In this paper we will present the results and analysis of the first exit poll that has been done in Serbia, or more precisely, in Belgrade municipality of Voždovac. During election day of the 2020 ...Serbian parliamentary election, we collected data from 2969 respondents in 40 voting spots. We applied number of statistical and data collection procedures in order to improve precision of predication. The collected data provided the evidence of a very accurate prediction. Beside the prediction of election results, we collected demographic data, as well as data of the timing of the making the decision to vote. Therefore, for the explorative purposes we present that data in the paper. We found significant differences among demographic categories regarding party/electoral list preferences. Additionally, we identify different patterns between SNS and Šapić voters, i.e. we found that SNS voters mostly decided to vote for this list a long time ago, while Šapić voters mostly decided to vote for this electoral list a few days before the elections. In conclusion, we discuss the possible reasons of such pattern.
This study aimed to investigate the benefits of short-term preseason skill-based conditioning on the physiological characteristics of female volleyball players from the first-division volleyball ...league over four weeks of training. Twelve female volleyball players (18.33±3.47 years; 177.25±5.28 cm; 65.38±5.93 kg) completed four weeks of game-related drills combined with physical conditioning. Physiological characteristics were measured using a 20-m shuttle run test: average heart rate (HRavg), maximum heart rate (HRmax), the maximum number of breaths (BRmax), maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max), maximum excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOCmax) and maximum of metabolic equivalent (METmax). Data collection and extraction were administrated using heart rate monitors and Firstbeat Sports software. After an initial evaluation (T0), the players were tested after the fourth week of the training cycle (T1). Heart rate average (HRavg) decreased (-1.9%; p=0.046), maximum metabolic equivalent (METmax) (14.2%; p<0.001) and maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max) (14.1%; p<0.001) increased respectively. The results suggest that the volleyball players continued improving their physiological characteristics during the study. Finally, as a major application, these data provide normative standards of physiological characteristics in the preseason for female volleyball players.
Ova studija je imala za cilj da proceni efekte kratkotrajnog kombinovanog kondicioniranja na fiziološke karakteristike odbojkašica Premijer lige u toku 4 nedelje treninga. Dvanaest odbojkašica ...(18,33±3,47 godina; 177,25±5,28 cm; 65,38±5,93 kg) završilo je četvoronedeljni trening tehničko-taktičkih vežbi u kombinaciji sa fizičkom kondicijom. Fiziološke karakteristike su merene korišćenjem 20-m shuttle run testa: prosečna brzina otkucaja srca (HRavg), maksimalni broj otkucaja srca (HRmax), maksimalni broj udisaja (BRmax), maksimalna potrošnja kiseonika (VO2max), maksimalni kiseonički dug posle vežbanja (EPOCmax) i maksimalni metabolički ekvivalent (METmax). Prikupljanje podataka i ekstrakcija vršeni su pomoću monitora otkucaja srca i softvera Firstbeat Sport. Nakon inicijalne evaluacije (T0), odbojkašice su testirane nakon četvrte nedelje treninga (T1). Prosečni broj otkucaja srca (HRavg) je smanjen (-1,9%; p=0,046), maksimalni metabolički ekvivalent (METmax) (14,2%; p<0,001) i maksimalna potrošnja kiseonika (VO2max) (14,1%; p<0,001) značajno su povećani. Rezultati sugerišu da su odbojkašice nastavile da poboljšavaju fiziološke karakteristike tokom studije. Konačno, primena ovih podataka daje normativne standarde fizioloških karakteristika odbojkašica u pripremnom periodu.
