This study aims to determine physical activity (PA level) and sedentary behavior (SB level) in students with various parents' income levels. This study used a cross-sectional design. The subjects used in this study were 900 students from 10 schools and ten cities in East Java, Indonesia. Data on students' parents' income were grouped into five categories based on their income level (very low: n = 360; low: n = 231; medium: n = 123; high: n = 79; very high: n = 107). The research instruments used were the Children’s Physical Activity Questionnaire (CPAQ) to measure the level of physical activity (PA level) and the Adolescent Sedentary Activity Questionnaire (ASAQ) to measure the level of sedentary behavior (SB level). The results of the Mann-Whitney statistical test showed significant differences in PA level and SB level between the very low-income group of parents and the low, medium, high, and very high-income groups (p

This study aims to investigate the effects of a new training method for archery athletes with different distances, namely 20 meters, 50 meters, and 70 meters, in improving concentration and anaerobic endurance. The pre- and post-control group design was used in this study with the sample selection method using the purposive sampling technique. The criteria for participants in this study include: actively practicing archery, aged 14-20 years, having at least 5 years of archery competition experience, domiciled in East Java Province, not injured, and willing to participate in the study until the end. 40 sub-elite archery athletes (20 males, 20 females) became participants in this study and were divided into 4 groups: conventional training (CON), training with a shooting distance of 20 m (NEAR), training with a shooting distance of 50 m (MID), and training with a shooting distance of 70 m (LONG) training groups. Each group underwent a 12-week training program specific to their assigned distance. The instrument used to measure concentration is the standardised archery mirror drawing test and to measure anaerobic endurance using the RAST test instrument. The results of the paired sample t-test analysis showed that in the anaerobic endurance variable, the NEAR, MID, and LONG groups had a p-value 0.05. In the concentration variable (time), all groups had a p-value

Badminton has become a sport that has grown rapidly in the last few decades. The goal of the study is to examine how badminton research has evolved over the past 30 years. The Bibliometric Analysis and Systematic Review method was applied in this study. A thorough approach was used to scan SCOPUS research journal databases for articles. The term "Badminton" was utilized. Furthermore, journals published within the last 30 years starting in 2023 were excluded from consideration. On October 17th, 2023, 1,053 items from Scopus were extracted. As a result, 217 articles were chosen for additional examination using the VOS viewer computer program. The study's findings demonstrated that over the past 20 years, there has been a notable increase in interest in badminton research. China, Spain, England, and Japan have contributed the most to this research. English dominates in scientific publications about badminton, although several other languages ​​also contribute. Research subjects include athlete physiology, injuries, and health, as well as differences in playing styles and athlete rankings. Several studies have also highlighted the use of technology in-game analysis and athlete training. Research on badminton is an important part of the development of this sport and can support athletes' performance and health. In the next few decades, multidisciplinary research involving different languages ​​and countries may be the key to a more comprehensive understanding of the sport of badminton.

Barriers to physical activity in vision impairment are associated with increased inactivity and psychological well-being problems. Previous research has only identified constraints in physical activity without conducting an in-depth analysis of physical activity levels and psychological well-being. This study aims to explore the differences in physical activity barriers based on three different demographic environments regarding physical activity levels and psychological well-being. The method used was quantitative inferential with a cross-sectional design approach involving 90 respondents registered with the Indonesia Association of the Blind. Data were collected using the Barrier Questionnaire for People with Vision Impairment (BPAQ-VI), the Psychological Well-Being Scale (PWBS), and General Practice Physical Activity (GPPAQ). The data was processed using the one-way ANOVA test and the Tukey HSD via SPSS version 26. The study's results stated differences in physical activity barriers, physical activity levels, and psychological well-being in vision impairment groups living in urban centres, suburbs, and rural areas (p
