Relationships Among Team Cohesion and Performance, Anxiety, Retention, and Satisfaction
(East Carolina University, 2015)
In addition to the Group Environment Questionnaire (GEQ), Social Networking Analysis (SNA) has recently emerged as a promising research approach to measuring team cohesion. However, little to no research has simultaneously ...
How do we accelerate while running?
(East Carolina University, 2015)
Running biomechanics are well established in terms of lower extremity joint kinetics as is the direct relationship between these variables and running speed. Many studies have investigated the differences in these variables ...

Effects Of Extracellular Matrix Stiffness On Muscle Fiber Mechanotransduction Signaling In Aged Rats
(East Carolina University, 2015)
The loss of muscle mass with age, termed sarcopenia, is a common problem among the over 60 years-old population. Resistance training is often prescribed as treatment, but older adults have shown a reduced response to ...
Knee Joint Forces in Relation to Ground Surface Stiffness during Running
(East Carolina University, 2017-06-02)
Running shoes and surfaces have been developed to help enhance running efficiency and to reduce ground impacts by altering the total surface stiffness. However, to maintain running mechanics, an individual will increase ...
