The relationship between psychological wellbeing and health-related physical fitness in professional rugby playersPayne, Megan Gayle January 2016 (has links)
Rugby Union is a popular sport both internationally and nationally. The sport has seen a rise in high-intensity activity and is more physically demanding on players since turning professional in 1995. Over the past decade, professional rugby players have made frequent appearances in the media due to lapses in psychological, physical, and social wellbeing, suggesting professional rugby players may experience compromised health. Research has largely ignored rugby players' health when health is defined beyond injury. The present study aimed to provide insight into the health of professional rugby players by investigating two components of health, namely psychological and physical wellbeing and the relationship between these facets. Two hundred and thirty-eight (238) professional male rugby union players, situated at the Investec Rugby Academy participated in the study. Psychological wellbeing (PW) was measured by the State Trait Personality Inventory (form Y) (STPI-Y) and the Sport Competitive Anxiety Test (adult form) (SCAT-A). Physical wellbeing was defined as health-related physical fitness (HRPF). HRPF was assessed by measurements of the rugby players' body composition, physical fitness, and heart health. Pearson's correlation co-efficient was calculated between the variables used to measure HRPF and PW. The results showed the rugby players experience average levels of competitive anxiety, above average levels of anger, anxiety, and depression and a relatively high level of curiosity. The rugby players had a high level of HRPF, with the exception of body composition (particularly BMI), cardiovascular endurance, muscle strength and endurance, and heart health (when measured according to the CSI), which indicate a moderate risk to the players' health. Furthermore, the results show significant correlations between variables of HRPF and PW in the rugby players. The findings that indicate professional rugby players do not experience optimal PW and HRPF, as well as the significant correlations found between the variables of the rugby players PW and HRPF, suggest these players may be in a state of overtraining or experiencing overtraining syndrome. / Mini Dissertation (MA)--University of Pretoria, 2016. / Psychology / MA / Unrestricted

Bienestar psicológico y autoeficacia en universitarios migrantes en lima metropolitana / Psychological well-being and self-efficacy in migrant university students in Metropolitan limaMore Crisanto, Tania Steinner 09 June 2020 (has links)
Se indaga sobre la relación que existe entre el bienestar psicológico y la autoeficacia en una muestra de 153 universitarios migrantes de Lima Metropolitana, con una edad promedio de 21,43 años (D.E.= 2.12), de los cuales el 62% fueron mujeres y el 38% varones de universidades privadas de Lima. Se emplearon como instrumento de medida, la escala de bienestar psicológico, adaptada al contexto peruano por Domínguez (2014) y la escala de autoeficacia General empleada por Terry (2008). Los resultados muestran una correlación positiva entre la autoeficacia y las variables de aceptación y control (r = .295, p< .01) y autonomía (r = .411, p< .01). Además, se muestran diferencias estadísticamente significativas al comparar el bienestar psicológico entre quienes tienen y no pareja; mientras que se observan estadísticamente significativas al comparar la autoeficacia en función a tener o no pareja, género y edad. Se concluye que algunas dimensiones del bienestar psicológico se relacionan con la autoeficacia; además se observan diferencias significativas al comparar ambas variables entre otras de tipo sociodemográfico. / The relationship between psychological wellbeing and self-efficacy is investigated in a sample of 153 university migrants from the province to Metropolitan Lima, with an average age of 21.43 years (SD = 2.12), of which 62% were women and 38% men from private universities in Lima. The scale of psychological wellbeing, which is adapted to our environment by Domínguez (2014) and the scale of general self-efficiency used by Terry (2008), was used as a measuring instrument. The results show a positive correlation in relation to self-efficacy and acceptance and control variables (r = .295, p <.01) and autonomy (r = .411, p <.01). In addition, statistically significant differences are shown when comparing psychological well-being between those who have and not a partner; while it is observed statistically to compare when comparing self-efficacy according to having or not having a partner, gender and age. It is concluded that some dimensions of psychological well-being are related to self-efficacy; In addition, different differences are observed when comparing both variables among others of sociodemographic type. / Tesis

Social medietrötthet och uppmärksamhet : - deras relation till KASAMJohansson Österman, Johanna, Moilanen, Ida January 2023 (has links)
Socialt medieanvändande är en vana för många människor. Åtskilliga studier har konstaterat att socialt medieanvändande både kan öka och minska känslan av gemenskap. Känsla av sammanhang (KASAM) är ett centralt begrepp i det salutogena perspektivet och en skyddsfaktor mot ohälsa. Studien undersökte relationen mellan KASAM och socialt medieanvändande med ett urval om 129 personer. För att besvara frågeställningarna konstruerades en enkät bestående av fyra skalor nämligen KASAM, Attention Control Scale, Social Media Fatigue Scale och Hälsosamma Internetbeteenden. Analysmetoderna var korrelationsanalyser och regressionsanalyser. Analyserna visade att KASAM har betydelse för uppmärksamhet och social medietrötthet. Kön, ålder och KASAM har betydelse för hälsosamma internetbeteenden. KASAM har ett positivt samband med uppmärksamhet och hälsosamma internetbeteenden och ett negativt samband med social medietrötthet. Samband noterades mellan social medietrötthet och uppmärksamhet. Slutsatsen var att en stark KASAM skyddar mot ohälsa vid socialt medieanvändande. Den egenkonstruerade skalan Hälsosamma Internetbeteenden genererade signifikanta, men inte reliabla resultat.

Kvinnors upplevelse av livskvalité vid endometrios / Womens experience of quality of life with endometriosisPeterson, Hanna, Waldefeldt, Sofia January 2022 (has links)
Bakgrund Endometrios är en sjukdom där livmoderslemhinna lokaliseras utanför livmodern som resulterar i en inflammatorisk process. Vanliga symtom inkluderar allvarlig smärta under menstruation och ägglossning, förstoppning, diarré och infertilitet. Hälso-relaterad livskvalitet definieras som hur mycket hälsoproblemet påverkar det vardagliga livet och hur stor möjlighet personen har att leva ett, enligt denna, tillfredsställande liv. Vårdande möten behöver tre nyckelfaktorer för att skapa trygghet, att patienten blir bemött med empati och lyssnad på, får personlig utformad information samt kompetens inom medicinteknik. Syfte Syftet var att belysa hur livskvaliteten påverkas hos kvinnor med diagnosen endometrios. Metod Icke-systematisk litteraturöversikt som inkluderade 15 originalartiklar med både kvalitativ och kvantitativ ansats. Artiklar hittades under sökningar av PubMed och CINAHL med användning av Booelsk söklogik. En kvalitetsgranskning gjordes på alla inkluderade artiklar med hjälp av Sophiahemmet högskolas bedömningsunderlag för kvalitetsgranskning. Analysen genomfördes med hjälp av en integrerad litteraturöversikt. Resultat Fyra huvudteman identifierades under sammanställningen av resultaten och de var livskvalitet kopplat till mötet med omvärlden, livskvalitet kopplat till sexlivet, livskvalitet kopplat till karriären och livskvalitet kopplat till psykiskt mående. Den mest centrala aspekten som påverkade kvinnor med endometrios liv var smärta. Smärtan påverkade arbetslivet negativt, det sociala livet och intima relationer påverkades också negativt och smärtan var en stor psykisk påfrestning. Slutsats Denna litteraturöversikt visade att kvinnor med endometrios har sämre livskvalitet jämfört med kvinnor utan sjukdomen. Deras liv påverkades i flera aspekter, deras sociala liv, intima relationer, psykiskt mående samt karriären påverkades negativt. Det framkom även att ett bra bemötande från hälso- och sjukvården men även från andra människor minskade lidandet hos kvinnan och förbättrade hennes livskvalitet. / Background Endometriosis is an illness where endometrium is found outside of the uterus resulting in an inflammatory process. Common symptoms include severe pain during menstruation and ovulation, constipation, diarrhoea and infertility. Health related quality of life is defined as how much everyday life is affected and how large the possibility is of the person living, according to them, a satisfactory life. Caring encounters need three key aspects to create security, the patient being met with empathy and listened to, get personally designed information and competence in medical technology. Aim The aim was to illustrate how quality of life is affected in women with the diagnosis endometriosis. Method Non-systematic review including 15 original articles with both qualitative and quantitative approaches. Articles were found during searches of PubMed and CINAHL using a Boolean approach. A quality review of all articles included was conducted using Sophiahemmet University assessment basis for scientific classification and quality. Analysis was conducted using the integrative review method. Results Four main themes were identified during the compilation of the results, and those were quality of life related to the meeting with the surrounding world, quality of life related to sex life, quality of life related to career and quality of life related to psychological being. The most central aspect that affected women with endometriosis lives was pain. The pain affected working life negatively, the social life and intimate relationships was also negatively affected, and the pain was a great mental strain. Conclusions This literature review showed that women with endometriosis has a lower quality of life compared to women without the disease. Their lives were affected in multiple aspects, their social lives, intimate relationships, psychological being and the career was negatively affected. It became evident that a good encounter with healthcare but also with other people lessened the suffering of the women and improved her quality of life.

Adult Attachment, Culturally Coherent Coping, Familism, and Psychological Wellbeing among Latine College StudentsKoh, Ashley 05 1900 (has links)
Extant psychological research has consistently demonstrated that insecure attachment is negatively associated with psychological outcomes and positively correlated with the utilization of maladaptive coping strategies. However, no empirical studies could be located that examined the indirect effect of insecure attachment on wellbeing variables via coping focused on Latine populations. This study explored the direct and indirect effects of insecure attachment on psychological wellbeing indicators via culturally coherent coping strategies. Further, the present study examined the potential moderating effect of familism on the indirect effect models. Findings indicated that (1) anxious attachment, but not avoidant attachment, predicted psychological wellbeing; (2) positive reinterpretation significantly mediated the relations between insecure attachment and psychological wellbeing; (3) seeking emotional social support significantly mediated the relations between insecure attachment variables and general self-efficacy but not psychological distress; (4) religious coping significantly mediated the relations between insecure attachment and psychological distress but not general self-efficacy; and (5) familism was positively associated with psychological wellbeing but no significant moderator effect was found. Findings from our study contribute to the paucity of literature on attachment and culturally coherent coping within the Latine community. The limitations of the study, future research directions, and relevant clinical implications are reviewed.

WINNING RELATIONSHIP: A PSYCHOSOCIAL APPROACH TO TALENT DEVELOPMENTREVERBERI, ELEONORA 02 April 2019 (has links)
Il lavoro ha esplorato il tema dello sviluppo del talento nello sport a partire da una prospettiva psicosociale. Per fare questo si è posto due obiettivi principali: il primo di esplorare la letteratura sul talento nello sport per identificare quelle teorie che meglio potessero rispecchiare l'approccio psicosociale. Il secondo obiettivo è stato quello di studiare empiricamente come le relazioni impattano sul benessere psicologico dei giovani atleti, ipotizzando che esso si possa considerare una condizione particolarmente favorevole per lo sviluppo del potenziale. La ricerca condotta non solo ha identificato con successo una serie di teorie che sostengono l'utilizzo dell'approccio psicosociale allo sviluppo del talento, ma ha anche dimostrato come migliori relazioni, mediate da una serie di variabili psicologiche individuali, vadano ad influenzare positivamente il benessere psicologico di giovani calciatori, e quindi secondo l'ipotesi del lavoro, il loro efficace sviluppo come atleti. / the work explored talent development in sport following a psychosocial approach. It has two main aims: the first was to explore literature on talent development in sport to identify theories that better support psychosocial approach to talent development. the second aim was to study empirically how relationship impact on psychological wellbeing of young talented athletes, hypotesizing that it describes a particularly effective ground breaking condition for the development of potentiality. Research finds support for psychosocial approach to talent development in many theories on talent development, and next to this it also show how having positive relationship impact on psychological wellbeing thanks to the mediation effect of psychological characteristics and consequently of athletes' potential.

Assessing factors in utilisation of health services and community aged care services by the Iranian elderly living in the Sydney metropolitan areaAlizadeh khoei, Mahtab January 2008 (has links)
Doctor of philosophy (PhD) / Abstract As one of the most culturally diverse countries in the world, Australia has a high proportion of minority communities. However, its ageing population, particularly within these ethnic minorities, faces a range of barriers or difficulties in gaining access to and using health and aged care services. This study aims to identify the acculturation factors that affect the health status of Iranian-born elderly immigrants to Australia and their utilisation of health and community aged care services. The results of this study will be of value to Iranian elders, their families, and Australian aged health care service providers. The findings could also contribute towards enriched multicultural policy and improved social fairness, access to services, and equity for the aged from different ethnic backgrounds. 302 Iranian migrants aged 65 years who had lived in the Sydney Metropolitan area for at least six months were surveyed via a written questionnaire, face-to-face interviews, and telephone interviews. The results were analysed using SPSS and then compared to the findings from a 1999 survey of NSW elderly. The results indicate that Iranian migrants suffer higher levels of psychological distress and are more limited in their physical functioning than the general population of older Australians. They are in greater need of assistance with activities of daily living, have a lower sense of wellbeing, and are far less likely to utilise aged care services. Iranian migrant who do not speak English at home experience these disadvantages to an even greater extent English language proficiency was the only acculturation factor found to affect whether Iranian elderly utilised health and community aged care services, while ability to engage in activities of daily living (ADL) was the only health variable associated with their utilisation of community supportive aged care services. This variable did not predict the use of community aged care services in the broader sample of NSW respondents. Since limited proficiency in English placed elderly Iranian migrants at greater health risk and impeded their access to necessary assistance, the findings suggest that they would clearly benefit from English classes and from access to health and community care services and information regarding these services in the Farsi language.
