What is Climate?01:16

What is Climate?

Climate refers to the prevailing weather conditions in a specific area over an extended period. As the saying goes, “Climate is what you expect. Weather is what you get.” Climate is influenced by geographic factors, such as latitude, terrain, and proximity to bodies of water.
Factors Affecting Perception01:25

Factors Affecting Perception

Perception is influenced by perceptual set, context, motivation, and emotion. Perceptual set, or perceptual expectancy, refers to the tendency to perceive things in a particular way, influenced by previous experiences and expectations. This phenomenon affects the interpretation of stimuli, creating a set of mental tendencies and assumptions that impact sensory perceptions of sound, taste, touch, and sight.
An illustrative example of a perceptual set is the scenario where an airline pilot told...
Requirements for Human Life01:26

Requirements for Human Life

The Earth and its atmosphere have provided humans with air, water, and food, but these are not the only requirements for survival. Humans also require a specific range of temperature and pressure that the Earth and its atmosphere provides.
Oxygen
Atmospheric air is only about 20 percent oxygen, but that oxygen is a key component of the chemical reactions that keep the body alive, including the reactions that produce ATP. Brain cells are susceptible to a lack of oxygen because they require a...
Factors Affecting Body Temperature01:28

Factors Affecting Body Temperature

As a nurse, it is vital to understand the factors affecting body temperature to monitor variations and effectively evaluate deviations from regular.
Factors may  include:
Physiological Barriers01:25

Physiological Barriers

Physiological barriers are semi-permeable cellular structures restricting drug diffusion into intracellular compartments and tissues. There are six types of physiological barriers: blood endothelial, cell membrane, blood-brain, blood-cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), blood-placenta, and blood-testis barriers.
The blood endothelial barrier is the most porous of these. It allows all small ionized, un-ionized, and lipophilic molecules to pass through the endothelial lining into the interstitial space...
Global Climate Change01:50

Global Climate Change

Throughout its ~4.5 billion year history, the Earth has experienced periods of warming and cooling. However, the current drastic increase in global temperatures is well outside of the Earth’s cyclic norms, and evidence for human-caused global climate change is compelling. Paleoclimatology, the study of ancient climate conditions, provides ample evidence for human-caused global climate change by comparing recent conditions with those in the past.

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Physical activity settings often exclude lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) youth and individuals with disabilities. Future professionals recognize exclusion, highlighting the need for inclusive program strategies in physical education and sports.

Area of Science:

  • Sport Science
  • Sociology of Sport
  • Inclusion Studies

Background:

  • Minority groups, including LGBT youth, face exclusion in physical activity settings.
  • Homophobic remarks and lack of intervention are prevalent in educational environments.
  • Understanding the climate within physical activity is crucial for promoting inclusivity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the perceived climate for LGBT youth and other minority groups in physical activity.
  • To compare inclusivity across physical education, organized sport, and exercise settings.
  • To identify needs for future physical activity professionals in creating inclusive environments.

Main Methods:

  • Administered a school climate survey to undergraduates, student teachers, and a campus Pride group.
  • Collected climate ratings for physical education, organized sport, and exercise settings.
  • Utilized multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) to analyze differences in perceived climate.

Main Results:

  • School climate survey findings mirrored national data on homophobic remarks and low intervention rates.
  • Physical activity settings showed mid-range inclusivity ratings overall.
  • Settings were rated more inclusive for racial/ethnic minorities and less inclusive for gay/lesbian individuals and people with disabilities.

Conclusions:

  • Sexual orientation and physical characteristics are significant factors in harassment and exclusion within sports and physical activity.
  • Future physical activity professionals acknowledge exclusion but require enhanced skills for inclusive program development.
  • There is a need for training programs that equip professionals with strategies to foster inclusive physical activity environments.
