Purpose: As the latest research shows, psychomotor development and motor learning of deaf children is garnering a great deal of attention from scientists. Effectively correcting the psychomotor development of hearing-impaired kids requires a deep understanding of the disorders, structures, depth, and the children’s potential motor learning capabilities. We believe this understanding can be reached with the Bernstein approach. However, we were able to find only a handful of studies on psychomotor development of hearing-impaired children from the point of view of the theory of how motor skills are formed. Based on this theory, the purpose of this study was to create a diagnostic program that can evaluate and analyze psychomotor disorders and uncover their mechanism in hearing impaired kids compared to their peers with normal hearing. Methods: The study included 54 children from primary schools in Lviv with normal hearing and 94 primary school children with hearing loss from the Lviv Specialized Boarding School named after Maria Pokrova №101 and the Zhovkiv Training and Rehabilitation Center “Zlagoda” (51 children with hearing loss and 43 deaf children). The research sample we chose was random and the children ranged in age from 7-8 years old. To study a single motor skill based on the involvement of multiple levels of central nervous system control, the jump model was chosen. The study consisted of 10 tests, each of which was rated on a 5point scale. Gathered and analysed data were used for the quantitative method. Result: It was established that children with hearing loss had psychomotor retardation on all motor skill levels compared to their peers with normal hearing. Hearing impaired children had a low level of static and dynamic coordination, speed of movement, and motor memory. The lowest level of development was purposeful movement. Conclusions: We identified specific psychomotor disorders in primary school children with hearing loss compared to their peers with normal hearing on all levels of motor skill formation, and found correlations between the overall assessment of hearing impaired children and the studied components by level of movement construction: for any motor activity, there is a primary level, which forms the foundation of the movement and all other levels that are activated when performing the movement. The aspects of sensory-motor functions in primary school children with hearing loss depend on the level of hearing loss and consist of an absence of coordination on multiple levels of movement construction.
The latest studies have shown that the parameters of physical development of children with hearing loss are attracting the attention of the scientific community. However, there are few studies that investigate changes in the physical condition of deaf children after improving physical education. The purpose of this work is to study the physical condition of deaf primary school-age children and develop a corrective program using methods of physical education. The study included 72 deaf children (to the experimental nEG=37 and the control group nCG=35) and 28 primary school-age children with normal hearing. The choice of research sample was random and the age of the children ranged from 6-10 years old. The physical condition of the schoolchildren was determined using a set of medical and biological methods: blood pressure measurement, heart rate calculation according to the electrocardiogram R-R interval, spirometry, electrocardiography, echocardiography, physical work capacity (PWC150) test, measurement of catecholamines using E. Matlina’s method, and anthropometry. The experimental physical education program consisted of a set of physical, breathing and posture exercises as well as physical games. Games were divided by complexity, level of perception, physical intensity, and impact on the body. It was determined that deafness negatively affects anthropometric indicators, the respiratory system, and the functional condition of the sympathoadrenal system, but does not affect the morpho-functional values of cardiac performance in primary school-age children. The study proves the effectiveness of adopting exercise programs based on physical games as a means of correcting the physical condition of deaf children. The study confirmed that the implementation of exercise programs for the correction of the physical condition of deaf primary school-age children by means of physical education based on physical games in the daily routine of special boarding schools has a positive effect on the children’s respiratory, cardiovascular and sympathoadrenal systems.
The purpose of the study is to examine the impact of rehabilitation fitness on the physical condition of women with musculoskeletal disorders. Materials and methods. The study was held on the basis of the fitness club "LIGA" in Lviv and was attended by 65 women of the first mature age with musculoskeletal disorders. The methods used were: theoretical analysis and generalization of data from scientific and methodological literature; pedagogical observation; sociological method; pedagogical testing; pedagogical experiment; medical and biological methods; methods of mathematical statistics. Results and discussion. As the survey showed female fitness club visitors pay attention to the study of various aspects of leading a healthy lifestyle. The main sources of informing women about the need for health-improving classes for most women (47.2%) were friends and 27.0% of people received information from the Internet. Strength fitness is preferred by 62.0% of people. 22.3% of women preferred cyclic kinds of physical activities. Dance fitness programs attract 8.9% of respondents. Further research was aimed at studying the impact of rehabilitative fitness classes on women's health. 21 women who had osteochondrosis and consented to participate in the study were involved in the pedagogical experiment. The program of rehabilitation fitness classes was developed taking into account the recommendations of specialists and was aimed at restoring the functional state of the spine and preventing recurrence of the disease. In addition, women were offered individual recommendations for daily water intake, a balanced diet and daily routine. Conclusion. It was found that 68.8% of women surveyed are interested both in information about general health and health promotion and leisure activities; 22.6% of women are interested in the features of certain types of health activities; 12.9% of people would like to learn about the possibilities of non-traditional remedies and 1.1% are not interested in healthy living. It is determined that after the use of rehabilitation fitness classes the number of persons with below average level decreased by 19.1%; the number of women with an average level of physical condition increased by 23.8% and the number of persons with above-average level increased by 4.8%. However, women with low and high level of physical condition were not detected. It was found that the percentage of fat in women before the pedagogical experiment was 22.98 ± 6.37%, while after three months of training its rate was 20.24 ± 5.79%. There was an improvement of this indicator by 11.9%. In terms of weight, it decreased by 2.13 kg
The article defines the prerequisites for the implementation of appropriate corrections in the training of shooters based on the introduced changes to the rules of competitive activity in bullet shooting. The chronology of the appearance of changes is also given, the main additions that lead to the need to use modern approaches, methods and tools in the training of air rifle shooters are described. It has been established that the change in competition rules contributes to the increase in the spectacle of competitions, the growth of competition between athletes, the growth of requirements for the training of shooters, in particular, the ability to think tactically in a new way. It was revealed that during the evolution of the rules of the competition, the format of the finals was changed, there was a transition to the Olympic elimination system, the number of shots in the finals was increased, the time for each shot or series was reduced, etc. The need for improvement of various aspects of training of shooters, which is caused by constant changes in the rules of competitions, has been identified. In particular, updating the methodology of training athletes, which involves increasing the volume of theoretical and practical knowledge and skills. A number of scientists devoted their works to highlighting the rules of competitions, but the analysis of changes and their impact on the training of athletes is not sufficient, which actualizes our research. Therefore, changing the rules of sports competitions, in the direction of complicating the conditions for shooting exercises, requires the search for ways to improve various aspects of shooter training, in particular, tactical, technical, etc.
