Through video recording, clinicians have the ability to further analyze their clients, being provided with micro and macro expressions, vocal cues and body language. The objective of the research is to test whether the size and positioning of a video camera affects the client’s levels of tension while under surveillance and simultaneously receiving therapy. By utilizing contrasting recording methods, it is predicted that the client will feel more comfortable in front of an inconspicuous, wall...
Show moreThrough video recording, clinicians have the ability to further analyze their clients, being provided with micro and macro expressions, vocal cues and body language. The objective of the research is to test whether the size and positioning of a video camera affects the client’s levels of tension while under surveillance and simultaneously receiving therapy. By utilizing contrasting recording methods, it is predicted that the client will feel more comfortable in front of an inconspicuous, wall-mounted camera as opposed to the tripod-mounted camera. The results of this research have the potential to revolutionize the methods used by the therapy and counseling community to further analyze their clients as well as psychotherapeutic methods. Data will be collected from a total of four clients’ fourth sessions in order to rule out anxiety experienced as a result of adjusting to a new therapeutic relationship or other factors inherent to a therapeutic session.

Abstract/Description

The primary purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of aerobic and resistance training on BDNF and IGF-I expression in a 3xTg-AD mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease. Twenty-four 3xTg-AD mice were randomly assigned to either an aerobic (AT, n=8), resistance (RT, n=8), or control (CNT, n=8) group. Intervention groups underwent 9 weeks of exercise training. Motor behavior and grip strength were measured pre- and post- intervention. Our results showed a significant increase in...

Twenty-four 3xTg-AD mice were randomly assigned to either an aerobic (AT, n=8), resistance (RT, n=8), or control (CNT, n=8) group. Intervention groups underwent 9 weeks of exercise training. Motor behavior and grip strength were measured pre- and post- intervention. Our results showed a significant increase in hippocampal BDNF expression in AT mice after a 9-week intervention. Further, AT mice were found to have higher concentrations of IGF-I, and improved motor behavior when compared to RT and CNT. No significant differences were observed in IGF-I concentration between RT and other groups. RT improved grip strength after nine weeks of training. These findings support the use of AT and RT as a tool to improve comorbidities found in Alzheimer’s disease.
