Sex-specific associations of moderate and vigorous physical activity with physical fitness in adolescents     

T. Kidokoro  H. Tanaka  K. Naoi  K. Ueno  T. Yanaoka  K. Kashiwabara 《European Journal of Sport Science》2016,16(8):1159-1166

The present study examined the sex-specific associations of moderate and vigorous physical activity (VPA) with physical fitness in 300 Japanese adolescents aged 12–14 years. Participants were asked to wear an accelerometer to evaluate physical activity (PA) levels of various intensities (i.e. moderate PA (MPA), 3–5.9 metabolic equivalents (METs); VPA, ≥6 METs; moderate to vigorous PA (MVPA), ≥3 METs). Eight fitness items were assessed (grip strength, bent-leg sit-up, sit-and-reach, side step, 50?m sprint, standing long jump, handball throw, and distance running) as part of the Japanese standardised fitness test. A fitness composite score was calculated using Japanese fitness norms, and participants were categorised according to their score from category A (most fit) to category E (least fit), with participants in categories D and E defined as having low fitness. It was found that for boys, accumulating more than 80.7?min/day of MVPA may reduce the probability of low fitness (odds ratio (ORs) [95% confidence interval (CI)]?=?0.17 [0.06–0.47], p?=?.001). For girls, accumulating only 8.4?min of VPA could reduce the likelihood of exhibiting low fitness (ORs [95% CI]?=?0.23 [0.05–0.89], p?=?.032). These results reveal that there are sex-specific differences in the relationship between PA and physical fitness in adolescents, suggesting that sex-specific PA recommendation may be needed to improve physical fitness in adolescents.  相似文献   

TELEVISION IN LABORATORY GUIDANCE: PRACTICAL AND PHILOSOPHICAL BASES     

Kiyoomi Tanaka  Masao Takagi 《Learning, Media and Technology》1977,3(1):13-14

At the University of Electro‐Communications instruction is given on fundamental electricity in accordance with the educational principles derived from the philosophy of ‘Zen’. On the technical side, CCTV interphones and other audio‐visual aids are employed. In particular, we have inaugurated a remote instruction method called ‘TV‐Interphone’, abbreviated to T.I. method, through which we give personal guidance to students in the conduct of their experiments. Data from the experiments are fed into a computer which was installed in the laboratory for control processing

Three courses are provided:

1. 1. Electrical Measurements and Characteristics of Analogue and Digital Circuits.

2. 2. Electrical Measurements and Characteristics of Advanced Analogue Circuits

3. 3. Design and Experiment

The locker room : Eroticism and exoticism in a polyphonic text     

Greg Tanaka Cindy Cruz 《International journal of qualitative studies in education》2013,26(1):137-153

Critical race theory now encompasses a polyphonic telling of story in which multiple, shifting identities are seen in relation to each other and situated within historical contexts. Locating the fictive voice of an administrator forced to deal with change at a small private university, the article begins with a flashback to confrontations demanding that he reexamine his positions in relation to both work and social life. The second part of the article is an analytic discussion of the voices of narrator and other actors and concludes with a critical reconceptualization of polyphony. Much in the same way that critical race theorists have injected story-telling into legal scholarship in order to deconstruct and then reconstruct knowledge, the authors urge education researchers to move away from methodologies and systems of analysis that derive from white liberal discourse and ironically serve to maintain the status quo by leaving in place conservative structures and reward mechanisms.  相似文献   

Cultured pearls—commercialised biomineralisation     

Kenneth Simkiss  Koji Wada 《Endeavour》1980,4(1):32-37

At the turn of the last century there was an ever increasing world demand for pearls while at the same time their known fishing grounds were becoming exhausted. Some way of artificially increasing their production was obviously desirable, and the problem attracted considerable effort. It was an attempt to exploit a scientifically poorly understood phenomenon, and it is interesting, in retrospect, to relate these attempts to recent concepts of biomineralisation. Pearls are, of course, the layers of aragonitic calcium carbonate secreted by molluscs.  相似文献   

Relationship between Achilles tendon properties and foot strike patterns in long-distance runners     

Keitaro Kubo  Daisuke Miyazaki  Shigeharu Tanaka  Shozo Shimoju  Naoya Tsunoda 《Journal of sports sciences》2015,33(7):665-669

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between Achilles tendon properties and foot strike patterns in long-distance runners. Forty-one highly trained male long-distance runners participated in this study. Elongation of the Achilles tendon and aponeurosis of the medial gastrocnemius muscle were measured using ultrasonography, while the participants performed ramp isometric plantar flexion up to the voluntary maximum. The relationship between the estimated muscle force and tendon elongation during the ascending phase was fit to a linear regression, the slope of which was defined as stiffness. In addition, the cross-sectional area of the Achilles tendon was measured using ultrasonography. Foot strike patterns (forefoot, midfoot and rearfoot) during running were determined at submaximal velocity (18 km · h^?1) on a treadmill. The number of each foot strike runner was 12 for the forefoot (29.3%), 12 for the midfoot (29.3%) and 17 for the rearfoot (41.5%). No significant differences were observed in the variables measured for the Achilles tendon among the three groups. These results suggested that the foot strike pattern during running did not affect the morphological or mechanical properties of the Achilles tendon in long-distance runners.  相似文献   

Fostering Social and Emotional Skills for Well-Being and Social Progress     

Koji Miyamoto  Maria C. Huerta  Katarzyna Kubacka 《European Journal of Education》2015,50(2):147-159

Children need a balanced set of cognitive, social and emotional capabilities to adapt to today's demanding, changing and unpredictable world. OECD countries and partner economies recognise the importance on the holistic development of individuals. However, there are big gaps between stakeholders' knowledge, expectations and practices on how to foster such skills. This paper presents evidence on the importance of social and emotional skills; on how policy makers and schools are currently enhancing and monitoring such skills; and, on the existing gaps between knowledge, expectations and practices to mobilise these skills. The paper concludes by pointing ways in which education stakeholders can do more to better develop and mobilise the skills that drive individual's well-being and social progress. The paper draws on findings and frameworks that are being published in a full OECD report entitled ‘Skills for Social Progress: the Power of Social and Emotional Skills’ in the first half of 2015.  相似文献   

Scaffold fabrication in a perfusion culture microchamber array chip by O(2) plasma bonding of poly(dimethylsiloxane) protected by a physical mask     

Hattori K  Sugiura S  Kanamori T 《Biomicrofluidics》2011,5(2):22204

Extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins are required for cell culture. In this paper, we report the use of O(2) plasma bonding to fabricate a perfusion culture microchamber array chip with identical-size ECM spots in the isolated microchambers. The chip was fabricated by assembly of two poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) layers, a microfluidic network layer, and an ECM array layer, which were aligned and then bonded by O(2) plasma oxidation with protection of the ECM microarray with a physical mask made from PDMS. We successfully cultivated Chinese hamster ovary K1 cells in the microchambers with fibronectin. In the fibronectin microchambers, the cells adhered and extended after 12 h of static culture and then grew over the course of 1 d of perfusion culture.  相似文献   

教育不能只为争第一

有一些孩子非常在意“第一”．如果没争到第一就会生气或者哭闹,并产生恐慌和不安。对于教师来说,要分清“第一”是对排名的偏执,还是对场所的偏执。  相似文献
