Insatisfacción corporal, ortorexia y dependencia al ejercicio en corredores amateur de resistencia / Insatisfação corporal, ortorexia e dependência do treino em corredores amadores de resistência / Body image dissatisfaction, orthorexia and training addiction in amateur endurance runners

El objetivo del estudio fue conocer si existe relación entre la insatisfacción corporal, la ortorexia y la dependencia al ejercicio en una muestra de corredores de resistencia aficionados, así como examinar las variables psicológicas como la identidad, el perfeccionismo y el enfoque a través de la comparación entre grupos y la obtención de perfiles. Para ello, 129 corredores participantes en la edición XIII del Trail 7 Colinas de Tartessos en 2023 (96 hombres y 33 mujeres; media de edad M=45.5; DT=8.4), completaron el cuestionario de imagen corporal (Body Shape Qustionnaire, BSQ 14), la ortorexia 11 (ORTO-11), el Inventario de perfeccionismo multidimensional en el Deporte en competición (MIPS), la Escala de medición de identidad deportiva (AIMS), el cuestionario ad hoc de Satisfacción Manifiesta (CS), el cuestionario de Percepción de Éxito (POSQ). También se registraron los datos y parámetros como corredor. Los resultados mostraron que el 15% de los corredores presentaron insatisfacción corporal y el 16 % ortorexia. Además, el 13 % de los corredores presentaron ambas manifestaciones. Se encontró una correlación significativa positiva entre la insatisfacción corporal y la ortorexia. Ambas variables también presentaron correlaciones negativas con la satisfacción manifiesta sobre la imagen corporal. Sin embargo, no se encontró relación con la dependencia del ejercicio, aunque los componentes de esta última se relacionaron con variables psicológicas; el componente positivo mostró una correlación negativa con el perfeccionismo, y el componente negativo se relacionó positivamente con la identidad deportiva. Ambas variables resultaron relevantes en la comparación de los grupos en relación a la ortorexia, y de manera separadas en la discriminación; el perfeccionismo sobre la insatisfacción manifiesta y la escala de identidad sobre la ortorexia.(AU)

The aim of the present study was to find out whether there is a relationship between body dissatisfaction, orthorexia, and exercise dependence in a sample of amateur endurance runners, as well as to examine psychological variables such as identity, perfectionism, and focus by comparing groups and obtaining profiles. To this end, 129 runners participating in the XIII edition of the Trail 7 Colinas de Tartessos in 2023 (96 men and 33 women; mean age M=45.5; SD=8.4), completed the Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ14),the Orthorexia 11 (ORTO-11), the Multidimensional Perfectionism Inventory in Competitive Sport (MIPS), the Athletic Identity Measurement Scale (AIMS), the ad hoc Satisfaction Questionnaire (CS), the Perception of Success Questionnaire (POSQ). Data and parameters as a runner were also recorded. The results showed that 15% of the runners presented body dissatisfaction and 16% orthorexia. In addition, 13 % of the runners had both manifestations. A significant positive correlation was found between body dissatisfaction and orthorexia. Both variables were also negatively correlated with expressed satisfaction with body image. However, no relationshipwas found with exercise dependence, although components of exercise dependence were related to psychological variables; the positive component showed a negative correlation with perfectionism, and the negative component was positively related to sports identity. Both variables were relevant in the comparison of the groups in relation to orthorexia, and separately in discrimination,perfectionism on manifest dissatisfaction and the identity scale on orthorexia.(AU)

O objectivo do estudo foi analisar se existe uma relação entre insatisfação corporal, ortorexia e dependência do exercício numa amostra de corredores amadores de endurance, bem como analisar variáveis psicológicas como a identidade, o perfeccionismo e o foco, através da comparação entre grupos e da obtenção de perfis. Para o efeito, 129 corredores participantes na XIII edição do Trail 7 Colinas de Tartessos em 2023 (96 homens e 33mulheres; idade média M=45.5; DP=8.4), preencheram o Body ShapeQuestionnaire(BSQ 14), o Orthorexia 11 (ORTO-11), o Multidimensional Perfectionism Inventory in Competitive Sport (MIPS), a Athletic Identity Measurement Scale (AIMS), o ad hoc Satisfaction Questionnaire (CS), e o Perception of Success Questionnaire (POSQ). Foram igualmente registados os dados e os parâmetros enquanto corredores. Os resultados mostraram que 15% dos corredores apresentavam insatisfação corporal e 16% ortorexia. Para alémdisso, 13% dos corredores apresentavam ambas as manifestações. Foi encontrada uma correlação positiva significativa entre a insatisfação corporal e a ortorexia. Ambas as variáveis estavam também negativamente correlacionadas com a satisfação expressa com a imagem corporal. No entanto, não foi encontrada qualquer relação com a dependência do exercício, embora os componentes da dependência do exercício estivessem relacionados com variáveis psicológicas; a componente positiva evidenciou uma correlação negativa com o perfeccionismo, e a componente negativa estava positivamente relacionado coma identidade desportiva. Ambas as variáveis foram relevantes na comparação dos grupos em relação à ortorexia, e separadamente na discriminação; o perfeccionismo na insatisfação manifesta e a escala de identidade na ortorexia.(AU)

The Relative Age Effect on YoungAthletes of Para-Athletics: Birth quartile analysis and performance in individual athletic events / El Efecto de la Edad Relativa en los Atletas Jóvenes de Paratlético: Análisis de cuartil denacimiento y desempeño en eventos atléticos individuales / O Efeito da Idade Relativa em Jovens Atletas de Paraatletismo: Análise do quartil de nascimento e do desempenho em eventos individuais de atletismo

El Efecto de la Edad Relativa (EER) es un fenómeno caracterizado por una sobrerrepresentación significativa de atletas nacidos en los primeros meses del año competitivo en la misma categoría deedad que se ha observado en categorías juveniles de atletismo. Sin embargo, hay una falta de investigación para investigar este fenómeno y su relación con el deporte para, y no está claro si este efectoestá presente en los jóvenes atletas. Por lo tanto, nuestro estudio examinó la existencia de EER en jóvenes atletaspara-atléticos (categorías U16, U18 y U20) y el rendimiento en eventos deportivos individuales según el cuartil denacimiento (Q1, Q2, Q3 yQ4). Las fechas de nacimiento se recogieron de 700 jóvenes atletas masculinos de deportes para que participaran en eventos deportivos individuales entre 2018 y 2019 en las categorías U16, U18 y U20. En resumen, se observó una distribución desigual de las fechas de nacimiento por cuartil cuando un mayor número de jóvenes para-atletas nació en el primer trimestre del año para U16 (χ²3= 18.785; p = .0003; Phi efecto = 0.45), U18 (χ²3= 6.846; p= .05; Phi efecto = 0.17), y U20 (χ²3= 10.156; p = .017; Phiefecto = 0.17). Sin embargo, cuando comparamos el desempeño de los atletas por evento (eventos de atletismo) y por separado por cuartil, no se encontró diferencia significativa (p> .05). En conclusión, nuestro estudio evidenció el papel influyente de laedad relativa en atletismo, pero parece que este fenómeno no está relacionado con el rendimiento en atletismo.(AU)

The Relative Age Effect (RAE) is a phenomenon characterized by a significant over-representation ofathletes born in the first months of the competitive year in the same age category that has been observed in athletics juvenile categories. However, there is a lack of research to investigate this phenomenon and its relationship with para-sport, and it isnot clear whether this effect is present in young para-athletes. Thus, the present study aims to examine the existence of RAE in young para-athletics athletes (U16, U18, and U20 categories) and the performance in individual athletic events according to the birth quartile (Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4). Birth dates were collected from 700 young male athletes from para-sport who participated in individual athletic eventsbetween 2018 and 2019 in the U16, U18, and U20 categories. In summary, unequal distribution of birth dates per quartile was observed where a greater number of young para-athletes was born in the Q1 of the year for U16 (χ²3= 18.785; p = .0003; Phi effect = .45), U18 (χ²3= 6.846; p= .05; Phi effect = .17), and U20 (χ²3= 10.156; p= .017; Phi effect =.17). However,when we compared the performance of the athletes by event (track and field events) and separately by quartile, no significant difference was found (p> .05). In conclusion, our study evidenced the influential role of relative age in track and field para-athletes, but it seems that this phenomenon is not related to performance in track and field events.(AU)

O Efeito da Idade Relativa (EIR) é um fenômeno caracterizado por uma significativa representação de atletas nascidos nos primeiros meses do ano competitivo na mesma faixa etária que tem sido observada em categorias juvenis de atletismo. No entanto, há ainda uma lacuna em termos de investigaçãopara analisar esse fenômeno e sua relação com o para-desporto. Assim, o obejtivo do presente estudo foi analisar a existência de EIR em atletas jovens de para-atletismo (categorias Sub-16, Sub-18 e Sub-20) e sua relação com o desempenho em eventos atléticos individuais de acordo com o quartil de nascimento (Q1, Q2, Q3 e Q4). As datas de nascimento foram recolhidas de 700 jovens atletas do sexo masculino de paradesporto que participaram de eventos de atletismo individuais entre 2018 e 2019 nas categorias Sub-16, Sub-18 e Sub-20. No geral, observou-se uma distribuição desigual das datas de nascimento por quartil, onde um maior número de jovens para-atletas nasceu no Q1 do ano para Sub-16 (χ²3= 18.785; p = .0003; Phi effect = .45), Sub-18 (χ²3= 6.846; p= .05; Phi effect = .17), e Sub-20 (χ²3= 10.156; p= .017; Phi effect = .17). Entretanto, quando comparamos o desempenho dos atletas por evento (provas de atletismo) e separadamente por quartil, não houve diferenças significativas (p> .05). Em conclusão, nosso estudo evidenciou o papel influente da idade relativa em paraatletas de atletismo, mas parece que esse fenômeno não está relacionadoao desempenho em eventos desta modalidade.(AU)

Evidence of good and bad player momentum between games in basketball / Evidencia de buen y mal momentum entre partidos para el jugador de baloncesto / Evidência de bom e mau momentum entre os jogos para o jogador de basquete

La existencia de rachas en baloncesto ha sido estudiada en equipos (momentum del equipo) y jugadores (mano caliente/momentum del jugador), utilizando diferentes métodos y alcanzando resultados contradictorios. Sin embargo, investigación empírica reciente muestra que este tipo de fenómenos de rachas son reales y no un sesgo de la percepción. En esta investigación se analiza una forma de rachas de juego para el jugador que hasta ahora no había sido considerada: el momentum del jugador entre partidos. Empleando una muestra de 39 jugadores y 3483 partidos de las temporadas 2016/17 y 2017/18 en la NBA, se analiza los puntos anotados por minuto en situaciones de muy alto y también muy bajo rendimiento. Los resultados sugieren que hay una cierta tendencia que refleja el momentum, tanto para buenos como para malos rendimientos, pero ese resultado está influenciado por el porcentaje de uso del jugador, es decir, su capacidad para acaparar juego. La tendencia es ir hacia atrás (en torno a un 60-70%) en ladistribución de anotaciones tras un partido muy bueno, y de ir hacia delante (en torno a un 30-40%) en la distribución de anotaciones tras un partido muy malo. Las implicaciones para la toma de decisiones son discutidas finalmente.(AU)

The existence of streaks in basketball has been studied for teams (team momentum) and players (hot hand/player momentum) using disparate methods and reaching some conflicting results. However, recent empirical research shows these types of streaks are real and not an artifact of perception. In this research, we analyze a form of player streak that has not been considered before player momentum between games. Using a sample of 39 players and 3483 games of the 2016/17 and 2017/18 NBA regular seasons, we studied the distribution of points scored per minute focusing on both tails of this distribution for each player, i.e., extremely high, and extremely low performance within the same season. Results suggest that there is a certain trend reflecting momentum (for both good and bad performances), but this outcome is influenced by the usage percentage. The trend is to jump back to around 60-70% of the distribution of scores after a very good game and to jump forward to around 30-40% of the distribution of scores after a very bad game. Implications for decision-making are discussed at the end.(AU)

A existência de sequências no basquetebol têm sido estudadas em equipas (momentum da equipa) e jogadores (mão quente/momentum do jogador), utilizando diferentes métodos e chegando a resultados contraditórios. No entanto, estudosempíricos recentes evidenciaram queesse tipo de fenômeno é real e não um viés de percepção. Este estudo analisou uma forma de sequência de jogo para o jogador que até então não havia sido considerada: o ímpeto do jogador entre as partidas. Para tal, participaram neste estudo 39 jogadores e 3483 jogos das temporadas 2016/17 e 2017/18 da NBA, e foram analisados os pontos marcados por minuto em situações de alto e baixo desempenho. Os resultados sugerem que existe uma certa tendência que reflete o momentum, tanto para as boas como para as más exibições, mas esse resultado é influenciado pela percentagem de aproveitamento do jogador, ou seja, a sua capacidadede dominaro jogo. As implicações para a tomada de decisão são finalmente discutidas.(AU)

Análisisdel Tiempo de Juego Efectivo y de la Posesión de Balón en el Fútbol Femenino Profesional / Análise do Tempo Efetivo de Jogo e Posse de Bola no Futebol Profissional Feminine / Analysis of Effective Playing Time and Possession of the Ball in Professional Female Footbal

Elobjetivo del presente estudio observacional fue describir el tiempo efectivo dejuego en el fútbol femenino profesional a partir de cómo se distribuyó la frecuencia y duración de la posesión de balón. Se analizaron ocho partidos de la Champions League femenina de la temporada 2021-22. El sistema de codificación estuvo compuesto por cuatro categorías: posesión de balón (dentro del balón en juego, BJ) y balón parado (BP), tanto del equipo de referencia como del oponente. Se implementaron un análisis descriptivo, una comparación de medias para las variables independientes (parte (primeray segunda) y lugar (casa y fuera) del partido) y un análisis de secuencialidad. Los resultados fueron que: 1) el BJ tuvo una mayor duración que el BP, en ambas partes y lugares; 2) el número de posesiones por cada BJ decreció a medida que aumentó el númerode posesiones consecutivas (desde 1 a 5 o más); 3) no existieron diferencias en la duración promedio de las posesiones, indistintamente a las partes y el lugar; y, 4) existióvariabilidad en las transiciones entre los BJ y BP con diferente duración. Estos hallazgos podrían ayudar a los cuerpos técnicos y, especialmente, a las/os preparadoras/es en el diseño de tareas que repliquen las dinámicas de juego en el fútbol femenino de élite.(AU)

This observational study aimed to describe the effective playing time based on how the frequency and duration of ball possession were distributed in professional women's football. Eight matches of the Women's Champions League of the 2021-22 season were analyzed. The coding system was made up of four categories: possession of the ball (within the ball in play, BJ) and set piece (BP), both the reference team and the opponent. A descriptive analysis, a comparison of means for the independent variables (half (first and second) and location (home and away) of the match), and a sequential analysis were implemented. The results were that: 1) the BJ had a longer duration than the BP, in both halves and location; 2) the number of possessions per BJ decreased as more consecutive possessions were accumulated (from 1 to 5 or more); 3) there were no differences in the average duration of the possessions, regardless of the havesand the location; and, 4) there was variability in the transitions between the BJ andBP withdifferent duration. These findings could help the coaching staff and, especially, coaches in the design of tasks that replicate the game dynamics in elite women's football.(AU)

O objetivo deste estudo observacional foi descrever o tempo efetivo de jogo a partir da distribuição da frequência e duração da posse de bola no futebol feminino profissional. Foram analisadas oito partidas da Liga dos Campeões Feminina da temporada 2021-22. O sistema de codificação foi composto por quatro categorias: posse de bola (dentro da bola em jogo, BJ) e bola parada (BP), tanto da equipa de referência quanto do adversário. Foram implementadas uma análise descritiva, uma comparação de médias para as variáveis independentes (primeira e segunda parte) e localização (casa e fora) da partida) e uma análise sequencial. Os resultados foram que: 1) o BJ teve uma duração maior que o BP, em ambos os trechos e localização; 2) o número de posses por BJ diminuiu à medida que mais posses consecutivas foram acumuladas (de 1 para 5 ou mais); 3) não houve diferenças na duração média das posses, independentemente das partes e do localização; e, 4) houve variabilidade nas transições entre o BJ e oBPcom diferentes durações. Esses achados podem auxiliar as equipes técnicas e, principalmente, os treinadores no desenho de tarefas que reproduzam a dinâmica do jogo no futebol feminino de elite.(AU)

Sistema de Análise de Informação do Treinador de Futebol em Competição (SAITFC) -Validação e Aplicação de Instrumento de Observação num Estudo Piloto / istema de Análisis de Información del Entrenador de Fútbol en Competición (SAITFC) -Validación y Aplicación de un Instrumento de Observación en un Estudio Piloto / The Information Analysis System for Football Coaches in Competition (SAITFC) -Validationand Application of an Observation Instrument in a Pilot Study

La observación sistemática es un método que permite obtener numerosas informaciones sobre el comportamiento del entrenador, incluida la comunicación, que es parte integral del proceso de eficacia pedagógica. Tras revisar varios sistemas de observación y comprobar su potencial, pero principalmente sus debilidades, surge el Sistema de Análisis de Información del Entrenador de Fútbol en Competición (SAITFC) desde una perspectiva de evolución y aportación científica. Un sistema flexible que incluye dimensiones, categorías y subcategorías, que hacen referencia a la información en un intento de hacer inclusivos todos los comportamientos relacionados con la información emitida por el entrenador, ayudando a elaborar un perfil de comportamiento en competición. El cálculo de los porcentajes de concordancia, complementando con las estadísticas Kappa de Cohen, mostró altos niveles de fidelidad de las observaciones para ser utilizadas como herramienta científica. Con este estudio piloto, los resultados obtenidos en esta investigación sugieren que los entrenadores emiten cada vez más información, no solo a los atletas, en forma de instrucción y feedback, sino a todos los agentes deportivos involucrados en la competencia, es decir, el arbitraje, el oponente y el equipo técnico en forma de conversaciones. El feedback tiende a ser prescriptive, auditive, dirigido al atleta, táctico y afectivamente neutral. Es importante destacar la expresividad de los feedbacks relacionados con esquemas tácticos y velocidad de reacción. El SAITFC, como herramienta para ayudar a sistematizar el comportamiento del entrenador, demostró ser un método eficaz, contribuyendo así a la formación de los entrenadores, pero también a nivel científico, ayudándolos en el campo.(AU)

Systematic observation is a method that allows obtaining numerous information about the coach ́s behavior, including communication, whichis an integral part of the process of pedagogical effectiveness. After reviewing several observation systems and verifying their potential, mainly their weaknesses, the Information Analysis System for Football Coaches in Competition (SAITFC) emerges from a perspective of evolution andscientific contribution. A flexible system that includes dimensions, categories, and subcategories, which refer to the information in an attempt to make all behaviors related to the information issued by the coach inclusive, helping to elaborate a behavioral profile in the competition. The calculation of agreement percentages, complemented by Cohen ́s Kappa statistics, showed substantial levels of reliability for the observations to be used as a scientific tool. With this pilotstudy, the results obtainedin this investigation suggest that coaches issue more and more information, not only to athletes, in the form of instruction and feedback but to all sports agents involved in the competition, namely arbitration, opponent, and technical team in the form of conversations. Feedback tends to be prescriptive, auditory, addressed to the athlete, tactical, and effectively neutral. It is essential to emphasize the expressiveness of the feedback related to tactical schemes and reaction speed. The SAITFC, as a tool tohelp systematize the coach ́s behavior, proved to be an effective method, thus contributing tothe training of coaches, but also at a scientific level, helping them in the field.(AU)

A observação sistemática é um método que permite obter inúmeras informações sobre o comportamento do treinador, entre elas a comunicação, a qual é parte integrante do processo de eficácia pedagógica.Após revisão de vários sistemas de observação e constatação das suas potencialidades, mas principalmente das suas fragilidades, surge assim numa perspetiva de evolução e de contributo científico, o Sistema de Análise da Informação do Treinador de Futebol em Competição (SAITFC). Um sistema flexível que inclui dimensões, categorias e subcategorias, as quais remetem para a informação numa tentativa de tornar inclusivo todos os comportamentos relacionadoscom a informação emitida pelo treinador, ajudando a umaelaboração de um perfil comportamental emcompetição. O cálculo de percentagens de acordos, complementada pela estatística de Kappa de Cohen, mostrou níveis fortes de fidelidade para as observações serem utilizadas como ferramenta científica. Com este estudo piloto, os resultados obtidos nesta investigação sugerem que os treinadores emitam cada vez mais informação, não só para os atletas, em forma de instrução e feedback, mas para todos os agentes desportivos envolvidos na competição, nomeadamente equipas de arbitragem, adversária e técnica em forma de conversas. O feedback tende a ser prescritivo, auditivo, dirigido ao atleta, tático e de afetividade neutra. De realçar a expressividade dos feedbacks relacionados com esquemas táticos e de velocidade de reação. O SAITFC enquanto ferramenta de auxílio à sistematização do comportamento do treinador, mostrou ser um método eficaz, contribuindo assim para a formação de treinadores, mas também a nível científico, auxiliando-os no terreno.(AU)

The Impact of Regular Exercise, Competition Experience, and Physical Self-efficacy on Psychological Resilience / El impacto del ejercicio regular, la experiencia competitiva y la autoeficacia física en la resiliencia psicológica

The concept of resilience has a crucial role in various aspects of individuals' lives, including physical exercise, self-efficacy, self-esteem, body image, and overall welfare. The importance of this factor in assisting athletes in effectively navigating the demands of sports performance should not be underestimated. The present study aims to investigate the effects of consistent physical exercise and participation in competitive activities on an individual's psychological resilience. A cross-sectional analysis was conducted on a sample of 329 participants, consisting of 229 individuals who engaged in regular exercise and 100 individuals who did not exercise. The participants were selected from athletics club members and college students. The Resilience Scale and Physical Self-Efficacy Questionnaire were administered to the participants using a survey conducted through Google Forms. Prior informed consent was obtained from all participants. The findings suggest that those in the regular exercise group had enhanced emotional impulse control, heightened positive emotions, improved communication skills, more empathy, and greater self-improvement in comparison to those in the non-exercise group. In a similar vein, individuals who took part in competitive activities had a significant improvement in their ability to regulate their emotional impulses, showed a greater understanding and management of positive emotions, exhibited improved communication abilities, displayed heightened empathetic capacities, and experienced enhanced personal growth compared to those who did not participate. The aforementioned results highlight the beneficial impact of consistent physical activity in strengthening one's psychological resilience, which is consistent with previous research that has demonstrated exercise's ability to reduce stress and enhance resilience. This study highlights the positive associations between consistent physical activity, engagement in competitive sports, and increased psychological resilience among athletes. Examining these connections offers practical knowledge for athletes and sports professionals aiming to enhance their psychological well-being and performance in demanding environments.(AU)

An Analytical Model of Table Tennis Campus Sports Competition Trends in the Context of Sports Education Integration / Un modelo analítico de las tendencias de las competiciones deportivas en el campus de tenis de mesa en el contexto de la integración de la educación deportiva

Volunteers in sports, full-time workers in sports, trainers, coaches, and administrative support people all have varying levels of devotion to their employment and organizations. Athletes are encouraged to participate in sports by their coaches, parents, and trainers. This helps athletes maintain physical fitness and promote a healthy lifestyle in order to encourage better international and local collaboration. A sports company is made up of championships, players, a management board, local cooperation, leagues, sports clubs, and men's and women's teams that supervise and conduct the organization's activities. Protecting the rights of sport's athletes is the responsibility of sports organizations, whether temporary or permanent. The purposive sample approach and snowball sampling were used in the research design to acquire data. Purposive sampling has helped researchers to find responders who are familiar with the field of expertise, based on the appropriate degree of knowledge necessary. A questionnaire was used to obtain the information. A total of fifty people took part in this study. Out of the 50 people who responded, 35 were men and 15 were women. SEM PLS 3.3.7v was used to evaluate the collected data. The findings revealed a substantial positive relationship between the factors.(AU)

Ansiedad precompetitiva y habilidades psicológicas relacionadas con el rendimiento deportivo / Precompetitive anxiety and psychological skills in sports performance

Antecedentes: la vinculación entre el estrés, la ansiedad y el rendimiento deportivo constituye un relevante tema de interés en el área de la psicología deportiva, si bien existe poca evidencia acerca de cómo diferentes variables pueden afectar a los niveles de ansiedad y así alterar el rendimiento deportivo. Objetivo: comparar las relaciones existentes entre las características psicológicas relacionadas con el rendimiento deportivo y ansiedad precompetitiva en una muestra de deportistas federados y no federados que difieren en sexo, edad y deporte practicado. Método: en este estudio han participado 202 deportistas con edades comprendidas entre los 18 y 30 años (X = 22,35; DT = 3,69) que practican fútbol, baloncesto, atletismo y/o natación. Resultados: se ha encontrado que existe relación entre las habilidades psicológicas relacionadas con el rendimiento deportivo y la ansiedad precompetitiva. Asimismo, se ha hallado que solo existen diferencias estadísticamente significativas en la ansiedad somática dependiendo de si el deporte practicado es individual o grupal, así como diferencias en los niveles de ansiedad precompetitiva según el sexo, si bien no hay relación diferencial en los niveles de ansiedad respecto a la edad. Conclusiones: a través de este estudio se ha pretendido aportar más evidencia empírica al ámbito de la psicología deportiva y se valoran sus beneficios.(AU)

Introduction: The link between stress, anxiety and sports performance is a relevant topic of interest in the area of sports psychology, although there is little evidence about how different variables can affect anxiety levels and thus alter sports performance. Objective: Compare the relationships between psychological characteristics related to sports performance and pre-competitive anxiety in a sample of federated and non-federated athletes differing in sex, age and sport practiced. Method: 202 sportsmen and women aged between 18 and 30 years (X = 22.35; SD = 3.69) who play football, basketball, athletics and/or swimming participated. Results: it was found that there is a relationship between psychological skills related to sports performance and pre-competitive anxiety. Likewise, it was found that there are only statistically significant differences in somatic anxiety depending on whether the sport practised is individual or group, as well as differences in the levels of pre-competitive anxiety by gender, although there is no differential relationship in the levels of anxiety with respect to age. Conclusions: the aim of this study is to provide more empirical evidence to the field of sport psychology and to assess its benefits.(AU)

Por fim, os ciclistasapresentaram uma FC e uma potência mais elevadas quando comparada a situação de controlo versus as situações intervencionadas nos primeiros 120sdo teste.Conclusão: As três situações de trabalho no dia pré-competitivo proposto obtiveram um desempenho semelhante, embora se tenha observado umacadência média mais baixa e uma maior eficiência mecânica para a situação específica, o que poderá ser benéfico para a melhoria do desempenhocompetitivo dos ciclistas masters de BTT.(AU)

Mechanic-Mathematical Model of Javelin Flight / Modelación mecánico-matemática del vuelo de la jabalina

With a view to improving the athlete's performance during the javelin throw, the objective was to develop, based on the application of Newtonian mechanics to the javelin flight process, a mathematical model and a computerized tool that make it possible to determine the influence on javelin flight trajectory and distance of the characteristic parameters of throwing release phase. As a result, a mathematical model and software were obtained that make it possible to predict the trajectory and flight distance of the implement in function of the properties of the javelin and ambient air, gravitational forces and initial throwing parameters. The model was validated by comparing the flight distance predicted by the model with experimental results obtained in the framework of this research, as well as with data obtained from international competitions. The mean prediction error obtained during the comparison of the javelin flight distance calculated with the model, with the actual throwing results, ranged from 0.65% to 1.58%. (AU)

Como resultado se obtienen un modelo matemático y un software que posibilitan predecir el alcance del implemento en función de las propiedades de la jabalina y del aire ambiente, así como de las fuerzas gravitacionales y de los parámetros iniciales del lanzamiento. El modelo fue validado comparando la predicción con resultados experimentales obtenidos en el marco de esta investigación, así como con datos obtenidos de competencias internacionales. El error medio de predicción del alcance de la jabalina, osciló, para diferentes parámetros iniciales, entre 0,65% y 1,58%. (AU)

Research on Optimization of Post-competition Training Methods for Competitive Sports Athletes / Investigación sobre la optimización de métodos de entrenamiento post-competición para atletas de deportes competitivos

Athletes enter a competitive sport for various reasons and go on to compete for years without any significant modifications that may affect the success of their sporting career. However, there is a cost to this approach of no changes in training strategy. The purpose of this study was to identify successful post-competition training methods by studying both international and Olympic athletes compete in multiple endurance sports during the World Championships event. Results showed several factors including personal characteristics, coaching knowledge, skill level, competition phase and season can have a significant impact on the success rates of athletes following competition performance. In this study, five factors were employed, and the results were published. The information was gathered using a questionnaire from 50 kids who participated in sports. However, the gathered data was subjected to SEM PLS 3 analysis. The findings revealed a favorable relationship between the five variables that were studied.(AU)

Do Social Factors Contribute to International Sports Performance: A Panel Data Analysis of Countries' Performance in the Asian Games / ¿Contribuyen los factores sociales al rendimiento deportivo internacional? Un análisis de datos de panel del rendimiento de los países en los Juegos Asiáticos

Asia has become a leader in international sports championships, which justifies a greater emphasis on the region's sporting achievements. However, different economic, political, and social elements influence the region's performance since deteriorating social or economic systems can harm performance. This study examined the impact of social factors on the international athletic performance of Asian nations. To do so, we analyzed the effect of health expenditure, education expenditure, and development on sports performance from 1961 to 2018 while adjusting for gross domestic product and population growth. The data was evaluated using VAR, and the study's conclusions demonstrated a considerable correlation between social growth and national sporting performance. The paper includes recommendations for further research and consequences for the government and policymakers.(AU)

The Application of Psychological Identity in Olympic Multicultural Education / La aplicación de la identidad psicológica en la educación multicultural olímpica

Since its inception, the contemporary Olympic Games have increasingly eliminated regional, racial, and ideological barriers. This research is undertaken to analyze the influence of multiculturalism on psychological harmony based on the notion of the culture-psychological relationship to conduct innovative research and provide solutions for constructing psychological harmony and harmonious society. A random sample of 553 university students from a university was chosen using the "Psychological Harmony Scale" and "Cultural Impact Scale," and SPSS 13 was used to analyze the data. In addition, AMOS7.0 was utilized to develop a structural equation model, primarily for psychological harmony and multicultural variables, to conduct mean comparison t-tests and multicultural influence on psychological harmony to conduct multiple regression analyses, optimal scale analyses, and its significance test. The results revealed that male students had a substantially higher level of emotional harmony than female students (p<0.05). Cognitive harmony, behavioral harmony, self-harmony, and total psychological harmony did not substantially differ between gender groups (p>0.05). Four elements affected the psychological harmony of urban students as a whole. In today's multicultural culture, the function of education has also evolved. According to the findings of this study, cultural factors influence psychological harmony in several ways. In addition, this study found that personality mediates the effect of culture on psychological harmony.(AU)

Análise do Efeito da Idade Relativa e do ano constituinte nas categorias de base do atletismo / Análisis del efecto de la edad relativa y el año constitutivo en las categorías básicas de atletismo / Analysis of the effect of relative age and constituent year on basic athletics categories

El presente estudio buscó analizar el Efecto de la Edad Relativa y el año constituyente en las categorías básicas del atletismo. Se decidió realizar un análisis del ranking general CBAt, tomando como muestra los datos de 2017. El enfoque de análisis consistió en un enfoque cuantitativo y cualitativo. La muestra estuvo compuesta por un total de 3.909 deportistas, hombres y mujeres, nacidos en los siguientes años: 1996 (n = 268); 1997 (n = 680); 1998 (n = 630); 1999 (n = 910); 2000 (n = 572); 2001 (n = 612); 2002 (n = 204); y 2003 (n = 33). Además, se entrevistó a seis entrenadores brasileños en la modalidad de atletismo para contribuir a las discusiones. Se puede observar que existe una tendencia a que el ranking deportivo de las categorías del base tenga una mayor sobrerrepresentación de los deportistas nacidos en los primeros meses del año, en relación a los nacidos en los últimos meses. Por otro lado, otro tema observado es que el año constitutivo de las categorías analizadas (16, 18 y 20 años) no tiene la mayoría de los resultados. Por tanto, son cuestiones que deben ser tenidas en cuenta por las personas que trabajan en el proceso de formación deportiva. (AU)

The present study sought to analyze the Effect of Relative Age and the constituent year in the basic categories of athletics. It was decided to carry out an analysis of the general CBAt ranking, taking the 2017 data as a sample. The analysis approach consisted of a quantitative and qualitative approach. The sample included a total of 3,909 athletes, male and female, born in the following years: 1996 (n = 268); 1997 (n = 680); 1998 (n = 630); 1999 (n = 910); 2000 (n = 572); 2001 (n = 612); 2002 (n= 204); and 2003(n = 33). In addition, six Brazilian coaches in the athletics modality were interviewed in order to contribute to the discussions. It is noticed that there was a tendency for the sports ranking of the basic categories to have agreater representation of athletes born in the first months of the year, in relation to those born in the final months. On the other hand, another issue observed is that the constituent year of the analyzed categories (16, 18 and 20 years) does not have the majorityof the results. Thus, these are issues that need to be taken into account by the people who work in the sports training process. (AU)

O presente estudo buscou analisar o Efeito da Idade Relativa e do ano constituinte nas categorias de base do atletismo. Optou-se em fazer uma análise do ranking geral da CBAt, tendo como amostra os dados de 2017. A abordagem de análise consistiu em uma abordagem quanti-qualitativa. Fizeram parte da amostra um total de 3.909 atletas, dos sexos masculino e feminino, nascidos nos seguintes anos: 1996 (n=268); 1997 (n=680); 1998 (n=630); 1999 (n=910); 2000 (n=572); 2001 (n=612); 2002 (n=204); e 2003(n=33). Além disto, seis técnicos brasileiros da modalidade de atletismo foram entrevistados com o intuito de contribuir para as discussões. Percebe-se que houve uma tendência de o ranking esportivo das categorias de base ter uma maior representação de atletas nascidos nos primeiros meses do ano, em relação aos nascidos nos meses finais. Por outro lado, outra questão observada, é que o ano constituinte das categorias analisadas (16, 18 e 20 anos) não possui a maioria dos resultados. Deste modo, essas são questões que precisam ser levadas em consideração pelas pessoasque atuam no processo de formação esportiva. (AU)

Phenomenological Probe on Senior High School Teachers’ Experiences in Teaching Sports Track During the Transition Years of Philippine K To 12 / Sondeo fenomenológico sobre las experiencias de los maestros de secundaria superior en la enseñanza de deportes de atletismo durante los años de transición de Filipinas K a 12

The Philippine education system is currently under transition due to the implementation of Republic Act 10533, also known as the Enhanced Basic Education Act. Since its enactment in 2013, physical education researchers have been examining the initial impact of this transition. Yet, investigations to determine teachers' challenges in the sports Track Program of the senior high school curriculum were barely sufficient. Hence, this research was conducted to probe the challenges of these teachers using a qualitative phenomenology research design. Research participants from selected schools in the Cotabato Province in the Philippines were involved in focus group discussions, in-depth interviews, and extensive field observation. Six significant concerns from the research participants transpired; these are difficulties with online learning, mismatched of students’ interests; unrealistic curriculum; inadequate facilities; overloaded teaching loads; and struggles of non-physical education graduates. The findings then served as crucial elements in drawing conclusions and recommendations to better implement the sports track program in the Philippine senior high school curriculum. (AU)

El sistema educativo filipino se encuentra actualmente en transición debido a la implementación de la Ley de la República 10533, también conocida como Ley de Educación Básica Mejorada. Desde su promulgación en 2013, los investigadores de educación física han estado examinando el impacto inicial de esta transición. Sin embargo, las investigaciones para determinar los desafíos de los profesores en el Programa de Pista deportiva del plan de estudios de la escuela secundaria superior fueron escasamente suficientes. Por lo tanto, esta investigación se llevó a cabo para sondear los desafíos de estos profesores utilizando un diseño de investigación de fenomenología cualitativa. Los participantes de la investigación de escuelas seleccionadas en la provincia de Cotabato en Filipinas participaron en discusiones de grupos focales, entrevistas en profundidad y una extensa observación de campo. Transcurrieron seis preocupaciones significativas de los participantes de la investigación; estos son: dificultades con el aprendizaje en línea; desajuste de los intereses de los estudiantes; plan de estudios poco realista; instalaciones inadecuadas; cargas de enseñanza sobrecargadas; y luchas de los no graduados en educación física. Luego, los hallazgos sirvieron como elementos cruciales para sacar conclusiones y recomendaciones para implementar mejor el programa de atletismo deportivo en el plan de estudios de la escuela secundaria superior de Filipinas.

Perfil dermatoglífico y cualidades físicas predominantes en atletas mexicanos universitarios: estudio exploratorio / Dermatoglyphic Profile and Predominant Physical Qualities in Mexican University Athletes: Exploratory Study

The objective of the study is to analyze the dermatoglyphic profile and its relationship with the predominant physical qualities in university athletes in track and field modalities. A non-experimental design of transverse and exploratory type is presented in a sample of 87 (81%) student-athletes who are part of the representative team of athletics of a public university in Mexico, with an average age of 20.05 ± 2.2 years, 44 (50.6%) men and 43 (49.4%) women. For the measurement and analysis of innate physical potentialities, the technique of fingerprint dermatoglyphics was used. The results show that the most relevant digital formulas are, L>W and W>L with a D10 index (13.3). 83% of the athletes are in the right discipline according to the type of fingerprint, number of designs and lines. The study, provides a reference for future studies or for the detection and selection of talent for athletics. (AU)

El término dermatoglifo se debe a Cummins (glyphe: escritura, grabado; derma: piel) y se refiere a las líneas dermopapilares que se dibujan en los pulpejos de los dedos, las palmas de las manos y las plantas de los pies (Midlo y Cummins, 1942). Y aunque la dermatoglifia, en general, estudia las impresiones o reproducciones de los dibujos formados por las crestas en los pulpejos dactilares de las manos (complejo palmar), dedos (tercera falange) y plantas de los pies (de Abreu-Cruz et al., 2007), en la dermatoglifia enfocada en el estudio de potencialidades físicas en deportistas, se usa exclusivamente el análisis de las huellas de los dedos de las manos, por lo que la nomenclatura más acertada para hablar de esta metodología sería dermatoglifia dactilar deportiva (Gastélum y Guedea, 2017). Las huellas dactilares se forman entre el tercer y sexto mes de vida intrauterina, a la par con el desarrollo del sistema nervioso central (Chakraborty, 1991). (AU)

Material y método: Muestra compuesta por corredores que repitieron participación en las carreras de ultradistancia Ehunmilak de 2017 y 2018. Se analizaron datos recogidos mediante los informes médicos de la carrera y un cuestionario creado específicamente para este estudio. Para el análisis de variables, se utilizaron las pruebas de U de Mann-Whitney y Chi-cuadrado, con un intervalo de confianza del 95%. Un valor de p <0,05 fue considerado estadísticamente significativo. Resultados: Se observó baja prevalencia de varios factores de riesgo conocidos (HTA 1,8%, DM 0%, dislipemia 0-1,8%, tabaquismo 5,3-10,5%, sobrepeso 17,5%). Durante los dos últimos años, el 0% sufrió lesiones cardiovasculares y el 52,6% lesiones musculoesqueléticas. Los exámenes médicos son realizados con frecuencia, cada año por el 91,2%. El 72% cumplió con las últimas recomendaciones de la OMS en cuanto a volumen de ejercicio físico. Por último, no se encontró relación entre los parámetros que indican gran volumen de ejercicio físico y el resultado del ECG. Lo mismo ocurrió con las lesiones musculoesqueléticas, aunque en este caso se observaron relaciones significativas con el IMC (p=0,004) y la intensidad del entrenamiento (p=0,009). Conclusiones: Se observó que el grupo de corredores estudiado goza de buena salud y que sus hábitos de entrenamiento son correctos, acorde a las últimas recomendaciones de la OMS. Además, sus características y hábitos de entrenamiento no mostraron relación con el riesgo de desarrollar un ECG patológico o de sufrir lesiones musculoesqueléticas, exceptuando la relación significativa que mostraron el IMC y la intensidad del entrenamiento con estas últimas.(AU)

Objective: To describe the physical and physiological characteristics of a group formed by ultra-distance runners, to compare their training habits with the guidelines established by the WHO and to study the possible harmful consequences of the high volume of physical activity performed. Material and method: The sample was formed by runners who repeated their participation in the “Ehunmilak” ultra-distance race in 2017 and 2018. Data collected through the medical certificates of the race and an own questionnaire were analyzed. For the analysis of variables, the Mann-Whitney U and Chi-square tests were used, with a 95% confidence interval. A value of p <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: A low prevalence of several well known risk factors was observed (HT 1.8%, DM 0%, dyslipidemia 0-1.8%, smoking 5.3-10.5%, overweight 17.5%). During the last two years, 0% suffered cardiovascular injuries and 52.6% suffered musculoskeletal injuries. Medical examinations were performed frequently, each year by 91.2%. 72% complied with the latest WHO recommendations regarding volume of physical activity. Finally, no relationship was found between the parameters that indicate a high volume of physical exercise and the ECG result. The same occurred with musculoskeletal injuries, although in this case significant relationships were observed with BMI (p = 0.004) and training intensity (p = 0.009). Conclusions: It was observed that the group of runners studied is in good health and that their training habits are correct, according to the latest WHO recommendations. In addition, their characteristics and training habits did not show a relationship with the risk of developing a pathological ECG or suffering musculoskeletal injuries, except for the significant relationship that BMI and training intensity showed with the latter.(AU)
