Research Consortium Poster Session: Thematic Biophysical, Assessment, and Measurement Posters

The peer-reviewed posters selected for this session focus around the themes of: biophysical aspects of health, human performance, and aging; and physical activity assessment and measurement. The poster presentation format offers a unique opportunity for researchers to illustrate their studies graphically, using charts, photos, diagrams and text on a poster board, while also encouraging individual and small group dialogue between the study author(s) and convention attendees circulating among the poster boards.

Keyword(s): assessment, measurement/evaluation, research

Presider: Sheila Ward, Norfolk State University, Richmond, VA
