Abstract

This study presents an analysis of the effect of the application of Technological Enhanced Learning (TEL) in physical fitness material on student learning motivation at Junior High School 3 Cileunyi. The research design used was a one-shot case study with a control group, involving 40 students who were divided into experimental and control groups. The instrument used was a questionnaire to measure students' learning motivation, including aspects of interest, involvement, and drive to learn. The results showed a significant increase in the learning motivation of students who participated in technology-based learning compared to the control group, who used conventional methods. Statistical analysis using the independent T-test indicated that the application of TEL can positively influence students' learning motivation. The findings support the theory that interactive learning experiences can increase student motivation, as well as making an important contribution to the development of pedagogy in physical education. This study recommends the use of technology as an innovative solution to improve student engagement and learning quality in physical fitness materials. Future research is recommended to expand the research sample to provide a clearer picture of the effectiveness of TEL.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the relationship between aerobic dance intensity and blood pressure reduction in active elderly women who routinely participate in community exercise programs. The research design used is correlational with a quantitative approach. The sample consists of members of the aerobic dance community in Taman Pakui Sayang (TPS), Makassar, comprising 20 elderly women aged 45–59 years who participate in aerobic dance at least twice a week for 8 weeks. Data were collected through blood pressure measurements before and after the intervention, as well as monitoring exercise intensity using the Borg RPE (Rating of Perceived Exertion) Scale. The results of the analysis showed a significant negative correlation between aerobic dance intensity and a decrease in systolic with r = -0.62; p = 0.001 and diastolic (r = -0.55; p = 0.004) blood pressure. These findings indicate that the higher the intensity of the exercise performed, the greater the decrease in blood pressure that occurs. Thus, moderate to high intensity aerobic dance can be an effective non-pharmacological strategy in the management of hypertension in elderly women.

Abstract

Depression is a serious mental disorder that significantly impacts an individual's quality of life. Physical activity is considered a non-pharmacological program with the potential to alleviate depressive symptoms through biological, psychological, and social mechanisms. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between physical activity levels and depression levels among patients undergoing psychosocial rehabilitation at Marzoeki Mahdi Mental Hospital, Bogor. This research employs a quantitative design with a descriptive-correlational approach. A total of 26 patients diagnosed with major depressive disorder who actively participated in physical activity programs were purposively selected. The instruments used included the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HRSD) and the Q-MOVE (Questionnaire of 24-Hour Movement Behaviors). The analysis results indicated no significant relationship between sleep duration or physical activity levels (sedentary, moderate, vigorous) and depression levels. However, a significant positive correlation was found between moderate and vigorous physical activity. This study concludes that although no direct relationship was found between physical activity and depression, an active behavior pattern still has the potential to support recovery. Further studies with a longitudinal design and larger sample sizes are needed to explore a more accurate causal relationship.

Abstract

Sponsorship is an important part of global brands looking to increase participation and acceptance, especially through international sporting events such as the Tour de Borobudur 2023. This study aims to adds to the limited literature on sponsorship perspectives and offers practical implications for sports marketers, event organisers, and brand strategists looking to build meaningful and sustainable sponsorship partnerships, while addressing a gap in existing literature that has largely overlooked sponsor perspectives This study employed a descriptive quantitative research focused on the sponsors' perceptions of event-brand congruence, brand sincerity and brand exposure. Data was collected through a structured questionnaire administered to sponsoring organisations and analysed using descriptive statistics. The findings reveal that sponsors perceive a strong event-brand congruence, both in function and image, which enhances credibility and facilitates brand recall. Sincerity and brand authenticity are viewed as essential attributes that foster trust and shape stakeholders’ positive attitudes. Sponsors also place strong emphasis on sincerity, viewing authenticity and value alignment as essential for building trust and fostering emotional connections with audiences. Although brand exposure was perceived as moderate, sponsors expressed intentions to leverage future sponsorships to enhance visibility and reach. The results of this study showed a strong perception of functional and image congruence, indicating that consistency between sponsor and event can increase strategic value. Additionally, sponsors value honesty, seeking cooperation that reflects their brand's genuine values and helps build an emotional connection with the audience. Although current brand exposure levels were considered moderate, sponsors clearly intend to leverage future sponsorships to increase exposure, reflecting the principle of brand ubiquity.

Abstract

Forward Head Posture (FHP) is a prevalent musculoskeletal disorder, especially among university students engaged in prolonged sedentary activities. Weakness in scapular stabilizing muscles such as the serratus anterior and rhomboids contributes significantly to postural misalignment and associated pain. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of progressive strengthening exercises targeting the serratus anterior and rhomboid muscles in improving craniovertebral angle, reducing neck pain, and enhancing functional outcomes in final-year university students with FHP. A quasi-experimental pre-test and post-test design was employed involving 67 final-year students. Participants were divided into an intervention group (n=33) and a control group (n=34). The intervention group underwent a progressive strengthening program 3 sessions per week over 4 weeks, while the control group received no physiotherapy. Outcome measures included craniovertebral angle (CVA), Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) for pain, and the Neck Disability Index (NDI). The intervention group demonstrated a significant improvement in CVA increased from 42.1° ± 2.5° to 49.3° ± 2.8° (p < 0.001), compared to a non-significant change in the control group 42.5° ± 2.3° to 43.1° ± 2.6° (p < 0.001). NRS decreased from 5.6 ± 1.2 to 2.1 ± 0.9 (p = 0.000), and NDI scores dropped from 32.4 ± 4.7 to 15.3 ± 3.9 (p = 0.000). The control group showed no significant changes in any measure. Progressive strengthening of the serratus anterior and rhomboid muscles is effective in correcting forward head posture, alleviating pain, and improving cervical function. These findings support the integration of targeted postural exercises into student wellness and physiotherapy programs.

Abstract

This study aimed to examine the influence of physical activity on quality of life and anxiety among university students involved in sports communities. The researcher also highlights the potential role of social support particularly from close individuals in enhancing student-athletes motivation. The subjects of this study were 65 students who participated in sports communities, selected using probability sampling through proportionate stratified random sampling. A quantitative research approach was employed, utilizing the third type of causal-comparative research, namely consequence exploration. The hypothesis was tested using bootstrapped regression analysis through SPSS version 27. The results showed that physical activity did not have a significant effect on any of the four dimensions of students’ quality of life: physical (p = 0.243), psychological (p = 0.155), social (p = 0.352), and environmental (p = 0.137). Additionally, physical activity did not show a significant effect on anxiety levels (p = 0.137). Since all significance values were greater than 0.05, the findings indicate that physical activity does not have a statistically significant influence on quality of life or anxiety among university students.
