Die motoriese bekwaamheid van Blanke, Kleurling- en Indiërskoolseuns van 12 en 13 jaar / Gideon Jacobus Jordaan HumanHuman, Gideon Jacobus Jordaan January 1970 (has links)
In the past various studies were undertaken to
establish the fact that there are physical differences
between the various races. As there is not much known
about the motor ability of especially the Coloured and
Indian schoolboys, this study was undertaken to ascertain
whether there is any difference in motor ability
between the White, Coloured and Indian boys in this
age group.
After a careful study of the known facts and the
various test batteries for the measurement of motor
ability, a test battery, consisting of six items was
selected. The six items were the 75 yard dash, 220
yards, pull ups on the horizontal bar, shotput,
standing long jump and cricket ball throw for distance.
The length and weight of the body were also taken.
This test battery includes all the components of motor
ability and meets the requirements of a good test.
The six item test battery was administered to 120
Indian, 140 Coloured and 90 White schoolboys. The
selected data was statistically compiled and the
achievement of 12 and 13 year old Whites, 12 and 13
year old Indians and 12 and 13 year old Coloureds were
compared. Thereafter the results of the 12 and 13
year old Whites were compared with that of the Indian
and Coloured boys and the achievement of the Indian
boys was compared with that of the Coloured boys.
The following results were established:
1. No significant differences were found between the
12 and 13 year old Whites except in the shotput where
there was a highly significant difference and a
significant difference in the 75 yard dash and pull ups
in favour of the 13 year olds. The other two races
showed highly significant differences in favour of the
13 year olds in all the test items.
2. The Whites surpassed the other two races highly
significantly in all the test items. The Coloureds,
although highly significantly shorter and significantly
lighter than the Indian boys, surpassed the latter
highly significantly in the cricket ball throw for
distance, the standing long jump; significantly in the
220 yards and insignificantly in the shotput, 75 yard
dash and pull ups, compiled according to McCloy's
formulae.
3. A comparison between the Indian Moslem and Hindu
boys showed that the Moslem boys surpassed the Hindus
highly significantly in all the items except in the
shotput. There is no significant difference between
the 12 and 13 year old Hindu boys.
4. The physical differences between the three racial
groups are inherited and cannot be attributed to
environmental factors only. / Thesis (MEd)--PU vir CHO

Die dokumentasie en danskundige ontleding van bepaalde Suid-Sotho-danse met verwysing na die liggaamlike opvoedingprogram / Madeleine van ZylVan Zyl, Madeleine January 1985 (has links)
Traditional dances of the South Sotho of Qwaqwa were studied as a product
of culture. The two major objectives were: to document, and analyse
specific South Sotho dances and relate them holistically to the culture;
and to determine which dances of the girls and the women would be
suitable for inclusion in the Syllabus for Physical Education for Girls
in the Republic of South Africa according to certain educational
criteria.
The aspects investigated in the study included the following:
1. An ethnographic image of the South Sotho relating to
ancestry, way of life and culture;
2. Dance as a cultural phenomenon and the place and function of
dance in the culture of the South Sotho;
3. The notation of selected dances, an analysis of the dance
movements and choreographic structure of the dances;
4. The educational value of folk and ethnic dances for implementation
in the physical education programme, according to relevant
objectives.
The techniques used to identify, classify, document and analyse the
dances, included fieldwork done through personal observation, participating
observation, video filming of the dances, sound recordings of the songs
and personal interviews. The sequence of steps was notated descriptively
and graphically. The movements of the free body segments and dance
technique were described and the floor pattern of each step sequence, the
information with the accompaniment and the floor plan of the dance were
transcribed graphically. The number of repetitions of the step
sequences and the order of the parts of the dances were notated according
to counts.
The following dances were identified: women's dances - mokgibo,
moqoqopelo, ledingwana, thojane, timiti and famu; girls' dances -
mokgibo, play dances, ndlamu and bale dances; men's dances - mohobelo,
mokorotlo, diphotha and setapo; boys dance the same dances apart
from the mokorotlo. Wedding dances and thojane are also danced
together by both sexes. The four dances which were documented
include the wedding dance Ausi o manele, a play dance (Tikwe ha
malome), ledingwana-women's dance (Diponono ha kena basadi) and
mogogopelo women's dance (Ke lelekuwe bohadi).
The main findings of the study indicated that dance is still
closely interlinked with the cultural life of the South Sotho and
that the purpose of the dance manifests itself mainly in terms of
social recreation. Specific dances of the South Sotho can be
utilized in a meaningful way in the physical education programme for
girls because of the educational value, the link with the cultural
objectives of the folk dance section of the syllabus and the relevance
to the present needs of society. / Thesis (MA) -- PU vir CHO, 1985

The relationship between demographic variables and leisure perceptions of selected South African first year university students / J.T. Weilbach.Weilbach, Johannes Theron January 2013 (has links)
Participation in campus leisure and recreation programmes can provide university students with various benefits, but the provision of effective leisure programmes are complicated by the changes that have taken place in the demographic composition of the student population attending South African universities. Increases in the proportion of black students attending university, and decreases in the proportion of white students means that current students possibly exhibit leisure behaviours that differ from those of their predecessors. With eleven official languages in South Africa, the language diversity among students is a further issue with which leisure professionals have to contend. Students also come from different economic backgrounds, posing additional challenges to universities’ leisure service providers. Since demographic factors, including culturally based perceptions and values, ethnic identity, language, religious beliefs and family structure (Outley & Witt, 2006:112) may influence leisure behaviour and preferences, it is important for leisure professionals to understand how these factors influence the perceptions students have of leisure. For purposes of this study, leisure perceptions are conceptualised to include leisure meanings, leisure experiences and leisure constraints. Due to the lack of research regarding leisure within a South African context (Goslin, 2003:39; Wegner et al. 2006:249) the purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between demographic variables and leisure perceptions of selected South African first-year university students. The study utilised a once off crosssectional research design, using three research instruments, the Leisure Meanings Inventory (LMI), Leisure Experience Battery for Young Adults (LEBYA) and the leisure constraint questionnaire by Raymore et al. (1993:104). An availability sample was used that comprised 344 first-year students in academic programmes related to sport, leisure and recreation studies from six South African universities. Data analysis included confirmatory factor analyses, t-tests, ANOVA and 2-way ANOVA.
For leisure meanings, results indicate that female students are more likely to see leisure as Exercising Choice and Achieving Fulfilment than are male students. Home language also influences leisure meanings, with Afrikaans students seeing leisure as Escaping Pressure, whereas English-speaking students associate it with Passing Time. Students staying in private accommodation associated leisure more with Passing Time than those in university hostels. Furthermore, students that are in a relationship are less likely to see leisure as Achieving Fulfilment than those that are not. For leisure experiences, white students are more aware of leisure benefits and opportunities than are black students, and experience less boredom and distress during their leisure. Additionally, white students are more aware of leisure benefits and opportunities than are Coloured students. Seeing that a lack of awareness of leisure participation benefits and opportunities often are associated with boredom, which in turn is associated with delinquent behaviour, the possibility exists that increased awareness of leisure may assist in combating delinquent behaviour among students. In terms of language, Afrikaans-speaking students and students that speak African languages experienced more challenge in their leisure than their English-speaking counterparts. This result may be either because of ethnic factors, such as traditions or customs associated with specific languages or because of language, per se, as proposed by the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis. With regard to leisure constraints, black students experienced greater interpersonal constraints than did white students, while white students experienced greater structural constraints than did black students. Additionally, Indian students experienced more intrapersonal constraints than did black students. Students staying in university hostels experience less structural constraints than those in private accommodation. Lastly, students from rural areas/informal settlements experienced less intrapersonal and structural constraints than students that grew up in towns and cities.
The study is the first of its kind in South Africa, providing a new insight into leisure, and addressing the paucity of research within the South African context. Recommendations include the implementation of comprehensive leisure education programmes to inform students of the benefits of leisure and the opportunities available to them. In so doing, students can be assisted in negotiating constraints and in developing more complex leisure meanings. In order to meet the challenges, leisure professionals need to know how student diversity affects leisure programming; hence training of current leisure practitioners in the form of short learning programmes is suggested. Future research should include: a) modifications to the research instruments to accommodate the South African population and to increase reliability, b) replicating the study on a broader student population to provide a more detailed picture of leisure perception at South African universities, and c) using a mixed-method research design, including both quantitative and qualitative methods for gathering data. / Thesis (PhD (Recreation Science))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2013.

An evaluation of the level of the moral judgment of behaviourally handicapped adolescent clinic school pupils of normal intelligence / Rowan Alexander JohnsonJohnson, Rowan Alexander January 1990 (has links)
This empirical study aimed at determining any
significant difference in level of moral judgment
between behaviourally handicapped adolescent clinic
school pupils of normal intelligence (experimental
group) and a matched sample of non-behaviourally
handicapped pupils (control group). Moral judgment
level was measured in terms of Global stage Scores and
Weighted Average Scores using Kohlberg's Moral Judgment
Interviews and standard Issue scoring. Secondary aims
were to determine whether the data obtained indicated
significant sex differences in level of moral judgment
and to compare the mean level of moral judgment of the
experimental and control groups with existing research.
A statement and motivation of the problem and clarification of concepts were followed by an evaluation of
applicable pre-Kohlbergian research, the philosophical
foundations of Kohlberg’s theory and the theory itself.
This was followed by an examination of the methods of
research and the empirical study. The data generated
indicated a significant difference in mean level of
moral judgment between the research groups in favour of
the control group when controlling for age, gender and
socio-economic status. This difference was highlighted
by comparisons with existing research. No significant
gender differences in moral judgment were found.
Important conclusions reached were: - Experimental group pupils were retarded in level
of' moral judgment and, unlike the pupils in the
control group, most had not yet reached stage 3
moral reasoning. - Sex differences in moral judgment were not found
as is predicted in Kohlbergian theory (Colby & Kohlberg, 1987: 130). - Sub-group comparisons indicated chronological age to be an important factor in the measurement of
moral judgment. The research findings imply that: - Attempts should be made to raise the level of moral judgment of pupils like those in the experimental group specifically, but also that of all pupils. - Planned moral education programmes can ignore sex differences, but not chronological age. - Varied research into moral judgment is necessary. / Dissertation (MEd)--PU for CHO, 1990

South African personality inventory : the development of an investigation into the psychometric properties of the intellect cluster / A. LabuschagneLabuschagne, Antoinette January 2010 (has links)
The Employment Equity Act, 55 of 1998, Section 8 (Government Gazette, 1998) provides clear guidelines for psychometric testing in South Africa. Due to the cultural complexity of the South African population, personality tests in particular do not always comply with these specifications. Most personality tests used in South Africa have been developed in and imported from other countries, and are consequently not always appropriate for all cultural groups. Also, the majority of indigenous personality tests were developed and standardised specifically for the white population. Today a major challenge in personality assessment development is to develop and standardise inventories for the 11 official language groups in South Africa. The objectives of this study were to develop valid and reliable items for an Intellect–measuring instrument that will form part of a larger personality inventory, to investigate the factor solution of this Intellect cluster, and to compare the factor solutions of the white and African race groups respectively. An Intellect questionnaire consisting of 202 items was developed based on the qualitative phase of the South African Personality Inventory (SAPI). This research served as a pilot study. The sample consisted of (N=524) students from tertiary institutions in the Gauteng and the North West Provinces of South Africa. A quantitative design with an exploratory approach was used to collect data. Statistical analysis was used to analyse the data.
The results indicated that only 18 of the original 202 items proved to be unreliable. Acceptable reliability levels for all facets were found. First–order factor analysis produced two sub–clusters: Aesthetics and Intellect. The Aesthetics sub–cluster consisted of the Artistic, Concrete work and Creative facets, and the Intellect sub–cluster consisted of the Intellect, Knowledgeable, Logical, Self–insight, Articulate, Competent, Enterprising, Perceptive, Social Intellect and Understanding facets. Second–order factor analysis indicated a single–order factor for the Intellect cluster with two second–order factors: Aesthetics and Intellect. Support was found to discard the Musical and Enterprising facets from the Intellect cluster. Similar factor solutions were found for the white and African groups - except for the Musical facet, which loaded on the Aesthetics sub–cluster for the white group and on the Intellect sub–cluster for the African group. Recommendations were made for future research. / Thesis (M.Com. (Industrial Psychology))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2011.
