Thank you for always loving me unconditionally and instilling within me the values of hard work and dedication. Before embarking on my journey to Iowa State University, I had to cope with the decision not to see you as often, and that was probably the hardest decision of my life. I could imagine how difficult it was to take care of four children. I vividly recall times when you would spend a whole day of your busy lives making sure everyone completed their science fair project due that week. I want you to know that all the sacrifices you made for us were not in vain. Incredibly, we have all grown up and become adults with promising careers and/or graduate degrees. Our success is a testament to all the hours of hard work you put into raising us and making sure we believed in our abilities to succeed. Thank you for teaching me the value of education and life-long learning. Without you, I would not be where I am today. I will forever be grateful and indebted to you. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF FIGURES ........................................................................................................................ v LIST OF TABLES ......................................................................................................................... vi ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS .......................................................................................................... vii ABSTRACT ................................................................................................................................. viii CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION ..................................................................................................... 1 1.1 Background and Motivation ................................................................................................. 1 1.2 Research Problem ................................................................................................................. 2 1.3 Proposed Solution ................................................................................................................. 3 1.4 Organization of Thesis .......................................................................................................... 3 CHAPTER II LITERATURE REVIEW ........................................................................................ 5 2.1 Introduction ........................................................................................................................... 5 2.2 Data Mining and its Role in Sports Predictive Modeling ..................................................... 5 2.2.1 Data Mining Concept ..................................................................................................... 5 2.2.2 Sports Predictive Modeling............................................................................................ 7 2.3 Data Mining Techniques Applied to Basketball Predictive Modeling ................................. 7 2.3.1 Naïve Bayes Classifier ................................................................................................... 7 2.3.2 Logistic Regression ........................................................................................................ 9 2.3.3 Neural Networks .......................................................................................................... 12 2.3.4 Review of Bayesian Networks Applied to Sports ........................................................ 14 2.3.5 Conclusion and Research Gap ..................................................................................... 16 CHAPTER III BAYESIAN NETWORK DETAILS AND JUSTIFICATION ............................ 18 3.1 Introduction to Bayesian Networks ................................................................................ 18 3.2 The Importance of the Directed Acyclic Graph Structure .............................................. 18 3.3 Bayesian Network Learning ........................................................................................... 19 3.4 Why a Bayesian Network?

  • EXPLOSIVE POWER in BASKETBALL PLAYERS UDC 796.015.332 Nikola Aksović, Miodrag Kocić, Dragana Berić, Saša Bubanj
    FACTA UNIVERSITATIS Series: Physical Education and Sport, Vol. 18, No 1, 2020, pp. 119 - 134 https://doi.org/10.22190/FUPES200119011A Review article EXPLOSIVE POWER IN BASKETBALL PLAYERS UDC 796.015.332 Nikola Aksović, Miodrag Kocić, Dragana Berić, Saša Bubanj Faculty of Sport and Physical Education, University of Niš, Niš, Serbia Abstract. Explosive power in basketball is manifested through various variants of jumps, starting acceleration, sudden changes in direction, deceleration, sudden stops and passing. The aim of this research is to identify and sum up the relevant literature published in the period from 2000 to 2019, focusing on the explosive power of basketball players, and to explain relations between training programs and explosive power development. The results confirmed that explosive power is a significant characteristic of professional basketball players and one of the most important factors for achieving top results. The results show that in spite of the inborn coefficient, the development of explosive power can be realized through planned, rational and well- organized training. A positive correlation was determined between explosive power and running at short distances, jumps and throwing, as well as between explosive power and lean body mass in basketball players of different ages. It is necessary to give greater attention to the training of explosive power, because it is an effective means that contributes to the efficiency of the basketball player. Key words: Basketball, Explosive strength, Vertical Jump, Speed, Agility INTRODUCTION Basketball is a high-intensity team sport with alternative phrases of high load, and success in basketball requires technical, tactical and physical preparation. In basketball, explosive power is manifested through various variants of jumps, starting acceleration, sudden changes in direction of movement, deceleration, sudden stops and passing.

  • Social Interaction and Peer Pressure on Desired Healthy Lifestyle and Sport Motivation Among the Generation Y
    Social Interaction and Peer Pressure on Desired Healthy Lifestyle and Sport Motivation among the Generation Y Widjojo Suprapto1, Dhyah Harjanti1, and Bayu Dharma Setiawan1 1Business Management Program, Petra Christian University, Surabayat, Indonesia [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Keywords: Generation Y, sport motivation, healthy lifestyle, sport community social interaction, peer pressure. Abstract: The Generation Y is considered as the most “health conscious generation” due to their extraordinary exposures to health information now readily available online via the internet. This health conscious mindset creates plenty business opportunities, from sport apparels to sport equipment and healthy food. Meanwhile, the Generation Y is seeking to balance lifestyle and work, with more emphasis on lifestyle. This generation is also craving for relationship with families and friends. Yet, this generation has the lifestyle habits that are damaging their health as they become more addicted to social media platforms and less physically active. Therefore, this research aims to investigate the influence of sport community social interaction and peer pressure on healthy lifestyle and sport motivation among the Generation Y. This research is using a quantitative method. The data are collected from 120 respondents who are selected using the purposive sampling. The data are analyzed with a smartPLS software. The results show that sport community social interaction and peer pressure have a positive significant influence on healthy lifestyle, and healthy lifestyle has a positive significant influence on sport motivation among the Generation Y. 1 INTRODUCTION generation that allows every child to get a medal or praise, leaving no one behind (Meier & Crocker, Generation Y, also known as the Millennial 2010).

Charles University, Faculty of Social Sciences, Institute of Economic Studies, Prague, 2021. Thesis supervisor PhDr. Radek Janhuba, M.A., Ph.D.. Length of the Thesis: 69 503 characters Abstract Beach volleyball is a fast-growing modern sport that is struggling with popularity despite being one of the most attractive-to-watch sports when directly compared to others at the Olympics. This thesis studies what drives fans’ demand for watching professional beach volleyball. We use viewership data from YouTube live streaming of FIVB World Tour event – 2021 Katara Cup. In this thesis, we investigate the effect of uncertainty of outcome and both long and short-term determinants of team quality on fans’ behaviour. The uncertainty is proxied by difference in odds, the long-term team quality is determined by teams’ tournament seedings and short-term quality by recent winning records.

  • Ego and Self in Gestalt Theory “The Genesis of an Ego...”
    GESTALT THEORY, DOI 10.2478/gth-2021-0006 © 2020 (ISSN 2519-5808); Vol. 43, No. 1, 47–68 Original Contributions - Originalbeiträge Gerhard Stemberger1 Ego and Self in Gestalt Theory “The genesis of an Ego...” “… the genesis of an Ego is one of the strangest and most remarkable of phenomena which, it would appear, is also controlled by whole-processes”, Max Wertheimer, the founder of Gestalt theory, once observed (Wertheimer, 1924 in 1944, 90). And indeed, hardly anyone ponders in daily life or pays attention to in other ways, whether or not there might be such a thing as an ego. In our lives it is just there either a matter of course, or as an implicit point of reference for the spatial coordinates “in front of me,” “next to me,” “behind me”—or sometimes it is not there at all. There are situations in which the ego is “everything”—where about in the raging pain, hardly another world exists besides the ego. There are situations where the ego spatially expands and subsumes otherwise in separated areas of the environ- ment, such as the clothing, the car, sporting equipment, and again other situa- tions in which it involuntarily or voluntarily dwindles away, possibly shrinks to a small point, or in extreme cases, becomes disembodied. At times the ego is the center of its world, then again marginal, sometimes it functions as a member of a larger whole, such as in a team sport or in a well-coordinated working group, then again there are situations where another person serves as an “extension” of one’s will, or even as an extension of one’s ego.2 Everyday experience already shows that the ego is not a solid, more or less steady “object,” but something very mutable in many ways.

Using an ethnographic and autoethnographic approach, the research examines how mechanisms of transference, embedded in the habitus and homogeneity between valorizing field structures, permit individuals to utilize aggregated forms of cultural and subcultural capital sculpted by the field of golf. Through participant observation, interviews, journals, and over two years of exhaustive golf performance, both in the Northeast of England and further abroad, the research illustrates how narratives of soft skills and emotional capital shape the dispositions of individuals acquired, developed, and complemented by significant secondary socialization. This research contributes to the existing consumer research and consumer culture theory by extending understandings and conceptualisations of marketplace cultures, particularly subcultures of sport, and how cultural resources and distinctive practices previously thought to be context- dependent might be transferred.

  • Testing the Effects of a Preceding Self-Control Task on Decision Making in Soccer Refereeing
    Testing the effects of a preceding self-control task on decision making in soccer refereeing 1 Chris Englert1*†, Anna Dziuba2, Geoffrey Schweizer3† 2 1Institute of Education, Department of Educational Psychology, University of Bern, Bern, 3 Switzerland 4 2Institute of Sports and Sports Science, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Karlsruhe, Germany 5 3Institute of Sports Sciences, Department of Sports Psychology, Heidelberg University, Heidelberg, 6 Germany 7 * Correspondence: [email protected] 8 †These authors have contributed equally to this work 9 1 Abstract 10 The present study tested the assumption that the momentary level of self-control strength affects the 11 accuracy rates in a sports-related judgement and decision-making task. A total of N = 27 participants 12 rated the veracity of 28 video-taped statements of soccer players who were interviewed by a non- 13 visible referee after a critical game-related situation. In half of the videos, the players were lying and 14 in the other half they were telling the truth. Participants were tested twice: once with temporarily 15 depleted self-control strength and once with temporarily available self-control strength (order 16 counterbalanced; measurements separated by exactly seven days). Self-control strength was 17 experimentally manipulated with the Stroop task. In line with two-process models of information 18 processing, we hypothesized that under ego depletion, information is processed in a rather heuristic 19 manner, leading to lower accuracy rates. Contrary to our expectations, the level of temporarily 20 available self-control strength did not have an effect on accuracy rates. Limitations and implications 21 for future research endeavors are discussed.
