Given these aspects, to which we can add its pedagogical, psychological, sociological valences, the body education is transformed into a higher category, which motivates the wide range of concerns related to the evolution of all the instruments designed to optimize it. On the other hand, given the special character and the particular place that the physical education and sports students occupies in relation to the mentioned category, we believe that the concern for monitoring the evolution of some components of human motility, highlighting the tendency that they register, is motivated.

Starting from this point, the aim of the present study is to decrease the number of students exempted from physical education classes by asking them to fill in a survey before each class. Material and methods: The study was conducted in 4 schools from Oradea, over the course of 12 weeks of middle school classes. Results: A visible result was a decrease in the number of students exempted from physical education by 4 to 6 students. Surprisingly, the number of eighth graders exempted from physical education increased. Conclusions: Implementing surveys over a longer period of time would lead to significant results with regards to student attendance at physical education classes.

In accordance with this task of great importance for school physical education, we mention that this paper aims primarily at the student, but also to improve the activities of teachers in the direction of achieving higher levels, a very important goal in general physical training of students and mainly the development / optimization of aerobic endurance. Goal: the role of this paper is to highlight the effects that “application paths” can generate as means oriented towards the development of aerobic endurance. Methods: In carrying out the research we mainly used the field test method, the observation method and the statistical-mathematical met...

The purpose of this study was to assess bone ultrasound properties in a cohort of subjects with DS with reference to age and body tonicity. A number of 193 subjects with DS and 246 healthy subjects participated in this study. Broadband Ultrasound Attenuation (BUA) was measured. Stabilometric performances were obtained from a force platform. Subjects were divided into four age groups (mean age 10.8 yrs, 15.2 yrs, 20.5 yrs, 33.4 yrs respectively) using a decision tree procedure. Subjects with DS differed from controls for BUA in the two older age groups. Stabilometric performances of the controls were higher for each age group, showing an improvement of stability and tonicity with age. Results of this study showed the bone degradation that occurs at the end of adolescence and in adulthood in individuals with DS. BUA values and stabilometric performances were able to distinguish DS from controls in the two older age groups whose low bone status may be explained by a deficient postural tone.

Material and methods: 45 volunteer young people were involved in the research. The methods used were: 1) field testing method; we monitored the evolution of the heart rate and correlated it with the geographical area; 2) survey/questionnaire method; through a questionnaire, were subjectively identified the potentially hazardous areas and the reasons why they were considered as such; 3) direct observation method; we made a correlation between the subjective physiological response (accelerated breathing, suffocation, sweating) and the ar...

"Functional requirements (a.n.: of a system) describe the desired end function of a system operating within normal parameters, so as to assure the design is adequate to make the desired product and the end product reaches its potential of the design in order to mett user expectations". 1 The qualitative and quantitative evolution of some aspects that define the organization and functioning of the Romanian athletics system can be viable instruments for determining the potential/resources of evolution, as well as indicators for possible adaptive measures correlated with the tendencies. We have carried out a quantitative analysis of the evolution of some components of Romanian athletics system, of the number of clubs and athletes in the National Athletics Championships (by age/categories and events), the stability of the competitors over several years, and t...

The objective and natural connection with the other components of multilateral education is determined by the social needs, by the context in which people must develop from all points of view, both physically and mentally, in order to be able to work efficiently, creatively. Among the motor qualities/capacities, the forms of manifestation of speed extend their manifestation area either on the development of coordination, force and not least on the capacity of the body to sustain an intense physical effort in order to achieve an objective in the shortest time with a relatively constant efficiency, which justifies the interest of those who approach the subject. Given the biological and physiological conditionality regarding the forms...

Abstract: Mountain tourism is a phenomenon that implies many different aspects, involving a large number of activities-some of them seasonal-into and out of "fashion"; after coastal areas and islands, mountains are the most important destination in the world tourism, accounting for about 15-20% of it (over 50 million people annually visit the mountains), which is an annual contribution of about 70-90 billion dollars to the world economy after 1990 with an annual growth rate of 4.7%; for the next two decades is expected a growth rate of 4.1%, being one of the most dynamic global industry.

We hypothesized that the joint activities, cooperation, interaction and direct communication with the natural and social environment will result in a better understanding of oneself and partners, placing the group structure on real bases, prompting avoidance of possible malfunctions in the subsequent group activity. Material/Methods: Subjects of this sociological research were 48 first-year students, participating in "Mountain tourism and sport orientation" (26 males and 22 females), which applied a sociological survey. To achieve the research'e objectives, we used the following methods: a questionnaire, a statistical and mathematical method and a graphical method. Results: In the most part, previous relationships of acceptance, empathy, trust, rejection or isolation were of the interpersonal type, motivation being that they had not previously-as a group or individually-experienced collaboration, mutual assistance, addiction group and so on. Experiences conducted in a common framework, adapted to everyday comfort, provide false opportunities for the knowledge of the self and one another. The ranking of desired partners would change significantly: the originally agreed out of "top 10" instead came to be approved by other subjects (46, 48); a symmetrical aspect applies to unwanted partners, and, in fact, produced a reversal of the scale of values. An important aspect is the knowledge and recognition targeting sociometric's leadership, sense that we can say that the initial place 1, 2, 3 have become 7, 3 and 4 and the final places 1, 2, 3 won the original positions 9, 24 and 2. Conclusions: Knowing the stage achieved in the formation of the group cohesion (through calculation of the cohesion index), before an important step for the group and some period thereafter, will show the effectiveness of the actions taken. Calculation of the index at different stages will reveal in which direction the group evolves: increasing cohesion, stagnant or in decline. The two investigative tools can be a strong support for knowing the socio-emotional bases of a group which usually escapes in direct observation, and especially provides the possibility of an action, an intervention in the group that takes into account the internal organization to enhance its functioning to improve group cohesion, and the establishment of a homogeneous team (an important aspect in sport or other activities with high complexity).

In the new context, unanimously accepted by the permanent education, the spreading of these influences is made not only over the pupils and students, but also over all the categories forming the population. The number of persons choosing tourism has grown and is caused by the need of finding a modality to compensate the characteristics of the modern human being (pollution, stress, inadequate nourishment or supercharging, sedentary life). In relationship with all the other components of sports, tourism has a main advantage through its broad availability.
