In this study, we continue to explore the junior-to-senior transition process in Swedish ice hockey by validating the empirical model ‘Phases in the junior-to-senior transition of Swedish ice hockey players’ created in our previous study.1 More specifically, we collected opinions and critical reflections of 15 senior professional players and expert coaches about the empirical model as a whole and about the content of each junior-to-senior transition phase and then converted the original empirical model into its validated version. Professional ice hockey players and first league coaches formed three focus groups, while three senior coaches were interviewed individually. All were encouraged to critically reflect on the empirical model. The data from all sources were analysed following guidelines of the thematic (deductive) analysis complemented by quantitative measurements of the participants’ agreement with the content of the empirical model. Results supported the sequence and designations of the junior-to-senior transition phases (i.e. preparation, orientation, adaptation and stabilization), as well as duration of the junior-to-senior transition (i.e. up to four seasons) outlined by the empirical model. We were also able to validate the psychological content (perceived demands, resources, barriers, coping strategies and outcomes) of each transitional phase. Accordingly, five themes were reformulated, 17 new themes were added and some themes were re-ordered during the conversion of the original empirical model into the validated model. To improve the readability of the validated model (from the bottom to the top), we also re-ordered sub-categories describing the psychological content of each junior-to-senior transition phase. We conclude by discussing the validated model in relation to theoretical frameworks and previous research and providing some methodology, future research and practice-oriented reflections addressed to researchers, coaches and sport psychology practitioners.

Objective: The journey into adulthood is a critical phase of profound psychological and social change, especially for children with long-term care needs, including those with Intellectual Disability (ID). : In this paper, we aim to describe the clinical picture of patients with mild to profound ID during the transition from childhood to adulthood. Method: We explored the prevalence of all comorbidities in 53 patients with mild to profound ID before and after transition. We collected information on the services taking care of the person at the time of follow up and about the actual occupation, if any. Results: Out of the whole sample of patients, 79% were in touch with an adult health service after transition and about one fifth required care from more than one institution. 81% were currently employed in centres managed by health services. The distribution of main diagnosis and comorbidities both changed (χ2(1, n=42)=116.7; p<.001 and χ2 (1, n=42)=267.4; p<.001, respectively) after the transition to adulthood. Transition to adulthood was characterized by the emergence, as main diagnosis, of psychiatric disorders, as well as by a slight increase of frequencies of comorbidities. Conclusions: After transition from childhood to adulthood a change in epidemiology was observed. This may reflect a clinical evolution or a discontinuity in the use of diagnostic labels between paediatric and adult committed services. We propose suggestions for better management of the transition phase.

Logarithmic Growth

Protoplasts prepared from cells of different stages within the logarithmic growth phase and from transition phase showed different degrees of colony-forming ability. The cells yielding higher frequency of protoplast formation also gave protoplast with a high degree of colony-forming ability.
