Objective: This study aims to examine the effect of time on psychological variables such as anxiety a state, posttraumatic development, unconditional acceptance oneself, well-being and dimension thereof, namely purpose meaning life in case oncological patients upon diagnosis terminal phase disease. We also aimed differences terms same between stage disease those who have faced life-threatening experience, just we wanted establish whether spiritual experiences (NDEs/DBVsS/ELEs) mainly...
Abstract: Teachers’ burnout, a psychological syndrome that emerges in response to chronic interpersonal stressors on the job, can have serious consequences children and staff schools. The Maslach Burnout Inventory – Educators Survey (MBI-ES) is most widely used scale measure burnout among educational staff. However, this has revealed divergent results factorial validity analysis across countries, calling for further cross-cultural research. This study examines of MBI-ES sample 391 early...
The Golden Ratio (GR) and the Fibonacci sequence have wide applications in biodiversity research, recent studies indicate that GR can be highlighted organization physiological functioning of many body systems. aim this cross-sectional descriptive study is to determine applicability a mathematical model derived from investigate changes hand grip strength (HGS) induced by aging process.We assessed HGS for both hands, using Saehan hydraulic dynamometer group autonomous elderly subjects. One...
Abstract We aimed to evaluate the relationship between anxiety, reaction time and motor performance before after sports competitions. conducted a correlational study (N = 70 men, mean age 20.3 years, athletes) we used as instruments The Anxiety Inventory - STAI, proposed by Spielberger et all., software for measuring simple appearance of visual stimulus on screen assessment test. Our findings suggest importance psychological monitoring elite athletes necessity including tested variables in...
Background: This study examines how socio-demographic factors relate to post-pandemic physical activity patterns among Romanian adults. Methods: A cross-sectional explores post-COVID-19 levels (PAL) and their correlation with in adults (n = 237, average age 28.23 ± 9.91 years). An online questionnaire covering constitutional, socio-demographic, activity-related variables was administered for data collection. Data analysis involves descriptive inferential statistics, including Kendall’s tau...
(1) Background: This study aims to put into evince the relationship between variability of reaction time (RT) during repeated testing, expressed through indicators extracted by Poincaré plot method, and age participants, their self-reported health (SRH), level perceived anxiety. (2) Methods: The was performed using computerized RT testing software. An observational cross-sectional on a group 120 subjects (mean 42.33 ± 21.12 years), sex ratio men women 1.14:1. Data were processed descriptive...
OBJECTIVE: The present study aimed to evaluate opinions of persons who are involved with judo about athletes' personality.METHODS: For this purpose 132 coaches, athletes, students Department Physical Education and Sport Science (DEPESS) military school answered a 35-item questionnaire describing their image towards in regard social, volition, active, physical emotional nature.RESULTS: statistical analysis showed that all the groups rated from average, somewhat strong and, also, strong, while...
In this research, we aimed to investigate a computational model of repetitive reaction time (RT) and virtual (VRT) testing.

Abstract This paper addresses correctional adjustment in young offenders, seeking to identify the variables associated with it. The study was conducted on a sample of adolescents detained Romanian Juveniles Reeducation Centre. Data were gathered using rating scale completed by prison staff (assessing both institutional behavior and psychopathological symptoms) standardized criminological coding form. analysis found statistically significant correlations (p
(1) Background: This research aims to compare social networks among institutionalized and aging-in-place (AIP) older adults through the validation of a new questionnaire. (2) Methods: The cross-sectional study included 100 (mean age: 73.53 ± 5.49 years; age range: 65–85 years), with 48 subjects 52 AIP subjects. We developed, validated, administered questionnaire, Social Network Assessment for Older People Questionnaire (SNAOPQ), assess adults’ using descriptive inferential statistical...
This study examines the relationship between anxious thoughts and well-being, with physical symptoms sadness rumination as mediators, in young people who suffer from anxiety first two years after COVID-19 pandemic.
Entropy is a thermodynamic concept describing the degree of order present in system. This parameter used for informational analysis dynamics that and its forms expression are to evaluate complexity various physiological signals. In terms human motricity, entropy can be quantify movement complexity. The motor adaptation organism involves process conservation energy entropy, which implies compensation between load, body (effector result), environment. variability performance reflected by...
Recent studies indicate that performance of motor skills is influenced by a diversity physiological parameters, such as weight status, aerobic capacity, endurance and muscular strength, but the scientific determinants physical are very specific. The aim was to identify anthropometric in young adults. authors studied factors (as predictor variables) among 230 subjects (average age 22 years, sex ratio 1/1). considered criterion variable results Fundamental Movement Skills Test, Romanian...
The aim of this study was to determine the physiological and biochemical effects chronic exposure whole body vibration on lipid metabolism in 20 healthy young adults (mean age 23.6±2.33 years). Each subject exposed 3 times per week for a total 6 weeks, sessions 15 minutes, at diagonal stimuli, 25 Hz, platform. protocol had positive impact subjects’ composition serum profile, with significant lowering weight, mass index, fat percentage, cholesterol low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (p <...
Antisocial attitudes are one of the best predictors delinquent behavior and thus a primary object screening intervention. In an effort to better evaluate those attitudes, Attitudes Assessment Scale (ATSA) was developed for Romanian adolescents' population (Vasile, 2009). This paper discusses aspects related ATSA validity. A sample 135 high-school students tested using Zuckerman-Kuhlman Personality Inventory. Significant correlations obtained between strength antisocial personality dimensions...
Disability is a frequently encountered condition in Occupational Therapy (OT) and Physical (PT) practice.
