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 ...
THE EFFECT OF EXERCISE TIMING ON THE BLOOD GLUCOSE RESPONSE TO A MEAL IN CHILDREN
(2015-04-28)
The aim of the current study was to investigate whether the timing of exercise affects a child’s blood glucose response to a meal. Nine children between the ages of 7 and 11 years were studied. On two separate test days, ...
Effect of Exercise Training on Metabolic Syndrome z-score : the Association of C- reactive protein
(East Carolina University, 2015-06-25)
PURPOSE: Previous studies have shown that metabolic syndrome z-score (MetSynZ) is improved with exercise training. Metabolic syndrome is based upon insulin resistance, such that it would be expected for insulin resistance ...
Effects of a before school physical activity program on physical activity, musculoskeletal fitness, and cognitive function
(East Carolina University, 2015)
Regular physical activity is important for everybody, but may be especially beneficial for children. Despite this, most children in the United States do not meet physical activity recommendations. Schools are a prime ...
The Relationships Between Physical Capacity And Biomechanical Plasticity With Age During Level And Incline Walking
(East Carolina University, 2017-05-11)
Old compared to young adults exhibit a distal-to-proximal redistribution of joint contributions to support phase mechanics during level and incline walking. Although this biomechanical plasticity is now well established ...
Early Metabolic Differences in Alzheimer’s Disease Mouse Model and Exercise Intervention Treatment
(East Carolina University, 2017-06-22)
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that affects the central nervous system (CNS). In this study, we characterized and examined the early metabolic changes of the triple transgenic Alzheimer's disease ...

(East Carolina University, 2017-01-03)
OBJECTIVE: To determine if aromatase protein content differs in abdominal and gluteal adipose tissue and to determine if there are racial differences in aromatase protein content that might influence racial differences ...
The Five-Factor Model of Personality and its Relation to Physical Activity Type
(East Carolina University, 2017-05-03)
Previous research has linked components of the Five-Factor model of personality to physical health and well-being. The strength of these relationships with specific exercise behaviors is, however, not yet known, which may ...
