Abstract

Basketball is a popular sport that provides numerous health benefits, but it also carries a high risk of injuries, particularly to the lower extremities. This study aimed to analyze the plantar pressure distribution in basketball players to identify potential risk factors for lower extremity injuries. A descriptive analytical study with a feasibility study design was conducted on 5 amateur basketball players aged 14-18 years. Plantar pressure was measured using the Zebris static stance platform, and postural assessments were performed using a scoliometer and goniometer. The results showed that basketball players tend to have a higher plantar pressure on the heel region, indicating a tendency to shift their body weight backward during standing. Additionally, the study revealed some variability in spinal and knee posture angles, suggesting the potential for muscle imbalances. These findings highlight the importance of implementing comprehensive training programs focused on strengthening the lower limb muscles, improving proprioception and balance, and enhancing core stability to prevent injuries and optimize athletic performance. The study provides valuable insights for coaches and healthcare professionals working with basketball players.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is a backswing angle that has the greatest impact on shot distance and whether it influences long shot distance in woodball. Woodball players from Jakarta State University who trained for two to three years participated in this study. Examine the connection between the dependent variable (long stroke distance) and the independent variable (backswing angle). This study will employ an experimental research design and associative quantitative research methods. After using Kinovea software to assess the backswing angle and stroke distance, SPSS 25.0 software was used for processing. The study's findings indicate that the backswing angle affects long shot distance, as indicated by the Wilcoxon Ranked Test's non-parametric statistical test results (p < 0.05) and Z value of -4.016. This indicates that the influence is substantial. However, the second stroke, which has a distance of 39.99 meters and an angle of 118◦, has a Z value of -2.384 and a significant value of p-value = 0.017 < 0.05. This indicates that there is an effective backswing angle to affect the shot's distance. Thus, this study demonstrates the existence of an angle. This study aids in the development of fundamental woodball skills, particularly in enhancing players' long-shot prowess. These results can serve as the foundation for developing a structured training regimen that emphasizes biomechanical elements that can increase punching efficacy and accuracy. Athletes can use this information to increase their performance and backswing angle, which will make their stroke more efficient and effective. With training planning, trainers can use this data as a reference to help athletes improve their long strokes.

Abstract

Internationalization has grown from an insignificant challenge to a crucial priority in recent decades, becoming a vital part of global higher education systems. The key objevtive of this study was to investigate the relationship between physical activity and life satisfaction among international students attending Indonesian institutions in Java. Importance to promoting their overall well being and adaptation in a foreign academic evironmentThis study included 220 foreign students (121 (55%) male, aged 18 to 52, mean age 26.7 and SD = 5.9 years old) from various countries who were studying at several institutions in Java, Indonesia. Physical activity data were collected using IPAQ(International Physical Activity Questionnaire), and life satisfaction was measured using the Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS). The non probability convenience sampling method used to collect the data and pearson statistical used to analysis the correlation between life satisfaction and physical activity. The findings showed that life satisfaction and physical activity were strongly positively correlated, with a Pearson correlation coefficient (r) of 0.806, the coefficient of determination (R2) was 0.63, indicating that variations in physical activity levels account for 63% of the variance in life satisfaction. A p-value of 0.002, well below the conventional threshold of 0.05, validated the statistical significance of this association. Regular physical exercise was associated with better levels of life satisfaction among international students. These results emphasise how important it is to include physical exercise in daily routines in order to increase foreign students' life satisfaction. To further understand the basic processes and show how physical activity and life satisfaction are related in this student population, more study is required.

Abstract

Motivasi berprestasi pada atlet sangat penting untuk mencapai prestasi yang diinginkan. Namun, faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi motivasi berprestasi seperti self efficacy dan dukungan sosial, perlu dianalisis secara mendalam untuk memahami perannya. Literature review ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis peran dukungan sosial dalam memoderasi hubungan antara self efficacy dan motivasi berprestasi pada atlet. Kajian ini menggunakan metode systematic literature review dengan cara mengakses artikel melalui Mendeley, lalu dilakukan screening menggunakan Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA), dalam rentang publikasi tahun 2019-2024. Dari hasil literature review ditemukan bahwa self efficacy berperan penting dalam meningkatkan motivasi berprestasi pada atlet, dengan kontribusi yang signifikan, berkisar antara 43,4% hingga 75,7%. Sedangkan, dukungan sosial terutama dari orang tua, terbukti memiliki dampak besar terhadap motivasi berprestasi, baik secara langsung maupun melalui peran mediasi. Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa dukungan sosial sebagai faktor eksternal memainkan peran penting dalam memperkuat self efficacy atlet, yang pada akhirnya meningkatkan motivasi mereka untuk mencapai prestasi yang lebih baik.

Abstract

  Stunting in disadvantaged, frontier and outermost (3T) areas remains a serious challenge due to limited monitoring of the satisfaction of beneficiaries of multidimensional prevention programs. This study aims to develop a PRO-STUNT 3T model with a multidimensional model (socio-economic, cultural, educational, and health aspects to optimize stunting prevention policies. The specific objectives are to assess the level of beneficiary satisfaction and analyze the factors that influence it in Konawe Regency, Southeast Sulawesi. The research method used a mixed-method approach with a sample of 100 respondents selected through stratified consecutive random sampling from five health centers, the quantitative results were then studied in more depth to enrich the qualitative context. The results showed that 99% of beneficiaries were satisfied with the program, but 8–14% highlighted the limitations of physical facilities (tangibles) and empathy of officers, as well as the dominance of participation by mothers with junior high school education (78%) which has the potential to hinder nutritional literacy. Other findings revealed the program's focus on First 1,000 Days of Life (36% of children aged 0–12 months) but ignored the age group >60 months (4%) who are vulnerable to long-term impacts. Longitudinal studies are needed to evaluate the relationship between community satisfaction and reduced stunting prevalence in the 3T area.
