This qualitative research aimed at identifying conceptions held by undergraduate students regarding the term motivation, and motives leading them to the consumption of legal drugs. Data were collected through a questionnaire with four open questions, applied to 15 students of a public university in the central region of Mexico. In order to perform the data analysis, answers were classified in two categories: a) Undergraduate students' conceptions regarding the term motivation and b) Undergraduate students' conceptions regarding the motives for consumption. Such analysis indicated that students identify two types of motivations: external and internal. The external motivation includes family, mass media and friends; whereas internal motivation includes personal characteristics, need of belonging, curiosity, pleasure and idleness.

Results of the study: 1) Motivation is needed in coaching athletes. Between the two forms of motivation is more dominant internal motivation even though it is not separated from external motivation in the field or at home. 2) The trainer is very influential in coaching so the trainer must have a good foundation. The trainer already has a license and has participated in FILANESIA training, but cannot carry out the training program that he has made well because of incomplete infrastructure. 3) Infrastructure facilities at MENARA FC are sufficient but still unable to cope with all forms of training provided by the coach, there are still many that must be completed

ABSTRACT The following paper aims to present and analyze the perceptions of undergraduate students in Mathematics (Major and Bachelor) when it comes to research. This is a qualitative and ongoing study. The participants are students of a public university in the south of Bahia, who answered the question "What is research?" At the beginning of the Undergraduate Thesis Program (TCC), when they first had contact with scientific methodology. As a method of data analysis, the authors used the Discursive Textual Analysis (DTA). The results indicate that students already have perceptions about what research is, how to develop it, the elements that constitute a research project and the need for theoretical studies to deepen and advance in the studies. Moreover, they seem to understand that through research it is possible to have a new point of view regarding the reality studied. Finally, undergraduate and graduate students perceive research as a formative principle to help them enlarge their knowledge. Keywords: Research. Undergraduate Thesis. Perception of students.

Abstract. Earlier research suggested that militant extremists could have certain aspects of psychopathic and psychotic characteristics. Relying on these studies, we investigated whether the Militant Extremist Mind-Set (MEM) could be explained by psychopathy, sadism, and Disintegration (psychosis proneness), as subclinical manifestations of amoral, antisocial, and psychotic-like traits. In Study 1 (306 undergraduate students), it was shown that sadistic and psychopathic tendencies were related to Proviolence (advocating violence as a means for achieving a goal); psychopathic and disintegrative tendencies were associated to the Vile World (belief in a world as a corrupted and vile place), while Disintegration was the best predictor of Divine Power (relying on supernatural forces as a rationale for extremist acts). In Study 2 (147 male convicts), these relations were largely replicated and broadened by including implicit emotional associations to violence in the study design. Thus, while Proviolence was found to be related to a weakened negative emotional reaction to violent pictures, Vile World was found to be associated with stronger negative emotions as a response to violence. Furthermore, Proviolence was the only MEM factor clearly differentiating the sample of convicts from male students who participated in Study 1. Results help extend current understanding about personal characteristics related to militant extremism.

Interview technique, which is one of the qualitative research methods, was used as data collection tool and content analysis method was used for data analysis. Results. Demographic factors were interpreted after the analysis of the obtained data and three main research questions were discussed under the topics of the views of athletes about the concept of Orienteering which is an outdoor sport, themes and codes regarding the purpose of Orienteering by the students who participated in the outdoor camp, and themes and codes about the outcomes of Orienteering for the students who participated in outdoor camps. Conclusion.
