Batalha, Nuno; Marmeleira, José; Dias, JoãoIntroduction The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of aerobic training alone or combined with strength training on the physical fitness of young women. Methods Sixty-five women (18–28 years old), who were not engaged in any exercise program for at least one year, were randomly assigned to an aerobic training group, a combined training group, or a control group. The aerobic training consisted of ...
Young swimmers shoulder strength profile: internal and external rotation isokin...
Batalha, Nuno; Raimundo, Armando; Tomas-Carus, Pablo; Marmeleira, José; Silva, AntónioIntroduction The high incidence of overuse shoulder injuries in competitive swimmers is often attributed to both the high repetitive stresses inherent in the sport, as well as muscular imbalances in the humeral rotators (O'Donnell et al., 2005). The purpose of this study was to measure concentric glenohumeral joint internal and external rotation strength, to develop a bilateral descriptive profile in young comp...
Criterion related validity of the short form of the International Physical Acti...
Marmeleira, José; Laranjo, Luís; Marques, Olga; Batalha, NunoThis study examined the criterion validity and measurement bias of the IPAQ-S in adults who are blind using accelerometry as an objective measure of physical activity. Sixty-seven adults who were legally blind participated. The agreement between the ActiGraph and IPAQ-S for the time spent in moderate or vigorous physical activity and in sedentary behavior was examined by a Bland–Altman analysis, in which the di...
Tennis playing is associated to psychomotor speed in older drivers
Marmeleira, José; Melo, Filipe; Tlemcani, Mouhaydine; Fernandes, JorgeThe study investigated the association of tennis playing and running with the psychomotor speed of older drivers. Thirty-six active male drivers ( M age = 63.2 yr.) participated. A battery of four on-the road driving tests was performed by tennis players, runners, and a control group. Measures of simple and choice reaction time, movement time, and response time were collected under singleand dual-task condition...
Physical activity levels in Portuguese high school physical education
Marmeleira, José; Aldeias, Nuno; Graça, PedroThe main aim of this study was to evaluate the physical activity (PA) levels of high school Portuguese students during physical education (PE) and investigate the association of PA levels with students’ goal orientation and intrinsic motivation. Forty-six students from three high schools participated. Heart rate telemetry and pedometry were used to assess PA and the Borg rate of perceived exertion scale was use...
Associations of physical activity with driving-related cognitive abilities in o...
Marmeleira, José; Ferreira, Inês; Melo, Filipe; Godinho, MárioThe purpose of this study was to examine the associations between physical activity and driving-related cognitive abilities of older drivers. Thirty-eight female and male drivers ages 61 to 81 years (M = 70.2, SD = 5.0) responded to the International Physical Activity Questionnaire and were assessed on a battery of neuropsychological tests, which included measures of visual attention, executive functioning, men...
The effects of physical activity on driving ability in older adults
Marmeleira, José Francisco FilipeDoutoramento em Motricidade Humana na especialidade de Ciências da Motricidade ; The research described in this thesis aimed to examine the association between physical activity and driving ability in older drivers. Experimental and observational studies were conducted to evaluate the effects of physical activity both in driving-related abilities and on-the-road driving performance. The investigation was groun...
The Ecological Dynamics of 1v1 Sub-Phases in Association Football
Duarte, Ricardo; Araújo, Duarte; Gazimba, Vítor; Fernandes, Orlando; Folgado, Hugo; Marmeleira, José; Davids, KeithThe purpose of this study was to analyze the informational constraints that influence the dynamics of 1v1 situations in football. Specifically, we analyzed the contribution of interpersonal distance and relative velocity to explain phase transitions that occurred between stable and unstable coordinative states in 1v1 in football. Participants were six, U13 level football players (Mean age: 11.8±0.4 yrs), who pe...
Effects of age in Useful Field of View and Time-to-Arrival
Marmeleira, José; Malarranha, Jorge; Fernandes, Orlando; Godinho, MárioThe main aim of this study was to investigate possible age effects in Useful Field of View (UFOV) and Time to Arrival (TTA). Ninety-six male and female active drivers participated in this research: 32 young drivers (18-30 years old), 32 middle-aged drivers (38-50 years old) and 32 older drivers (60-75 years old). Concerning to UFOV, results showed that older drivers had poorer results in divided attention and s...
The effects of an exercise program on several abilities associated with driving...
Marmeleira, José; Godinho, Mário; Fernandes, OrlandoThe purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of participation in an exercise program on several abilities associated with driving performance in older adults. Thirty-two subjects were randomly assigned to either an exercise group (60–81 years, n = 16) or a control group (60–82 years, n = 16). The exercise program was planned to stress perceptive, cognitive, and physical abilities. It lasted 12 weeks...
