To Travel Or To Compete? Motivations Of Masters Swimmers, Nancy M. Hritz, William D. Ramos Nov 2008

To Travel Or To Compete? Motivations Of Masters Swimmers, Nancy M. Hritz, William D. Ramos

International Journal of Aquatic Research and Education

The underlying motivations behind participating in sports event such as a swim meet are complex and varied especially for adult participants. These motivations may be related to the thrill of the competition, or the excitement of traveling to a new pool or aquatic facility. Investigation of motivations behind participation can enable aquatic facility managers to create memorable experiences that boost participation and encourage repeat visitors that have social and economic benefits for the aquatic facility and event. We motivations of Masters swimmers using the Participant Motivation Questionnaire (PMQ) modified for swimmers and the Travel Career Ladder (TCL) at the 2006 …

Effectiveness Of A Targeted, Peer-Driven Skin Cancer Prevention Program For Lifeguards, Dawn Michelle Hall, Tom Elliott, Eric Nehl, Karen Glanz Nov 2008

Effectiveness Of A Targeted, Peer-Driven Skin Cancer Prevention Program For Lifeguards, Dawn Michelle Hall, Tom Elliott, Eric Nehl, Karen Glanz

International Journal of Aquatic Research and Education

Lifeguards working at outdoor pools typically receive high amounts of sun exposure, increasing their risk for developing skin cancer. This study evaluates the effectiveness of a targeted, peer-driven intervention for skin cancer prevention among lifeguards. Nine pools received the targeted intervention, Pool Cool Plus, and five received the standard Pool Cool prevention program. Lifeguards completed surveys at the beginning and end of the summer. Lifeguards in both the targeted intervention and standard program groups increased their sun safety practices and reported more sun-safe pool policies and environments. Sunburn rates decreased among lifeguards participating in Pool Cool Plus. Future research should …


Drowning Survival In Icy Water: A Review, Stathis Avramidis, Ronald Butterly Nov 2008

Drowning Survival In Icy Water: A Review, Stathis Avramidis, Ronald Butterly

International Journal of Aquatic Research and Education

We conducted an extensive literature review using the search terms of “drowning” and “hypothermia” to discover the major factors related to differences in survival rate especially associated with hypothermic effects. Studies indicated that some differences in drowning survival could be identified associated with age, sex, length of submersion, reduced core body temperature, and quality of cardiopulmonary respiratory care. The variability of results associated with the large number of studies prevented us from making any recommendations about whether hypothermia can improve survival among either children or adults.


The Teaching Of Swimming Based On A Model Derived From The Causes Of Drowning, Robert Keig Stallman, Malfrid Junge, Turid Blixt Nov 2008

The Teaching Of Swimming Based On A Model Derived From The Causes Of Drowning, Robert Keig Stallman, Malfrid Junge, Turid Blixt

International Journal of Aquatic Research and Education

This paper proposes that the teaching of beginner swimming should be organized according to the causes of drowning. We surveyed drowning reports, interviewed drowning survivors, and observed simulated drowning victims to determine common characteristics associated with drowning. We also reviewed 25 swimming instructional programs offered by well-recognized national programs from 18 separate countries and identified 8 common beginning swimming skills. These skills could be closely connected with the causes of drowning. We proposed a definition for being able to swim that should be given common international acceptance so that learning to swim can actually provide skills needed for preventing drowning.
