This document summarizes a presentation on shaping evidence-based social policy for people with disabilities through sport. It finds that while evidence confirms benefits of physical activity for health, evidence for using sport specifically is limited. Studies have narrow ranges of disabilities, interventions, and outcomes, and variable quality. Limitations include underpowered studies, few representing many disabilities, and lack of consistent definitions or theoretical frameworks. Current trends favor lifestyle outcomes and proactive policies. Recommendations include better defining sport as a health intervention, using common frameworks, prioritizing underrepresented groups, and identifying factors affecting sport participation.

Physical Activity in Australian Adults: A Public Health Perspective
Physical inactivity poses health risks for the majority of Australian adults and is a modifiable risk factor for diseases like cardiovascular disease and diabetes. While guidelines recommend at least 150 minutes of moderate physical activity per week, surveys found about 40% of Australians do not meet this level. Individual education interventions have shown only moderate short-term effectiveness in increasing physical activity levels. Environmental interventions also have limited effectiveness, and population physical activity levels remain largely unchanged. Intersectoral actions across multiple areas may be needed to more successfully promote physical activity.
PREVALENCE OF PHYSICAL INACTIVITY
This document outlines a study on factors associated with physical inactivity among first year undergraduate students at Universiti Putra Malaysia. It includes a literature review on previous research examining relationships between physical inactivity and socio-demographic factors, environmental support, mental health, self-efficacy, and body image. The document presents the study objectives, conceptual framework, and methodology, which will involve a cross-sectional study using cluster sampling of first year undergraduates to examine associations between physical inactivity and various independent variables.
Evidence based physical activity for school age youth
This document summarizes an expert panel's review of evidence on the effects of physical activity on health outcomes in school-age youth. The panel identified over 850 relevant articles through a systematic search. They found:
1) Most intervention studies showed benefits of 30-45 minutes per day of moderate to vigorous physical activity 3-5 days per week. However, the panel believed greater amounts would be needed for benefits under normal circumstances.
2) The panel concluded that school-age youth should participate in 60 minutes or more per day of moderate to vigorous physical activity from a variety of activities.
3) Physical activity was associated with reduced adiposity, especially for overweight youth, and improved cardiovascular health factors like blood lipid levels and aer
Fall Prevention Through Physical Activity
Learn about how to minimize falls risks by maintaining healthy bones and joints through physical activity.
Falls Fractures and Frailty
Falls are common in older adults and can have serious consequences. Exercise interventions, particularly high intensity balance and strength training 3 times per week, have been shown to effectively reduce falls rates. For those living in the community, not all fallers need to be seen by a doctor. Frail patients may benefit from a comprehensive geriatric assessment to address their risk factors.
IPTC 2014 health and wellness.v4
This document discusses the importance of health and wellness. It provides statistics showing that most adults do not meet exercise guidelines and have unhealthy diets. Maintaining good physical and mental health is important as noted by several historical figures. Barriers to health and wellness include lack of time, motivation and access. The document explores how behavior analysis principles like goal setting, feedback, and reinforcement can help people improve their health behaviors but acknowledges that competing priorities and life events can interfere. It questions how organizations and practitioners can apply these lessons to better support clients and their own wellness goals.
draft adult participation in excercise-3
This study examined barriers and motivations for exercise participation among adults in South Bradford. Questionnaires were given to two groups - a weight maintenance group and weight loss group. Barriers identified included lack of time, cost, lack of confidence in joining a gym, and associating exercise with boredom. The weight maintenance group exercised more minutes per week than the weight loss group, but the weight loss group exercised more times per week. Limitations included a small sample size focused only on clients of one company.

Functionality and Attitudes in Relation to Aging of Elderly Women Practicing Physical Exercises by Daniel Vicentini de Oliveira in Gerontology & Geriatrics studies
The objective was to verify the attitudes regarding old age and the functional capacity of elderly women practicing physical exercises. This is a cross-sectional study, realized with 200 women. The Functional Protocol of the Latin American Development Group for Maturity (GDLAM) and the Scale for Assessment of Attitudes in Relation to Old Age was used. There was a significant correlation only in the stand up from sitting position test, with the domains of expectations regarding activity (r=-0.31), satisfaction with life (r=0.38) and death anxiety (r=-0.27). It can be concluded that there is correlation between some domains of the functional capacity test and the attitudes towards old age.

Moving matters-final 2019
This document summarizes research from over 50 studies evaluating interventions to increase physical activity levels across different age groups and settings. The research shows mixed results, with some interventions like tailored walking programs and changes to the built environment effectively increasing activity, while other school-based programs had little impact. Overall, the review finds that there are no single solutions and a range of factors must be addressed to help populations become more active.
Fit Bit Poster-36x48inches
This study examined the feasibility of using Fitbit Flex activity trackers in a 7-week walking program for 12 individuals with schizophrenia spectrum disorder (SSD). Participants received weekly step count goals and meetings to discuss physical activity. Most participants increased daily step counts, and reported improvements in performance and satisfaction with activities. While no changes in body composition were found, participants identified the Fitbit, step count increases, and praise as motivators for physical activity. Medication side effects were the primary barrier reported. The study demonstrates that wearable trackers may help track and encourage walking in individuals with SSD.
NCUR 2015 SWAY Balance
This study investigated whether balance scores measured by the SWAY Balance System could predict injury risk in intercollegiate athletes and whether balance scores improved over a sports season. 68 athletes from various winter sports underwent pre-season and post-season balance testing using SWAY. A weak correlation was found between higher double stance scores and lower injury occurrence. Most athletes showed improved balance scores after the season. While SWAY showed potential as a predictor, larger studies are needed to better determine its predictive abilities.
Freshman Physical Activity Program
This document outlines a proposed intervention to increase physical activity among freshmen at Kansas State University. The intervention includes physical activity classes, laboratory sessions teaching exercises, and providing exercise kits for dorms. An evaluation plan involves initial and final surveys of freshmen to assess changes in physical activity, as well as monthly process surveys to track program participation and feedback. The goal is to increase physical activity knowledge and self-efficacy, leading to higher physical activity levels and potential long-term health benefits for students.
Alzheimer's Disease Prevention Proposal
This document discusses Alzheimer's disease (AD) as a major public health problem in Australia. It is the second leading cause of death and affects about 30% of those over 85. The aging population means costs associated with AD will rise dramatically to $16.7 billion by 2036. Nearly 70% of Australian adults are sedentary, increasing their risk of AD. Modifiable risk factors include physical inactivity, smoking, obesity, and diabetes. The goal is to increase access to physical exercise for sedentary workers aged 40-45 in Sydney to reduce AD risk. Evidence shows physical activity can improve brain health and reduce AD risk. The proposed intervention includes a workplace physical activity program and education on exercise benefits.
Psychology of disability sport participation and performance
This document discusses research on participation in disability sport. It begins by reviewing literature that has identified barriers and facilitators to participation, as well as perceived benefits. Common barriers include impairment severity, lack of accessibility, and lack of social support. Facilitators include a sense of athletic identity, self-efficacy, social support, enjoyment, and goal setting. Perceived benefits include improved self-esteem, physical self-concept, stress reduction, and social well-being. The document then discusses models of disability beyond the traditional medical model, and focuses on two areas of disability sport - participation and performance.
Naylor & James ISDPA Slides
This document summarizes a study examining consumer perspectives on sport participation and the societal benefits of sport. The study tested relationships between attitudes about the importance of societal dimensions of sport, motivations for sport participation, and intentions to participate in sport. Survey results from 720 participants found that physical, sociological, and psychological dimensions were viewed as most important. Younger participants saw greater importance in all dimensions than older participants. While motivations correlated with importance ratings, they were poor predictors of participation intentions. The implications are that marketers should promote the societal benefits of sport to increase participation.
Mental health
This document discusses a research study investigating predictive factors that influence the mental health status of Australia's university students. The study examines physical activity, social and emotional wellbeing, and sporting club involvement as predictive factors. It measures these factors across personal, university, home, and community domains. The study aims to establish patterns of association between the predictive factors and students' mental health status using a mixed methods approach involving quantitative and qualitative data collection and analysis.
Naylor ISDPA Presentation
This document summarizes a study that examined consumer perspectives on sport participation as a mechanism for social change and the resulting marketing implications. The study tested relationships between constructs like the importance of societal dimensions of sport, sport participation motives, and participation intentions. It found that physical, sociological, and psychological dimensions were viewed as most important. Younger participants perceived greater importance of dimensions than older groups. While motives correlated with importance, they were poor predictors of intentions. The implications are that marketers should highlight benefits of participation to build membership. Further research with an ecological model is needed.

This document summarizes a study that examined consumer perspectives on sport participation as a mechanism for social change and the resulting marketing implications. The study tested relationships between how important consumers view the societal dimensions of sport participation, their motivations for participation, and their intentions to participate. The study found that participants and non-participants did not differ in how important they viewed the societal benefits of participation. Younger consumers viewed the dimensions as more important than older consumers. The study developed a reliable scale to measure the importance of societal dimensions. Further research is needed to add more complexity to the models of motivation and outcomes. The implications are for sport marketers to highlight the societal benefits of participation to build membership.Navigating the Concussion Frontier by Brian Hainline

My Power Point
The document discusses the relationship between PTSD and obesity in veterans. It presents evidence that PTSD is a risk factor for obesity, but current VA clinical guidelines do not incorporate PTSD screening. The document proposes modifying existing guidelines to include screening veterans for PTSD as a risk factor for obesity. It outlines a plan to implement this change, including educating officials, modifying guidelines, and collecting data through the VA system to evaluate outcomes. The goal is to improve recognition of obesity risk factors and ultimately reduce treatment costs.

The study surveyed 198 Greek students aged 15-17 years on their physical activity levels using the stages of change model. The majority (63%) were physically active in stages 4 or 5, with 53% in stage 5 having maintained an active lifestyle for over 6 months. Boys showed higher activity levels than girls at 75% versus 54%. Younger students (1st grade) had higher activity levels than older students (78% versus 50% for 3rd grade). Thus, inactivity seemed more pronounced among girls and older students. The researchers concluded that physical activity programs and services should emphasize girls and older students more prone to inactivity.
Michael Mc Corry
This document summarizes Michael McCorry's PhD research on interventions to reduce sedentary behavior in older adults. It outlines the objectives to systematically review literature on physical activity and behavioral interventions targeting sedentary time in older populations. A search of various databases retrieved over 19,000 records, which were screened according to PRISMA guidelines. 10 studies met the inclusion criteria and were reviewed in detail, finding mostly low quality evidence and small effect sizes of interventions. The conclusions call for improved measurement of sedentary behavior and more developed interventions in early-stage research.
Process to Product and Product to Process - Professor Gareth Stratton
The document summarizes the process used by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) to develop public health guidance on promoting physical activity in children and young people. NICE assesses evidence on physical inactivity risks, effective interventions, and cost-effectiveness to produce recommendations. Recommendations target organizations and practitioners involved in children's physical activity and aim to increase participation through enjoyment, cultural sensitivity, and gradual involvement.
PEPAYS Presentation
This study examined the relationship between various modes of physical activity (PA) and academic achievement in adolescents. It found that:
1) Males engaged in higher levels of PA than females across most modes measured, including habitual PA, active transport, physical education, extra-curricular sport, and community-based sport.
2) For males, habitual PA and physical education minutes were positively correlated with academic achievement. For females, only physical education minutes were positively correlated.
3) Physical education minutes emerged as the strongest predictor of academic achievement for both males and females in regression analysis.
The study concluded that physical education should be adequately included in the school curriculum due to its associations with academic achievement. It also noted

This document summarizes a study that aimed to predict factors influencing stretching exercise behavior among office employees based on Pender's Health Promotion Model. The study used questionnaires to assess interpersonal influences, situational influences, and stretching exercise behavior in 420 office employees. Results showed a significant relationship between interpersonal influence and stretching exercise, but not between situational influence and stretching exercise. Interpersonal influences were found to strongly predict stretching exercise behavior. Therefore, the study concluded that interpersonal factors could be an important principle for health education programs to promote stretching exercise behavior according to Pender's model.

For elderly patients at risk of falls in long-term care, a nurse-led exercise program aimed at improving strength and balance, conducted twice weekly for six months, may reduce fall incidence compared to no such program. The proposed program would train nurses to lead classes incorporating balance, coordination, and lower body exercises shown to lower fall risks. Patients' balance, strength, self-efficacy, and fall risks would be measured before, during, and after the six-month program to evaluate its effectiveness in reducing falls.
Coaching disabled athletes
This document discusses sport coaching pedagogy for disabled athletes. It defines disability and provides examples. It notes that around 40% of Australians have a disability or health problem. The background section emphasizes the importance of including disabled people in sports and not discriminating against them. Coaching disabled athletes can provide benefits like well-being, quality of life, and social aspects. Barriers to participation include equipment, accessibility, program modifications, and attitudes. Effective coaching of disabled athletes requires focusing on ability over disability, adapting activities, and good communication.

Criminal damage
The document discusses criminal damage offenses under the Criminal Damage Act 1971. It outlines the 3 offenses as basic criminal damage, aggravated criminal damage, and arson as defined in Section 1 of the Act. For basic criminal damage, the 3 elements that must be proven are: 1) destruction or damage, 2) to property, and 3) belonging to another. Damage is broadly defined based on case law. Aggravated criminal damage requires the additional element of intending or recklessly endangering life. Defenses to criminal damage are also provided in Section 5 of the Act.
Evidence based social work
1. Evidence-based policy and practice aims to objectively assess the quality of social research evidence to inform decisions. However, some argue that claiming evidence can be isolated from political influences and that it should be privileged in policymaking are "brave claims".
2. All observation is theory-laden, so the quest for objective truths is questionable. Quality assessment depends on judgments and values, not just methods.
3. Evidence-based practice aims to minimize gaps between research evidence and practice/policy to improve outcomes. However, drawing on research findings in practice is still limited. Assessing alternative practices requires consideration of clients' values and informed consent.
FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS
This document provides information about fundamental rights for a student named Vineetha Mol R.

The constitution aims to ensure justice, freedom, equality and fraternity for all citizens through these fundamental rights.
Legal system of sri lanaka
The document summarizes the legal system and court structure of Sri Lanka. It discusses the main sources of law that make up Sri Lanka's legal system, including Roman-Dutch law, Kandyan law, Thesawalamai law, and Muslim special law. It then describes the hierarchy of courts in Sri Lanka, from the Supreme Court down to Primary Courts and various tribunals. It also distinguishes between criminal and civil cases and the courts that handle each type.
What is law and introduction to law in Sri Lanka
1. Sri Lankan law has been influenced by Sinhala, Tamil, Muslim, Kandyan, Thesawalamai, Portuguese, Dutch, British, and Roman-Dutch legal traditions due to its multi-ethnic and colonial history.
2. The legal system includes civil law, criminal law, and various personal laws, as well as a court system headed by the Supreme Court and Court of Appeal.
3. Alternative dispute resolution methods like mediation and arbitration are also used to reduce the courts' caseload in addition to tribunals that handle specific types of disputes.

David French presentation- Exercise and Health conference
This document summarizes research on promoting physical activity. It finds that:
1) Simply communicating health risks is not effective at changing behavior, but combining risk information with strategies to improve self-efficacy and response efficacy can have larger effects.
2) Brief interventions that focus on goal setting, action planning, and overcoming barriers can successfully increase walking levels.
3) Techniques shown to improve both self-efficacy and physical activity include action planning, reinforcing progress, instruction, and graded tasks.
4) Older adults want physical activity experiences that are enjoyable, social, and allow improvements in function at their own pace without pressure. Satisfaction and self-efficacy predict long-term

The document discusses physical, social, and cultural barriers that females face in participating in sports. It notes that in many societies, females are restricted from sports and physical activity due to cultural norms. The document examines different types of barriers, including physical barriers like lack of access, socio-cultural barriers like religious restrictions, and knowledge barriers where females may not be aware of the health benefits of activity. It discusses how schools and policies could help address these barriers by providing female-inclusive physical education programs and challenging social stereotypes that depict sports as masculine. The goal is to promote regular physical activity for females by reducing barriers at multiple levels.

Perceived exercise benefits and barriers among power wheelchair soccer players
Power wheelchair soccer players perceived both personal and environmental benefits to exercise. The most commonly perceived benefit was "Exercising lets me have contact with friends and persons I enjoy." Those with muscular dystrophy perceived exercise as significantly less important than other groups. The most common perceived barriers were "Exercise is hard work for me," "Exercise tires me," and "There are too few places for me to exercise." Perceptions of benefits and barriers did not significantly differ based on age, sex, or experience, though those with cerebral palsy reported more physical benefits than those with muscular dystrophy.

Dr. robert brown militaristic displays in professional sportsInternational Sport for Development and Peace Association
This document discusses the use of militaristic displays in professional sports and examines the degree to which sporting events can promote pro-war propaganda. It argues that while national anthem ceremonies celebrate patriotism, additional military elements like jet flyovers may promote the military. During WWII and Vietnam, sports further promoted the military through activities like recruitment drives in stadiums and using athletes to encourage donations for the war effort. The document analyzes the continuum from patriotic displays to outright military promotion and argues some events have crossed into pro-war propaganda.Charles deutsch introduction to keynote panel

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

Liz Adams Shaping Evidence Based Social Policy
- 1. Shaping evidence-based social policy for the disabled: Making the case for sport to improve health and well-being Liz Adams, MPH, VA Technology Assessment Program, Boston Ted Fay, PhD, SUNY Cortland Presented to: ISDPA Power of Sport Summit June 10-12, 2010
- 2. Evaluation of sport from an individual & global public health perspective Evidence-based social policy: myths & realities Evidence Current policy trends Recommendations for policy & research Oh, the possibilities!!! Objectives
- 3. “Public Health is defined as improvement of health through the organized efforts of society—social interventions.” (Gray 1997) Sport is an organized social intervention for health improvement Physical activity through sport is an attainable & essential health behavior A Public Health Perspective
- 5. Evidence-based Social Policy: What it is Policy based on a systematic appraisal of the best available evidence in the context of societal values & available resources (Gray 1997) Evidence = science & experiences
- 6. Policy makers must have the skills to find & assess the quality & applicability of available evidence Policy shapers must be able to produce & present the evidence on which a decision change should be based To Affect Evidence-based Social Policy
- 7. Impossible to practice “Cookbook” Restricted to RCTs & meta-analyses Cost-cutting Evidence-based Social Policy: What it isn’t
- 9. Sport orgs help promote social policies, healthy environments & behavior
- 11. Maximize community participation Evidence-based Social Policy: Why we need it
- 12. Systematic/critical reviews published from 2000-present in English Databases: Pubmed, EBSCO Rehabilitation and Sports Medicine Source, Cochrane Lib, Embase, Current Contents, Social Science/Science Citation Index, PsychInfo Terms: “sport”, “exercise”, “physical activity”, “physical fitness”, “recreation” & “leisure” All disabilities All outcomes What is the Evidence?
- 13. Psychological benefits of sport (non-sys review) Empowerment model: performance accomplishments & functional efficiency perceived self-efficacy, self-concept & self-esteem personality disorders, mood states & locus of control activity level & social acceptance Findings: “most psychological constructs expressed within the empowerment model are positively affected by physical activity in disabled people, when applied properly” Multiple study design limitations What is the Evidence? Hutzler 1993
- 14. Survey of sport disability, age & scientific discipline Most frequent subjects = wheelchair users (58%), adults (90%), males (98%) Most frequent outcomes= physiology (41%), psychology (29%) Findings: Evidence base represented assessment of physiological responses to physical activity in adult males who used wheelchairs What is the Evidence? Hutzler 1999
- 15. Physical activity & exercise, age ≥ 60 yrs 2 SR + 2 critical reviews: 11- 41 RCTs Findings: Exercise enhances strength, aerobic capacity & function esp. walking, but unclear if exercise prevents or minimizes disability Multiple study design limitations What is the Evidence? Keysor 2003
- 16. Physical activity in youth w/developmental disability, ages 0-20 3 SR, 1 RCT, 13 uncontrolled studies Findings: Strong evidence for group exercise, treadmill training, therapeutic riding/hippotherapy Lower evidence for adapted skiing, aquatic programs Positive outcomes: enjoyment, satisfaction or physical benefit Study limitations What is the Evidence? Johnson 2009
- 17. Health promotion activities, age 18-65 80 studies: 32 RCTs, 16 NRCTs, 32 NR uncontrolled Disability groups w/ higher prevalence (20% stroke, 15% MS, 13% intellectual disability (Downs)) Interventions: 26% aerobic, 25% strength, 23% combo Outcomes: 62.5% functional, 42% musculoskel., 27% cardioresp., 26% mental Findings: Overall broad in scope, limited quality & generalizability What is the Evidence? Rimmer 2010
- 18. Sport & games in ↓ symptoms of PTSD (Lawrence 2010) Policy interventions through sport orgs to promote healthy behavioral changes (Priest 2008) Policy interventions through sport orgs for increasing participation in sport (Priest 2008) Findings: 0 studies met inclusion criteria, largely anecdotal What is the Evidence? Cochrane reviews
- 19. Evidence represents a narrow range of disabilities, interventions & relevant outcomes in studies of variable quality. Benefits of regular physical activity confirmed in general pop but less clear in disabled pop The effects of sport as a health intervention in the disabled have not been quantified in a meaningful way Conclusions
- 20. Underpowered Many disabilities under-represented Randomization infrequent or impractical Lack of valid disability outcome measurement tools impairment vs. disability relevance Results not stratified by age, health status, functional level, cause of disability, setting & exposure Poor reporting, no replication Limitations
- 21. Lacks clear & consistent definition of sport Lacks clear & consistent theoretical framework for eval disabled WHO International Classification of Impairments, Disabilities and Handicaps (ICIDH) 1980 WHO International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) 2001 What and why? Limitations
- 22. Public Health is paying attention to sport Population is aging Lifestyle and “Real world” outcomes are valued Policy makers want actionable findings Consider consequences of doing something + not doing something Personalized vs. one-size-fits-all Shifting from reactive to proactive Current Public Health Policy Trends
- 23. It’s difficult to prove cause and effect without good evidence Integrative methodologies Centralized data coordination Define sport as a health intervention Identify & use common theoretical framework Policy and Research Recommendations
- 24. Prioritize disability groups Innovative recruitment strategies targeted toward non-volunteers Factors affecting participation in sport Effects of assistive technologies Policy and Research Recommendations
