أن لعبة كرة السلة في تقدم وتطور مستمر حالها في ذلك حال الألعاب الرياضية الأخرى حيث أن الفضل في ذلك يعود إلى المعرفة بالعلوم المختلفة وكذلك البحث العلمي من اجل تحقيق نتائج متقدمة تنشدها معظم الدول ومنها العراق على الصعيد المحلي والعربي والدولي. ومما لاشك فيه أن متطلبات تطور مستوى نتائج القدرات البدنية في أيُة لعبة مرتبطة بالبرمجة والتخطيط الصحيح للمناهج التدريبية إذ تقودنا هذه الحقيقة إلى إجراء المزيد من الاختبارات بصورة دورية كونها كما أشار جونتربلوم Günter Blume (أداة لإثارة الدافع والتفوق واستمرار التقدم) ( )، ولكي يتم من خلالها الحصول على معلومات دقيقة يمكن استثمار نتائجها لغرض الحكم والتقويم والتوجيه بشكل منتظم. ويعد علم الاختبارات والقياس إلى جانب علم التدريب الرياضي والعلوم الرياضية الأخرى من الضروريات الأساسية التي يجب أن تؤخذ بنظر الاعتبار عند استخدام الوسائل التي من شأنها الارتقاء بالمستوى إلى ما يرضي الطموح مختصرةً في ذلك الجهود والإمكانيات، وقد برزت أهمية هذا العلم من خلال إمكانية التقويم الموضوعي لكل من النواحي البدنية والمهارية والخططية والوظيفية والنفسية والتربوية كمؤشرات للحالة الراهنة، وما يرتبط بها من واجبات العلم الثاني في تقديم الأساليب والطرائق المعتمدة في مناهج العملية التدريبية والارتقاء بها. أن هذا الترابط في الواجبات يساهم بصورة فاعلة في تهيئة السبل أمام التشخيص والتوجيه والتصنيف ووضع المعايير لرصد الجوانب الإيجابية والمحافظة عليها وتطويرها من ناحية وتلافي الجوانب السلبية من ناحية أخرى. وفي ضوء ما تقدم ومن اجل تحديد وتقويم تلك المعايير برز دور الخبراء والباحثين في وضع مجموعة اختبارات وبطاريات خاصة بكرة السلة متميزة بثقلها العلمي لمعرفة قدرات اللاعبين الحقيقية وصلاحية الأساليب والطرائق المستخدمة في التدريب. وبناءاً على ذلك فإن أهمية البحث تتجلى في تحديد المعايير وبصورة دورية لقدرات اللاعبين من أجل تحقيق الارتقاء بالمستوى التدريبي للمدربين والأداء للاعبين نحو الأحسن، وزيادةً على ذلك النهوض بمستوى لعبة كرة السلة العراقية.
Background: Body image is one of the most important psychological factors that affects adolescents’ personality and behavior. Body image can be defined as the person’s perceptions, thoughts, and feelings about his or her body.
Objectives: to identify the prevalence of body image concerns among secondary school students and its relation to different factors.
Subjects and methods: A cross-sectional study conducted in which 796 secondary school students participated and body shape concerns was investigated using the body shape questionnaire (BSQ-34).
Results: The prevalence of moderate/marked concern was (21.6%). Moderate/ marked body shape concern was significantly associated
... Show MoreThis paper describes the geotechnical properties of Al-Ammarah soil of Ammarah city in Messan Governorate-southern parts of Iraq. Data and other information taken from numbers of geotechnical reports that performed under the supervision of Consulting Engineering Bureau of Baghdad University. This research is devoted to study the correlation between different physical properties such as (LL, PI, LI, n,t, e) with different mechanical properties such as (qu, cc, cs, SPT). The correlation is verified using simple regression analysis. From the regression results it was found that there is direct correlation between different parameters. By using the correlation-with some information- preliminary investigation stages and studies of any s

... Show MoreIn this study, the investigation of Local natural Iraqi rocks kaolin with the addition of different proportions of bauxite and its effect on the physical and mechanical properties of the produced refractories was conducted. Kaolin/bauxite mixture was milled and classified into various size fractions, the kaolin (less than 105 μm) and the bauxite (less than 70μm). The specimens were mixed from kaolin and bauxite in ranges B1 (95+5)%, B2 (90+10)%, B3(85+15)%, and B4 (80+20)% respectively. The green specimens were shaped by the semi-dry method using a hydraulic press and a molding pressure of 7 MPa with the addition of (9-12) %wt. of PVA ratio. After molding and drying, the specimens were fired at (1100, 1200 and 13
... Show MoreIn this work, a joint quadrature for numerical solution of the double integral is presented. This method is based on combining two rules of the same precision level to form a higher level of precision. Numerical results of the present method with a lower level of precision are presented and compared with those performed by the existing high-precision Gauss-Legendre five-point rule in two variables, which has the same functional evaluation. The efficiency of the proposed method is justified with numerical examples. From an application point of view, the determination of the center of gravity is a special consideration for the present scheme. Convergence analysis is demonstrated to validate the current method.
Background: This study was conducted to evaluate the hard palate bone density and thickness during 3rd and 4th decades and their relationships with body mass index (BMI) and compositions, to allow more accurate mini-implant placement. Materials and method: Computed tomographic (CT) images were obtained for 60 patients (30 males and 30 females) with age range 20-39 years. The hard palate bone density and thickness were measured at 20 sites at the intersection of five anterioposterior and four mediolateral reference lines with 6 and 3 mm intervals from incisive foramen and mid-palatal suture respectively. Diagnostic scale operates according to the bioelectric impedance analysis principle was used to measure body weight; percentages of body fa

The study followed generation mean analysis method which included to each cross (P1 , P2 , F1 , F2 , Bc1P1 , Bc1P2) , and those populations obtained by hybridization during the first and second seasons. Experimental comparison was performed in the second (Two crosses only) and third seasons , (four crosses) by using RCBD with three
... Show MoreDuring the last two decades, nanomaterial application has gained a significant attraction into asphalt technology due to their effect in enhancing asphalt binder improving the asphaltic mixture. This study will modify the asphalt binder with two different nano types, nano SiO2 and CaCO3, at levels ranging from 1% to 7%. The resulting optimum nano-modified Asphalt will be subject to a series of rheological tests, including dynamic shear rheometer (DSR), Viscosity, and bending beam rheometer (BBR) to determine asphalt binder sensitivity towards low-medium-high temperature range. Results indicate that both nano types improved the physical characteristics of Asphalt, and 5% by weight of Asphalt was suggested as a reasonable dosage of nano-SiO2
