Mood and self-efficacy during acute exercise in clinical depression. A randomized, controlled study

Article Abstract:

The changes in mood following exercise sessions with high and stable self-efficacy (stationary bike exercise) to exercise sessions with initially low but increasing self-efficacy (martial arts) were compared. Statistically significant increases in positive affect, reductions in negative affect and state anxiety and increased self-efficacy was observed during martial arts while during the stationary bike exercise no statistically significant changes were found.

The effects of augmented auditory feedback on psychomotor skill learning in precision shooting

Article Abstract:

The effectiveness of augmented auditory feedback on the performance and learning of a precision shooting task is examined. The findings suggest that a non-elite shooter's performance can be improved with a 4-week auditory feedback treatment.
