The aim of this study was to examine the acquisition sufficiency of physical education lesson goals with the help of Eurofit Test Battery. The study included 41 students with moderate and severe intellectual disability (ID) (9 female, 32 male and 29 mentally retarded, 6 down syndrome (DS) and 5 autism) who were studying at Recep Birsin Ozen Special Education School in Erzurum in Turkey. Physical education lessons were conducted an hour for a day and two days for each week during eight weeks. Before and after 8 weeks of study, Eurofit Tests were applied after measuring the height and the weight of the students. Data were compared in Spss 20 statistics program at p<0.05 level. In Eurofit Test parameters of the students with moderate and severe ID; it was found a difference statically in pre-test-post-test comparisons of flamingo balance, plate tapping, sit-up, sit and reach, standing broad jump and 10x5 metre shuttle run. In the physical education and sports classes, the goals chosen according to the students' level improved the physical capacities of the students. The individual goals chosen for the students in the special education school affiliated to the Republic of Turkey Ministry of National Education contributed to the development of balance, fastness, leg strength, upper body movement speed and flexibility of the students and did not only contribute to the development of hand strength, arm strength and abdominal muscle strength of the students. The results of our study and the results of previous studies are parallel.

In professional volleyball, serving is one of the most important attacking options. A strong and qualified service is important to be successful in the game. There is limited research about comparison of native and foreign volleyball players and also no research was found about Turkish players. The aim of our study was to determine if being a national or a foreign player affects serve speed, serve type and success. Total of 6168 serve shots were included in our study. Four groups were determined as native woman players (n=1836), foreign woman players (n=1036), native man players (n=1886) and foreign man players (n=1410) serve shots. Serve speeds were measured by using Radar Gun (Pocket Radar, Santa Rosa, CA, USA). Serve types and serve efficiencies were recorded during game. There was significant difference between the groups in terms of serve speeds (F=1012.618 p≤0.01). Also statistically significant difference was found bet ween four groups for serve types (p≤0.01) and serve efficiencies (p=0.028). Our results might be a result of training type used from the beginning of sports life of the volleyball player. When we consider the findings, we think that the speed, type and effectiveness of serves should be evaluated and followed for training and tactical development.
在职业排球比赛中,发球是最重要的进攻方式之一。强大而优质的服务对于游戏的成功至关重要。国内外排球运动员的比较研究有限,也没有关于土耳其排球运动员的研究。我们研究的目的是确定作为一个国内或外国球员是否影响发球速度,发球类型和成功。我们的研究共纳入了6168次发球。四组分别为本土女选手(n=1836)、外籍女选手(n=1036)、本土男选手(n=1886)和外籍男选手(n=1410)发球。发球速度测量采用Radar Gun (Pocket Radar, Santa Rosa, CA, USA)。在比赛中记录发球类型和发球效率。各组间发球速度差异有统计学意义(F=1012.618 p≤0.01)。四组之间发球方式和发球效率的差异均有统计学意义(p≤0.01)。我们的结果可能与排球运动员从运动生涯开始就采用的训练方式有关。当我们考虑这些发现时,我们认为发球的速度、类型和有效性应该被评估,并被训练和战术发展所遵循。

Special education as a type of education involving the education of children whose development is slow compared to their peers and the ability to adapt to society, includes challenging processes for the child's family as well as its teachers. Determining the burnout levels of teachers working in the field of special education has been identified as the main goal of this research. Explanation of physical exhaustion, emotional exhaustion, mental exhaustion of teachers, determination of whether the teacher's views differ according to the domographic characteristics of the teachers are included in the scope of the sub-goals. The Maslach Burnout scale was used to collect data in this study, which is in the general screening model. The scale was applied to all special education teachers (142 teachers) working in the field of special education in schools in Eyüpsultan District of Istanbul province. 137 scales have returned. According to the results obtained, working in the field of special education, teachers generally have “some” level(X=2,63±of 0.38); in the dimension of emotional exhaustion: “sometimes” level (X=2,84 ± 0,49); mental exhaustion in the size of the “sometimes” level (X=2,68 ± 0,39); physical exhaustion in the size of “very rare” level (x=is 2.38 ± 0,64) were found to have employee burnout. It was found that the burnout levels of teachers differed according to age, gender, branch, type of institution studied, and duration of work in the field of special education.

Introduction: Patients receiving hemodialysis treatment for chronic renal failure (CRF) develop various symptoms and experience lifestyle changes. CRF is a progressive disease characterized by irreversible loss of nephrons. Objective: The aim of the study was to evaluate fatigue, sleep quality and activities of daily living in patients with chronic renal failure. Method: This was a descriptive cross-sectional study. Sixty-seven CRF patients aged over 18 years who admitted to a private dialysis center for hemodialysis treatment were included. Sociodemographic information was recorded and the 'Visual Analog Scale for Fatigue' was used to evaluate fatigue, the 'Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index' for assessment of sleep quality and the 'Katz Activities of Daily Living Scale' for evaluation of activities of daily living for all patients. All evaluations were conducted by the same investigator before hemodialysis session. Fatigue level assessment was repeated after hemodialysis session. The data obtained were analyzed using the SPSS 24.0 software package. Results: Thirty (44.8%) females and 37 (55.2%) males were enrolled in the study. The mean age of the study population was 55.8 ± 15.75 years. 74.6% of the patients had poor sleep quality. The mean fatigue score of the patients was 4.82 ± 2.02 before hemodialysis and 8.79±1.67 after hemodialysis, as assessed by Visual Analog Scale for Fatigue. All participants were independent in activities of daily living. The average of Katz Activities of Daily Living Scale was 17.03±0.57. Conclusion: In line with former studies, fatigue was the most common symptom in the study patients undergoing hemodialysis treatment for chronic renal failure. Additionally, poor sleep quality and reduced performance in the activities of daily living in the study participants are noteworthy. Hemodialysis causes a number of symptoms that patients have to cope with in their daily lives. It is important to guide patients about individualized rehabilitation programs in the treatment of chronic renal failure.

The aim of this study is to examine the researches on the academic achievement of individuals with special needs in 20182019 and in the fields of science. It is reported that the number of the individuals with special needs in the world and Turkey is increasing day by day. It is known that there are difficulties in academic learning according to the type and level of special needs of people with special needs. The mainstreaming approach, which is accepted as the continuation of general education schools with their peers, provided that individuals with special needs receive special education services to support their education, has been widely adopted in many countries for the past thirty years. For the children who have special needs, inclusive education is really important to keep up with the society. The aim of co-education is to meet the social and emotional needs of students with special needs by integrating them academically and socially with their peers. In this study, the data archive of the Google trend search engine in 2018-2019 was used as a method for the comparative study of individuals with special needs and academic success, which are research topics. According to the research, it is found that the rate of research or people who have special needs is quite high compared to the academic success and it’s observed when we consider all these issues between the cities people with special needs have been researched in nearly provinces of Turkey. Moreover, it is found that although the rates were quite high, the success wasn’t and the number of searches are higher in Ankara and İstanbul than other provinces.

Purpose: Social distance and isolation measures have been taken to minimize the spread rate of COVID-19, and within these measures, all sports leagues and tournaments have been suspended or canceled. In this study, it is aimed to investigate the training continuity and mental health of athletes during the COVID-19 isolation process and to determine whether they are physically and mentally ready for the next season competitions. Methods: 89 athletes, 17.7 ± 2.72 years old, belonging to different sports branches were included in the study. The training time and mental health of the athletes before and after isolation were questioned through the online questionnaire platform. Results: It was observed that most of the athletes had a decrease in the training time compared to before isolation. When the CES-D scale scores measuring the depression level were examined, the scores of the athletes who thought that their sports performance decreased during the isolation process and were not ready to return to the matches were higher than the individuals who did not think (p<0.01). When Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) scale measuring the level of anxiety and CES-D scores were examined, the scores of the individuals who were worried about the decrease in their performance in case of COVID-19 infection and who needed psychological support before returning to the competitions were higher than the other individuals (p<0.01). Conclusions: The results showed that athletes needed physical and psychological support by sports professionals, both during the isolation process and before returning to sports competitions.

The purpose of present study was to compare the selected physical and performance variables of university-level basketball, football and volleyball players. The present study was conducted by 23 students studying in the faculty of health sciences and playing in their school's Football (n = 7), Volleyball (n = 8), Basketball (n = 8) teams and the age ranged from 18-23 years. Several physical and physiological characteristics of the students were evaluated. These characteristics are weight, height, BKI, flexibility, isometric muscle strength, muscular endurance, aerobic and anaerobic performance. While comparing between sports disciplines, one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used for data with normal distribution, and Kruskal Wallis test was used for non-distributed data. The results of the study indicate that there was significant difference among Basketball, Volleyball and Football in relation to VO2 Max, muscle strength, anaerobic power. The aerobic performance test was significantly better in volleyball (p ≤ 0.05). However, there was no statistically significant difference in the results of physical properties, muscle endurance and flexibility among teams (p>0.05). These results will provide useful information for university level athletes to be selected according to sports-specific physical fitness criteria and that they should receive training by team coaches accordingly.

The aim of our study is to examine pain and disability in low back, knee and shoulder regions of individuals working at home during COVID-19 isolation process. In our study, 87 volunteers were included in digital media by questionnaire with data collection method. Individuals who worked in the office before COVID-19 isolation but started working from home during the isolation were included in our study. In addition to the socio-demographic characteristics of the individuals, their situation about the working environment at home was questioned. In addition, pain in the low back, knee and shoulder regions was evaluated with an 11-point pain scale (EPPS). In order to determine the level of disability, individuals were asked to fill in the Oswestry Disability Index (for the lumbar region), Lysholm Knee Score (for the knee region) and the Disability of Arm, Shoulder and Hand Questionnaire (DASH) (for the shoulder region). It was seen that 86.2% preferred desk environment more frequently as home working environment and 65.5% spent 3 to 8 hours in this environment. During the home isolation process, the highest pain was observed for low back pain (50.6%) in individuals (EPPS:4-5), then shoulder pain (44.8%) (EPPS:5) and knee pain (35.6%) (EPPS:4-5). When the levels of disability were evaluated, the Oswestry score was found 13.08±11.98, the Lysholm score was found 91.20±12.23 and the DASH score was found 9.61±16.78. It has been observed that individuals working at home during COVID-19 isolation process may develop shoulder and knee pain, and mostly in the low back region, and all these pain are defined as moderate severity pain. However, when we look at the levels of disability, it was seen that low back pain, knee pain or shoulder pain did not pose a significant problem in the life of the patient and the level of disability was low.

However, when we look at the levels of disability, it was seen that low back pain, knee pain or shoulder pain did not pose a significant problem in the life of the patient and the level of disability was low.","PeriodicalId":424246,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Disabilities Sports & Health Sciences","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125005747","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study aims to determine the effect of a 8 week sprint and pliometric training out regularly on speed, jump and anaerobic power parameters among hearing impaired male athletes at the age of 18-21. The measurement and tests of the study was carried out in 2018 and the article was written in 2019 in Samsun. 45 male volunteers with hearing impairment participated in this study. 15 of whom are sprint training (experimental) group aged 19.6±1,18; 15 of whom are pliometrik training (experimental) group aged 19.33±1,12 and 15 of whom are control group aged 19.87±1,19. The experiment groups was made to take sprint and pliometric training practices for 8 weeks, the content of which had been determined before hand while the participants attended their trainings in their local teams. Two assessments were carried out in specified parameters for three groups at the beginning and end of the study. In statistical analysis, the significance level was taken as α=0,05. One way analysis of variance was used to determine the differences between the groups. When the differences were found, Tukey test was used. Paired sample t-test for within group analysis. There are not any statistically difference in parameters of age, weight and training age of the participants (p>0.05). There is statistically significant difference in height parameter (p<0.05). 8 weeks of training, at the end of the results of participants data, there are significant differences among body weight, verticalle and horizontal jumping, 20 meters and 30 meters sprint (p<0,01); anaerobic power, sprint group (p<0.05), pliometric group (p<0,01) positive increase. There is significant difference found in anaerobic strenght in control group (p<0,05). In conclusion, the results of the present study showed that both sprint and plyometric training for 8 weeks improve the sprint, jump and anaerobic power performance.

Several studies revealed some mood disorders such as depression and burnout in nursing parents as a result of difficulties brought by Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) symptoms. On the other hand, recreative activities have a therapeutic effect on mental health. The aim of the study was to determine the effect of physical activity-based recreation on mothers' depression and burnout levels. Fifteen mothers of children with ASD were included in the single-group pre-test and post-test experimental design study. Beck Depression Inventory and Maslach Burnout Inventory were applied to mothers to determine depression and burnout levels before and after the one-week camp. According to the results of the paired sample t-test, the depression levels of the mothers decreased significantly after the camp, whereas burnout levels remained the same. While depression and burnout levels of the mothers were moderately correlated before the recreation camp, they did not correlate following the recreation camp. It can be concluded that burnout emotional state in parents of children with ASD may correlate with depression which that might be reduced as a result of physical activity based recreative activities. Further longitudinal studies including quantitative and qualitative research methods are needed to determine the cause-effect relationship and create effective recreational programs for families of children with ASD.
