- A educação física na escola: Atitudes dos alunos em função da idade e do sexoPublication . Lima, Ricardo; Benites, Luisa; José Miranda Gonçalves, Francisco; Resende, RuiTrata ‑se de um estudo transversal, observacional de cariz quantitativo que teve como objetivo analisar as perceções e atitudes dos alunos relativamente à disciplina de Educação Física comparando os sexos e as diferentes faixas etárias. Para tal, foi aplicado um questionário validado e adaptado de Al ‑Liheibi (2008) a 812 alunos pertencentes a 5 escolas do ensino básico e secundário de 3 cidades em Portugal, sendo 384 do sexo masculino e 428 do feminino com idades compreendidas entre os 10 e os 20 anos. Os resultados revelam que os alunos do sexo masculino têm atitudes mais positivas em relação à disciplina de Educação Física. Quando comparadas as idades dos participantes, verificam ‑se diferenças significativas nas atitudes positivas do grupo etário mais jovem quando comparado com os restantes grupos. Dessa forma, um dos indicativos de discussão é a postura do professor na aula, para, sensibilizar, motivar e informar os alunos acerca da importância da Educação Física e suas abrangências ao longo da vida
- Journeys of Portuguese athletes to sporting success: the peaks and troughsPublication . Pereira, Antonino; Pinheiro, Maria; Carvalhinho, Luis; Sequeira, Pedro; Resende, Rui; Liston, KatieThis research examined the experiences of eight Portuguese (former) elite athletes from a social scientific perspective. In so doing it attempted to move away from the tentacles of achievement sport and, in particular, the performance efficiency model that dominates elite sport. Rather, it focused on the subjective and qualitative experiences of sportspeople themselves and gave them a forum to reflect upon the primary socializing agents that played a key role in their sporting success, and on the peaks and troughs on their journeys to sporting success, nationally and internationally. The research design included semi-structured interviews with athletes that excelled in athletics, handball, gymnastics, korfball and swimming. All eight had achieved outstanding results nationally and internationally. A qualitative approach was adopted for data collection and analysis. Giving voice to the former athletes themselves revealed much about: the primary socializing agents for sport in their lives, as young, teenage and adult athletes; those role models and mentors that influenced their initial and ongoing involvement and specialization in sport, these being the family (usually parents), physical education teachers and peers; and, finally, the peaks and troughs in their careers which usually hinged around sporting success or defeat, failure to achieve expected results, and the onset and impact of injury. Taken together, these findings reverberate with those of other researchers beyond the Lusophone world. They also indicate the emergence and development of a sports ethic in Portugal despite the comparatively late entry of that country into the global sporting arms race.

- Quantifying the offensive sequences that result in goals in elite futsal matchesPublication . Sarmento, Hugo; Bradley, Paul; Anguera, M. Teresa; Polido, Tiago; Resende, Rui; Campaniço, JorgeThe aim of this study was to quantify the type of offensive sequences that result in goals in elite futsal. Thirty competitive games in the Spanish Primera Division de Sala were analysed using computerised notation analysis for patterns of play that resulted in goals. More goals were scored in positional attack (42%) and from set pieces (27%) compared to other activities. The number of defence to offense "transitions" (n = 45) and the start of offensive plays due to the rules of the game (n = 45) were the most common type of sequences that resulted in goals compared to other patterns of play. The central offensive zonal areas were the most common for shots on goal, with 73% of all goals scored from these areas of the pitch compared to defensive and wide zones. The foot was the main part of the body involved in scoring (n = 114). T-pattern analysis of offensive sequences revealed regular patterns of play, which are common in goal scoring opportunities in futsal and are typical movement patterns in this sport. The data demonstrate common offensive sequences and movement patterns related to goals in elite futsal and this could provide important information for the development of physical and technical training drills that replicate important game situations.
