A031: Historical Evolution, Value, and Cognitive Anchoring of Interdisciplinary Thematic Learning in Physical Education and Health
No full textIn recent years, as disciplinary integration has become an important direction of curriculum reform, interdisciplinary thematic learning has attracted attention for its advantages in developing students\u27 core literacy, solving problems in complex contexts, and promoting the development of higher-order thinking, and has been widely practiced in various subject areas. The purpose of this paper is to examine the history of the development of interdisciplinary thematic learning of physical education and health, whose contemporary value was analyzed and cognitively anchored. First, the literature related to the interdisciplinary thematic learning of physical education and health was collected on CNKI and WOS through the documentation method. Second, text analysis is used to interpret the content related to the interdisciplinary thematic learning of physical education and health. (1) The interdisciplinary thematic learning of physical education and health is an effective way to promote the teaching reform and improve the teaching quality of physical education and health, and it is also an important starting point for the formation and all-around development of students\u27 core competencies. (2) It is believed that interdisciplinary thematic learning of physical education and health has taken on three forms in its historical development they are the emergence of interdisciplinary, the attempt of an integrated curriculum, and the development of interdisciplinary. The three types described above provide a complete and comprehensive picture of the evolutionary characteristics of interdisciplinary thematic learning of physical education and health. (3) The value of the times is mainly manifested in breaking through the boundaries of disciplines, continuously strengthening the collaborative education function of physical education disciplines, upholding a complete structure, forming a systematic interdisciplinary thematic learning system, highlighting the orientation of the times, and continuously helping to improve students\u27 core competencies. Conclusions/Discussion: In the future, we should understand the importance of interdisciplinary thematic learning in the discipline of physical education, to correctly understand the different relationships in interdisciplinary thematic learning, to construct meaningful and core-oriented learning themes, and to focus on the overall design of interdisciplinary thematic learning
A258: Comparing Shoulder Function Between Youth Table Tennis Players with Lower Back Injuries and Those without
No full textLower back injuries, which affect sports performance and activities of daily life, are high frequency injury site experienced by table tennis players. However, studies on physical fitness among youth table tennis players are scarce. This study aimed to identify the differences in shoulder function characteristics between elite youth table tennis players with a history of lower back injuries and those without. Method: Shoulder function evaluation tests were performed among thirty-six elite youth table tennis players aged 1420 years using electronic medical check-ups (kinvent v3 sensor). The tests included shoulder flexion, extension, abduction, internal rotation (IR), and external rotation (ER). According to a history of lower back injuries, the players were divided into a non-injured group (n = 24) and an injured group (n = 12), and the differences in physical fitness characteristics between the two groups were compared. Independent-samples t-test and nonparametric test were used for data analysis. Significant differences in shoulder ER with 90° flexion in sitting position (nondominant vs dominant: 143.44° ± 17.83° vs 120.62° ± 17.75°, p \u3c 0.001) and shoulder ER with 90o abduction in sitting position (nondominant vs dominant: 176.03° ± 23.18° vs 152.13°± 21.58°, p \u3c 0.001) existed between the two sides among participants with a history of lower back injuries while no significant differences existed among those without. Moreover, there was a significant difference in shoulder extension angle in the standing position (nondominant vs dominant: 54.61° ± 9.48° vs 49.40°± 8.03°, p \u3c0.001) among youth elite table tennis players with a history of lower back injuries. There were significant bilateral asymmetries in shoulder ER at 90° flexion and 90° abduction in the sitting position, as well as in shoulder extension angle in the standing position, among elite youth table tennis players with a history of lower back injuries. These findings assist coaches and elite youth table tennis players in maintaining targeted training adjustments to address these asymmetries
A078: Baduanjin\u27s Cognitive Benefits in Older Adults with MCI: A Meta-Analysis
No full textMild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a transitional state between normal aging and dementia, posing a significant public health challenge. With the limited efficacy of pharmacological interventions, non-pharmacological approaches like Baduanjin exercise, a traditional Chinese mind-body practice, have gained attention for their potential to enhance cognitive function. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of Baduanjin exercise on cognitive function in older adults with MCI, as measured by Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) scores. Method: A systematic literature search was conducted in Web of Science, PubMed, and Embase up to February 2024. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) investigating the effects of Baduanjin on cognitive function in older adults aged ≥60 with MCI were included. Two independent reviewers performed data extraction and risk-of-bias assessment using Cochrane guidelines. The standardized mean difference (SMD) was calculated using Hedges’ g under a random-effects model to account for heterogeneity across studies. Heterogeneity was quantified using Cochran’s Q test and Higgins’ I² statistic. Statistical analyses were conducted using R 4.3.2 with the “meta” package. Three RCTs involving 190 participants met the inclusion criteria. The pooled SMD for MoCA scores was 1.09 (95% CI: 0.49 to 1.68, z = 3.59, p \u3c 0.00), indicating a significant improvement in cognitive function following Baduanjin exercise. However, substantial heterogeneity was observed (I² = 71%, 95% CI: 2.8% to 91.6%), likely due to variations in intervention duration, frequency, and participant characteristics. Funnel plot symmetry and Egger’s regression test suggested no significant publication bias among the included studies. This meta-analysis provides robust evidence supporting the beneficial effects of Baduanjin exercise on cognitive function in older adults with MCI. The findings align with existing literature suggesting that mind-body exercises can enhance cognitive health through mechanisms such as improved neuroplasticity, cerebral blood flow, and stress reduction. Despite substantial heterogeneity, the results underscore the potential of Baduanjin as a non-pharmacological intervention for cognitive health. Future research should focus on standardizing intervention protocols, identifying optimal exercise parameters, and elucidating the underlying mechanisms to maximize therapeutic benefits. Additionally, larger and more diverse RCTs are needed to confirm these findings and explore the generalizability of the intervention across different populations and settings
A219: Health Integration Health Promotion System to Promote High-Quality Population Development Research
No full textIn recent years, with the aging of China\u27s population, the decline in birth rate, and the increase in the incidence of chronic diseases, how to build an effective health promotion system for physical and health integration to promote high-quality development of the population has become the focus of attention of academics and policymakers. Based on the demographic dividend theory and human capital theory, this study systematically analyzes the connotation, logic, and practical dilemmas of the health promotion system for physical and health integration, and proposes an optimization path, with a view to providing a theoretical basis and practical guidance for the high-quality development of China\u27s population. This study adopts the literature analysis method, field research method, and expert interview method to explore the optimization path of the physical and health integration health promotion system to help promote the high-quality development of the population. The study found that the construction of a physical and health integration health promotion system to promote the high-quality development of the population is mainly embodied in the total health protection and health literacy improvement in the whole cycle, and the optimization of the structure of the age-appropriate workforce and the enhancement of human capital. However, in the actual promotion process, the following realistic dilemmas still exist. Lack of active health awareness and insufficient refinement of exercise and health promotion policies; weak supply of fitness resources and the level of national fitness services to be improved; imbalance in health data sharing and the urgent need to improve the mechanism of synergy in the integration of health and physical fitness; and the lack of norms for exercise referrals and the lack of protection of health promotion services to be improved. Improve health promotion policies and cultivate an active health environment; optimize the layout of fitness resources and enhance the all-age health reserve; innovate the mechanism of United Health in the Body and strengthen the integration of health data; improve the exercise referral system and enhance the protection of health services
A283: Research on the Operation Mode and Synergy Effect of Youth Sports Clubs in China
No full textAt present, the continuous decline of the physical health indicators and the insufficient participation in sports activities among the youth in China are becoming prominent. There is also divergence in the operation modes of youth sports clubs between commercialization and public welfare. This study aims to explore the operational characteristics of different types of youth sports clubs, analyze their synergistic paths in policy-driven and market mechanisms, and provide a theoretical basis for optimizing the supply of youth sports services. Method: By methods of literature research and interviews, policy texts on the development of youth sports clubs in China and related overseas literature were systematically sorted, and thus a theoretical analysis framework was constructed. Experts in related fields were selected to conduct in-depth interviews, and the core conclusions were refined according to the analytical framework and interviews. (1) The operation type of youth sports clubs in China is mainly divided into commercialization mode and public welfare mode, with the development of commercial clubs relying mainly on the market mechanism and public welfare ones relying more on the leadership of relevant policies. (2) The level of personalized sports services for youth in commercial youth sports clubs is better than that in public youth sports clubs. (3) Public welfare youth sports clubs mainly rely on government-purchased services. Despite their insufficient market-oriented synergy, they are irreplaceable in universal services. The study found that policy guidance for youth sports clubs can effectively improve service equity, while market mechanisms can activate social resources to enhance service diversity. In the development of youth sports clubs, the dilemma of synergy in between is due to the difference in objectives: policy focuses on fairness, while the market pursues efficiency. The synergy between policy guidance and market mechanism should be further refined, and the enhancement of public welfare and efficiency should be realized through the establishment of an incentive-compatible mechanism of “policy guidance-market response”. In the future, there will be “layered synergy”: basic sports services will ensure universality by policies, while higher-order needs will be customized through market mechanisms. The limitations of this study are that it does not analyze the differences in youth sports clubs in different regions with different levels of economic development, and it does not quantify the synergistic effect
A062: A Study of the Relationship Between Basic Motor Skills and Attentional Stability in Older Children
No full textThis study aims to understand the developmental status of basic motor skills and attentional stability of kindergarten children, and further analyze the correlation between the two, to provide a scientific theoretical basis for the development of young children\u27s basic motor skills and carry out the optimization of physical education curricula in a collaborative manner at home. In this study, 238 kindergarten children (118 boys and 120 girls) in three kindergartens in Beijing were. The Test of Gross Motor Development, Third Edition (TGMD-3) was used to measure the basic motor skills of the children scratch-off test scale was used to measure the stability of the children\u27s attention was analyzed by descriptive statistics and linear regression using SPSS 27.0. (1) Mobile motor skills (30.930 ± 7.250) were higher than manipulative motor skills (30.140 ± 8.350) in older children. There was no difference in mobility, motor skills, and manipulative motor skills between children of different genders (t = -0.796, p = 0.427; t = 1.765, p = 0.079), but there was a difference in some of the items (straddling, one-handed striking of a bouncing ball, and over-the-shoulder throwing). (2) Basic motor skills were significantly and positively correlated with attentional stability (r = 0.651, p \u3c 0.01). There was a positive correlation between mobility movement skills and attentional stability (r = 0.539, p \u3c 0.01) and manipulative movement skills and attentional stability (r = 0.622, p \u3c 0.01). The mean value of attention stability of children was 2.321, and there was no significant difference between genders (t = 0.029, p = 0.977). (3) Basic motor skills of older children positively predicted the development of attentional stability (β = 0.651, p 0.00). Conclusions/Discussion: Mobile motor skills are significantly better than manipulative motor skills in older children; individual variability in attentional stability is significant, and children with very low scores need focused attention. Mobility and manipulative movement skills are important factors in the development of attentional stability integrated curriculum with a dual motor and cognitive orientation can be constructed
A032: The Development Status, Challenges, and Pathways of the Yancheng Sports School in Jiangsu Province
No full textAs the foundation of China’s youth amateur training system, sports schools have become a cradle for cultivating outstanding sports talents for provincial and national sports teams. Their role and contribution to talent development are of great significance. Yancheng City in Jiangsu Province is home to 10 sports schools, which have produced 400 outstanding reserve sports talents for both Jiangsu and the country since their establishment. These schools rank at a mid-level in terms of development within Jiangsu Province and hold certain representational value for case studies of sports schools across China. Findings: This study, based on the integration of sports and education and the policy context of the 14th Five-Year Plan for National Sports Development, focuses on the 10 sports schools in Yancheng City, Jiangsu Province. The research utilizes methods such as literature review, expert interviews, surveys, and field investigations to conduct an in-depth analysis of the current development status and basic situation of sports schools in Yancheng. It also comprehensively summarizes the challenges and influencing factors affecting these schools. Finally, the study provides a detailed discussion on how to promote the high-quality development of sports schools, improve cultural education, and strengthen the teacher workforce, offering development paths for the future. 1) The proportion of students rating the quality of enrollment as “very good” and “good” is only 7.2% and 16.0%, respectively. 2) In terms of the age structure of coaches, 44% are over 50 years old. Among the coaching staff, only 24% hold senior titles. 3) Only 9.8% of students primarily focus on academics. 4) Among student athletes, 43% plan to take the national sports entrance examination, while 11.3% intend to enter the workforce directly. The training facilities at sports schools in Yancheng generally meet demand, but there is still a shortage of facilities for certain sports. Additionally, schools face limited funding sources, with a lack of support from social capital. Moreover, the talent development goals at grassroots sports schools in Yancheng are influenced by a “gold medal-only” mentality, which leads to the neglect of cultural education for athletes
A083: Effect of Mind-Body Versus Multicomponent Exercise on Active Aging: A 16-Week Intervention Study
No full textDifferent exercise modalities may have distinct effects on active aging. This study aimed to compare the effects of a mind-body exercise program and a multicomponent exercise program on active aging among middle-aged and older adults. Method: A total of 48 participants aged 50–75 years were voluntarily assigned to three groups: a mind-body exercise group (MEG), a multicomponent exercise group (MAEG), and a control group (CG). The intervention lasted 16 weeks, with both exercise groups engaging in bi-weekly 120-minute supervised sessions, while the control group received no exercise intervention. All participants attended weekly online health education sessions. Subjective measures comprised self-reported changes in active aging across four dimensions: health, participation, security, and lifelong learning, measured via a validated active aging questionnaire. Objective measures evaluated physical parameters, including BMI, lung capacity, grip strength, flexibility, balance, and reaction time. Assessments were conducted at baseline(T0), 8 weeks(T8), and 16 weeks(T16). Statistical analyses included one-way ANOVA for baseline comparisons and two-factor repeated measures ANOVA for intervention. Both the MAG and MAEG showed greater improvements in both subjective and objective measures of active aging compared to the CG. Significant time × group interactions were observed in subjective health, participation, and lifelong learning (all p \u3c 0.001), with the MAEG demonstrating greater improvements than the MEG over time. In objective measures, significant interactions were found for BMI, lung capacity, flexibility, and balance (all p \u3c 0.001). The MAEG showed superior BMI reduction and lung capacity improvement compared to the MEG. Both the MAG and MAEG enhanced flexibility and balance, while only the MAEG improved reaction time. No significant changes were observed in grip strength. Conclusions/Discussion: Both single-modality mind-body exercise and multicomponent intervention integrating mind-body practices with aerobic training effectively enhanced active aging outcomes in middle-aged and older adults. However, the multicomponent approach demonstrated superior efficacy, suggesting its heightened potential for promoting comprehensive active aging
A240: Synergistic Effects of Physical-Mental Mixed Fatigue on Badminton Forehand Smash Performance
No full textExisting studies have predominantly examined the isolated effects of physical or cognitive fatigue on athletic performance, yet the synergistic interplay of combined physical-mental fatigue in competitive badminton remains underexplored. This study addresses this gap by investigating how dual-channel fatigue—simultaneously induced through neuromuscular and cognitive demands—impacts the forehand jump smash, a critical offensive technique characterized by high-speed execution and precision. The purpose is to quantify the compound effects of mixed fatigue on smash performance and elucidate underlying neuromuscular-cognitive coupling mechanisms. Method: Twenty-four national-level badminton athletes (20 males, 4 females; age 21.8 ± 1.9 years) participated in a single-factor repeated-measures experiment. A graded neuromuscular-cognitive dual-channel fatigue protocol (baseline, mild, moderate, severe) was implemented, integrating physical tasks (vertical jumps, sprints, court drills) with cognitive stressors (randomized target hitting under time constraints). Multidimensional metrics—subjective fatigue (RPE, VAFS), countermovement jump (CMJ) height, radar-measured smash velocity, and motion-captured accuracy—were synchronized. Data were analyzed using mixed-model ANOVA, linear mixed-effects models, and Pearson correlations to assess fatigue progression and performance outcomes. Progressive fatigue induction led to significant increases in RPE (0 → 7.25) and VAFS (0 → 7.96; both p \u3c 0.001) and a 35.49% decline in CMJ height (41.00 → 27.86 cm, p \u3c 0.001). Smash velocity decreased by 10.6% (198.21 → 177.21 km/h, p \u3c 0.001), and accuracy declined by 46.1% (16.92 → 9.12 points, p \u3c 0.001). Speed-accuracy trade-offs emerged under moderate-to-severe fatigue (r = -0.58 to -0.53, p \u3c 0.01), indicating compromised motor control and decision-making. This study demonstrates that physical-mental mixed fatigue synergistically degrades smash performance beyond additive single-modality effects, highlighting nonlinear interactions between neuromuscular and cognitive systems. These findings contrast with prior studies isolating fatigue types, emphasizing the necessity of dual-channel fatigue monitoring in training and competition. Limitations include sample homogeneity and gender imbalance, which may limit generalizability. Future research should explore dynamic load regulation, sex-specific responses, and real-time neurophysiological monitoring to optimize anti-fatigue strategies and injury prevention
A298: Improving Preschool Teachers\u27 Physical Education Abilities Through Digitalization: Pathways and Strategies for Enhancement
No full textThe digital transformation of preschool physical activities is crucial for improving the quality of physical education in kindergartens, promoting educational outcomes, and supporting national educational development. However, many preschool teachers lack the knowledge and skills required for intelligent teaching, especially in applying artificial intelligence technologies, resulting in superficial and ineffective digital transformation. This issue stems from the insufficient digital teaching abilities of preschool teachers. This study aims to analyze the current state of these abilities, identify influencing factors, and propose practical improvement pathways to support the digital transformation of preschool physical activities. Method: This study employed a questionnaire survey method, adapted from the Survey on Preschool Teachers\u27 Information Technology Application Abilities developed by Yang Zhuanhuan and colleagues. Simple random sampling was used to select 150 teachers from the Fengtai District of Beijing. A Likert 5-point scale was used for responses. The scale, including sub-dimensions, met standards (Cronbach\u27s alpha \u3e 0.8). Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) showed a KMO value of 0.872, with Bartlett\u27s test of sphericity indicating significant correlations among variables (X2 = 1285.36, p \u3c 0.001). Further fit indices showed excellent model fit (CFI = 0.968, TLI = 0.956, RMSEA = 0.043). ANOVA and t-tests revealed significant gender differences in the teaching attitude dimension (p \u3c 0.05), but no differences in the knowledge base dimension based on teaching experience (p \u3e 0.05). The study found that preschool teachers\u27 scores in the knowledge base dimension were significantly higher than in the technology application, instructional design, evaluation, reflection, and organizational management dimensions. 92% of teachers have basic knowledge of digital teaching, and about 70% use multimedia presentations effectively. However, only 15% apply more advanced digital tools. Key challenges include insufficient competence with complex digital tools, a lack of proactive learning, limited theoretical training opportunities, inadequate infrastructure, and limited experience sharing among teachers. To address these issues, the study recommends specialized training tailored to practical needs, increased hands-on training, improved equipment and network facilities, and greater teacher collaboration. Teachers\u27 digital application abilities currently exhibit adequate awareness, but weak practice due to insufficient depth in technology application. To support the intelligent transformation of preschool physical activities, it is essential to enhance teachers\u27 digital teaching abilities through three pathways: resource support, capacity building, and ecosystem development
