Distributive Justice And Perceptions Of Fairness In Team Sports, Leslie Specht
Distributive Justice And Perceptions Of Fairness In Team Sports, Leslie Specht
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
Distributive justice refers to the perceptions of fairness of outcomes received by individuals for their efforts in organizational settings. Punishment is frequently used to eliminate offensive or undesirable behavior in organizations. The present study was based on distributive justice theory and assessed the effects of severity of punishment and the application of distributive justice rules in a sports team setting. Eight scenarios were developed combining two levels of distribution of punishment (consistent or conditional), two levels of severity of misconduct (severe or moderate), and two levels of severity of punishment (severe or moderate). It was hypothesized that consistent punishment across …

Attitudinal Outcomes Of Punishment Events In Team-Sporting Settings, Jason Tapp
Attitudinal Outcomes Of Punishment Events In Team-Sporting Settings, Jason Tapp
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
The organizational justice perspective suggests that procedural and distributive justice evaluations of a specific punishment event will affect an individual's reactions to the punishment. A 3 (decision-making procedure: autocratic, participative, group) X 3 (punishment severity: low, moderate, high) factorial design was utilized to develop punishment scenarios in team-sport settings which were evaluated by 205 participants. Decision-making procedure and punishment severity both produced significant main effects on evaluations of the fairness of the procedure. Only punishment severity produced a significant main effect on perceptions of the fairness and appropriateness of the punishment, as well as on perceptions of the likelihood of …

The Prevalence-Based Need For Adapted Physical Education Teachers In The United States, Jiabei Zhang
The Prevalence-Based Need For Adapted Physical Education Teachers In The United States, Jiabei Zhang
Human Performance and Health Education Faculty Research
The purpose was to develop a method for projecting the need for adapted physical education (APE) teachers in the public schools in the United States. This method was derived from a prevalence-based model---dividing the nurn- ber of APE students enrolled by the APE student-teacher ratio and then sub- tracting the number of APE teachers hired. This model used the findings of Kelly and Gansneder (1998) that (a) 4% of the school population required APE services and (b) the overall national APE student-teacher ratio was 104: 1. The results revealed a need for 22,116 additional APE teachers nationwide as well as …

The Difference In Pain Tolerance Between Ncaa Division 1-A Male And Female Athletes, Mollie K. Karabatsos
The Difference In Pain Tolerance Between Ncaa Division 1-A Male And Female Athletes, Mollie K. Karabatsos
Theses, Dissertations and Capstones
How well an athlete tolerates pain may aid the athletic trainer in determining a proper rehabilitation protocol for the quickest recovery and return to play after an injury. The present investigation was conducted to determine if there is a difference in pain tolerance between NCAA Division I-A male and female athletes. The subjects consisted of nineteen healthy Division I-A male athletes and nineteen healthy Division I-A female athletes all between the ages of 18 and 23 (N=38). The subjects placed their hand, up to their styloid process, into a one - degree Celsius ice bath for one minute. After one …
The Effects Of A Functional Derotational Knee Brace On The Single-Leg Hop, Timed-Hop, And Stability Of Ncaa Division Ii Athletes, Heidi E. Moran
The Effects Of A Functional Derotational Knee Brace On The Single-Leg Hop, Timed-Hop, And Stability Of Ncaa Division Ii Athletes, Heidi E. Moran
Theses, Dissertations and Capstones
Functional knee braces are often used by athletes following an injury to their anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). However, few athletes are given information as to whether the knee brace will hinder their ability. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a functional derotational knee brace on the single leg hop for distance, timed hop, and overall stability index of athletes. Twelve healthy knees were tested with and with out an off-the-shelf DonJoy Legend knee brace. A matched T-test showed a significant difference between the single leg hop (T = 2.71, p<.05) and timed hop (T=3.23, p<.05) while wearing the knee brace. There was no significance found when examining the stability index while wearing the brace. It was concluded that the functional knee brace decreased the distance of a single leg hop and increased the time it took to perform a timed hop.
Influence Of Examiner Experience On Interrater Reliability Using The Kt2000 Knee Ligament Arthrometer, Michelle Ann Phelan
Influence Of Examiner Experience On Interrater Reliability Using The Kt2000 Knee Ligament Arthrometer, Michelle Ann Phelan
Theses, Dissertations and Capstones
The KT-2000 knee ligament arthrometer is frequently used by clinicians in determining the integrity of the anterior cruciate ligament. Researchers have questioned the reliability in using this device in reporting reliable results. The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of examiner experience in using the K^T-2000 knee ligament arthrometer. Thirteen subjects (age=22-45) were recruited on a voluntary basis for this study. The KT-2000 knee ligament arthrometer was used to measure anterior-posrtior laxity for each patient. Results were measured at 15 and 20 pounds of force for right and left knees. A multiple linear regression ANOVA was used …
Force And Electromyographic Responses To Ergometer Rowing, Darryl A. Turner
Force And Electromyographic Responses To Ergometer Rowing, Darryl A. Turner
Theses: Doctorates and Masters
During many athletic events, fatigue influences the physiological and biomechanical characteristics of performance. For optimal performance in events such as rowing, athletes must maintain a skilfully co-ordinated movement technique. The ability to produce high force outputs during repetitive contractions is influenced by fatigue and dependent on a number of factors including neuromuscular activities. Neuromuscular activation may be expressed by amplitude and frequency characteristics of the electromyographic signal (EMG) sample from the muscle. During sustained isometric contractions, changes in EMG characteristics are related to changes in force, which may be useful in monitoring the fatigue process (Basmajian, 1974: De Luca, 1985). …
