Check and Interpretation on the Song DynastyPainted Pottery Figurine of Cuju Child HAO Qin, GAO Xiao_l 2016, 42 (1):  1-5.  doi: 10.15942/j.jcsu.2016.01.001 Abstract ( 1959 )   PDF (2437KB) ( 1842 )   Save The Song dynasty represents the peak period of Cuju’s development in ancient China. Our research of both cultural relics and related literature on Cuju game demonstrates that people in the Song Dynasty were well aware of Cuju’s fitness value and moral education and therefore they encouraged children to play the game. The fact that Children’s Cuju game in the Song Dynasty was more depicted on relics than documented, according to our analysis, is a result of the difference between writers’ and artists’ descriptive angels. Our investigation of the Painted Pottery Figurine of Cuju Child in Chengdu Sport University museum reveals that children’s Cuju game and the Cuju ball manufacturing in the Song Dynasty achieved remarkable progress and the Cuju suits and boots were already standardized.

The Connotations and Forms of Sports Rights SONG Hengguo,ZHOU Aiguang 2016, 42 (1):  11-17.  doi: 10.15942/j.jcsu.2016.01.003 Abstract ( 1900 )   PDF (1144KB) ( 2048 )   Save Objective: Moral freedom, legal freedom and social freedom are the philosophical foundation and core content of rights and constitute the three basic dimensions of freedom of rights. These three dimensions are closely linked and inseparable, and jointly promote the transformation and realization of the subject’s forms of rights. As a kind of basic rights of human society, in the interaction of various social factors, sports rights have formed a rather complete system, and are increasingly becoming a means of human being’s all-round developments. The research suggests that sports rights have both the natural and social properties of rights, and meanwhile their own innate properties. With different targets, these three kinds of properties should be treated differently; sports rights have extensive sources, contents and forms, so the viewpoint to limit them only to legal rights is biased; through sports cultural characteristics, sports rights transform "freedom" of rights into "fairness", which run through and are implemented in specific sports relations; in reality, there are a variety of sports rights forms, of which the due sports rights are the foundation, the innate sports rights are the basis, the legal sports rights are the core and the actual sports rights are the ultimate goal.

Researchon the Dynamic Change of Urban-rural Sports Consumption Gap in China GUO Rongjuan 2016, 42 (1):  28-33.  doi: 10.15942/j.jcsu.2016.01.006 Abstract ( 1800 )   PDF (1552KB) ( 1875 )   Save Combining Chortareas & Kapetanios’sequence Panel Selection Method (2009) and KSS Fourier unit root test, this paper investigates the stability of urban-rural sports consumption gap in the 30 provinces (municipalities and autonomous regions) in China from 1978 to 2012. As compared with the traditional linear tests, the nonlinear Fourier function is more powerful in testing nonlinear temporal sequence with structural breaks. The empirical results show that the sports consumption gap in Shanghai, Hainan, Xinjiang, Qinghai and Guizhou provinces presents nonlinear convergence, meaning that the urban-rural dual structure mode in these regions has gradually disappeared. While the sports consumption gap in the rest 25 provinces (municipalities and autonomous regions) exhibits nonlinear properties, indicating that the urban-rural differentiation in these regions is still obvious and it cannot be eliminated solely through market regulation.

Boxing Type and Village: The PracticeSpace of Wushu Athropology WANG Mingjian 2016, 42 (1):  51-54.  doi: 10.15942/j.jcsu.2016.01.010 Abstract ( 1451 )   PDF (1096KB) ( 1566 )   Save China’s sports anthropology originated from traditional sports studies, but the studies of Chinese Wushu using cultural anthropology theory and methods are unusually weak. Most of previous studies on the relevant theories of Wushu use the framework and orientation of history and folklore. Anthropology theory featuring participation and observation is seldom used unless necessary, therefore the cultural anthropological research of Wushu is almost a blind spot. Based on a review of sports anthropological studies in China, the paper puts forward three dimensions of Wushu culture studies to which cultural anthropology can be applied: (1) Native villages: a unique window to which the research paradigm of cultural anthropology can be applied first; (2) boxing types: micro cases of Wushu studies, equally important like village Wushu studies; (3) immovable villages and movable boxing types: the cultural map of Chinese Wushu studies.

Wushu Cultural Inheritance: Space, Plight and Future FAN Tonggang,GUO Yucheng 2016, 42 (1):  55-60.  doi: 10.15942/j.jcsu.2016.01.011 Abstract ( 1640 )   PDF (1128KB) ( 1605 )   Save From the perspective of cultural studies and on the classification of material culture, institutional culture and spiritual culture, the present paper analyses the levels of Wushu culture inheritance and points out that Wushu culture inheritance consists of three progressive levels, namely, "retention of the original form", "continuation of the cultural essence" , and "extension of the cultural links". In terms of Wushu cultural inheritance space limits, the plights facing modern Wushu cultural inheritance mainly include: overprotection of "static" culture versus inadequate efforts in carrying on "living" core culture; well-developed intangible cultural heritage protection system versus challenge facing nongovernmental inheritance environment; emergence of academic stereotype versus lack of creative ideas. A breakthrough of the third level of Wushu cultural inheritance space requires us to carry forward Wushu cultural essence and develop its inheritance mechanism in a creative way.

Study on Systematic Tennis Serving Skill and Synthetic and Coordinated Training System JIANG Hongwei 2016, 42 (1):  61-65.  doi: 10.15942/j.jcsu.2016.01.012 Abstract ( 1718 )   PDF (1104KB) ( 1731 )   Save Analysis of the gap of tennis service skill between China’s players and the world’s top players indicates that the opinion that tennis service is under the server’s absolute control is not true. The author puts forward for the first time the systematic service skill, namely, the service skill is a complete system and excellent players should pursue the synthetic and coordinated effect in their service. The effect includes: (1) synthesis and coordination from static to dynamic; (2) synthesis and coordination of various elements (subjects) involved in service; (3) synthesis and coordination from external to internal. Based on the above opinion, the author proposes a synthetic and coordinated tennis service training system which contains: (1) prioritizing coordination in the service training and make it play a dominant role in the service process; (2) attaching importance to the coherence between service and the following action; (3) integrating the body movements along the vertical line and use the overall strength; (4) improving the synthetic and coordinated effect through maximizing the efficiency and minimizing the energy consumption; (5) developing individual’s best service rhythm. The paper also points out the 6 special abilities that athletes should have if they want to achieve the above effect. Related Articles | Metrics

Technical and Tactical Characteristics of and Developmental Countermeasures for Men’s Doubles in C and D Group in the National College Students Tennis League WAN Fengming 2016, 42 (1):  66-69.  doi: 10.15942/j.jcsu.2016.01.013 Abstract ( 1922 )   PDF (1089KB) ( 1782 )   Save Based on literature review, data statistics and on-the-spot observation, this paper analyzes athletes’ technical and tactic characteristics in men’s doubles Group C and D in the National college students tennis league and finds that in the service section, athletes mainly aim at suppressing the opponent’s backhand and pursuing stability in their performance. Their serving and receiving tactics are typical of the practice in singles match. They prefer to use the net-and-bottom formation, namely one athlete stands by the net, the other by the baseline. There are obvious defects in their service quality and ability of applying tactics to receive second service, blocking return, competing at the court center, net volleying and gaining key points. The author suggests that student athletes need to improve their ability of serving and receiving; do more training about net volleying, return blocking and approach shot; exchange attack and defense in advance;develop different serving and receiving tactics through communication and trust, so as to improve their technical and tactical level.

Concept, Theoretical Models, and Research　Prospects of Athlete Burnout YE Lv, WANG Bin, MA Hongyu, WU Min, DONG Liangshan 2016, 42 (1):  83-88.  doi: 10.15942/j.jcsu.2016.01.016 Abstract ( 1813 )   PDF (1249KB) ( 1609 )   Save Athlete burnout is a process in which individual resources and environmental demands are out of balance,resulting in that athlete appears short psychosomatic strain responses, if without effective recovery for a long time, these stress responses will accumulate constantly and hence develop gradually into a psychosomatic syndrome and a dysfunctional condition characterized by emotional and physical exhaustion, diminished sense of accomplishment as well as sport devaluation. Athlete burnout has not only relations to but also distinctions from overtraining syndrome, stress and depression. So it needs to be treated according to specific conditions. At present, there were a variety of theoretical models towards explaining athlete burnout, including cognitive - af-fective stress model, negative training stress response model, unidimensional identity development and external control model, sports commitment model, and integrated model. Some researchers even apply self - determina-tion theory and achievement goal theory in their study of athlete burnout formation mechanism. In the future, re-searchers can inspect the exogenous factors which affect athlete burnout by using work demands - resources model, explore the psychological resources which can immunize athlete against burnout from the perspective of positive psychology to, and carry out studies on athlete engagement through diachronic tracing and qualitative research.

Basketball Team Conflict and Satisfaction: The Mediation of OBC YANG Shangjian, SUN Youping 2016, 42 (1):  89-95.  doi: 10.15942/j.jcsu.2016.01.017 Abstract ( 1500 )   PDF (1238KB) ( 1572 )   Save Objective: To discuss the relations between teammate conflict, organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) and satisfaction. Methods: The study chose 336 U15 high-level male basketball athletes as samples and tested them using teammate conflict scale, athlete OBC scale and athlete satisfaction scale. Results: Team conflict has powerful explanation for OCB (R2=0.042, 0.166, 0.195, 0.287,P<0.01), meanwhile it has significant explanatory power for athletes satisfaction (R2=0.108, 0.149,P<0.001) and the two dimensions of satisfaction, namely the dimension of individual performance and the dimension of team performance (R2=0.108, 0.149,P<0.001). When team conflict and OCB were used together to predict athlete’s satisfaction, the influence of teammate conflict on the two dimensions of satisfaction was significantly decreased. Among them, the individual performance was still significant (ΔR2=0.024,P<0.05), while the team performance was not significant any more (ΔR2=0.008,P>0.05). Conclusion: Team conflict was not conducive to the improvement of athlete’s OBC and satisfaction, but OBC has a positive effect on satisfaction improvement, and played a mediation role between team conflict and satisfaction.

Methods: Using literature review, video recording, motion picture capturing to make detailed observation and statistics of the questioning methods employed by the two types of teachers of each four in four sessions. Results: (1) the predominant questions raised by the two types of PE teachers in classroom were mainly memory-based questions. The number of questions raised by experts in a single class was significantly higher than that of primary teachers. As compared with primary teachers , experts raised more analytical, reasoning, commentary, and critical questions and less imaginary and creative questions; (2) Experts’ average waiting time for response was 3 seconds less that that of primary teachers, much longer than the duration for a single question used by primary teachers. The duration used by experts for question repetition and questions having multiple answers was significantly longer than that used by primary teachers; (3) in terms of answer-responding skills, experts spent more time on responding to students answers and used the skills of "giving guidance answers" and "suggesting a special activity" more often; 4) as compared with their behavior in non-special classes, experts have more questioning behaviors, use more commentary and critical questions and questions having multiple answers, and give more guidance answers. Conclusion: Primary PE teacher are considerably different from experts in using question types and skills of eliciting and responding to answers. Therefore, it is important for primary teachers to observe and learn form experts’ teaching behavior. Related Articles | Metrics
