Holistic Conception

The book, written by Adrian Majuru, is devoted to the life and work of Francisc Iosif Rainer (1874-1944), a professor of anatomy in Interwar Bucharest and Jassy who initiated a modern school of anthropology in Romania. Rainer would impose an holistic conception of anthropology, underlying the 'close relationship between biology, social environment and culture'. Francisc Rainer contributed to the establishment of the Institute of Physical Education and organized the teaching of artistic anatomy at the Academy of Fine Arts in Bucharest.

This article traces the development of dance as an academic discipline from its infancy in physical education programs to its present state, noting the significance of the burgeoning field of dance science and how it is a catalyst for the reconnecting of dance to physical education. The academic discipline of dance originated in the early 20th century in American academe, particularly in women’s physical education programs. By the 1920s, dance emerged as a discrete discipline with Margaret H’Doubler’s founding of the first baccalaureate degree in dance at the University of Wisconsin. By the 1960s, the academic discipline of dance had shifted from its original mission of movement education for everyone to focus more on professional dance training for highly skilled performers. This philosophical shift saw many dance programs move from homes in physical education to the fine arts. During this time, dance also saw an increasing disciplinary emphasis on choreographic and performance projects, a trend still evident today. Dance science began to develop as an academic field in the early 1980s, and shortly after publications and conferences in the area were born. The professional association the International Association for Dance Medicine and Science was founded in 1990. With dance science’s emergence, dance and physical education began to realign, albeit often in departments of kinesiology. Today, with the development of dance science as a burgeoning field, dance and kinesiology are coming full circle, rejoining through their historical roots.

Activity Questionnaire

The research was conducted on a randomly chosen group of 916 students aged 16-18 in Lublin Province, Poland. The research was carried out in 2016 using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire, the extended version, and supplemented with additional questions regarding the students’ assessment of physical education lessons. The majority of students (77.4%) meet the requirements for a high level of physical activity, with the remaining 16.5% demonstrating moderate and only 6.1% − low level. There were no significant reductions of physical activity visible in the older age group, although in subsequent periods (in 16-18 year-olds), it was successively lower. The mean level of total physical activity in boys was 65566 MET[1] - min week, and it was significantly higher than in girls, i.e. 5345,5 MET-min/week. The vast majority of students (92.2%) participate in school physical education classes, and over 75% think that they like these activities. Students enrolled in physical education classes demonstrate a higher level of total physical activity (5960.5MET-min/week), in contrast to the non-participating ones (5637,2MET-min/week); however, no significant relationship has been found. Furthermore, it has been shown that girls and boys were willing to get involved in different physical activities. Apart from PE classes, boys would mainly get involved in football (23.2%), volleyball (15.5%), table tennis (13.0%), and swimming (12.5%). Girls would instead choose volleyball (14.7%), football (12.6%), swimming (9.4%) and gymnastics (8.9%). This favourable image of physical activity of students in the Polish schools in Lublin Province can contribute to the discussion of the place of physical activities in the modern school educational process.

Environmental Demands

Daily stressors, or hassles, refer to the everyday environmental demands that constitute a threat or challenge, or exceed an individual’s biological or psychological capacities. Increasing evidence suggests that daily stressors have a significant impact on adolescents’ educational outcomes, for example, performance, wellbeing and negative attitudes toward school; however, there is limited research examining the concept of common stressors in physical education (PE) lessons. As early adolescence is a developmental period associated with decreased engagement in PE, it is important to identify the environmental stressors that may be associated with increased disengagement. The study included 54 secondary school students and six PE teachers from five schools in the English Midlands. Semi-structured interviews and focus groups were conducted and a thematic analysis was applied to the interview transcripts. Three higher order themes were identified from the data: the social environment; the physical and organisational environment; and the performance environment. Common stressors within the social environment included: interpersonal transactions between peers; differences in effort levels during PE; and working outside one’s peer group. Stressors within the physical and organisational environment consisted of environmental situations within the changing facilities and the availability of activities. Finally, performance environment stressors included: situations involving the difficult acquisition of physical skills; and situations where physical appearance and physical competencies were exposed. The study extends previous findings by identifying potentially threatening and frustrating environmental demands that have not been identified in the previous literature. The current study is the first to explore the typical stressors that are experienced by students in PE.

The present work details the methodological process for creating a tool for the identification of COVID-19 potential contagion situations in sport and physical education before, during, and after practice and competition. It is a tool that implies an educational and methodological process with all the agents of the sports system. This tool identifies the large number of interactions occurring through sports action and everything that surrounds it in training, competition, and its organization. The aim is to prepare contingency protocols based on an exhaustive analysis, risk detection, and proposal of contingency measures trying to reduce the residual risk to a minimum. In a second part, the results of the implementation of this tool in the sports system of Galicia (Spain) are shown revealing the change in perception about the coronavirus transmission in sport of the technicians and the problem for returning to sport for athletes under 18 years.

Over de betekenis van het werk van Jan van Scorel omstreeks I539 voor oudere en jongere tijdgenoten (3)

AbstractSince 1931 Jan Vermeyen's teacher has been thought to have been Jan Gossaert rather than Jan van Scorel. Yet the Holy Family in Haarlem (Fig. I), which may claim to be his earliest known work, clearly shows the influence of both these artists. The main obstacle to the acceptance of a close relationship between Vermeyen and Scorel was a problem of chronology: Scorel returned from Rome to settle in Utrecht in I524, while Vermeyen was supposed already to have entered the service of Margaret of Austria as a court painter in I525. However, the documentary evidence available allows of a somewhat different interpretation. It is likely that Vermeyen did not get his official appointment until May I529 and that he moved from Utrecht to Malines during the course of I527, possibly at the same time as Jan van Scorel left for Haarlem and because of the same unrest in Utrecht. A petition handed in by Vermeyen after the death of Margaret of Austria on 27 November I530 mentions a number of works that must have been executed before that date. These include not only two portraits of Erard de la Marck, Bishop of Liege (cf.Fig. 2), but also one of a certain Jean Denis, which is stated in the inventory of the princess's estate to have been done by candlelight. In view of the description of this lost work, the Marriage at Cana recently acquired by the Rijksmuseum (Figs. 4 and 5) may well be a relatively early work. A date in the early I530's would be in keeping with the costume of the lute player (a portrait?) shown there, while the style of painting is close to that of the portrait dated I53 I of Felipe de Guevara (see Note 6) . Also very similar in style, particularly in the use of chiaroscuro, is a Head of a Woman, a fragment in the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna (Fig. 6) which is attributed to Jan van Scorel, but differs from his work precisely in the greater contribution the chiaroscuro makes to the suggestion of plasticity. A Holy Family by the Fire in Vienna (see Note I9), though also dealing with the effect of artificial lighting, would seem to represent a somewhat later phase in that the modelling of the figures lends them a relief-like character. There has been a tendency to date this phase around I545, i.e. in the proximity of Vermeyen's etchings on which the date, if there is one, is invariably I545 or I546. Some of the etchings do bear a close resemblance to the Holy Family by the Fire, but it should be borne in mind that they may well reproduce much earlier works, as is demonstrably the case in quite afew instances: a portrait of before I530 (Note 3), a type of woman already found in the early Holy Family in Haarlem (Note II) and motifs that Vermeyen must have recorded during his visits to Tunis in I534-5 and Spain in I539 (Note 25) . Since the etchings are not, therefore, reliable documents for dating other works in a similar style, a painted copy of a lost work from the Tunisian campaign takes on an added significance. This is Rubens' copy of the portrait of Mulay Ahmed, now in the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston (Fig. g) . Although Rubens' interpretation of Vermeyen's original no doubt contributes to the powerful qualities of his copy, something of the firm plasticity and colourful appearance of the sitter must be due to the protoope and may be taken as typical of Vermeyen's style of the mid-I530's. Thus like Maerten van Heemskerck, though superior to him as a painter, Vermeyen seems to have broken away from Jan van Scorel's influence in the course of the I530's.

In this paper, we investigate the dynamics of a mathematical model of obesity population within fluctuating social environment. A stochastic differential equation model is constructed by perturbing two social related parameters of the deterministic model with white noise terms characterized by Gaussian distribution having zero mean and unit spectral density. In order to compute the numerical solution of the stochastic models Euler-Maruyama numerical method is used. Confidence intervals for the overweight and obesity childhood population are computed using Monte Carlo method. Analysis of the numerical results reveals that small perturbations on the parameters are not a major driving force for dynamical transitions from the underlying deterministic model. In addition, numerical results indicate a close relationship between the amplitude of the fluctuation of the social environment parameters and the variability of forecasts for the incidence of the obesity in the population.

Education Of Students

For modern physical education of students is characterized by significant psychological stress. Teachers and psychologists need to prepare students not only in psychological and physical condition, but also to help confront many factors that arise during the learning process in various situations that cause inconsistencies in the functions of the body and its nervous system. The accumulated evidence testifies to the close relationship between the spiritual and physical state of man, as well as the ability to use special physical techniques and self-suggestion to influence the mental and physiological functions of the body. Many authors in various fields have studied the methods of using physical education to improve the psychological and pedagogical foundations of physical education of students and their professional training as a specialist [1.3] Effective means of improving the psychological and pedagogical foundations of physical education and the formation of students' individual physical culture are appropriate norms, which are based on modern principles of physical education [4]. One of the main is the principle of priority of needs, motives and interests of the individual, which involves building a system of physical education in general and individual programs taking into account individual and group, social and spiritual needs of people, as well as forming and understanding the concept of "individual physical culture" on physical education and motivation to engage in physical culture.
