moral or legal norms that are dominant in a given culture. The object of judicial psychology is the criminal act, correlated with the psychosocial characteristics of the participants in the judicial action (offender, victim, witness, investigator, magistrate, lawyer, civil party, educator, etc.). The science of judicial psychology also analyzes how these characteristics appear and manifest themselves in concrete and special conditions of their interaction in three phases of the criminal act: the pre-criminal phase, the actual criminal phase and the post-criminal phase.

This paper will try to explain the relationship between religion and culture. These two topics are the most important items that are inseparable in the history of human civilization from the classical to the modern period. Religion is ahuman belief system that is related to God. If the rule comes from God, then it cannot be said to be a culture, because it is not human creation, but God’s creation that is absolute. Religion is interpreted as part of the life (culture) ofindividuals or groups, each of which has the authority to understand religion and apply it. With the characteristics as indicated by Fazlur Rahman, wherever religion is located, it is hoped that it can provide guidance on values or moralsfor all activities of human life, whether social, cultural, economic or political. Not infrequently also religion becomes a determining factor in the adhesive process of social cultural interaction of the community as well as unifying thenation. Culture and religion are something different but can influence each other so that new cultures or mixing of cultures emerge. The opinion of Endang Saifudin Anshari who said in his writing that religion and culture do notinclude each other, in principle one is not part of the other and each consists of itself. Between them, of course, they are closely related like us, we see in everyday life and human life. As also seen in the close relationship between husband and wife who can give birth to a son but the husband is not part of the wife, and vice versa. Religion and culture are two different things but cannot be separated. The existence of a religion will be greatly influenced and affect thepractice of a religion in question. And conversely, a culture will be greatly influenced by the beliefs of the society in which culture develops. Therefore religion is not only an individual problem but religion is also a social affair whichultimately religious people are not only able to give birth to individual piety but also must be able to give birth to social piety.Key words: Interaction, Religion, Culture,

The learning process in madrasas (Islamic-based elementary schools) is seen as being able to contribute to instilling values and norms in students following Islamic teachings. The issue of organizational culture and teacher performance also becomes a determining factor in creating a quality learning process. In this research, the aim is to determine: 1) the effect of organizational culture on the quality of the learn-ing process; 2) the effect of teacher performance on the quality of the learning process; and 3) the influ-ence of organizational culture on teacher performance. Respondents in this study were all class teachers from three madrasas as a sample representing all public madrasas in the city of Bandar Lampung, Indo-nesia. The results obtained indicate that the variables of organizational culture and the quality of the learning process have an influence, with R squared of 0.67 or 67%, which is classified as moderate. This shows that madrassas have implemented predetermined work culture values, namely: a) integrity, the harmony between correct thoughts, words, and deeds; b) professionalism, working in a disciplined, competent, and timely manner with the best results; c) innovation, perfecting existing and creating new and improved techniques and ideas; d) responsibility, working thoroughly and with thought for the con-sequences; and e) being exemplary, setting a good example for others.

This article reports the findings of a scoping review of the use of small-sided games (SSGs) as a teaching or coaching pedagogy across four game categories. The selection criteria included empirical research available online, published after January 1 2006 and prior to December 31, 2016, in an academic journal. The data were analysed through an inductive thematic approach which generated two themes: Development and Practical considerations. This review found that SSGs can be used as a deliberate pedagogy to elicit physiological responses for a training effect. Given that the variables associated with SSGs include pitch size, game intensity, and number of players, a key determining factor in the implementation of SSGs includes the objective of the practice activity.
