Mood scales were administered to spectators attending an especially violent ice hockey game (n = 117) and a relatively nonviolent game (n = 159). Subjects completed the scales either prior to the opening face-off, during the first or second period intermissions, or immediately following the match. The between-subjects design revealed an increase in spectator hostility accompanied by a quadratic arousal function for the violent game. The relationship between hostility (and arousal) and the period of play was best described by an inverted-U function. Arousal decreased at the nonviolent match. Other mood states were largely unaffected by the two games. The results were discussed with reference to three models of spectator moods in which outcome is featured as a major variable.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the energy expenditure and heart rate responses elicited in elite male midget ice hockey players during small-sided games. Nine players (aged 15.89 ± 0.33 years) participated in the study. Maximal progressive treadmill testing in the laboratory measured the relationship of oxygen consumption ([Formula: see text]) to heart rate before on-ice assessments of heart rate during six different small-sided games: 1v1, 2v2, 2v2 with support player, 3v3 with support player, 3v3 with transitions, and 4v4 with two support players. Heart rate was recorded continuously in each game. 3v3 T small-sided game was the most intense for all four intensity markers. All six small-sided games reached 89% HRmax or more with heart rate peaks in active effort repetition. These findings demonstrate that such small-sided games are considered as high intensity games and are an effective training method for ice hockey players.

"There is an urgent need to support families of children with developmental disorders, especially when it is necessary for such families to help each other. However, practice and research related to support systems for families have begun only recently in Japan. Considering these issues, the authors developed a program to support mutual exchanges among parents of children with developmental disorders. This study aimed to verify the program’s effectiveness and to examine the relationship between participants’ program experience and its effectiveness. Participants included 21 male and female parents of children with developmental disorders. The parents were in their 30s to 50s (4 in their 30s, 14 in their 40s, and 3 in their 50s) (1 male, 20 females). Effectiveness indicators included the Profile of Mood States 2nd Edition-Adult Short (POMS2-A Short) (before and after implementation), Session Impact Scale (SIS), and Mutual Exchange Support Experience Rating Scale. t-tests were conducted on the pre- and post-program results of the POMS2-A short. Results showed that scores on Anger-Hostility (t=4.77, df=20, p<.01, d=1.04), Confusion-Bewilderment (t=4.31, df=20, p<.01, d=.94), Depression-Dejection (t=2.88, df=20, p<.01, d=.63), Fatigue-Inertia (t=3.63, df=20, p<.01, d=.79), and Tension-Anxiety (t=3.61, df=20, p<.01, d=.79) in the POMS2-A Short decreased significantly after the implementation of the program. These results evidence the effectiveness of the program in improving several mood states, especially anger-hostility, tension-anxiety, depression-depression, and fatigue."

The control of sweating in humans has been described quantitatively in terms of skin and core temperatures (Tsk and Tcore, respectively). However, the precision with which features of the relationship between sweat rate and Tcore at a given Tsk can be reproduced in the short term is not known. We focused on the threshold Tcore. We held Tsk at 38 degrees C until sweating began for two periods separated by a period of cooling with Tsk at 32 degrees C in six men and three women. The esophageal temperature (Tes) at which sweating began was invariably lower in the second period of heating (average difference 0.09 degree C; maximum 0.17 degree C). Also, the rate of rise in Tes was invariably higher (average 148%) during the second period of heating. Thus, although a threshold cannot be reproduced within the error of Tes measurement, the consistency and small magnitude of the downward shift recommend our protocol as a practical method for evaluating other influences on thermoregulation, provided that the effects are big enough to be seen against a background of an expected small decrease. From the fundamental point of view, the consistency of the downward displacement has provocative implications, e.g., the rate of change in Tcore influences sweating or thermosensitive units in slow-responding thermal compartments contribute to the Tcore input signal.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between participation in minor league Canadian ice hockey and delinquency. Specifically, the study sought to compare the extent of delinquency among ice hockey players and nonathletes, and to examine the relationship between ice hockey participation and delinquency on the basis of a group of sociopsychological variables. The sample of ice hockey players was taken from the Montreal midget minor ice hockey league (15 to 16 years of age) and was further subdivided into local, inter-city, and provincial players. Delinquency was classified by type of offense, namely drugs, theft, physical violence, and vandalism. Data were obtained from anonymous, self-report questionnaires. The results indicated no significant difference in total delinquency between ice hockey players and nonathletes. However, when delinquency was categorized by type, ice hockey players reported more delinquency of a physically violent nature than nonathletes. The results also showed a differential association between a variety of sociopsychological variables and delinquency among ice hockey players and nonathletes

How do mood states influence risk-taking and choice? This study was conducted to demonstrate and explain the relationship of mood, risk-taking, and choice. The results showed that participants were more likely to systematically display risk-taking behavior when in a negative mood than when in a positive mood. The mood effect was moderated by openness to feelings (OF) in the individual personality.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0in 0.5in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;" lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">This paper investigates the relationship between money supply and price level using new tests for cointegration with two unknown regime shifts and bootstrap causality tests. Quarterly Chilean data from 1973: I to 2006: III is used. We find empirical evidence that the variables establish a long-run steady state relationship in the presence of two regime shifts. The elasticity of price level with regard to money supply is close to unity during the first period (prior to 1978: II). The elasticity is reduced during the second period (1978: III-1986: I) and it is also reduced for the remaining period but the reduction is smaller. We also conducted bootstrap causality tests that reveal the following: in the first sub-period there is bidirectional causality between the underlying variables. In the last two sub-periods money supply causes the price level only. This implies that money supply is weakly exogenous concerning the price level and that the monetary authority had enough independence to execute an active monetary policy in Chile. <span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"></span></span></span></p>

This chapter examines China’s experience with structural change during three distinct periods of economic reform and growth: 1978–1995, 1995 through to about 2010, and 2010 to present. In each case, the chapter finds that the pattern of structural change is related to the choices made by policy makers with respect to reform and market transition. The first period saw a shift towards a more labour-intensive output basket, a structure that was more in line with China’s underlying comparative advantage, while the second period witnessed a move ‘upstream’ toward more capital and skill-intensive industries. Since 2010, China has begun to move toward a service economy and embarked on a new era of structural change. Each of these periods offers specific ‘lessons’ about the relationship between policy and structural change. The chapter concludes with a discussion of these lessons and a number of generalizations that apply to China’s experience as a whole.
