This presents the qualiTePe erasmus+ framework
Regular physical activity (PA) in youth has mental and social health outcomes (Ekelund, 2016; Biddle, 2019). Available data also suggest that the level of PA in youth predicts PA in adulthood (Telama, 2014; Varma, 2017). However, international studies (Aubert et al, 2018) have shown that the majority of young people do not achieve the PA levels rec...
Background

En envisageant une approche du temps-géographique, cet article présente une méthodologie c...
Introduction
The health crisis and resulting lockdowns are life events which disrupt physical activity (PA) lifestyles for adolescents (Gropper, 2020), a population whose PA levels are already problematic (Allender, 2008). Whilst no other studies have used objective measurements to quantify the loss of PA in youth following lockdowns (Lopez-Valenci...
Physical literacy is considered as the foundation to build physically active citizens on a long-term basis (Whitehead 2010). Nevertheless, its evaluation is still a complex issue and assessment tools are still needed for scientific and pedagogical issues. The aim of this study is to propose different steps for designing and validating the first ass...

Many studies have investigated the ecology of wolf populations of Eurasia, showing that although wolves are mostly opportunistic in seeking meso-large enough mammalian prey, they can also be selective, depending on local availability of prey and their population biomass. Yet prey preferences of the wolf have been poorly evaluated in situations of c...
We conducted a 15-year study (1999–2014) of wolf denning behavior in Naliboki Forest, Belarus, to determine the extent to which some external factors (rain, mosquitoes, human disturbances) and litter size are negatively correlated with pup survival until autumn.
Aims and Methods
We propose a standard protocol at the landscape to continental scale for examining to what extent the range of ecological conditions found in temperate latitudes explains the variations in climber species richness and traits. The protocol was tested in forests of the two Americas. The data set included 151 climber species. We selec...

This study proposes a new qualitative typology that can be used to classify learners treading water into different skill-based categories. To establish the typology, 38 participants were vide-otaped while treading water and their movement patterns were qualitatively analyzed by two experienced biomechanists. 13 sport science students were then aske...
This study sought to provide guidelines for implementing typology-based qualitative analysis of human movement patterns. Fifteen participant-analysts were instructed how to classify treading water behaviours into eight different categories using a training set of videos. They were later provided with two additional sets of videos called validation,...
Abstract A classification system of treading water based on a conceptual typology was first established and then verified empirically. The typology was established on two concepts: the nature of the forces created within the water and the type of inter-limb coordination used. Thirty-eight participants were videotaped while treading water. Multivari...
The increasing fragmentation of forest habitats and the omnipresence of cultivars potentially threaten the genetic integrity of the European wild apple (Malus sylvestris (L.) Mill). However, the conservation status of this species remains unclear in Europe, other than in Belgium and the Czech Republic, where it has been declared an endangered speci...
