AREAS OF EXPERTISE - RESEARCH Faculty teaching and research interests touch on biomechanical, historical, neuromotor, pedagogical, philosophical, physiological, psychological, and sociocultural perspectives of human movement, physical activity, and exercise. Adapted Physical Activity Researchers in this area study issues related to children’s and adults’ engagement and inclusion in physical activity, recreation, and sport settings. Behavioral Medicine Behavioral medicine combines concepts from medicine and psychology to examine relations between physical activity and health. Some of our researchers in this area also examine links between sedentary behavior and health outcomes. Coaching & Sport Psychology Researchers in this area study participation and performance in sport (from youth sport to elite sport). Neuromuscular Researchers in this area examine human movement from neurological and neuromuscular perspectives in a range of complex environments among members of different populations. Sociocultural The sociocultural area includes a diverse group of researchers who study sociological concepts across a range of human movement contexts, including sport, physical activity, and recreation. This area also includes scholars who study sport, recreation, and public history. Recreation, Sport & Tourism Our researchers in this group use a variety of disciplinary perspectives to study issues including sport tourism, outdoor recreation, conservation, and leisure behaviour. Physiology Our exercise physiologists examine mechanisms associated with physical activity in a range of different populations, including but not limited to athletes, pregnant women, and individuals in physically de- manding professions (e.g., firefighters).
