Parents play an important role in the development of healthy lifestyle behaviors in their children. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the relationship between parenting style and physical activity participation. A random 100 student's aged range from 13 to 17 years old were selected as respondents of this study. The Physical Activity Questionnaire for Adolescences (PAQ-A) was used as the instrument to measure respondent's general level of physical activity meanwhile the Parenting Style Questionnaire (PSQ) was used to assessed respondent's perceived parenting style of their parents. The results showed that majority of adolescent were involved in moderate level of physical activity and only 29% reported to be very active during physical education class and 40% claimed that they did not active after school hour. Data analysis also showed that 60% of the respondents perceived the parents are using authoritative style, authoritarian style (31%) and permissive style (9%). Finally, the statistical analysis showed that there is a significant relationship between parenting style and physical activity participation thus conclude parenting styles play as a role in the promotion and involvement of physical activity among adolescents.

Outdoor Education (OE) is usually associated with challenging activities and developing skills among students.  It also teaches learning through the interaction with the nature world which helps to educate for environmental appreciation. Is the frequency of involvement can determine the appreciation among its participants?  So, the objectives of this study are to identify the involvement of outdoor activities, its enjoyment of participation and its relationship with nature appreciation among undergraduate students in a higher learning institution in Malaysia. One hundred and sixty-nine (n=169) students who participated in this study were from a Physical and Health Education Program. Results from the study indicated high levels of participation with much pleasure from diverse outdoor activities in water and land based. Pearson’s correlation analysis was performed between each type of water and land-based activity with nature appreciation. Analyses were found to have significant relation of several activities with nature appreciation. Findings indicated a significant but weak relationship between the overall activities and nature appreciation among the students. It was suggested that integrating together new area of studies related to mother nature should be incorporated during the activities.

The implications of online learning versus face-to-face learning have been discussed for several years in higher education. Hence, this study's objective was to assess the learning satisfaction towards Online Distance Learning (ODL) and its relationship with ODL readiness in the context of Physical Education setting. This quantitative research adopted an online survey method that measure the ODL readiness and learning satisfaction among 172 Physical and Health Education students who are practicing ODL due to Corona Virus Disease (COVID-19) pandemic. The results indicate that ODL readiness is more likely to affect the learning satisfaction among students while having ODL session and it led to low satisfaction level in learning. The results of learning satisfaction level showed a small effect in accordance to gender; male students are anticipated to have slightly higher than female students due to dissimilarity of skill possessed. On this basis, it is recommended the ODL readiness among students should be considered when performing ODL classes in order to achieve high learning satisfaction towards ODL.

One of the benefits from students exchange program is to learn a foreign language. In the Faculty of Sports Science, UNNES, most students going abroad all-around Southeast Asia which English is the medium of instruction between countries. Thus, the exchange program were likely helped to motivate them to learn English. However, limited studies have discussed the English learning motivation of students who have been studying abroad. This study aims to explain the students’ motivation to learn English after being exposed to the exchange experience. The study explains their motivation in two domains: intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. It is descriptive quantitative research with a set of questionnaires as the primary source of data supported by interviews as the secondary data. The subjects of this study are 37 students from 4 majors; sports science (12), public health (11), physical education (7), and coaching education (7) which consisted of 20 females and 17 males, under the Faculty of Sports Science, UNNES who experienced the exchange programs between 2018-2019. The study found that personal belief on the importance of English to upgrade self-capacity, followed by practical practice of independent study to upgrade English performance, are the intrinsic motivational factors embraced by the exchange students. Furthermore, the exchange students’ view of the importance of English for their future career and the positive opinion from their environment on the people who can speak English have extrinsically motivated them to learn English. Future study needs to involve bigger participants by comparing those exchange and non-exchange students and examine the role of motivation toward the student's learning performance.

Long distance running (LDR) is an exercise that has a relatively heavy load which can cause Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS) and increase Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) levels. Xanthine, one derivate of ROS will increase 10 times during aerobic activity which is metabolized to Uric Acid (mg/dL) (UA). Foam rolling (FR) is used for the recovery process. This study aims to determine the effect of long distance running on changes in UA levels and the effect of FR as an active recovery against changes in UA levels. This was a quasi-experiment study using a purposive sampling design, one-group repeated measure design of a sample population of young healthy males (17-25 years). The sample consisted of 10 trained young males in Semarang. The average value of UA before intervention was 4.43 mg/dL ± 0.51. In 90 minutes, it was 5.90 mg/dL ± 0.52, in 120 minutes was 5.71 mg/dL ± 0.72 and at 24 hours after intervention was 6.1 mg/dL ± 0.57. LDR has been shown to increase UA levels. FR which is done only once has not been able to reduce UA levels. The percentage of occurrence of post-LDR DOMS occurred at 24 hours.
