Thomas Wilson's HPE Week 3 ppt
This document discusses cultural influences on sport participation at three levels:
The cultural level examines how shared beliefs about issues like gender, race and socioeconomic status can influence access and equity in sport.
The interpersonal level investigates how relationships with family, peers, teachers and coaches affect an individual's participation. Family income, commitments and attitudes can impact an individual's sports choices and involvement.
Australia's sporting culture was heavily influenced by early British settlers who brought their popular games and beliefs about sport being a manly pursuit.
Judy fund sam letter
Marshall Gelfand established The Judy Fund in honor of his late wife who lost her battle with Alzheimer's disease. Sigma Alpha Mu later adopted The Judy Fund as its national charity of choice. In the 2012/13 academic year, Sammy chapters raised nearly $53,000 for The Judy Fund, an 80% increase from the previous year. Gelfand asks the brotherhood to join in supporting The Judy Fund this year by making a donation, as Alzheimer's currently has no cure and is expected to affect millions of baby boomers. Support from Sigma Alpha Mu and donations to The Judy Fund will help advance research toward more effective treatments and ultimately a cure for Alzheimer's disease.
Gay & lesbian
The document discusses several issues faced by the LGBTQ community including access to services, education, employment, health, housing, safety, self-esteem, and sense of identity. It notes that discrimination and lack of acceptance can make accessing services, forming friendships, feeling secure, and developing self-esteem more difficult for LGBTQ individuals. It also discusses how online communities and LGBTQ organizations provide support and help address the specific needs of this population.
Obesity
This document discusses childhood obesity statistics in the United States. It states that between 16-33% of children and adolescents are obese, and obesity is difficult to treat. Unhealthy weight gain due to poor diet and lack of exercise causes over 300,000 deaths per year. Childhood obesity rates have more than doubled for some age groups over the past 30 years. Around 9 million children over age 6 are considered obese. The obesity epidemic affects all ages, races, and ethnic groups in the US.
W2 is this what the doctor ordered - cc matthew ellis
Matthew Ellis discusses trends in modern society that impact public support for government intervention. A more polarized and diverse society with celebrity culture and instant gratification has led to a breakdown of traditional values. People are living longer but less healthy lives and are more anxious. Public opinion is divided on the role of government between those who want an enabling, nanny, or nudging state. The document considers whether the state should influence healthy behaviors or avoid interfering in personal choices.

The document discusses mass participation in sports in the UK. It aims to understand the groups targeted, factors influencing participation, and benefits of regular exercise. Mass participation aims for all to have sports opportunities regardless of attributes. Funding comes from private, voluntary, and public sources. Barriers to "Sport For All" include lack of opportunity, provision, and esteem for certain groups like the elderly, disabled, unemployed, and women. Combating problems requires addressing attitudes, time, money, accessibility, facilities, activities, transportation, and equipment. Esteem impacts participation, and a stratified society can reinforce views about groups like white males versus Asian females.

Amy, a friend of the assistant, asked for advice on improving the board of directors for the 501c3 nonprofit organization she joined called Save Our Kids. Save Our Kids is a 20-year-old community service organization that provides after-school programs, advocates for students, and helps non-English speaking parents. The nonprofit has a $750,000 budget, most from government grants, and faces budget cuts due to the economic crisis that also impacts the local schools. Amy explained there are disagreements about board member fundraising roles and attendance, and that the last meeting focused on staff complaints about the new executive director's cost-cutting decisions.

This document poses a series of questions about various visual images related to social groups and behaviors. It inquires about the demographics of people in different settings and activities, such as who frequents fast food restaurants, visits beaches, chooses to live in cities, rides rollercoasters, and attends public events for a presidential candidate. Many questions also probe the reasons and motivations behind people's choices and how societal factors may influence behaviors and opinions.
Social issues
The document discusses several social issues including drug abuse, sexual discrimination, teenage pregnancies, racism, and gay rights. It notes that drug abuse is increasing due to easy access and calls for more severe government measures. It describes how women still face discrimination in areas like wages but their independence is growing. Teenage pregnancies are problematic but declining due to better access to contraceptives. Racism stems from intolerances of different cultures living together, but future generations may be more understanding. Attitudes toward gay rights have liberalized as it is seen as a normal variation rather than a disease.
Ap 8.1
Street life negatively impacts African American teenage boys through influences like fast money, fashion, and cars. The document identifies three contributing factors: lack of community involvement in monitoring children, negative media influences promoting criminal behaviors, and lack of parental involvement, such as not communicating with children or being absent from their daily lives. Positive influences that could help include community safe havens like parks and churches, and parents staying actively involved in their children's daily activities through communication and discipline.

Sociology and Social Change
Social change occurs through complex interactions between various factors. Early sociological theories debated whether social change was determined by single or multiple causes. Patterns of human behavior are influenced by social norms and institutions, leading to potentially predictable social change. Sociological theories analyze the direction, rate, sources, and controllability of social change, seeking to understand social equilibrium and tension between changing and stable parts of society. Theories like accumulation of knowledge and diffusion of innovations explain social change through the development and spread of new ideas.
Chapter 21 social change
The document discusses social change at multiple levels. It defines social change as variations or modifications in social organization, groups, communities, institutions, or the roles and statuses of members.

The rate, form, direction, causes, and order of social change are described. Barriers and stimulants to change are also cultural, social, and psychological. The document also provides examples of social change in Philippine society through modernization.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
