Bullying

Bullying

A modern form of aggression is bullying. As you learn in your study of child development, socializing and playing with other children is beneficial for children’s psychological development. However, as you may have experienced as a child, not all play behavior has positive outcomes. Some children are aggressive and want to play roughly. Other children are selfish and do not want to share toys. One form of negative social interactions among children that has become a national concern is...

Collisions in Multiple Dimensions: Problem Solving

Collisions in Multiple Dimensions: Problem Solving

In multiple dimensions, the conservation of momentum applies in each direction independently. Hence, to solve collisions in multiple dimensions, we should write down the momentum conservation in each direction separately. To help understand collisions in multiple dimensions, consider an example.
A small car of mass 1,200 kg traveling east at 60 km/h collides at an intersection with a truck of mass 3,000 kg traveling due north at 40 km/h. The two vehicles are locked together. What is the...

Summary

This summary is machine-generated.

Body checking in youth hockey significantly impacts player safety. Larger players generate greater impact forces, and checking leagues show higher rates of serious injuries and fractures compared to non-checking leagues.

Area of Science:

Pediatric sports medicine
Biomechanics of ice hockey
Youth sports injury prevention

Background:

Body checking is a controversial aspect of ice hockey, particularly at the Pee Wee (youth) level.
Concerns exist regarding player safety and the potential for increased injury rates in leagues permitting body checking.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate the physical characteristics and impact forces associated with body checking in youth hockey players.
To compare the incidence and types of injuries in youth hockey leagues with and without body checking rules.

Main Methods:

Study 1: Compared physical measurements (height, weight, grip strength, skating speed) and impact forces of small versus large players in body-checking leagues.
Study 2: Investigated injury data from leagues with and without body checking, categorizing injury types and causes.

Main Results:

Significant morphologic differences between small and large players correlated with impact forces during body checks (p <.05).
Body checking leagues reported 55.5% of injuries from body contacts.
Serious injuries were six times more frequent in checking leagues, with body checking causing 88% of recorded fractures.

Conclusions:

Player size influences impact forces in body checking.
Body checking in youth hockey is associated with a substantially higher risk of serious injuries and fractures.
