Dejan Madić Darinka Korovljev Boris Popović Borislav Obradović

In the total sample of 128 adolescent boys and adolescent girls, of the average age of 18.75 years, a survey was conducted by using a standardized questionnaire for assessing the dimensions of personality – the question- naire Big Five Plus Two (Smederevac� Mitrovic� Colovic� 2009). The main objective of this study was to investigate the psychological characteristics of adolescents, the candidates for admission to the Faculty of Sport and Physi- cal Education and the specific objective was to determine the differences in psychological characteristics of the candidates according to the type of sport - individual or collective (the Faculty of Sport and Physical Education, the University of Novi Sad). The results of t-test for independent samples, showed that there are significant differences between the respondents in scores on the dimensions. There was a statistically significant difference in the scores on the dimensions of Openness, Conscientiousness and Neuroti- cism (p≤0�05). The respondents engaged in individual sports had a higher score on Conscientiousness and Openness, while the respondents engaged in collective sports, had a higher score on the dimension of Neuroticism.

Motor competence of children with different levels of physical activity

Exercise and Quality of Life (2022)

Gojko Škundrić Draženka Mačak Snežana Damjanović Boris Popović

<p>Adequate development, testing, continuous motor competence monitoring and physical fitness are very important factors in the development of children aged 7 to 10. The purpose of this study was to determine the differences in the motor competence of the children engaged in organized physical activities in sports clubs and the children who were not included in any kind of organized physical activity. The study included 119 children, 57 children engaged in organized activities in sports clubs (age: 8.44 &plusmn; 0.78; height: 133.17 &plusmn; 7.21; weight: 31.96 &plusmn; 7.73 BMI: 17.9 &plusmn; 3.38) and 62 children who had no additional organized physical activity (age: 8.43 &plusmn; 0.84; height: 134.85 &plusmn; 7.60; Weight: 34.44 &plusmn; 9.20 BMI: 18.7 &plusmn; 3.68). Motor competence was assessed by the Kiphard-Schilling body coordination test (KTK). After adjusting for age, gender, and BMI effects, we found small to medium significant mean differences (p&lt;0.05, d [95%CI]) between the groups in hopping for height tests (d=0.78 [0.41, 1.16]), jumping sideways (d=0.79 [0.42, 1.17]), moving sideways (d=0.68 [0.32, 1.06]), and walking backward (d=0.44 [0.07, 0.81]). The results have shown that the children who were engaged in organized physical activities in sports clubs have a higher level of motor competence than their peers who were not included in the organized system in sports clubs. The authors strongly suggest that teachers, educators, coaches, and parents should encourage and include children in organized systems of physical activity, i.e., training processes in sports clubs.</p>

Effects of Acute Physical Exercise on Mathematical Computation Depending on the Parts of the Training in Young Children.

PubMed (2015)

Gustav Bala Tatjana Adamović Dejan Madić Boris Popović

The aim of this study was to determine whether acute physical exercise may increase the ability to quickly solve basic mathematical operations in young children. In this way, the children acquired the means to activate a larger area of the brain when necessary. The research sample of 38 preschool and 18 schoolchildren was tested in basic mathematical operations before and after physical exercise. The results showed that children's computational performance was enhanced significantly during exercise and remained stable after relaxation part of their physical training.

Hip-hop from dancers’ viewpoint: Dance, lifestyle, and/or subculture?

Exercise and Quality of Life (2021)

Snežana Damjanović Boris Popović Ivana Milovanović Tijana Šćepanović

<p>The paper presents the results of field research on the population of dancers &ndash; members of the hip-hop community who are &ldquo;contestants&rdquo; in battles. The field research was carried out in April 2022 on a sample of dancers aged 17 to 40 (N = 31). The research results indicate that the hip-hop community in Serbia is small, but that such battles in specific forms contribute to the community&rsquo;s maintenance and expansion. Battles also play a significant role in the progression and expression of dancers as individuals. Dancers consider hip-hop to be not only an art form but much more, hip-hop is synonymous with a lifestyle and a &ldquo;way of looking at the world&rdquo; for dancers. Although the research was carried out on a small sample, it represents the author&rsquo;s pioneering contribution to a deeper understanding of the hip-hop community in Serbian society. It also indicates the need to carry out compatible research in the future.</p>
