Abstract

The European College of Sport Science (ECSS) was established in part to promote the integrated study of sports and related phenomena from multi- and interdisciplinary perspectives. There are significant and enduring philosophical, epistemological and professional challenges and opportunities that arise from this integrationist perspective. In this article, we reflect upon the challenges that have arisen in the development of sport sciences in the attempt to realize the ECSS mission. We identify three paradigmatic approaches to sports science: (1) the mechanistic; (2) the hermeneutic and (3) the critical. We critically evaluate these paradigms and their potential within the broad framework of integrationist ambitions for sports science as a scientific field. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

Abstract

Most of the everyday human motor behavior belongs to the category of repetitive movements (e.g. cyclical locomotor behavior). Such oscillatory movements can be well described through periodicity, or in other words - regularity of timing. Research paradigm of interlimb coordination drawn from coordination dynamics and build on famous Haken Kelso Bunz model (HKB ; Haken et al., 1985) is most concerned with temporal and spatial organization of movement. HKB model, which basically capture the level of stability of the coordination pattern, anticipates two stable coordination modes, so called in-phase (PH ; limbs moves paralell) and anti-phase (APH ; limbs move opposite one from another).
