This book was released on 2019-03-06 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most essential problems that is frequently overlooked is that of planning the daily program for each class. This should be done carefully. It is only the novice who needs to write out in detail the various aspects of the lesson to be taught, although capable, experienced teachers can usually profit by jotting down a few brief notes or key words as they think through the coming lesson Research is a careful, systematic and objective investigation conducted to obtain valid facts, draw conclusions and establish principles regarding an identifiable problem in some field of knowledge. The present book discusses all the aspects of methodology of research in the field of physical education and sports sciences. Hopefully, the present book will be useful for the students, teachers of physical education and sports, layperson, researchers, prospective coaches etc., in many ways.

Book Anthology of Statistics in Sports

Download or read book Anthology of Statistics in Sports written by Jim Albert and published by SIAM. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The unlikely worlds of sports fans and statisticians collide in this interesting and accessible collection of previously published articles on the use of statistics to analyze sports, which the editors have thoughtfully culled from a variety of American Statistical Association (ASA) publications. Heavily weighted in the areas of competition (rating players and teams, evaluating strategies for victory), the articles vary in mathematical complexity, but most will be accessible to readers with a general knowledge of statistics. Newly written material from the editors and other notable contributors introduces each section of the book, and a chapter with suggestions on using the articles in the classroom is included. Organized by sport to make it easy for readers to find the papers in their particular areas of interest, Anthology of Statistics in Sports contains separate sections devoted to the major North American team sports of baseball, football, basketball, and ice hockey. Two additional sections cover miscellaneous sports and more general issues related to sports and statistics. This book grew from the efforts of members of the ASA Section on Statistics in Sports, which is dedicated to promoting high professional standards in the application of statistics to sports and fostering statistical education in sports.

Book An Introduction to Intermediate and Advanced Statistical Analyses for Sport and Exercise Scientists

Download or read book An Introduction to Intermediate and Advanced Statistical Analyses for Sport and Exercise Scientists written by Nikos Ntoumanis and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-01-19 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Ntoumanis and Myers have done sport and exercise science researchers and students a tremendous service in producing An Introduction to Intermediate and Advanced Statistical Analyses for Sport and Exercise Scientists. This book has an outstanding compilation of comprehensible chapters dealing with the important concepts and technical minutia of the statistical analyses that sport and exercise science scholars use (or should be using!) in their efforts to conduct meaningful research in the field. It is a resource that all sport and exercise scientists and their students should have on their book shelves." —Robert Eklund, School of Sport, University of Stirling, UK "Motivating, to have a statistics text devoted to enabling researchers studying sport and exercise science to apply the most sophisticated analytical techniques to their data. Authors hit the mark between using technical language as necessary and user-friendly terms or translations to keep users encouraged. Text covers traditional and well-used tools but also less common and more complex tools, but always with familiar examples to make their explanations come alive. As a dynamic systems theorist and developmentalist, I would love to see more researchers in my area create study designs that would enable the use of tools outlined here, such as multilevel structural equation modeling (MSEM) or mediation & moderation analyses, to uncover cascades of relations among subsystems contributing to motor performance, over time. This text can facilitate that outcome." —Beverly D. Ulrich, School of Kinesiology, University of Michigan, USA "The domain of quantitative methods is constantly evolving and expanding. This means that there is tremendous pressure on researchers to stay current, both in terms of best practices and improvements in more traditional methods as well as increasingly complex new methods. With this volume Ntoumanis and Myers present a nice cross-section of both, helping sport and exercise science researchers to address old questions in better ways, and, even more excitingly, to address new questions entirely. I have no doubt that this volume will quickly become a lovingly dog-eared companion for students and researchers, helping them to continue to move the field forward." —Gregory R. Hancock, University of Maryland and Center for Integrated Latent Variable Research (CILVR), USA
