Idrottsrörelsen.PedagogyPedagogik<p>Syftet med studien är att belysa fenomenet inkilning, eller nollning inom idrottsrörelsen. Centrala frågeställningar är: vad kännetecknar en inkilning? Vilka former kan den anta? Vilka funktioner kan den tänkas fylla? Hur kan man förstå att inkilning förekommer inom idrottsrörelsen? Metoden är semistrukturerade intervjuer där 17 män och kvinnor från olika idrotter berättar om sina erfarenheter och sin syn på inkilningsföreteelsen. Studien har en sociokulturell ansats. Teoretikern Pierre Bourdieus begrepp utgör analysverktyg. Resultaten visar att inkilning kan ta sig olika former och uttryck. Dess karaktär och betydelse är mångfacetterad; parallellt med en välkomnande funktion och byggande av laganda finns risken för kränkning och utsatthet.</p>Forskningsgruppen för pedagogik, idrott och fritidskulturStockholm : Riksidrottsförbundet2005texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-368ISBN 91-975766-8-9svoai:DiVA.org:gih-3722015-12-22T10:40:00ZgihmonographDoctoralThesisscienceLedarna och barnidrotten : Idrottsledarnas syn på idrott, barn och fostranKarin Redeliuschild and youth sportssports leaderscoachupbringingBourdieuhabitussymbolic capitalgenderPedagogyPedagogik<p>An important premise for the study is the pedagogic importance of sports, that children and youth via sports and its leaders consciously and unconsciously incorporate and teach themselves skills, habits and knowledge as well as norms and values. Another premise is that sports leaders, like other teachers and leaders, work in a time where new conditions prevail for children’s upbringing and for the role as a leader. What should be conveyed to children today is not obvious but seems to be dependent on the individual fosterer’s idea on what the role should mean. This is truer for sports leaders, for example, than teachers since the sports movement does not have a prescribed curriculum.</p>
<p>The perspective of the study is cultural-sociological and gender-theoretical. In the analyses, Pierre Bourdieu’s key concepts, habitus, capital and field, performed the functions of research tools. A descriptive purpose of the study was to increase the knowledge of who the children and youth leaders of the sports movement are and their views of and valuation of sports, the task and the children. Through studying what the sports leaders are bearers of in terms of personified and symbolic capital, the purpose of the study was also to analyse what was encouraged in the sports environment where many children and young people spend a great deal of their leisure.</p>
<p>The analyses were based on an empirical material consisting of questionnaire replies from 525 sport leaders and in-depth interviews with 18 leaders. In addition, more than 1,600 future teachers and youth recreation leaders replied to a questionnaire form. Who the sport movement’s child and youth leaders are cannot be generally answered. It is partly dependent on which sport it is, partly which gender the leader has. The sport leaders’ attitudes to differing aspects of the children’s sports activity varied and various leader groups confronted each other. The leaders primarily appreciated the relations with the children. However, they did not appreciate the parental intervention, children and youths who did not behave themselves and the high demands which leadership signifies. Through sports the leaders primarily wanted to give the children physical and social upbringing. They wanted to educate children to be creative and independent individuals but emphasized at the same time a conscientious ideal.</p>
<p>The study showed that differing types of symbolic capital dominate in children and youth’s sports activity and that different leader groups emphasize various values. What is understood as valuable seemed more to be related to the logic of different sports than to gender and the fact that the activities were for children. It is not possible to tell in general how children are fostered and influenced through sports. The results indicate, however, that seriousness dominated over playfulness and that success and achievement are highly valued.</p>Forskningsgruppen för pedagogik, idrott och fritidskulturStockholms universitets förlag2002Electronic Thesis or Dissertationtexthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-372ISBN 91-7656-524-6svDegree of Doctor of PhilosophydoctoralSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Forskningsgruppen för pedagogik, idrott och fritidskulturoai:DiVA.org:gih-3742015-12-22T13:51:00ZgiharticlepopularKön-Idrott-SkolaHåkan LarssonBirgitta FagrellKarin RedeliusPedagogyPedagogikForskningsgruppen för pedagogik, idrott och fritidskultur2005texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-374svoai:DiVA.org:gih-3102015-03-11T10:26:00ZgiharticlepopularCyklisterna får hjulen att snurraPeter Schantzarbetspendlingcyklinghälsoekonomikostnads-nyttoanalysSocial WorkSocialt arbeteThe Research Unit for Movement, Health and Environment2007texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-310svoai:DiVA.org:gih-2552011-05-12T09:43:00ZgihreportscienceSammanställning & utvärdering av fystester på juniorlandslagen år 1991-2001Mårten FredrikssonIshockeytesterlandslagjuniorerkapacitetsanalystränarlänkishockeySport and Fitness SciencesIdrottsvetenskapThe Laboratory of Applied Sports Science (LTIV)Svenska Ishockeyförbundet2002texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-255svoai:DiVA.org:gih-3112015-03-11T10:26:00ZgiharticlepopularFörmåga tåla smärta del av undretPeter SchantzlöpningmiljöKenyakalenjinerVMSocial WorkSocialt arbeteThe Research Unit for Movement, Health and Environment2007texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-311svoai:DiVA.org:gih-49162017-09-15T11:54:00ZgiharticlerefereedPost Activation Potentiation of the Plantarflexors: Implications of Knee Angle VariationsPaulo GagoToni ArndtMaria EkblomSport and Fitness SciencesIdrottsvetenskap<p>Flexing the knee to isolate the single joint soleus from the biarticular gastrocnemius is a strategy forinvestigating individual plantarflexor's post activation potentiation (PAP). We investigated the implications of testingplantarflexor PAP at different knee angles and provided indirect quantification of the contribution of gastrocnemiuspotentiation to the overall plantarflexor enhancements post conditioning. Plantarflexor supramaximal twitches weremeasured in ten male power athletes before and after a maximal isometric plantarflexion (MVIC) at both flexed andextended knee angles. Mean torque and soleus (SOLRMS) and medial gastrocnemius (MGRMS) activity were measuredduring the MVIC. The mean torque and MGRMS of the MVIC were lower (by 33.9 and 42.4%, respectively) in the flexedcompared to the extended position, with no significant difference in SOLRMS. After the MVIC, twitch peak torque (PT)and the rate of torque development (RTR) potentiated significantly more (by 17.4 and 14.7% respectively) in theextended as compared to the flexed knee position, but only immediately (5 s) after the MVIC. No significant differenceswere found in the twitch rate of torque development (RTD) potentiation between positions. It was concluded that kneejoint configuration should be taken into consideration when comparing studies of plantarflexor PAP. Furthermore,results reflect a rather brief contribution of the gastrocnemius potentiation to the overall plantarflexor twitchenhancements.</p>Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Department of Sport and Health SciencesSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Laboratory for Biomechanics and Motor ControlResearch Center for Sport, Health and Human Development, (CIDESD), PortugalDepartment of CLINTEC, Karolinska Institutet, StockholmDepartment of Neuroscience, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm2017texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-4916doi:10.1515/hukin-2017-0044ISI:000404979100004enoai:DiVA.org:gih-1972017-09-19T12:35:00ZgiharticlerefereedCycling efficiency in humans is related to low UCP3 content and to type I fibres but not to mitochondrial efficiencyMartin MogensenMalene BaggerPreben PedersenMaria FernstromKent SahlinDentistryOdontologi<p>The purpose of this study was to investigate the hypothesis that cycling efficiency in vivo is related to mitochondrial efficiency measured in vitro and to investigate the effect of training status on these parameters. Nine endurance trained and nine untrained male subjects ( , respectively) completed an incremental submaximal efficiency test for determination of cycling efficiency (gross efficiency, work efficiency (WE) and delta efficiency). Muscle biopsies were taken from m. vastus lateralis and analysed for mitochondrial respiration, mitochondrial efficiency (MEff; i.e. P/O ratio), UCP3 protein content and fibre type composition (% MHC I). MEff was determined in isolated mitochondria during maximal (state 3) and submaximal (constant rate of ADP infusion) rates of respiration with pyruvate. The rates of mitochondrial respiration and oxidative phosphorylation per muscle mass were about 40% higher in trained subjects but were not different when expressed per unit citrate synthase (CS) activity (a marker of mitochondrial density). Training status had no influence on WE (trained 28.0 +/- 0.5, untrained 27.7 +/- 0.8%, N.S.). Muscle UCP3 was 52% higher in untrained subjects, when expressed per muscle mass (P < 0.05 versus trained). WE was inversely correlated to UCP3 (r=-0.57, P < 0.05) and positively correlated to percentage MHC I (r= 0.58, P < 0.05). MEff was lower (P < 0.05) at submaximal respiration rates (2.39 +/- 0.01 at 50% ) than at state 3 (2.48 +/- 0.01) but was neither influenced by training status nor correlated to cycling efficiency. In conclusion cycling efficiency was not influenced by training status and not correlated to MEff, but was related to type I fibres and inversely related to UCP3. The inverse correlation between WE and UCP3 indicates that extrinsic factors may influence UCP3 activity and thus MEff in vivo.</p><p>The definitive version is available at www.blackwell-synergy.com</p>Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Department of Sport and Health Sciences2006texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-197enoai:DiVA.org:gih-2542011-05-12T09:44:00ZgihreportscienceDamkronornas Fysprofilstester 1995-2006 + 2007-2010 : Sammanställning, Reflektion & RekommendationMårten FredrikssonIshockeytesterfysprofilenlandslagdamhockeyherrhockeytränarlänkishockeySport and Fitness SciencesIdrottsvetenskapThe Laboratory of Applied Sports Science (LTIV)Sveriges Olympiska Kommitté2007texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-254svoai:DiVA.org:gih-4212015-03-11T10:27:00ZgiharticlerefereedPhysiological characteristics of classical balletPeter SchantzPer-Olof Åstranddanceclassical balletmaximal oxygen uptakelactate productionperformancephysical trainingheart rateDentistryOdontologiDepartment of Sport and Health Sciences1984texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-421enoai:DiVA.org:gih-1722016-06-02T11:54:00ZgihchapterscienceIdrotten och miljönPeter Schantzidrottfysisk aktivitetmiljöhälsahållbar utvecklingSocial WorkSocialt arbeteSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Department of Sport and Health SciencesStockholm : SISU Idrottsböcker2004texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-172ISBN 91-88941-63-9svoai:DiVA.org:gih-3832015-03-11T10:26:00ZgihcomprehensiveDoctoralThesissciencePlasticity of human skeletal muscle : with special reference to effects of physical training on enzyme levels of the NADH shuttles and phenotypic expression of slow and fast myofibrillar proteinsPeter SchantzDentistryOdontologiDepartment of Sport and Health SciencesKarolinska Institutet1986Electronic Thesis or Dissertationtexthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-383ISBN 91-7900-125-4endoctoralSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Department of Sport and Health Sciencesoai:DiVA.org:gih-3762015-03-11T10:26:00ZgihchapterscienceFragment ur den idé- och vetenskapshistoriska bakgrundenPeter SchantzarbetsfysiologiSverigeDanmarkGymnastiska CentralinstitutetGymnastik- och idrottshögskolanhistoriaHistory of IdeasIdé- och lärdomshistoriaDepartment of Sport and Health SciencesFarsta : Idrottens forskningsråd1988texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-376ISBN 91-87154-03-Xsvoai:DiVA.org:gih-50732017-11-20T13:20:00ZgiharticlerefereedPhysical Examination and Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Stress-Related Bone Injuries in Tuber IschiadicumClaes-Göran SundellLars ÅdinKarin LarsénTuber ischiadicumstress reactionstress fracturePhysical ExaminationSport and Fitness SciencesIdrottsvetenskap<p>Introduction: Stress-Related Bone Injuries (SRBI) in the Tuber Ischiadicum (TI) is a possible preliminary diagnosis in adolescent athletes with pain in the pelvic region or in the back of the thigh. The condition requires an early diagnosis in order to heal properly. We describe five cases of young athletes seeking a physiotherapist for pelvic or back thigh pain.</p><p>Materials and methods: Five patients previously diagnosed with lower back pain, groin pain, pelvic or back thigh pain underwent a Physical Examination (PE) by a physiotherapist to identify the pathogenesis of the pain. The PE led to the preliminary diagnosis of SRBI in the TI, which was confirmed by an MRI. The patients were treated with rest and Personally Guided Rehabilitation (PGR).</p><p>Results : All cases had a positive eccentric hip extension test and pain provocation on palpation on the TI. MRI found different levels of stress reactions/fractures in the enthesis of the TI. After rest and rehabilitation, all subjects returned to their previous level of physical activity.</p><p>Conclusion: PE appeared to identify adolescent athlete patients with SRBI in the TI requiring an MRI. The correct diagnosis led to a quick return to the previous level of physical activity.</p><p>Clinical relevance: An early and correct diagnosis thru a thorough PE can lead to complete healing and a return to sports.</p>Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIHUmeå universityPiteå hospital2017texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-5073enoai:DiVA.org:gih-50562017-10-27T14:38:00ZgiharticlepopularEtt tal vid Lingbalen 2017Peter SchantzPer Henrik LingAlfred NobelAlarik LiedbeckPer Jacob LiedbeckPer-Olof ÅstrandAnders OttossonRolf WibomVintervikenmitokondrierträningStudentkåren vid Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolanHumanities and the ArtsHumaniora och konst<p>Lingbalen är en gammal tradition på Kungl.

The main focus concerns family influences on the development of the investigated youngsters´ sportive patterns. Data were collected through online and paper (whenever appropriate) questionnaires (elite sport training in secondary higher education – models of success in sport with pupils from a selection of sport schools in respective countries). Coaches from sports schools representing all participating countries (Poland, Sweden, Latvia, Russia and Belarus) were interviewed. The results indicate that the influence of parents and physical education teachers on the decision to join a sport club and to continue sport career is rather low. Main reasons behind joining a sport club are: the desire to become an athlete, sport idols, and the subjects’ own will. Staying in a sport club and pursuing a career is also determined by previous achievements in the field and good coaches. The parents´ past engagement in psychical activities was not systematic. The subjects consider local sport facilities and a number of accessible sport clubs and sports coaches to be of high importance at the early stage of their engagement in sport.</p>Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Department of Sport and Health SciencesRiga : Latvian Academy of Sport Education2016texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-4766doi:10.1515/ljss-2016-0012enoai:DiVA.org:gih-48932017-11-29T12:23:00ZgihbookReviewscienceWhere are the kids?

BolamS MijwelC J SundbergM BackmanM BrowallJ NorrbomH RundqvistCancer and OncologyCancer och onkologiSport and Fitness SciencesIdrottsvetenskap<p><strong>BACKGROUND:</strong> Women with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy suffer from a range of detrimental disease and treatment related side-effects. Exercise has shown to be able to counter some of these side-effects and improve physical function as well as quality of life. The primary aim of the study is to investigate and compare the effects of two different exercise regimens on the primary outcome cancer-related fatigue and the secondary outcomes muscle strength, function and structure, cardiovascular fitness, systemic inflammation, skeletal muscle gene activity, health related quality of life, pain, disease and treatment-related symptoms in women with breast cancer receiving chemotherapy. The second aim is to examine if any effects are sustained 1, 2, and 5 years following the completion of the intervention and to monitor return to work, recurrence and survival. The third aim of the study is to examine the effect of attendance and adherence rates on the effects of the exercise programme.</p><p><strong>METHODS:</strong> This study is a randomised controlled trial including 240 women with breast cancer receiving chemotherapy in Stockholm, Sweden. The participants are randomly allocated to either: group 1: Aerobic training, group 2: Combined resistance and aerobic training, or group 3: usual care (control group). During the 5-year follow-up period, participants in the exercise groups will receive a physical activity prescription. Measurements for endpoints will take place at baseline, after 16 weeks (end of intervention) as well as after 1, 2 and 5 years.</p><p><strong>DISCUSSION:</strong> This randomised controlled trial will generate substantial information regarding the effects of different types of exercise on the health of patients with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy. We expect that dissemination of the knowledge gained from this study will contribute to developing effective long term strategies to improve the physical and psychosocial health of breast cancer survivors.</p><p><strong>TRIAL REGISTRATION:</strong> OptiTrain - Optimal Training Women with Breast Cancer (OptiTrain), NCT02522260 ; Registration: June 9, 2015, Last updated version Feb 29, 2016.

A novel autobiographical approach was adopted whereby the participant undertook expressive writing to describe her experiences before, during, and following coaching an athlete at the 2012 Summer Olympic Games. Thematic analysis indicated seven phases related to the participant's experiences of the critical incident: Build up to the event, the event, the aftermath, recovery and reflection on the event, sampling of new avenues, enlightenment, and career rebirth. The findings reinforce the high demands placed upon elite coaches, the subsequent threats to physical and mental well-being, and the importance of having robust psychological skills and suitable social support to cope with these demands.

Physical exercise as a means of rehabilitation for patients with cancer is an emerging area of research and treatment, emphasizing the need for accurate and feasible physical capacity measurements. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the validity of peak oxygen consumption (o2peak) predicted by the Ekblom-Bak test (E-B) and the Åstrand-Rhyming prediction model (A-R).</p><p><strong>METHODS:</strong> Eight patients with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy participated in the study. Submaximal exercise tests were performed at 2 different submaximal workloads. Estimated o2peak values were obtained by inserting the heart rate (HR) from the 2 workloads into the E-B prediction model and the HR of only the higher workload into the Åstrand nomogram.

However, bone anchored markers require local anesthesia and may alter the motor control and motor output during gait. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of local anesthesia and the use of bone anchored markers on typical gait analysis variables. Five subjects were analyzed in two different gait analysis sessions. In the first session, a protocol with skin markers was used. In the second session, bone anchored markers were added after local anesthesia was applied. For both sessions, three dimensional infrared kinematics of the calcaneus and tibia segments, ground reaction forces, and plantar pressure data were collected. 95% confidence intervals and boxplots were used to compare protocols and assess the data distribution and data variability for each subject. Although considerable variation was found between subjects, within-subject comparison of the two protocols revealed non-systematic effects on the target variables. Two of the five subjects walked at reduced gait speed during the bone pin session, which explained the between-session differences found in kinetic and kinematic variables. The remaining three subjects did not systematically alter their gait pattern between the two sessions. Results support the hypothesis that local anesthesia and the presence of bone pins still allow a valid gait pattern to be analyzed.</p>Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Laboratory for Biomechanics and Motor Control2017texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-4637doi:10.1016/j.gaitpost.2016.10.023PMID: 27898374ISI:000398007900023enoai:DiVA.org:gih-44582017-11-28T15:23:00ZgiharticlepopularSkolans kroppsövningar i obalans : tillför en konstnärlig dimensionPeter SchantzJohnny NilssongymnastikidrottlekfriluftslivdansmotionkonditionsträningstyrketräningrörlighetsträningskolanSocial SciencesSamhällsvetenskap<p>År 1989 inledde artikelförfattarna en målsättningsdiskussion med lärarkollegerna på Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan i Stockholm (GIH).

Most of the current body of research in this area focuses on coaches’ sexual harassment and abuse of children and female athletes. In the present article, we discuss legal coach–athlete sexual relationships and adopt a coach perspective. As dual relationships, coach–athlete sexual relationships blur the boundaries between professional roles circumscribed (usually) by ethical codes of conduct and private spheres of love and desire. We explore the problems associated with the limitations of dichotomous right/wrong ethical decision making and discuss additional ways to understand these relationships, accounting for coaches’ and athletes’ well-being, performance, gendered sexual agency, power, ethical dilemmas, sport policy, and legal implications. Our discussion raises questions about how to open up dialogue and transparency regarding coach–athlete sexual relationships and how to facilitate functional, healthy coach–athlete relationships. Finally, we provide implications for future research that include legal and consensual coach–athlete sexual relationships and advocate transparency, open discussion, and coach education about coach–athlete sexual relationship dilemmas.</p>Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Department of Sport and Health SciencesHalmstad universitetStockholm2016texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-4461doi:10.1177/1747954116654777ISI:000382437000014enoai:DiVA.org:gih-44592017-11-28T15:22:00ZgiharticlerefereedA Comparison of Bone Mineral Density in Amateur Male Boxers and Active Non-boxers.Kate A.

A cross-sectional study was performed with 30 amateur male boxers (aged 18-44 years) and 32 age-matched, non-boxing, active controls. Participants had their regional and whole body BMD and bone mineral content (BMC) assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Hand grip strength, testosterone, oestradiol, sex hormone-binding globulin, vitamin D, lean and fat mass, and past and current physical activity were also assessed. Forearm and arm BMD were 1.5-2.2% higher in boxers than the control group although this was not statistically significant (p>0.05), with no significant difference for BMC (p>0.05). There were no differences between groups for spine, hip, or whole body BMD or BMC, or for body composition or hormone status. Within the arms, lean mass was associated with BMD and BMC in both boxers and the control group (BMD, r=0.60-0.76, p<0.001; BMC, r=0.67-0.82, p<0.001). There were no significant differences between amateur boxers and the control group for upper limb BMD and BMC.

The equality is described by for example the proportion of women working outside the home and their economical distribution. The Swedish parliament has also one of the world’s highest representation numbers of women parliament members. To be able to understand this development of equality, factors like a long period with a social democracy government and a strong popular movement are often put forward as explanations for the Swedish gender policy development. But an unproven hypothesis is also that the early education of both men and women in bodily exercise and physical activity played a role in this development. The purpose of this chapter is to pay attention to three Swedish women who, through their engagement in physical culture and sports in different time periods, made difference to the lives for girls and women. The first pioneer, Martina Bergman Österberg, established a female Physical Education Teaching Training Program (PETE), the second, Ann Elefalk, broke the way for female coaches in a male dominated sport and the third Cecilia Dahlgren brought dance into compulsory schools in Sweden. The three portraits differ, but together they illustrate how education, passion and strategies can move mountains.</p><p>Was presented at the ICSEMIS Congress September 2016: http://www.icsemis2016.org/</p>Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Forskningsgruppen för pedagogik, idrott och fritidskulturSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Forskningsgruppen för pedagogisk idrottsforskningMalmö högskolaJuiz de Fora : NGIME/UFJF2016texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-4438enoai:DiVA.org:gih-44292017-11-27T13:28:00ZgihconferencePaperscienceThe moving and resting human being : A philosophical approach to exercisePeter SchantzMedical and Health SciencesMedicin och hälsovetenskapSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, The Research Unit for Movement, Health and Environment2016texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-4429enoai:DiVA.org:gih-45402016-08-26T14:01:00Zgiharticlescience”Att kunna främja hälsa” – Vad kan det innebära, i idrott och hälsas rörelsepraktik?Sabina VesterlundEducational SciencesUtbildningsvetenskapSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Forskningsgruppen för pedagogisk idrottsforskningSVEBI2016texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-4540svoai:DiVA.org:gih-45192016-08-17T11:50:00ZgiharticlerefereedImportance of static adjustment of knee angle to determine saddle height in cyclingJose Ignacio Priego QuesadaTiago Canal JacquesRodrigo R. BiniFelipe P. CarpesJoint Range of MotionKinematicsBike fittingCycling postureSport and Fitness SciencesIdrottsvetenskap<p>Knee flexion angle is used to determine saddle height during pedaling. However, it is unclear how knee flexion angle at upright standing posture affects measures and interpretation of knee flexion angle during cycling. The objective of this study was to highlight the importance of adjusting knee angle during pedaling according to the knee angle at upright posture. Seventeen cyclists performed three 10 min cycling trials at different saddle heights to induce knee flexion angles (40º, 30º or 20º when crank was at the 6 o’clock position). Knee flexion angle was determined at the sagittal plane during cycling using a 2D motion analysis system. Alteration of saddle height was performed by subtracting the knee flexion determined during an upright standing posture from the observed knee flexion during cycling. Repeatability of knee angles at upright posture in the three trials was very good (ICC=0.73). A reduction in knee flexion angle of 10.6° (95%CI [8.6, 12.6º]) during cycling was found using the adjustment for upright standing posture (p<0.01; effect size>3.0). As a result, saddle height is affected by adjustments based on knee angle measured in upright standing posture. Determining saddle height without adjusting knee angle for upright standing posture could lead to errors with possible effects on performance and/or injury risk.</p>Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Laboratory for Biomechanics and Motor ControlUniversity of Valencia, SpainSchool of Physical Education of the Army, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

The healthcare has a unique role in health promotion as they reach a large part of the population. The evidence based recommendation is that the healthcare sector should offer “counseling with the adjunct of exercise on prescription or a pedometer, as well as special follow-up” to promote patients physical activity. Despite this, physical activity is underutilized in prevention and treatment of disease, for reasons not fully known.</p><p> </p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong>Purpose/Method</strong></p><p>We aimed to study the attitudes of different healthcare professionals in the hospital setting, towards the importance of physical activity and its clinical use at different levels.</p><p>The study comprised 264 (78% women) health care professionals at the cardiac department/outpatient cardiac center in Stockholm (response rate 91%).

Forty-seven percent reported that they promoted physical activity in clinical practice, however only a minority fulfilled the evidence based recommendations (n=65), as brief advice (n=165) or counseling (n=111) were most common. Sixty-one percent aimed to improve the use of physical activity promotion, factors hampering were inadequate knowledge, follow-up possibilities and length of patient visits.

To improve the promotion of physical activity in patients there is need for further implementation strategies at all levels to create a well-functioning structure, clear goals and routines. Our study suggests, that implementation should focus at education, logistics for follow-up and increased amount of time with direct patient care. </p><p> </p>Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Björn Ekblom's and Mats Börjesson's research group2015texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-4130enoai:DiVA.org:gih-39272015-12-22T10:40:00ZgihreportscienceIdrottsledarna och barnkonventionen : Om idrottande barns rättigheterKarin RedeliusSocial SciencesSamhällsvetenskap<p>Den här rapporten handlar om barns rättigheter i idrott, närmare bestämt om idrottsledares syn på barns rättigheter.

Sammantaget har det lett till stora förändringar, vilka delvis beror på framväxten av ett bilsamhälle. Idag är det bara några få procent av befolkningen som når upp till ens de minimala nivåerna av hälsofrämjande fysisk aktivitet.</p><p>När vi idag söker strategier för att återskapa den rörelse som är tillräcklig för att bidra till en bättre hälsa är det angeläget att det sker på sätt som harmonierar med en hållbar utveckling. Transportsektorn har utomordentliga möjligheter att bidra till det genom åtgärder som stimulerar till gång och cykling. Det gäller särskilt då dessa rörelseformer utgör de mest populära inom befolkningen och många vill vara mer fysiskt aktiva, men tidsbrist ofta uppfattas som ett hinder. Aktiva transporter nyttjar regelbundna behov av tid för förflyttningar vilket underlättar att de blir en del av vår tidsbudget. De kan därigenom iscensättas ofta, vilket är värdefullt då återkommande muskelaktivitet är hälsans moder.</p><p>Gång och cykling som beteenden varierar i hög grad. För att få en uppfattning om i vilken grad de kan bidra till en bättre hälsa behöver vi relatera dem till konkreta uppgifter om volym, frekvens och intensitet. I rapporten redovisas fyra sådana exempel. De bygger på ett stort antal manliga och kvinnliga fotgängare och cyklister som arbetspendlar i Stor-Stockholm. 90 % av dem har en pendlingstur som tar minst 15 minuter. Det innebär att de kommer upp till minimikravet om 30 minuter måttlig fysisk aktivitet per dag om de går eller cyklar två turer per dag. Deras höga antal cykel- eller gångturer per år (c:a 380 för fotgängarna och 245 för cyklisterna) är viktiga genom att de bidrar till att underhålla de hälsoeffekter av rörelse som annars lätt tillbakabildas. Arbetspendlarnas beteende relateras till två hälsoutfall: förtida mortalitet och typ 2 diabetes. De når mellan stora till maximala hälsovinster enbart genom arbetspendlingen. Det kan handla om upp till 40-55 % reduceringar av risker jämfört med fysiskt inaktiva. Men beteendet cykling är säsongsberoende för många, och det finns behov av att informera om värdet av att fortsätta att cykla under vintern, samt att på olika sätt skapa bättre betingelser för vintercykling.</p><p>Rapporten belyser även hälsoekonomiska perspektiv. Både WHO:s och Norsk Vegvesens redskap för att värdera ekonomisk nytta av gång och cykling beskrivs och nyttjas för att bedöma ett scenario av ökad cykling vid arbetspendling i Stor-Stockholm. Om drygt 111 000 korta arbetsresor med bil skulle överföras till i snitt knappt 15 minuter, och högst 30 minuter långa cykelturer skulle det kunna leda till hälsoekonomiska vinster om flera miljarder kronor per år. Exempel på utvecklingsbehov av hälsoekonomiska värderingar vad gäller bland annat miljömässigt välbefinnande anges, och ett enkelt redskap för att kunna bedöma potentialen till hälsofrämjande fysisk aktivitet genom gång- och cykelturer på en ort presenteras.</p><p>En av rapportens slutsatser är att gång och cykling utgör basen i den rörelsepyramid som kan bidra till ökad folkhälsa. Det motiverar stora satsningar inom transportsektorn för att skapa säkra, trygga och attraktiva färdvägsmiljöer för fotgängare och cyklister. Det finns ett stort behov av att höja medvetandegraden bland allmänheten, förtroendevalda och tjänstemän verksamma inom såväl kommuner som landsting och myndigheter om de frågor som rapporten behandlar och dess slutsatser. Den belägenhet vi befinner oss i motiverar även att skolan får ett särskilt uppdrag som handlar om att undervisa om gång och cykling i ett sammanhang av transporter, och att belysa dessa rörelseformer ur perspektiv av både hälsa och hållbar utveckling.</p>FAAPSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, The Research Unit for Movement, Health and EnvironmentBorlänge : Trafikverket2015texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-4119ISBN 978-91-7467-816-1svoai:DiVA.org:gih-43032017-11-16T12:29:00Zgiharticlerefereed‘This might be him; the guy I’m gonna marry’ : Love and sexual relationships between female elite-athletes and male coachesSusanne JohanssonHåkan Larssoncoach–athlete relationshipelite-sportromantic lovesexual agencysexual abuseSocial SciencesSamhällsvetenskap<p>Infatuation, love and sexual relationships exist virtually anywhere. Coach–athlete sexualrelationships (CASR), however, are overlooked and under-researched. Within sport sociology, CASR have been framed predominantly by a sexual abuse discourse. Informed by Foucault’s discourse analysis, this study explores how discourses regarding performance enhancement in elite-sport and coaching, and romantic love, frame female elite-athletes’ experiences with CASR. Interviews with four female elite-athletes aged 26–30 were conducted. The results indicate that CASR are potentially problematic because they intersect and challenge discourses comprising elite-sports, coach–athlete relationships, female sexual agency, and love. Moreover, discourses of power differ between the professional and private contexts. While the athletes expect their coaches to exert dominance and control in the elite-sport context, love relationships are about equally and mutually giving away power and control. Although CASR can facilitate motivation and performance, framing CASR as inherently unequal and abusive can contribute to stigmatisation, secrecy and athlete disempowerment.</p>Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Department of Sport and Health SciencesSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Forskningsgruppen för pedagogik, idrott och fritidskultur2017texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-4303doi:10.1177/1012690215626593ISI:000414301800003enoai:DiVA.org:gih-42802016-02-11T14:00:00ZgihcomprehensiveDoctoralThesissciencePost activation potentiation : Modulating factors and mechanisms for muscle performancePaulo GagoPotentiationtwitchtriceps suraeknee anglestiffneslength changeselectromechanical delaySport and Fitness SciencesIdrottsvetenskap<p><strong>Introduction:</strong> Acute enhancements of muscle contractile properties and performance subsequent to a maximal or near maximal conditioning contraction are often termed post activation potentiation (PAP). Although still controversial, PAP is commonly linked to enhancements in the myosin regulatory light chain phosphorylation, leading to improvements in the excitation–contraction coupling. The PAP seen after a conditioning task often coexists with fatigue and is known to depend on strength level, muscle fiber type and age. Less is known about how factors such as static and dynamic changes in muscle length affect PAP, and on the relative contribution of contractile and tensile components to PAP.</p><p><strong>Aim:</strong> To enhance our understanding of how, and under what conditions, a single maximal isometric contraction affects plantar flexor muscle contractile performance, and other muscle tendon properties, in power athletes.</p><p><strong>Methods:</strong> Supramaximal twitches were evoked via electrical stimulation of the tibial nerve of athletes before and on several occasions after a 6-second maximal voluntary isometric contraction (6-s MVIC) in both static muscle, and during passive muscle lengthening and shorting at different angular velocities. Several contractile variables were measured from the twitches. The effects of a 6-s MVIC on Achilles tendon stiffness was calculated from torque and ultrasonography based measurements of tendon length at two submaximal contraction intensities. Overall stiffness index was calculated by analyzing the passive lengthening torque/angle curve.Results: A single MVIC enhanced muscle contractile properties and electromechanical delay for up to 5 minutes. Plantar flexor twitch variables such as peak twitch, rate of torque development and rate of torque relaxation were enhanced during shortening compared to lengthening muscle actions, and in an extended as compared to a flexed knee position. Achilles tendon stiffness and overall stiffness index were not significantly modulated by a single 6-s MVIC.</p><p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> The results of this thesis imply that functional enhancements from a 6-s conditioning MVIC would mainly come from improvements in contractile rather than tensile components. Stiffness changes should be monitored in future PAP-related studies since they may still occur after more extensive conditioning protocols than the current one. Improvements in contractile components subserving muscle strength after a conditioning MVIC suggests that enhancements in muscle power after a conditioning task should be greatest in fast concentric muscle actions, though still present in muscle lengthening. Conditioning should be performed in a position where full activation is easy to achieve and tailored to mach an athlete or group of athlete’s current status and characteristics, maximizing performance in a specific sport event.</p><p>The project recived financial support from the Swedish National Centre for Research in Sports (CIF).

The four sub-studies of the thesis deal with various issues concerning assessment of movement ability. First, the focus is on how the concept of physical literacy has influenced the steering document of the subject physical education and health (PEH) in Sweden. The question is: What kind of tensions and conflicts arise when different approaches and interpretations of movement ability are used in an educational context? Second, a structural validation is conducted of the NyTid test, an assessment tool developed to assess basic and complex movement skills at the ages of 12-16 years. The question is: Which categories of movement skills are identified through the validation of the NyTid test? Third, the study examines how ‘ability’ is conceptualised, configured and produced in movement tests and movement assessment tools. Finally, an investigation of how or whether an assessed low or high movement ability at the age of 15 matters for developing an interest in, or taste for, sport and physical activities nine years later, in young adulthood.</p><p>Movement ability is studied from different perspectives, including a multidisciplinary sport science approach using mixed methods. The theoretical standpoint in the sociocultural analyses is inspired by Bourdieu’s theories and concepts of habitus, capital, field and doxa, which are used as analytical tools. Different theories relating to the evaluation of movement abilities as product- or process oriented assessment are also made use of.</p><p>Movement abilities tests and assessment tools are also found to construct a specific and narrow form of physical capital strongly related to traditional sports. Accordingly, the social construction of movement ability through assessment tools is far from neutral and could affect how children see themselves and their sense of ‘ability’. Furthermore, the assumption that an acquired high level of movement ability plays a central role for being physically active is challenged in the thesis. Even though pupils at the age of 15 had a low level of assessed movement ability, it did not prevent them from acquiring a taste for sport and physical activity later in life. However, more studies on movement ability and the underlining mechanisms and factors for engaging in physical activities are necessary.</p>Forskningslinjen UtbildningSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Forskningsgruppen för pedagogisk idrottsforskningStockholm : Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH2016Electronic Thesis or Dissertationtexthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-4351ISBN 978-91-980862-7-0svDegree of Doctor in Sport SciencesdoctoralSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Forskningsgruppen för pedagogisk idrottsforskningoai:DiVA.org:gih-43812017-11-30T18:36:00ZgihbookReviewscienceElitidrottares motivbild skärskådas med nykommen metod : recension av boken Life Story Research in Sport: Understanding the experiences of elite and professional athletes through narrative / Kitrina Douglas & David CarlessJohn S.

This has to a large extent been possible through strong technical and methodological developments. In my lecture I will present various examples of this important development. One relates to how preschool environments can stimulate to PA, another how neighbourhood settings act on adults levels of PA, and a third example will deal with route environments in relation to cycling and its effects on both PA behaviour and environmental well-being. Active transportation can also enhance ambient air qualities, and the value of this in a public health context will be illuminated through a realistic example from the metropolitan area of Greater Stockholm, Sweden.

Han växte upp med modern Margareta och sin sociale far, Sven Saltin, som båda var folkskolelärare. Under läroverkstiden i Södertälje fångade stadens apotekare upp vinnaren vid en terränglöpning och bjöd in honom till en orienteringskurs. Ett livslångt intresse skapades. De bästa ämnena i skolan, svenska språket och svensk litteratur, representerade ett annan viktig ådra. Men det skogliga lockade mest; han ville bli jägmästare. Modern sa dock nej; ”Du ska bli läkare!” Så blev det. Under studier vid Karolinska Institutet rekryterade fysiologen Ulf von Euler honom som amanuens. Bengt nämnde sitt intresse för idrott, varvid han introducerades för professor Erik Hohwü Christensen vid Kungl. Gymnastiska Centralinstitutet.</p><p>Sommaren 1959 inleddes skolningen till arbetsfysiolog. Det första arbetet handlade om det intermittenta arbetets fysiologi, publicerades 1960, och bidrog till intervallträningens utveckling. Det blev tidigt uppenbart att Bengt hade en ovanlig talang för forskning. Efter en centralcirkulatorisk avhandling 1964, med Hohwü Christensen och Per-Olof Åstrand som handledare, visade han även prov på stor självständighet genom att utveckla en ny forskningslinje om skelettmuskulaturen. Den blev snart världsledande. Från 1973 fortsatte Bengt sin bana som professor vid Köpenhamns universitet. Med ett kort undantag vid Karolinska Institutet, förblev Köpenhamn basen för hans gärning. De sista knappa 20 åren ledde han Copenhagen Muscle Research Centre, vars forskning redan är inskriven i vetenskapshistoriska läroböcker.</p><p>Bengt hade en enorm arbetskapacitet, publicerade mer än 440 arbeten, och handledde drygt 40-50 doktorander. Han blev ledamot av Danmarks Kungliga Vetenskapsakademi, hedersdoktor vid tolv universitet, och fick Internationella Olympiska Kommitténs vetenskapliga pris, det finaste man kan få inom det rörelsevetenskapliga fältet. Men för att rätt förstå hans storhet bör man även ha mött honom som den oerhört stimulerande, generösa och stöttande människa han var, och fått ta del av de skarpa samhällsanalyserna samt utblickarna inom litteraturens, teaterns, operans och dansens världar. Han var beundrad av studenter över hela världen för den människa han var, för det arbete han utförde och för det han inspirerade till. Vi sörjer förlusten av en av de riktigt stora inom det arbetsfysiologiska fältet, och en ovanligt klok och vidsynt människa. </p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong>För vänner och kolleger</strong></p><p>Robert Boushel, professor</p><p>Peter Schantz, professor</p>Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Åstrand Laboratory of Work PhysiologySwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, The Research Unit for Movement, Health and Environment2014texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-3514svoai:DiVA.org:gih-36512017-05-31T13:56:00ZgihchapterpopularJubileumsåret : Varför gör di på detta viset?John FürstenbachHistoryHistoriaSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIHStockholm : Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH2014texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-3651svoai:DiVA.org:gih-36502017-06-08T13:45:00ZgihcollectionpopularFrån Kungl.

Efter värnplikt och beredskapstjänstgöring i pansartrupperna under andra världskriget kom han 1944 till Kungl. Gymnastiska Centralinstitutet (GCI/GIH) för studier till gymnastiklärare. Vid sluttentamen i fysiologi var hans svar så avancerade att den ansvarige läraren bad professorn, Erik Hohwü Christensen, att rätta dem. Kort därefter fick GCI:s fysiologiska institution en ny amanuens.</p><p>Efter gymnastikdirektörsexamen 1946 följde läkarstudier, och parallellt med dessa inleddes avhandlingsarbetet ”Experimental studies of physical working capacity in relation to sex and age”, som försvarades 1952. Genom detta utvecklades en metodik för att mäta maximal syreupptagning. Det blev en avgörande variabel att relatera till i hans senare forskning om den cirkulatoriska och respiratoriska anpassningen till fysiskt arbete och träning. Det submaximala konditionstest som P.-O., och hans blivande hustru Irma Ryhming, publicerade år 1954 bidrog till att göra GCI känt över världen. Det finns fog att benämna honom som ”den vetenskapligt baserade konditionsträningens fader”. 1970 blev han professor i kroppsövningarnas fysiologi vid GIH.</p><p>P.-O. visade tidigt ett stort intresse för undervisning, och många mötte honom i populärvetenskapliga skrifter såsom ”Kondition och hälsa” och ”Bättre kondition”, men det var genom den omfattande läroboken ”Textbook of Work Physiology: Physiological Bases for Exercise”, skriven tillsammans med Kaare Rodahl, som han blev det riktigt stora namnet inom internationell arbetsfysiologi. Där framträdde holisten Åstrand med en bredd och ett djup som ingen förr hade fångat och skrivit fram. Denna bok, P.-O:s pedagogiska förmåga och engagemang har haft avgörande betydelse för många studenter och kolleger.</p><p>Hans gärningar gjorde honom till ledamot i många lärda sällskap och hedersdoktor vid ett antal universitet ute i världen. Därtill var han en hedersman, med en personlighet präglad av en stor omtanke, slagkraftig humor och generös spiritualitet, ofta med inslag av en särpräglad musikalisk förmåga. För oss som studenter och lärare vid GIH kom samvaron med P.-O. ofta att formas till högtidsstunder.

Jobbinstalent identificationdancingtalent developmentApplied PsychologyTillämpad psykologiPerforming ArtsScenkonst<p>The identification and development of talent is a key concern for many dance educators, yet little research has been conducted in the area. In order to understand better how to optimise dance talent development among young people, systematic and rigorous research is needed. This paper summarises and discusses the key findings of a ground-breaking longitudinal interdisciplinary research project into dance talent development. Over two years, almost 800 young dancers enrolled at one of the eight nationwide Centres for Advanced Training (CATs) participated in the project. Physical factors, psychological characteristics, and injury data were collected quantitatively while the students' thoughts and perspectives on commitment, creativity and cultural variables were captured using qualitative methods. The largest study of its kind, the project yielded a wide range of findings with a number of practical implications. The main focus of this paper is on how the project findings apply to important pedagogic topics such as audition criteria, passion and commitment, and teaching behaviour. The area of talent identification and development is complex, yet this research has begun to shed new light on the notion of talent and has provided novel insights to support its development.</p>Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Sport Psychology research groupUniversity of BedfordshireTrinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and DanceTrinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance2014texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-3445doi:10.1080/19443927.2013.877964enoai:DiVA.org:gih-34672016-06-21T11:07:00ZgiharticlepopularNär mekanisk medicin gick om promenadenPeter SchantzPer Henrik LingLinggymnastikKungl.

Så låter det i en avhandling från 1763 om nyttiga rörelser. I början av 1800-talet tog Per Henrik Lings gymnastik över som den högsta formen av hälsogivande rörelse, och det är först i modern tid som promenaden åter har tillskrivits läkande egenskaper.</p><p>Artikeln inleds med följande beskrivning av en motionspromenad sommaren 1783:</p><p>Den 11 juni 1783 skrev skulptören Johan Tobias Sergel ett brev till sekreteraren vid den svenska ambassaden i Paris, Nils von Rosenstein. I det omnämner han sina motionsvanor och deras bakgrund: "Jag delar min tid mellan arbete om dagen och om aftnarna promenad till Jerfva, som konungen skänkt år herr Schröderheim. Denne har öfverlåtit ett rum åt mig. Jag går dit hvarje afton och återvänder tidigt på morgonen, ty jag måste ha motion, om jag vill lefva." Sergel skrev vidare att han led av "en däst fetma, full av galla och osunda vätskor; läkarens diagnos är att det är dessa som framalstrar gikten och melankolien". Sergels start- och målpunkter var ateljén i trakten av Hötorget respektive gården Nederjärva vid Haga-Brunnsvikens norra ände.

Many young people in Sweden stop participating in club sport during their teens, but some continue. Rather than concentrating on those who drop out of club sports the focus of this thesis is on the ones who continue with club sports during teenager years. Aaron Antonovsky’s salutogenic theory and sense of coherence model (SOC) has inspired the analysis of what it is that seems to be comprehensible, manageable and meaningful when participating in club sport. Furthermore, Pierre Bourdieu's key concept habitus and capital have been used as research tools when analyzing the relationship between sports participation and social position among teenagers.</p><p>This thesis is based on four studies and, empirically, it is partly longitudinal where the same 585 pupils born 1991 have answered a questionnaire at 10, 13, 16 and 19 years of age. The study is also based on 18 in-depth interviews with teenagers 15 to 19 years of age.</p><p>The results of this thesis show that club sports are successful in getting large numbers of children to attend and participate, but there seem to be many who just participate for a short time and only about one third stay on in their late teens. Very few start after the age of 13. Teenagers who are active participants appear to have started early, have taken part in different sports and do not mind taking part in competitions. Furthermore, they seem to possess specific dispositions (and certain assets) in terms of a habitus with a taste for sport and a specific cultural capital in terms of academic success. Moreover, it looks as if doing club sport is a social space where the teenagers can experience meaningfulness based on learning, developing physical ability, experiencing a feeling of belonging, and being challenged but few had elite ambitions.</p><p>The conclusion is that sports clubs should try to organize activities emphasizing development with numerous opportunities and challenges for motor and social learning with less focus on competitions as the only focal point. By asking questions about and taking into account what teens need to understand, cope with, and what they perceive as meaningful in sports, it is possible that more young people want to participate longer.</p>Forskningslinjen FritidSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Forskningsgruppen för pedagogik, idrott och fritidskulturStockholm : Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH2015Electronic Thesis or Dissertationtexthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-3631ISBN 978-91-980862-2-5svDegree of Doctor in Sport SciencesdoctoralSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Forskningsgruppen för pedagogik, idrott och fritidskulturoai:DiVA.org:gih-36752017-06-01T10:16:00ZgihchapterpopularSmidesverket Bollande egyptiska danserskor : en gåva från Föreningen IdlaKarin TörngrenArtsKonstStockholm : Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH2014texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-3675svoai:DiVA.org:gih-36762017-05-31T13:58:00ZgihchapterpopularSvävar, driverHelena IsozArtsKonstStockholm : Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH2014texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-3676svoai:DiVA.org:gih-36552017-05-30T11:36:00ZgihchapterpopularHälsopedagogprogrammetEva AnderssonLena KallingsStaffan HultgrenEva Kraepelien StridEducational SciencesUtbildningsvetenskapSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Laboratory for Biomechanics and Motor ControlSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Björn Ekblom's research groupSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Department of Sport and Health SciencesStockholm : Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH2014texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-3655svoai:DiVA.org:gih-36562017-06-01T10:13:00ZgihchapterpopularTränarprogrammet : från idrottslärarlinje till tränarprogramAnna TidénJane MeckbachEducational SciencesUtbildningsvetenskapSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Forskningsgruppen för pedagogik, idrott och fritidskulturStockholm : Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH2014texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-3656svoai:DiVA.org:gih-36602017-05-31T13:41:00ZgihchapterpopularLedarskap : ett nytt kunskapsområde vid GIHUrban BergstenJan SegerEducational SciencesUtbildningsvetenskapSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Department of Sport and Health SciencesStockholm : Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH2014texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-3660svoai:DiVA.org:gih-36592017-06-01T10:12:00ZgihchapterpopularFrån idrottsgrenar till idrottsläraGunnar TengEducational SciencesUtbildningsvetenskapSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Forskningsgruppen för pedagogik, idrott och fritidskulturStockholm : Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH2014texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-3659svoai:DiVA.org:gih-36642017-06-01T10:09:00ZgihchapterpopularFysiologisk forskning åren 1992-2013Kent SahlinHistoryHistoriaSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Research group for Mitokondriell funktion och metabolisk kontrollStockholm : Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH2014texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-3664svoai:DiVA.org:gih-36632017-05-31T13:57:00ZgihchapterpopularFysiologisk forskning åren 1988-2002Jan HenrikssonHistoryHistoriaStockholm : Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH2014texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-3663svoai:DiVA.org:gih-36672017-05-31T13:51:00ZgihchapterpopularPedagogisk forskningLars-Magnus EngströmHåkan LarssonSuzanne LundvallKarin RedeliusHistoryHistoriaSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Forskningsgruppen för pedagogik, idrott och fritidskulturStockholm : Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH2014texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-3667svoai:DiVA.org:gih-36662017-05-31T13:38:00ZgihchapterpopularHistorisk forskningJohn S.

Överhuvud taget har orienteringssporten inte i någon märkvärdig utsträckning väckt idrottsforskarnas intresse – med ett lysande undantag, nämligen pedagogikprofessorn vid Högskolan Kristianstad och Högskolan i Borås, Torgny Ottosson, som redan 1984 publicerade forskningsrapporten "Problemlösningsstrategier i orientering: En skiss till teoretisk ram och en metodstudie" vid Göteborgs universitet. Tre år senare kom avhandlingen Map-reading and wayfinding (Göteborg Studies in Educational Sciences, 65), och därefter har Ottosson publicerat ett flertal artiklar om orientering, bland annat i Scientific Journal of Orienteering. Om skälen till att Torgny Ottosson ensam fått föra orienteringsforskningen framåt i orienteringssportens hemland kan vi blott spekulera; möjligen kan det har att göra med att sporten till sin natur saknar viktiga förutsättningar för att bli en bred publiksport, och därmed uppvisar en markerad frånvaro av kommersiell potential. Här är dock inte sista ordet sagt; samma sak sas ju om skidskyttet innan televisionen utvecklade täckningen av tävlingar på ett sätt som gjort skidskytte till en av de främsta publiksporterna. Orienteringssporten sägs ha sitt ursprung i Sverige i slutet av 1800-talet – termen orientering användes första gången 1886, enligt engelska Wikipedia, medan SAOL refererar till Idrottsbladet från 1924. Oxford English Dictionary anger att orienteering infördes i engelskan på 1940-talet, från svenskans orientering. Ordet härstammar uppenbarligen från oriens, latin för Östern, Orienten, och definieras i orienteringssammanhang som "hitta väderstreck", med betydelsen "förflyttning från en punkt i terrängen till en annan (med hjälp av karta o. kompass)". Det började som militära övningar och därefter militära tävlingar. Den första tävlingen som var öppen för civila gick av stapeln i norska Nordmarka 1897. Sveriges första tävling för civila kom fyra år senare, i arrangemang av Sundbybergs IK. Damer släpptes in i sporten 1925 redan, och man hann med ett SM 1935, tre år innan Svenska Orienteringsförbundet bildades. 1960-talet inleddes med att Internationella Orienteringsförbundet bildades, och sporten nådde nu på allvar utanför den nordiska skogsmiljön. Frida Andersson, Fredrika Vångell och Leif Yttergren visar i sin artikel i den här uppdateringen hur orienteringssporten från och med 1980-talet genomgått en omfattande förändringsprocess, som kan sammanfattas med begreppen "miniglobalisering", det vill säga att sporten fått allt större internationell spridning; sportifiering, med innebörden att man brutit med traditionen att bara springa en enda distans; samt avskogifiering – man springer allt oftare i annan terräng än skogslandskap. Till det kan läggas att kartografitekniken har utvecklats med hjälp av datorer och GPS. Andersson, Vångell och Yttergren vill i sin studie undersöka i vilken utsträckning orienteringssportens förändringar under de senaste 30 åren lett till motsvarande förändringar i orienterarnas träningsstrategier. De kombinerar litteraturstudier och enkätintervjuer med aktiva förr och nu, och kommer fram till bitvis ganska förvånansvärda resultat, som kanske främst sätter sportifieringsbegreppets användning i samband med orientering ifråga. Traditionens makt är stor, här som i andra sammanhang.</p>Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Sport History Research GroupMalmö : Idrottsforum.org2011texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-4297svoai:DiVA.org:gih-34132016-09-19T10:01:00ZgihcomprehensiveDoctoralThesisscienceIdrottsprofilerad utbildning : i spåren av en avreglerad skolaIn the wake of a deregulated school system : school sports in SwedenMagnus FerryBourdieufield of educationfield of sportneoliberal discoursepupilsschool sportsteachersEducational SciencesUtbildningsvetenskap<p>This thesis aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of the Swedish school sports system, a system which has evolved since the beginning of the 1970s, the prevalence of which has increased significantly at all school levels since the mid-1990s and today attracts a large number of pupils and teachers.</p><p>Starting with the neoliberal discourse which has had a major impact on the development of the Swedish school system, and inspired by Pierre Bourdieu’s theoretical framework, the reasons for the emergence of the school sports system and the reasons why schools chose to specialise in sport is described. Also examined are the pupils and teachers involved and the mechanics behind their participation.</p><p>Empirically, this thesis is based on registry data, telephone interviews with principals at schools offering school sports and questionnaires responses from pupils and teachers involved in school sports.</p><p>The results of the thesis suggest that the main reason school sports has become so common is closely connected to increased competition on the local school market; by offering school sports, schools have found a possible way to attract more pupils. Furthermore, the results show that the social characteristics of pupils who have been selected or have chosen to participate in school sports differs from the national population of pupils and participants in sports clubs. This suggests that the available supply of school sports is better adapted to some pupils’ social backgrounds and habitus. In relation to the teachers involved, the results show that other resources than what is normally required to become a teacher is valued in school sports. Instead of a teacher certificate, a coaching education and experiences in competitive sport is valued highly which suggests that this is recognised as symbolic capital for teachers in school sports.</p><p>In conclusion this thesis demonstrates that school sports is influenced by both the fields of education and sport, and that the increased supply of school sports has implications for both fields.</p>Forskningslinjen UtbildningSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Forskningsgruppen för pedagogik, idrott och fritidskulturNationella forskarskolan i idrottsvetenskap, Göteborgs universitetGöteborg2014Electronic Thesis or Dissertationtexthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-3413ISBN 978-91-7346-795-7svDegree of Doctor of PhilosophydoctoralSwedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Forskningsgruppen för pedagogik, idrott och fritidskulturoai:DiVA.org:gih-42982017-11-30T22:24:00ZgihbookReviewscienceYttergren om artefaktisk idrottshistorisk metod : recension av boken The Visual in Sport av Mike Huggins, Mike O’Mahony (red.)Leif YttergrenHumanitiesHumaniora<p>The visual turn har i olika vetenskapliga sammanhang fått beteckna insikten att inte bara skriftlig dokumentation och muntliga berättelser, utan också visuella ting – som tavlor, fotografier, föremål, video och hypermedia – kan tjänstgöra som empiriskt forskningsmaterial. Etnografin var tidigt inne på den vägen, redan före Sarah Pinks inflytelserika Visual Ethnography från 2001, men också de engelska idrottsforskarna Mike Huggins och Mike O'Mahoney insåg tidigt att närmare studier av det visuella skulle få betydelse för idrottshistorisk forskning (och naturligtvis historieforskningen i allmänhet). Redan 2006 kom O'Mahoneys Sport in the USSR: Physical Culture – Visual Culture, och ett par år senare kom Mike & Mike ut med ett Call for Papers till dels ett temanummer av The International Journal for the History of Sport, dels en konferens på samma tema, "The Visual Turn in Sports History". Vi utgår från att konferensen ägde rum som planerat, den 13–14 juni 2009 på University of Bristol; vi vet med bestämdhet att temanumret av IJHS kom ut, som nummer 8–9 2011, med temat "Sport and the Visual". Och i sedvanlig ordning har det temanumret utkommit i bokform som en antologi, The Visual in Sport, med Huggins och O'Mahony som redaktörer (Routledge). Vi bad Leif Yttergren, själv idrottshistoriker med intresse för bilder, om en recension, och han försåg prompt den här forskningsinriktningen med en passande svensk översättning av "visual", nämligen artefakt. Vår recensent uppskattar boken för dess innehåll, med 18 intresseväckande bidrag över 300 sidor, men klagar på den dåliga återgivningen av bildmaterialet – en berättigad invändning mot en bok med en uttalad visuell ambition – och på det ohemula priset.</p>Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, Sport History Research GroupIdrottsforum.org2012texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-4298svoai:DiVA.org:gih-42912017-11-30T22:28:00ZgiharticlerefereedRunning economy and blood lactate accumulation in elite football players with high and low maximal aerobic powerJohnny NilssonDaniele Cardinalefootballaerobic powerrunning economylactate accumulationSport and Fitness SciencesIdrottsvetenskap<p>The purpose was to determine running economy and lactate threshold among a selection of male elite football players with high and low aerobic power.

Thirty-nine players from the highest Swedish division classified as defenders (n=18), midfield players (n=12) or attackers (n=9) participated. Their mean (± sd) age, height and body mass (bm) were 24.4 (±4.7) years, 1.80 (±5.9)m and 79 (±7.6)kg, respectively. Running economy (RE) and anaerobic threshold (AT) was determined at 10, 12, 14, and 16km/h followed by tests of maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max). Maximal strength (1RM) and average power output (AP) was performed in squat lifting. Squat jump (SJ), counter-movement jump with free arm swing (CMJa), 45m maximal sprint and the Wingate test was performed. Average VO2max for the whole population (WP) was 57.0mL O2•kg-1min-1. The average AT occurred at about 84% of VO2max. 1RM per kg bm0.67 was 11.9±1.3kg. Average squat power in the whole population at 40% 1RM was 70±9.5W per kg bm0.67. SJ and CMJa were 38.6±3.8cm and 48.9±4.4cm, respectively. The average sprint time (45m) was 5.78± 0.16s. The AP in the Wingate test was 10.6±0.9W•kg-1. The average maximal oxygen uptake among players in the highest Swedish division was lower compared to international elite players but the Swedish players were better off concerning the anaerobic threshold and in the anaerobic tests.

I väntan på att det händer – och vi håller inte andan – kan åtminstone idrottsstudenter nu ta del av en, enligt vår recensent, alldeles utmärkt grundläggande manual för universitetsstudier inom idrott riktad till förstaårsstudenter. Pia Lundquist Wanneberg har läst, och imponerats av, <em>Study Skills for Sports Studies</em> av Tara Magdalinski (Routledge). Enligt förlaget är detta den enda boken i sitt slag, och att döma av vår recensents positiva bedömning lär det för närvarande knappast behövas några andra. Författaren är senior lektor vid University College Dublin Centre for Sports Studies där hon också belönats för sina pedagogiska insatser. Pia Lundquist Wanneberg säger inte att Magdalinskis nya bok bör sättas i händerna på alla idrottsstudenter under första dagen på högskolan, men det är en slutsats som åtminstone denne redaktör drar av recensionen.</p>Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH2014texthttp://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:gih:diva-3339svoai:DiVA.org:gih-30582016-09-16T14:06:00Zgihreportscience"Jag är en normal kille liksom" : Att göras och göra sig till ridsportkilleEva LinghedeHåkan LarssonSport and Fitness SciencesIdrottsvetenskapPedagogyPedagogik<p>Tjejgrej, karlgöra, fjollsport... Forskaren Eva Linghede och professor Håkan Larsson från Gymnastik- och Idrottshögskolan (GIH) har på uppdrag av Svenska Ridsportförbundet gjort en studie om killar och ridsport. Hur ser killarnas väg in i ridsporten ut? Och hur är det egentligen att vara kille på en stallbacke som till 90% befolkas av flickor? Forskningen bygger på intervjuer med män och pojkar och fångar berättelser om stärkande hästkraft men också om utanförskap och stereotypa könsnormer.
