Amidst recent legislative changes that have transformed and further commercialized the Division I (DI) college sports industry, researchers and institutions have begun to emphasize the importance of student-athlete holistic development. This shift toward holistic development attempts to counteract claims that the college sports system prioritizes athletic success at the expense of student-athletes’ holistic development. Existing theories help institutions understand the factors that contribute to student-athlete holistic development, particularly for Black student-athletes (BSAs) playing at predominantly White institutions (PWIs). The purpose of this paper is to expand existing frameworks by exploring the role that institutional culture and mission play in student-athletes’ holistic development using grounded theory.  Semi-structured interviews with 20 Black former DI football and women’s basketball players and 12 DI football and women’s basketball coaches revealed three primary themes: 1) goals influence HIP participation, 2) HIPs occur outside athletics, and 3) messaging reflects institutional values. The findings present implications for PWIs looking to improve retention and belonging of their BSAs through an emerging theoretical framework.

El artículo analiza la percepción del territorio entre agentes clave del campo turístico local para indagar cómo incide en el abordaje del turismo en Ameca, Jalisco, municipio al occidente de México marcado por la migración, cuyo potencial turístico plantea una alternativa para su desarrollo socioeconómico. La metodología utilizada es fenomenológica, recurriendo a la entrevista semiestructurada y el análisis interpretativo para profundizar en la percepción de los participantes, complementada de etnografía y análisis documental para contextualizar el lugar. Los resultados indican que, al interiorizar componentes socioeconómicos y culturales que afectan sus experiencias en el territorio, los agentes forman una imagen del lugar que puede ser condicionante al desarrollo turístico, orientando sus disposiciones en un sentido negativo a pesar de cualquier potencialidad, así mismo, a través de su percepción pueden encontrarse estrategias endógenas correctivas

This study represents an exploratory research, which aims to create an incipient theoretical framework for conceptualizing a new notion, namely that of exotourism. The new cosmic competition, which is different from the one during the Cold War, through its commercial and private character, generated a phenomenology associated with a new form of tourism, respectively trips for recreational purposes in the space, with private character, for which we propose the term ‘exotourism’. Thus, as objectives of this exploratory research we mention: testing a working definition, critical analysis of terminology and identifying the essential characteristics of exotourism, which would give scientific legitimacy to exotourism, as well as the emerging concept

<p><strong>The purpose</strong> of the work is to assess the severity of neuropathic pain and determine the effectiveness of rehabilitation measures in people with compression-ischemic neuropathy of the upper limb in the subacute period.</p><p><strong>Material and methods.</strong> Analysis and synthesis of literature data, visual analogue pain scale (VAS), DN4 questionnaire for diagnosing the nature of pain, rehabilitation examination, methods of mathematical statistics. The study involved 73 patients with compression-ischemic neuropathy of the upper limb. Patients were divided into 2 groups: the main (37 people) and control (36 people). The duration of the disease ranged from 3 to 18 months. The age of the examined ranged from 18 to 57 years, an average of 39.4±6.7 years.</p><p><strong>Results.</strong> At the initial examination, we found that in patients of both groups, carpal tunnel syndrome was diagnosed more often than other tunnel syndromes. In patients of the main and control groups, VAS indicators were above average (6.62 ± 0.21 and 6.58 ± 0.18 points, respectively). No significant difference between the groups was found (p&gt; 0.05). In patients of the main group, we used the following rehabilitation measures: kinesitherapy with neurodynamic mobilization, taping, apparatus physiotherapy and mechanotherapy procedures. Patients in the control group were engaged in a standard rehabilitation program - physical exercises, apparatus physiotherapy, mechanotherapy. Upon repeated examination by YOUR, a decrease in pain was observed in both groups, however, in the main group, the severity of pain was significantly lower than in the control group (p &lt;0.001).</p><p><strong>Conclusions.</strong> The study confirmed that the inclusion of kinesitherapy with neurodynamic mobilization, taping, apparatus physiotherapy and mechanotherapy in the complex treatment of copression-ischemic neuropathies of the upper limb contributed to a significant reduction in pain in patients of the main group compared with the control group, in which the standard rehabilitation program was used.</p>

O artigo apresenta as principais ideias da Teoria Ator-Rede (TAR) discutidas por seus fundadores e suas aplicações em pesquisas sobre turismo, visando despertar o interesse de pesquisadores brasileiros a respeito da temática, tendo em vista que a TAR tem o potencial de proporcionar novas formas de análise ao fenômeno turístico. Assim, para apresentar um breve panorama desses estudos, seleciona-se uma amostra de periódicos nacionais e internacionais por meio do CiteScore da Scopus e do estrato Qualis da CAPES, e dentro desses são feitas buscas nos títulos, resumos e palavras-chave pelas expressões Teoria Ator-Rede, translação, simetria generalizada e performatividade. A partir dessas buscas, é possível perceber que a quantidade de artigos internacionais é superior, assim como a variedade temática. As produções nos periódicos internacionais analisados não se encontram restritas a um grupo de autores específicos, no entanto, em termos geográficos, ainda estão associados a instituições europeias. Também se nota que a performatividade, tema mais frequente em periódicos internacionais, é associada a discussões sobre autenticidade, multiplicidade e processos de organização, enquanto que os artigos que se referem diretamente à TAR e à translação discutem especialmente a heterogeneidade do turismo.

<p><strong>The purpose</strong> of the work: to determine the factor structure of the complex preparedness of shooters of 14-15 years who specialize in the Classic bow, for rational construction of the training process of athletes of this age category.</p><p><strong>Material and methods.</strong> The experiment was attended by 16 bow-shooters (girls) aged 14-15 years old, specializing in Classic bow, sport school "Avangard" in Kyiv. The experiment was conducted in the preparatory period, September 2018. The archers were tested for physical fitness (shuttle running 4x9m, push-ups 30 s, jumping with skipping-rope, running 30 m, Romberg test, hanging on bent hands at an angle of 90˚, jump in length from place, raising the torso to a sitting position, dynamometry of the right and left hands), technical preparedness (holding the bow in the "stretch", archery 18 m, archery 60 m, stretching the bow on the right and left hand for 30 s). The obtained data were processed mathematically using factor analysis methods.</p><p><strong>Results</strong>. The factor structure of physical and technical preparedness of shooters, which are at the stage of specialized basic training, is established. Five factors were identified: static power endurance, dynamic power endurance, coordination capabilities, speed capabilities, strength capabilities.</p><p><strong>Conclusions</strong>. It is revealed that the most important indicators of the complex training of archers 14-15 years old are the indicators of shooting in the open air and indicators of the static strength of the archer, as well as indicators of shooting in the room and indicators of the dynamic endurance of the archer, indicating the dependence of physical and technical training. The use of rational means and methods of physical and technical training in the training process of athletes is recommended.</p>

Despite the rising number of creative tourism publications, creative tourism is still emerging as a recent research area. Its study ranges from urban cities to rural areas implicating different uses for creativity, culture, events, creative networks and the co-creation of experiences. This paper had the goal to focus on the main theoretical subjects of creative tourism as a research area. As a result, the authors pinpoint vital issues present in creative tourism literature even though its definition is still evolving. After a thorough literature review, the authors conceptualised three main theoretical contributions present in creative tourism literature: 1) creativity and its relation to tourism, (2) specialised consumption as a characteristic of the postmodern tourist and 3) the experience economy paradigm and co-creation. This study identifies the main theoretical underpinnings of creative tourism, which made this special interest tourism gain so much importance in recent years

Tourism destination competitiveness analysis benefits from a growing number of theoretical and applied developments. To support competitiveness strategies and despite the paraphernalia of competitiveness indexes available, there is not just a single set of indicators that can be used for all destinations at all times. The COMPETITIVTOUR model, developed since 2009 is applied to the south of Portugal versus the Mediterranean regions of Spain, a geographical area that aggregates 14 provinces, 20.2 million inhabitants and 180.1 million overnight stays. COMPETITIVTOUR’s objective is to create and apply a territorial assessment model, adapted to the common specificities of these regions, aiming to assist in guiding the complex task of destination competiveness management, with inputs from 25 official producers of information from Portugal and Spain. The outputs are aggregated in three main topics: territory management, markets, and resources&products. Critical areas were identified, with emphasis on the growing seasonality of demand, the market demand and supply adjustment and accommodation prices.

O presente estudo centraliza suas discussões na acessibilidade aos espaços públicos de uso turístico das cidades para pessoas com mobilidade reduzida e com deficiência. O artigo tem como objetivo principal analisar a acessibilidade após a requalificação urbana da área central da cidade de Balneário Camboriú/SC (importante destino turístico do litoral brasileiro), considerando as adaptações necessárias estabelecidas nas leis e nas normativas para pessoas com mobilidade reduzida e com deficiência. Para tanto, busca-se relacionar os conceitos de espaço turístico urbano e acessibilidade, por meio de uma pesquisa bibliográfica, formando assim um referencial teórico-conceitual. Além disso, foi realizada uma análise qualitativa de caráter exploratória e descritiva, buscando mapear a acessibilidade do espaço turístico e dos equipamentos dessa área da cidade, ressaltando as áreas que passaram pela requalificação urbana recente. Em seguida, foram realizadas a sistematização e a análise dos dados coletados, correlacionando-os com o referencial teórico-conceitual. Os resultados indicam que a qualidade do espaço turístico urbano da cidade, no que se refere à acessibilidade, ainda não se apresenta de forma completa e contínua, não garantindo autonomia e independência à pessoa com mobilidade reduzida e com deficiência. Concluiu-se, dessa forma, que as requalificações urbanas recentes não foram executadas na totalidade como recomenda a NBR9050, para promover rotas acessíveis e inclusão ao espaço urbano.

Esta resenha da obra Hegel, Marx, Nietzsche o el reino de las sombras (do filósofo francês Henri Lefebvre) aproxima-se, em verdade, de um ensaio, pelo escopo que tomou, para além de uma sintética resenha. Tem-se por objetivo debater e sustentar a complexidade e a continuidade do mundo moderno, que se mantém pelas sombras de duras e paradoxais contradições do passado, via constituição do Estado, o discurso do social e da Sociedade e o ideal civilizacional ou de Civilização. Dimensões modernas que são avaliadas a partir de Hegel, Marx e Nietzsche, autores que dão aporte à ideia de uma geografia do mundo de existências, na qual o novo e a novidade (no viés das técnicas e das ideias) nunca abandonam totalmente o passado, ou seja, não há ruptura completa com a história, sempre renovada pelo espaço enquanto reflexo da interação permanente sociedade-natureza. Aparecem como temários: a concreticidade de práticas radicais revolucionárias entendidas no bojo da História (Marx), a subjetividade inerente ao corpo e às artes, responsáveis por resguardarem a ideia de uma nova Civilização (Nietzsche), e a vitória de um edifício estatal que a tudo e a todos controla (Hegel). Acredita-se na importância deste debate para o pensamento do mundo do presente, no viés dos questionamentos sistematizados favorecedores do repensar criticamente o espaço.

O souvenir é um produto diretamente relacionado à atividade turística, pois o consumo destes bens faz parte da experiência de muitos turistas. Neste estudo temos como objetivo compreender a relação entre a oferta de souvenirs e os espaços de visitação no destino turístico Curitiba, verificando a incidência e a distribuição espacial dos estabelecimentos comerciais de souvenirs na cidade. Para a realização desta pesquisa, utilizamos Curitiba como estudo de caso e realizamos um recorte espacial delimitado pelo roteiro da Linha Turismo, um percurso de ônibus que integra vinte e quatro atrativos turísticos. Assim, por meio de uma pesquisa de campo, de caráter exploratório, identificamos os estabelecimentos comerciais de souvenirs e os atrativos localizados nos pontos de parada da Linha Turismo. A partir disso, elaboramos um mapa para demonstrar a distribuição espacial destes elementos e realizamos uma análise com base no referencial teórico previamente realizado. Como resultado de pesquisa, observamos que os estabelecimentos de comercialização de souvenirs estão situados próximos aos atrativos turísticos, que atraem a demanda para o consumo deste tipo de produtos, ou seja, a demanda influencia diretamente a localização espacial da oferta de souvenirs.

The drives to make effective business decisions are essentially generated by the need for human (as opposed to professional or expert) comfort, and therefore informed and influenced by the need to make outcomes as predictable and assured as possible, and that those in key organisational and managerial positions turn to the behaviours that they have learned over the entire period of their lives, rather than to professional expertise, knowledge and influence that are available to them in their organisations. This comfort and assurance is in turn driven by the fact that it is corporate rather than personal resources that are at risk and so on the face of it ‘there is little that can go wrong’. This is much more comforting at a human level, and much less dependent on the expertise of others, than relying on emerging techniques and tools such as business and web analytics, which are harder to use professionally, and require dependence and trust at a human level. Influences on behaviour can be seen in the form of: - Bullying, pulling rank and using power of personality and position to get decisions through an implemented - Employing uncritical people in senior positions to reinforce comfort and assurance. Influences on decisions can be tracked through relating intended outcomes to actual results and then in turn evaluating the key drivers of the decisions present at the time. The conclusions are that a body of knowledge and understanding in this area needs to be developed and implemented. A body of learning and understanding is required to be brought to the fore, so that those who arrive in top senior and critical positions can undertake some specialist development in this critical area before taking key decisions based on their own preferences and personality and position.

A análise por envoltória de dados (DEA) tem-se mostrado uma técnica segura para avaliar e comparar unidades de negócios que podem incluir uma ou múltiplas empresas, municípios ou regiões. Devido à sua simplicidade, ela é uma técnica que pode se tornar particularmente importante nas situações altamente complexas encontradas quando da tomada de decisões associadas ao turismo. Neste trabalho propõe-se uma metodologia que envolve o uso associado da técnica não-paramétrica DEA e da análise estocástica (paramétrica) de correlação. A utilidade do método é avaliada pela sua aplicação na solução de dois problemas-exemplo associados ao turismo. O primeiro exemplo mostra a avaliação da eficiência relativa das diferentes unidades de uma cadeia de fast food e permite afirmar que a técnica proposta pode ser aplicada diretamente à cadeia de restaurantes, agências de viagens, etc. O segundo exemplo relaciona-se com a avaliação da eficiência de hotéis de uma cadeia, com base em duas variáveis de saída: satisfação do cliente e relação custo-benefício, e seis variáveis de entrada (relacionadas a custos): preço, conveniências, conforto do quarto, controle de temperatura, serviço e qualidade dos alimentos. Os resultados mostram que o método proposto é altamente eficaz quando usado para eliminar variáveis de entrada ou de saída significativamente correlacionadas.

En 1921, al conmemorarse el centenario de la independencia del Perú, la colonia italiana residente en nuestro país donó el Museo de Arte Italiano (MAI). El arquitecto italiano Gaetano Moretti se encargó del proyecto del edificio y Mario Vannini Parenti seleccionó las obras y los detalles ornamentales en Italia. El 11 de noviembre de 1923 se entregó oficialmente el museo. Tanto el diseño como el decorado del edificio representan el arte italiano del pasado: elementos de la arquitectura de Bramante, relieves y detalles decorativos inspirados en Donatello, Guiberti, Miguel angel y Botticelli. La fachada se completa con los escudos de las principales ciudades italianas y dos gigantescos mosaicos con los personajes más notables de la historia italiana.
