The Development Of A Physical Education Teachers' Physical Activity Self-Efficacy Instrument, Jeffrey J. Martin, Pamela Hodges Kulinna

Kinesiology, Health and Sport Studies

In the present investigation a questionnaire was developed to assess physical education teachers' self-efficacy for teaching classes in which their students were engaged in high levels of physical activity (i.e., at least 50% of class time).

Common Stressors For Aging Adults, Kathy Bosch

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

This does not mean older adults will never experience any problems or diseases, but that symptoms will be treated and controlled. Mental health problems should not interfere with leading a rewarding life.
