- - The study explored fear of falling (FOF) in older patients post-fall, focusing on factors linked to FOF and its impact on long-term health outcomes, using a sample of 1464 patients aged 65 and older from various emergency departments.
- - Key factors associated with FOF included age, gender, living situation, and past fall experiences; inversely, those using walking aids or in residential care had lower FOF.
- - Although FOF was common among participants, it wasn't significantly connected to long-term outcomes like death or hospitalization, indicating a need for further research on how FOF affects older adults' quality of life and functional capacity.
The body of evidence has shown that the external focus of attention (EF) rather than the internal focus of attention (IF) enhances motor skill learning and performance. Within racket sports which require a high level of motor control, anticipation skills, and mental preparedness, effectively directing attention is essential to elicit improvements in athletic performance. The present review aimed to evaluate the scientific evidence concerning the effects of attentional focus instructions on motor learning and performance in racket sports.

Design And Methods: A cross-sectional design was used for this study. The sample consisted of 2605 children and adolescents enrolled in grades 1-3 (ages 7-9, n = 1165), 4-6 (ages 10-12, n = 837), and 7-8 (ages 13-14, n = 603), including 1353 boys and 1252 girls.
Fundamental motor skills (FMS) are essential for enjoyable, confident and skillful participation in physical activity across the lifespan. Due to the alarming low level of FMS proficiency in children and adolescents worldwide, the development of motor competency is an urgent issue for physical education. The promotion and implementation of a systematic process of teaching and learning FMS should be a physical education priority.
