1914. Outward Bound and outdoor adventure education : a scoping review, 1995-2019Timothy J. Mateer, Joshua Pighetti, Derrick Taff, Pete Allison, 2022, original scientific article Abstract: Outdoor adventure education (OAE) programming is often referenced as an ef-fective intervention that encourages a wide array of outcomes in participants such as increased confidence, independence, and communication skills. However, as outdoor adventure education continues to increase globally, what does the academic literature say about the outcomes related to these programs? Hattie, Marsh, Neill, and Richards (1997) conducted the last major review of program efficacy in this realm. This updated scoping review, largely following PRISMA guidelines (Tricco et al., 2018), aims to summarize the academic literature on one of the primary outdoor adventure education providers internationally, Outward Bound (OB). Fifty-four studies, published betwe-en 1995 and 2019, have been summarized in this review. Utilizing Outward Bound International’s (OBI) framework of “people”, “place”, and “process”, themes and gaps in the literature are explored. Specifically, the OB literature has progressed since 1995 in demonstrating social and emotional outcomes in a variety of settings, a better understanding of the nature of effective programming, and further documenting the role the instructor plays in the learning experience. Recommendations are provided on developing more rigorous methodologies for future research, understanding the role of the physical environment in the learning experience, and utilizing theoretical approa-ches to integrate outdoor adventure education into broader academic realms

1917. Body composition of young soccer playersErol Kovačević, Denis Čaušević, Seth Spicer, Siniša Kovač, Ivor Doder, Slavenko Likić, Boris Metikoš, 2022, original scientific article Abstract: Purpose:The main aim of this study was to examine and analyse the body composi-tion of young soccer players across different age groups.Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out among 126 young soccer players divided into age categories: U15 – 53 players (age=14.68±0.47); U17 – 51 players (age=16.47±0.50); U19 – 22 players (age=18.05±0.38). The subjects’ height was mea-sured using an anthropometer, while their body composition was measured using the TANITA BC-420MA digital scale. Results: On average, soccer players in the U15 group had significantly lower body height, weight, body mass index and fat free mass than U17 and U19 players, but had a higher percentage of body fat (p < 0.05). In addition to the percent of body fat mass, which tends to significantly decrease with age, the results also demonstrate significant non-linear increases in body height, weight, and lean body composition concurrent with the players’ ages.Conclusion:These results indicate that younger soccer players have lower abso-lute values of morphological characteristics compared to senior players.

1918. Disordered eating attitudes, depressive symptomatology and alcohol consumption in young athletesUroš Perko, Maša Černelič Bizjak, 2022, original scientific article Abstract: Purpose: The aim of the study was to investigate the prevalence of disordered ea-ting behaviours and attitudes in Slovenian male and female categorized athletes in relation to depressive symptoms and their alcohol consumption. Methods: The sample included 198 categorized athletes between 18 and 20 years of age. The Eating Attitude Test, the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale, and the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test were used to measure disordered eating behaviours, level of depression, and alcohol use, respectively.Results: Significant differences were found between female and male at-hletes, with female athletes reporting higher levels of disordered eating atti-tudes and depressive symptoms. 13.90% of athletes reported clinically signi-ficant eating disorder symptoms, 40% reported clinically significant depres-sive symptoms, and 10.50% reported risky alcohol use.Results also showed that athletes with higher eating disorder attitudes had higher depressive levels.Conclusion: These findings have important practical value and point to the importance of building a professional team trained to recognize mental health problems in athletes in order to provide appropriate help.
Keywords: disordered eating behaviours, athletes, depression, alcohol consumption
