Exploratory behaviour during improvisation tasks
Expertise affects speed and variability in motor pattern transitions during improvisation • Mirror use slows transitions; pairs reduce its influence via collaboration • Task design and expertise shape creative exploration in dance improvisation The study of creativity in physical activity and sport sciences has increased in recent years, reflecting a growing interest in understanding how creative behaviour emerges in practice. In this line, parti…
El desarrollo de la Expresión Corporal en España
El desenvolupament de l’Expressió Corporal a Espanya ha estat estretament vinculat l’àmbit educatiu, especialment a la formació del professorat d’Educació Física. En aquest context, la trajectòria docent i investigadora de Mercè Mateu ha tingut una influència significativa en la consolidació de l’Expressió Corporal com a camp de coneixement i com a contingut específic de l’educació física, així com en la pràctica pedagògica orientada a la formaci…
The interplay of dance and creativity as a pathway to health and well-being
BACKGROUND: Dance is increasingly recognized as a resource for promoting health and well-being. However, research has historically prioritized structured interventions, leaving creative-based dance, emphasizing participant agency and movement generation, comparatively underexplored. This narrative review addresses the intersection of dance, creativity, and health and well-being to clarify the distinctive contribution of creative-based dance acros…
The Exploration of the Holistic and Complex Impacts of Creative Dance on Creative Potential Enhancement
Interest in nurturing individuals' creative potential is rising. Yet, the potential benefits of incorporating creative embodied activities have been neglected in both applied and research settings. To address this gap, this study examined the effects of a Creative Dance program on university students' creative self‐efficacy, emotional creativity, tolerance to ambiguity, and ideation behaviors. A total of 143 undergraduate students participated, e…
How to Take a “Portrait” of Interpersonal Synergies Formation? – Exemplar Data with Expert Badminton Doubles
In the last decades, previous research regarding interpersonal synergies formation has emerged under the Uncontrolled Manifold concept, identifying synergies formation based on a single combination of task elements. However, in social systems with redundant degrees of freedom, several combinations to stabilize a performance goal may be the most common picture. Thus, the main goal of this explorative study was to create a “portrait” of a set of ta…
The motor creativity paradox
Exploratory Behavior and the Temporal Structure of Soccer Small-Sided Games to Evaluate Creativity in Children
In this work, the position of the goals was modified to analyze the effects on the exploratory behavior and the team tactical pattern, which can be meaningful variables to study creativity in team sports. Twenty-four male soccer school players under the age of 12 participated in this study. Participants were divided into four teams of one goalkeeper and 5 players. Each team played six small-sided games of 5 min in three different goals positionin…
