Paper describes study examining the relationship of actual motor competence and perceived motor competence with PA participation and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) among underserved Hispanic children who were born in the U.S.

This article investigates the impact of nutrient intake on hydration biomarkers in cyclists before and after a 161 km ride, including one hour after a 650 mL water bolus consumed post-ride. Most predictor groups showed significant association with at least one hydration biomarker: (1) Glycemic Load + Carbohydrates + Sodium, (2) Protein + Fat + Zinc, (3) Magnesium + Calcium, (4) Pinitol, (5) Caffeine, (6) Fiber + Betaine, and (7) Water; potassium + three polyols, and mannitol + sorbitol showed no significant associations with any hydration biomarker. The authors conclude that in a real-life scenario, some nutrients may serve as mediators of body water, and urine-specific hydration biomarkers may be more responsive to nutrient intake than measures derived from plasma or body mass.

The article highlights a study aimed (1) to examine the relations between different doses of physical activity (PA), light PA (LPA), moderate PA (MPA), and vigorous PA (VPA), academic self-efficacy, and depression among adolescents, and (2) to investigate the direct and indirect relations of various doses of PA to depression through academic self-efficacy among middle school adolescents. Findings of this study indicated that academic self-efficacy regulates adolescents’ depression. Tailoring different intensities of PA benefits adolescents’ academic self-efficacy by framing the positive and supportive environment in schools, which can potentially reduce the prevalence of depression during adolescence.

Article examining individual concerns to integrate virtual reality into science instruction before and after a hands-on intervention with virtual reality to improve understanding of preservice teacher acceptance and integration of virtual reality into science.

This article is a meta-analysis examining the association of birth order and divergent thinking (DT). The main purpose was to examine how ordinal position (only, first, middle, or last-born) is related to creativity. Results showed that first-borns had higher DT scores than later-born children.

This article addresses the in-state resident tuition (ISRT) debate for undocumented college students in Texas and analyzes the implicit and explicit messages communicated in the policy and surrounding policy discourse. It uses a conceptual framework grounded in three constructs of critical whiteness studies including ontological expansiveness, color evasiveness, and individualization.

This article includes a cross-sectional study examining the Automated Self-Administered 24-H (ASA24) Dietary Assessment Tool in persons with Multiple Sclerosis. This study establishes the feasibility and acceptability of ASA24 in persons with MS and provides a foundation regarding the need for further validation research examining appropriate outcomes for supporting dietary interventions

This article explores the theory and practice between two existing conceptual frameworks: 1) social learning theory and 2) teacher evaluation systems.

Article presents a study that demonstrates a pilot test consisting of a series of online courses designed to teach clinicians value-based care principles and practices with the goal of facilitating change to a value-based care model.

This article presents a study that examined the relationship between psychometric status, neuromuscular, and biochemical markers of fatigue in response to an intensified training (IT) period in soccer.

Data management plan for the grant "Feasibility and initial efficacy of a wheelchair exercise-training intervention for persons with multiple sclerosis." The proposed study will examine the feasibility and initial efficacy of a stakeholder-informed, home-based, remotely supported and supervised exercise training program for wheelchair users with multiple sclerosis (MS). The proposed exercise training program was iteratively developed in partnership with community members using semi-structured interviews, a community advisory board, and focus group feedback wherein community members provided insights to develop and refine an exercise training program that suit the needs and preferences of wheelchair users with MS. Ultimately, the proposed study extends this line of research and may initiate a significant paradigm shift in rehabilitation research and practice by providing a critically needed home-based exercise training program for enhancing health, quality of life, participation, and independence of wheelchair user with MS.
