Term
4 types of measurement error
Definition

1) lack of agreeement among scoreres

2) failure of measurement consistancy

3) failure of tester to follow standardized testing

4) lack of consistant performance by individual tested

Term
validity
Definition
whether or not a test is relevent and applicable to a particular situation
Term
3 types of validity
Definition

1) content validity

2) criterion related validity

3) construct validity

Term
content validity
Definition
addresses whether the compnents of the measurement measure what they are supposed to
Term
criterion related validity
Definition
based on a comparison between your measurement and an already accepted standard
Term
construct validity
Definition
the ability to deduce information from observable measurements
Term
3 types of reliabilty
Definition

1) stability

2) internal consistancy

3) precision

Term
stability
Definition
day to day consistancy of scores
Term
internal consistancy
Definition
consistancy of measures taken in the same experimental session measured by the same test taker
Term
precision
Definition

repeatability of a measurement; consistant measure or performance by the instrument or tester over repeated measurements

 

(ex: hit same spot consistantly)

Term
accuracy
Definition

how close is the measurement to the true (or desired) value

 

(ex: hit what aiming for)

Term
objectivity
Definition
the degree to which different testers can achieve the same scores on the same subjects
Term
relevance
Definition
application or pertinence of a measurement to a study
Term
title
Definition
usually short and to the point
Term
author
Definition
first author listed wrote the article, last author is usually the senior author
Term
abstract
Definition
breif summary of the article. Will include background, methods, results, conclusion, and sometimes 'key words'
Term
introduction
Definition
provides background such as what other studies have found, why they are doing the study, states a purpose for the study and presents a hypothesis
Term
methods
Definition
subject description, techniques used to collect the data, equations that were needed, statistical analysis used
Term
results
Definition
present all data collected with statistical comparisions that allow them to answer the research question
Term
discussion
Definition
explains what the data means and how it answers the research  question, compares what was found to previous studies, discusses any limitations to the study and presents a summary or conclusion
Term
acknowledgement
Definition
thanks those involved in conducting and reporting the experiment and mentions funding sources
Term
references
Definition
list of all articles and resources used in the development of the article
Term
work
Definition

(mass) x (gravity) x (distance)

 

measured in newton meters (Nm)

mass = kg

gravity = m/s^2

distance = m

Term
strength
Definition

maximum amount of weight a person can lift for one repetition

 

RM or rep max

Term
power
Definition
time it takes a person to move a load through a certain distance
Term
2 kinds of power
Definition

1) absolute power

2) realative power

Term
absolute power
Definition

how long it takes a person to move a load through a certain distance

 

measured in watts(W)

 

[(mass) x (gravity) x (distance)]/[time]

or

work/time

 

time = sec

Term
relative power
Definition

mass or weight dependent power

 

measured in watts(W)

 

 

[(mass) x (gravity) x (distance)] / [time] / [weight]

or

work / time / weight

or

absolute power / weight

Term
endurance
Definition

the ability of the muscle to maintain contraction over a period of time

or

rhythmically contract over and over

Term
fatigue index
Definition
rate of fatigue onset; the higher FI number, the greater the rate of fatigue
Term
max voluntary contraction (MVC)
Definition
1005 isometric-static contraction
Term
static contraction
Definition
muscular contraction without range-of-motion; no movement occurs (isometric)
Term
rhythmic contraction
Definition
dynamic muscular contraction, with no movement (isotonic)
Term
1 in = ? cm
Definition
2.54cm
Term
1 cm = ? m
Definition
0.01m
Term
1 kg = ? lb
Definition
2.2 lb
Term
Nm = ? kgm/sec
Definition
1 kgm/sec
Term
1 watt = ? Nm/sec
Definition
1 Nm/sec
Term
Heart Rate (HR)
Definition

number of times the heart beats in one minute

 

measured in BPM

Term
stroke volume (SV)
Definition

the volume of blood ejected from the heart per contraction

 

measured in ml per beat

Term
cardiac output (Q)
Definition

the product of heart rate and stroke volume

 

Q = HR x SV

 

measured in L/min

Term
total peripheral resistance (TPR)
Definition
resistance provided by the systemic blood vessels ( can be dialated or constricted)
Term
blood pressure (BP)
Definition

represents the force against which the heart must pump; higher BP = more work for heart and increased risk of long term heart trouble

 

BP = Q x TPR  or  BP = HR x SV x TPR

Term
systolic blood pressure
Definition

BP during heart contraction

 

measured in mmHg

Term
diastolic blood pressure
Definition

BP during heart relaxation between contractions

 

measured in mmHg

Term
normal blood pressure values
Definition
<120 / <80
Term
prehypertension blood pressure values
Definition
120-139 / 80-89
Term
hypertension blood pressure values
Definition
≥140/ ≥90
Term
P wave
Definition

atrial depolarization

 

first part of ECG

Term
QRS complex
Definition

ventricular depolarization

 

spike in ECG

Term
T wave
Definition

ventricular repolarization

 

last part of ECG

Term
VO2 max
Definition

the maximum amount of oxygen consumed per minute during large muscle mass exercise

 

training can increase this up to 30%

Term
direct measurement
Definition

direct measure of the amount of oxygen utilized

 

no suitable to everyone

Term
indirect measurement
Definition

utilized regression equations, which can estimate VO2 max through calculations incorporating heart rate, cardiac output, and work rate

 

suitable to everyone

Term
fick equation
Definition
VO2 = Q x (a - vO2)
Term
