“…Results regarding the influence of sex on motor performance are inconclusive, as some studies have found differences while others have not [23,34,42,43]. In this study, girls were reported to outperform boys in fine motor activities, but to participate less in gross motor activities, which is an often-described outcome in literature [23,[44][45][46][47][48].…”

Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) is one of the most prevalent neurodevelopmental disorders in school-aged children, with major consequences in psychosocial and physical health. Adequate identification of this disorder is necessary to prompt effective interventions. The aims of this study were to develop the Spanish adjusted reference norms for the DCDDaily-Q and to test the correlation and agreement between the Spanish versions of the DCDDaily-Q (DCDDaily-Q-ES) and the Developmental Coordination Disorder Questionnaire (DCDQ-ES), two reliable instruments to assess motor performance and DCD. Clinically relevant percentiles were calculated for the DCDDaily-Q-ES using a representative sample of Spanish children aged 5 to 10 years (n = 356; M = 7.3 years, SD = 1.8; boys = 50%). Pearson’s correlation coefficient and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) were used to determine correlation and agreement between questionnaires, respectively. A moderate and significant correlation and agreement between DCDDaily-Q-ES and DCDQ-ES was found (r = 0.406; ICC = 0.381; p < 0.001). Differences in daily participation and performance were found between age groups, but not between boys and girls. Spanish age-adjusted percentiles and cutoff scores for DCDDaily-Q-ES are provided. This study offers further validation and relevant information regarding assessment of DCD and has practical implications for clinical practice and research.

“…Por otra parte, los hombres son los que más asisten a estos establecimientos algo que se contradice con estudios previos que demuestran que el sexo femenino es más propenso a tener una actividad deportiva más diversa (Alvariñas-Villaverde, López-Villar, Fernández-Villarino, & Alvarez-Esteban, 2017). Esta variedad podría sugerirle a los emprendedores que amplíen sus ofertas orientadas tanto a circunscribir personas con discapacidad, necesidades de inclusión social, como a las mujeres.…”

El objetivo del estudio es analizar el estado actual de los emprendimientos deportivos de la subregión Sabana del Departamento de Sucre, Colombia. El año promedio de creación de los emprendimientos es 2016, administrados por hombres de 27- 56 años. Se estudiaron dos muestras, 900 clientes y 64 emprendedores deportivos. La metodología consiste en una investigación aplicada, con intervención en las comunidades, para lo cual se emplean métodos teóricos, empíricos y estadísticos. El diagnóstico inicial permite un análisis comparativo desde la percepción de clientes y emprendedores, a partir de las variables comportamiento, oferta y percepción sobre los emprendimientos deportivos. El procesamiento de datos es realizado mediante pruebas de análisis factorial para comprobar la unidimensionalidad de las variables, un análisis ANOVA para comprobar las hipótesis planteadas y un análisis regresión lineal de clientes para establecer el modelo de emprendimiento deportivo para la región estudiada. En los resultados se obtuvo que la calidad del servicio se relaciona lineal y positivamente con la eficiencia del servicio y el ambiente laboral, que existen diferencias entre la percepción del cliente y el emprendedor sobre la actividad física, en ese sentido, según el cliente percibe el servicio deportivo así es su comportamiento. Además, que la percepción que el emprendedor tienen sobre el servicio está condicionando su oferta y no las necesidades del cliente en la práctica de actividad física. El impacto de los resultados radica en el nuevo conocimiento que brinda para la sociedad en función de su actual aplicación desde la óptica del practicante. Abstract: The objective of the study is to analyze the current state of sporting enterprises in the Sabana subregion of the Department of Sucre, Colombia. Two samples were studies: 900 clients and 64 sports entrepreneurs. The average year of enterprise foundation is 2016, run by males aged 27-56. The methodology consists of applied research, with intervention in the communities, for which theoretical, empirical and statistical methods are used. The initial diagnosis allows a comparative analysis based on the perception of clients and entrepreneurs, the behavior, supply and perception on sporting ventures. Data processing was performed through factorial tests to check the unidimensionality of the variables, an ANOVA analysis to check the hypotheses, and a linear regression analysis of clients to establish the model of sports entrepreneurship for the region studied. The results showed that the quality of the service is linearly and positively related to the efficiency of the service and the work environment demonstrating differences between the perception of the client and the entrepreneur about physical activity. In this sense, client's behavior as a result of the service quality. In addition, entrepreneur’s perception about his services effects his offer; client’s needs regarding PA are not considered. The impact of the results lies in the new knowledge it provides for society based on its current application from the perspective of the practitioner.

“…Breaking gender norms in sports can lead to judgment of the athlete based not on their athletic competence, but instead on the conflicting nature between their gender and their sport and what this may indicate about them and their sexuality [31,32]. Negative responses to nontraditional athletes may discourage some individuals from competing in sports or athletic activities, for fear that they would be judged or ostracized in similar ways for deviating from accepted norms.…”

The sport sector functions as a site of health-promotion by encouraging and enabling individuals to invest in their health and giving them tools to do so. This investment is often initiated by, or altered by, role modeling, or seeing other individuals engaging in sport. This could include family or peers but could also include depictions of sport in popular media. Inclusive role-modeling could subsequently encourage more sport participation, thus expanding access to health benefits that arise from sport. However, stereotypical depictions of sports role models could make sports seem like a more exclusive space and discourage participation. We examine a case study of a prominent athletic brand and their advertising to examine the ways they expand or reify stereotypes of gender in sport. Through a qualitative content analysis of 131 commercials released by Nike in the past decade, we explore whether their stated goals of being a socially progressive company extend to genuinely diverse and inclusive portrayals of gender in their commercials. Our results indicate that Nike commercials continue to treat sports as a predominantly and stereotypically masculine realm, therefore marginalizing athletes who are female, who do not fit traditional gender binaries, or who do not display traditionally masculine qualities. We also find that the bulk of athletes portrayed by Nike are those who adhere to gender stereotypes. Despite their purported goal of encouraging individuals to participate in sports, Nike’s promotion of gendered sport behaviors may be having an opposite effect for some consumers by discouraging sports participation for those who do not align with the gendered behavior Nike promotes. The stereotyped role modeling of the sport sector portrayed in a majority of Nike commercials could dissuade already marginalized individuals from participating in the health-promoting behaviors available through sport.
