An Evaluation Of Video Feedback With And Without Video Modeling To Enhance Barbell Squat Form, Alexandra Olles

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Previous studies have assessed the use of video interventions to enhance athletic performance. However, few studies have evaluated the use of video interventions to improve form in weightlifting. The present study evaluated the effects of video feedback (VF) with and without video modeling (VM) to enhance barbell squat form with novice and typically developing adults. The results showed that VF increased performance to near 100% for one participant. For the other VF increased performance to moderate levels and the addition of VF only slightly increased performance

The Rise Of The "Gatecrashers": The Growing Impact Of Athletes Breaking News On Mainstream Media Through Social Media, Michael Nabors

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

This study provided a detailed examination into how gatekeeping theory is losing its traditional impact due to the increased opportunities social media has afforded the modern athlete. For the purposes of this research, those athletes who communicate through social media were able to circumvent traditional mainstream media (MSM) to broadcast their own messaging and as a result, the exclusivity of their respective content is frequently relevant to contemporary news organizations. The research explored how the MSM uses the content it airs from these athletes. An important distinction and goal of this study was to determine whether this messaging used by …


Evaluating The Effectiveness Of Peer-Implemented Video Feedback On Improving Weightlifting Form, Emma Kathleen Cochrane Mar 2021

Evaluating The Effectiveness Of Peer-Implemented Video Feedback On Improving Weightlifting Form, Emma Kathleen Cochrane

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

This study evaluated the effectiveness of behavioral skills training (BST) in teaching peer-trainers to implement video feedback (Study 1). This study also evaluated the effectiveness of peer-implemented video feedback to improve the form of the deadlift movement (Study 2). Peer-implemented video feedback was used to improve the performance of the deadlift across participants. A non-concurrent, multiple baseline across participants design was employed for all participants in Study 1 and Study 2. The results show that BST was effective at teaching peer-trainers to implement video feedback. Peer-implemented video feedback was effective at improvement the form of the deadlift across all participants.Keywords: …
