A HISTORY OF THE PHYSICAL EDUCATION PROGRAM AT FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY, 1901-1978

Unknown Date (has links)
The purpose of this study was to trace, reconstruct, and record the facts, which reflect the development, growth, and continuity of the physical education program at Florida State University, from its beginning through 1978. / Traditional methods of historical research were utilized to locate and investigate primary and secondary sources. A substantial amount of information was obtained from personal interviews with former students and former and present faculty members. Photographs, scrapbooks, personal files containing letters and memorandums, local and college newspapers, college yearbooks, college catalogs and bulletins, and department minutes also provided valuable information. / Investigation revealed that the early physical education program, under the leadership of Katherine Montgomery, gained widespread respect as a vital part of the all-women's college. The college became coeducational in 1947, and a men's department, headed by Howard Danford, was added. Later the men's and women's programs combined, under the leadership of Kenneth Miller. By the mid-1960s the department was conducting a broad-in-scope program which had reached a point of national prominence. From that point there began a splintering process of the various functions conducted by the department until by the conclusion of this study only the teacher preparation phase survived. / The major events contributing toward the specific evolutionary pattern of the department through 1978 were: (1) the dedicated, career-long commitment of Katherine Montgomery, which established a sound basis for the progressive growth of the department's professional teacher training program; (2) the relatively brief but stimulating tenure of Howard Danford who would not be satisified with mediocrity; (3) the combining of the women's department with the men's department in 1947--a situation which had to be, but which, regrettably, resulted in continuous trauma, and which was perhaps the single most important factor in preventing the achievement of the department's full potential; (4) the opposition of a small, but determined, group in the faculty senate, which harassed that body to a point at which the senate shifted its position of strong support to one of eliminating the required physical education program; and, finally, (5) the unaccountable lack of administrative support by a series of deans and presidents who would not back up their off-the-record advocacy with public endorsement. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 41-07, Section: A, page: 2993. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Florida State University, 1980.

A TIME COMPARISON BETWEEN THE CROSS-OVER STEP AND THE SIDE-STEP AND RELATIONSHIP OF SELECTED ANTHROPOMETRIC MEASUREMENTS TO TOTAL MOVEMENT RESPONSE TIME IN RUNNING TO THE SIDE FOR USE BY A VOLLEYBALL PLAYER

Unknown Date (has links)
Fifty three male subjects were used to determine whether the cross-over step or the side step was the most effective technique in starting and traveling a distance of 15 feet to the right and/or left. After determining which method was best the total movement response time was broken down into reaction time and movement time in order to determine where the difference existed in the two methods of lateral movement. The relationship between hip width, leg length, and weight to total movement response time and the relationship between movement time and reaction time were also measured. / A Dekan Automatic Performance Analyzer was used to measure reaction time, speed of movement, and total movement response time. Each subject performed the total movement response time test a total of 10 times, using the cross-over step five times, and the side-step five times. Each subject performed the speed of movement test a total of 10 times, using the cross-over step five times, and the side-step five times. The time recorded for each trial, and the mean of the five trials with each style represented each subject's time for that particular running style. Reaction time was determined for each subject by subtracting each subject's movement time from his total movement response time. / The t test was employed to test for significance of the difference between the cross-over step and the side-step in total movement response time, speed of movement, and reaction time. The Pearson Product-moment correlation technique was used to determine the relationship between selected anthropometric measurements and total movement response time in the cross-over step and side-step. The Pearson Product-moment correlation technique was also employed to determine the relationship between reaction time and speed of movement. / Statistical treatment of data indicated significant difference between the cross-over step and side-step in total movement response time in favor of the cross-over step. When comparing the speed of movement of the cross-over step and side-step, the cross-over step was found to be significantly faster. In comparing the reaction time of the cross-over step and side-step no significant difference was found. According to the results of this study, the cross-over step method of lateral movement was faster than the side-step method for use by volleyball players. Also, the finding indicated that the cross-over step superiority to the side-step method was due to the speed of movement in these two styles of lateral movement. / The Pearson Product-moment correlations obtained between the anthropometric measurement and total movement response time were low and not significant except for leg length and total movement response time in the side-step. The correlations obtained between movement times and reaction times indicated a significant correlation between movement time and reaction time in the side-step, but not in the cross-over step. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 41-01, Section: A, page: 0156. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Florida State University, 1980.

COMPARATIVE STUDY OF THE ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT OF ATHLETES

Unknown Date (has links)
The purpose of this research was to study and compare the academic achievement of current athletes to matched nonathletes and former athletes. Comparisons of the current athletes, within their sport teams and by their sex, were also conducted. / College transcripts were analyzed for a total of 1,033 subjects to determine the number of hours attempted and passed in Basic Studies, major fields of study, and overall. Accumulative and yearly GPAs, yearly and transfer credits, length of time in school, and attrition rates were also calculated for each subject. The transcripts of all athletes were additionally analyzed to determine the extent of their academic achievement during their seasons of sport. When available, the high school GPAs and SAT scores were used in covariant analyses. / The SPSS computer programs for analysis of variance, analysis of covariance, one-way analysis of variance with an LSD post-hoc test and the Student's t-test were utilized to analyze the data. Fourteen null hypotheses were tested for statistical differences. / The results indicated no significant differences in the academic progress of current athletes and matched nonathletes. Current female athletes had significantly higher GPAs than their male counterparts. The current athletes on the various sports teams differed significantly in their patterns of course work, but showed no differences in their GPAs. Former athletes were scholastically superior to the current athletes on most variables studied. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 42-10, Section: A, page: 4354. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Florida State University, 1981.
