Paul Miller, Associate Professor of Exercise Science; Eric Hall, Associate Professor of Exercise Science; Wally Bixby, Assistant Professor of Exercise Science; Liz Bailey, Lecturer in Health Education; Steve Bailey, Associate Professor of Physical Therapy; and Steve Folger, Associate Professor of Physical Therapy, presented papers at the Annual Meeting of the American College of Sports Medicine in Denver (5/31-6/3). Recent graduates Brooks Martin (’06), Chrissy Kostura (’06), Kristin Sanders (’06) and Rachel Blakeslee (’06) served as co-authors on these presentations.
These presentations also included collaborations with Texas Tech University, The U.S. Naval Academy, Trestles, Inc., and The U.S. Naval Research Laboratory.
The following presentations were made:
PC Miller, EK Bailey, RL Blakeslee and EE Hall: “The influence of various distraction stimuli on affective responses to cycle ergometry.”
EE Hall, BE Martin, SP Bailey, PC Miller and SE Folger: “Changes in EEG activity during exercise: Due to duration or intensity of exercise?”
EK Bailey, PC Miller, CM Kostura and EE Hall: “Effects of various stimuli on exercise performance.”
SP Bailey, KC Pfluger, C Holt, Z La Budde, D Afergan, S Bartlett, R Stripling, PC Miller and EE Hall: “Changes in performance of a virtual reality task subsequent to prolonged exercise in the heat and carbohydrate supplementation.”
WR Bixby, MR Lochbaum and M Parsons: “The Effects of Choice on the Temporal Dynamics of Affective Response Associated with Acute Exercise.”
R James, CL Shen, M Chyu, JM Brismee, M Zumwalt, WR Bixby, RL Paige, G Poklikuha and E Thompson: “Effects of a 6-week Tai Chi Exercise Intervention on Gait Kinematics in Knee Osteoarthritic Individuals.”
