Abstract

The porpose of this research was to study and compare the effects of plyometric training programs along with weight training on the power and strength of the leg muscles, and to study the relationship between leg muscle power and leg muscle strength. The sample was male rowing athletes affiliated with the National Sport University Chiang Mai Campus. 20 people, divided into experimental and control groups. The research instrument is a plyometric training program coupled with weight training that affects the power and strength of the leg muscles of rowing athletes and the leg muscle power test instrument and the leg muscle strength tester. Perform data analysis by averaging standard deviations. Iterative one-way analysis of variance Statistics are tested in two groups independently and correlation analysis is performed. The results of the research were as follows:

The effects of plyometric training programs coupled with weight training between experimental and control groups It was found that the leg muscle power test results of the experimental group. After weeks 4, 6 and 8 the average was 2333.30, 2540.90, and 2723.30 watts, respectively. Leg muscle strength test results in the experimental group After weeks 4, 6 and 8 the average was 125.90, 136.60 and 141.15 kilograms, respectively.
The results of the comparison of leg muscle power and leg muscle strength between the experimental and control groups It was found that there was no difference between the experimental and control groups before training. After weeks 4, 6 and 8 there was a statistically significant difference between the experimental and control groups at .01, with leg muscle power test statistic values of 2.825, 3.951, and 5.975, respectively, and leg muscle strength test statistics of 3.453, 6.403, and 7.736, respectively.
Correlation analysis using Pearson correlation coefficient to test the relationship between leg muscle power and leg muscle strength in the experimental group. After week 4 training, there was a significant correlation at .05 with a correlation coefficient of 0.690, after week 6 training there was a significant correlation at .05 with a correlation coefficient of 0.673, and after week 8 training there was a statistically insignificant correlation, respectively.

Keywords: leg muscle power, leg muscle strength, leg muscle power relationship, leg muscle strength and leg muscle strength

FACTORS AFFECTING ON SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT BEHAVIORS OF HOUSEHOLD IN NONGMAIDAENG SUB-DISTRICT, MUANG DISTRICT, CHON BURI PROVINCE

2024-09-17T09:30:47+07:00

This study aimed to investigate factors influencing solid waste management behaviors of households in Nongmaidaeng Sub-district, Muang District, Chonburi Province. The data was collected from 168 samples using the questionnaires, which were validated the content validity (0.66) and reliability coefficients (0.87) by three experts. The descriptive statistical tools and Pearson correlation coefficient were employed to analyze the data. The findings showed the overall moderate level of solid waste management behaviors among the participants. The correlation analysis between various factors and solid waste management behaviors indicated that the personal and household factors such as gender, age, education, and household size did not show significant relationship with the management behaviors. However, predisposing factors, specifically perceptions about solid waste management revealed a positive correlation (r = 0.166), while attitude did not have a relationship with the behaviors. Additionally, the enabling factor, referred to the waste management supporting system, and reinforcing factors, including perceptions of news about solid waste management and participation in solid waste management, exhibited a significant positive correlation with the solid waste management behaviors (r = 0.456, r = 0.438, respectively).

A health risk assessment by direct reading measurement for formaldehyde exposure among gross anatomy staff

2024-05-27T14:39:44+07:00

Formaldehyde is a widely used hazardous chemical, despite its potential risks to human health and classification as a carcinogen. This research assesses health risks from exposure to formaldehyde among gross anatomy staff during four laboratory processes. Data was gathered by interview, direct-reading formaldehyde concentration measurement, and indoor air quality monitors. Results were that work environment formaldehyde concentration exceeded Department of Labor Protection and Welfare standards for two processes. Health risk assessment revealed that employees were at risk of cancer (CR) from exposure to formaldehyde at unacceptable levels in all four processes, while the hazard quotient (HQ) was unacceptable in three processes. Only the body injection process was deemed acceptable. These findings suggest that gross anatomy laboratory staff are at risk of health impacts from exposure to formaldehyde in all working processes. Environmental improvements are needed, including appropriate ventilation systems to control chemical concentration and reduce future employee exposure.

THE DEVELOPMENT OF NEW NORMAL EXERCISE PROGRAMS TO IMPROVE HEALTH-RELATED PHYSICAL FITNESS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION STUDENTS

2024-10-28T08:57:04+07:00

This research aimed to 1) develop a new normal exercise program to enhance health-related physical
fitness for higher education students, and 2) study the effects of the new normal exercise program on health-related
physical fitness for higher education students. The research process was divided into four phases: 1) studying the
problems and needs for the program; 2) developing the program; 3) testing the program; and 4) evaluating and
summarizing the results of the program's use. The sample consisted of 60 higher education students selected
through simple random sampling, with 30 students in the experimental group and 30 students in the control group.
The activities were conducted over a period of 8 weeks, either 5 or 7 days per week. The tools used included 1)
the new normal exercise program and 2) a health-related physical fitness test. Data were analyzed using mean,
standard deviation, and t-tests at a statistical significance level of .05.
The research findings revealed as follows:
1) The developed exercise program had an index of item-objective congruence (IOC) of 0. 94, which
included: 1.1) frequency of exercise 5 or 7 days per week; 1.2) exercise intensity at moderate to heavy levels; 1.3)
duration of exercise not exceeding 60 minutes per day; 1.4) types of exercises divided into three categories: 1.4.1)
cardio with 8 activities; 1.4.2) muscle stretching with 6 poses; and 1.4.3) resistance training using body weight with
7 poses; 1.5) exercise procedures divided into 5 steps: warm-up, dynamic muscle stretching, main exercise, cooldown,
and static muscle stretching.
2) The results of post-experiment indicated that the experimental group exhibited better health-related
physical fitness in terms of cardiovascular and respiratory endurance, muscular endurance, and flexibility compared
to pre-experiment levels with a statistical significance level of .05.

EFFECTS OF HEALTH EDUCATION LEARNING ACTIVITIES ON SEXUAL HARASSMENT PROTECTION OF YOUTHS USING CASE STUDIES THROUGH ONLINE SOCIAL NETWORK

2024-07-22T11:49:11+07:00

The objective of this research is to study “EFFECTS OF HEALTH EDUCATION LEARNING ACTIVITIES ON SEXUAL HARASSMENT PROTECTION OF YOUTHS USING CASE STUDIES THROUGH ONLINE SOCIAL NETWORK” The research methodology includes a specific focused group selection of high school students aged between 15-18 years, currently studying in upper secondary schools under the Basic Education Commission, Ministry of Education. The research involves 60 participants divided into two groups: experimental group and control group with 30 students each. Tools used in the research include content validity analysis and pre-experimental tool validation, consisting of 8 activity plans for health education learning related to preventing adolescent sexual harassment behaviors via online social networks. Data analysis involves using means, standard deviations, and testing for differences in mean scores using t-tests. The research results indicate that the mean scores of sexual harassment protection behaviors in the experimental group post-experiment are significantly higher than pre-experiment at a statistically significant level of .05 Additionally, the mean scores of sexual harassment protection behaviors in the experimental group post-experiment are significantly higher than those in the control group at a statistically significant level of .05 In conclusion, the research findings suggest that health education learning activities related to preventing adolescent sexual harassment behaviors through online social networks are more effective than conventional health education learning methods
