A follow-up study of 47 individuals with paroxysmal tachycardia in infancy is reported. The incidence of recurrence decreases from 55% during infancy to 17% up to 10 years of age; a slight increase to 23% is then observed in adolescence. There is a higher incidence of paroxysm in cases with preexcitation in the ECG. Physical overexertion may be a triggering factor in recurrences, but exemption from school physical education and sports should only be granted exceptionally. No signs of reduced physical working capacity were found in this group. The results of maintenance therapy do not appear to have improved in the past decade.

Couched in attitude theory, this follow-up study examines children-voiced perceptions of enjoyment and usefulness toward a district mandated elementary physical education (PE) program. Attitudes of 277 5th and 6th grade males and females from four representative schools from within a district were assessed in a mixed methods study. Survey results were analyzed to examine between groups, schools (based on SES), and gender differences. Twelve males and twelve females were selected from lowest and highest survey responders for follow-up interviews. Survey results indicated a generally positive attitudes (enjoyment: M = 2.71, SD = 0.35; usefulness M =2.69, SD = 0.35) with significant enjoyment differences (F(3, 266) = 5.627, p ≤ .001) noted between schools. Qualitative results define quality PE as enjoyable and useful when it (a) provided a fun, social, learning environment and activities, (b) made an impact on healthy knowledge and behaviors, and (c) consisted of well managed classes taught by engaging teachers.

The authors conducted a follow-up study of the attitudes of a group of alcoholism counselor trainees upon the completion of an intensive counselor training program. The instrument used in the assessment of attitudes was a questionnaire consisting of forty statements which the respondents were asked to scale. Subsequent to an earlier survey, administered at the initiation of the program, the results indicate positive development in attitudes and greater openness to the complications of alcoholism.

As par: of a 1963 follow-up study of participants in the National Science Foundation's 1960 Summer Science Training Program for secondary school students, characteristics of the program, as reflected by the questionnaire responses of the participants, were subjected to factor analysis. Responses to 57 items from the questionnaire were judged relevant to the study and were organized to reflect the post SSTP experience and career development of participants in 134 programs. Twelve factors emerged from the analysis.

“What we have is a systemic failure —one that involves the relationship of physical education programs in public schools with teacher preparation in higher education.”(Siedentop & Locke, 1997). This assessment led Prusak, Pennington, Vincent-Graser, Beighle, and Morgan (2010) to an examination of a school district that seemed to have achieved Systemic Success in PE (SSPE). The authors sought to understand SSPE’s history from conception to institutionalization. This three-year, qualitative, follow-up study was conducted using Collins’ (2001) framework from Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap… and Others Don’t.Making this examination from a business sector perspective provides an insightful look into the making of SSPE. Results of this study provide evidence that while social sector organizations (such as education) share much in common with business sector companies, there are distinct and fascinating differences. Collins’ (2001) framework is both confirmed and extended in this study. Findings also provide a means for PE practitioners and PETE programs to accomplish what Siedentop and Locke (1997) hoped for—to succeed together.
