Abstract
The present study had the following objectives: i) to examine the inter-scale correlations between the three dimensions of responses (intensity, direction and frequency) of the CSAI-2R and its relationship with competitive experience, and ii) evaluate the effect of competitive experience anxiety (cognitive and somatic) and self-confidence in the total sample and for different types of modalities (individual vs. team). The sample consisted of 267 athletes (196 male and 71 female), of different sports, aged be-tween 18 and 40 years (M = 24.30, SD = 5.62). Athletes completed the Brazilian version of the CSAI-2, which included the addition of the dimensions of direction and frequency response. Spearman test and Manova were used for the data analysis. Overall, it was found that the competitive experience has a high multivariate and significant effect on the dimensions of competitive anxiety. Both individual and team athletes with low competitive experience showed a trend to report lower levels of self-confidence intensity, compared to counterparts with high competitive experience. These results were discussed in view of the theoretic framework and practical implications planning Sport Psychology intervention programs in local athletes with different backgrounds.

Abstract
This article analyzes the use of physical education in treating mental illness by describing the contributions of this area to mental health therapies. Based on several studies, the authors discuss the benefits of physical education as a therapeutic aid in reducing the symptoms of psychic disorders. The conclusion is that physical education and science can be useful to psychiatry as part of interdisciplinary efforts in the treatment of patients with mental distress.

Abstract
Non-instrumental dimensions, the aspects of a product that go beyond its ability to help achieve goals efficiently, are increasingly important in User Experience (UX) research. These dimensions, which include qualities like aesthetics and symbolism, are mainly assessed by self-reports, research has shown. However, respondents can provide wrong answers, willingly, due to concerns like social desirability and self-presentation, or unwillingly, due to the inability to access their inner states. We explored if one implicit measuring method, the Implicit Association Test (IAT), can be used to complement or replace self-report measures. Participants completed six IATs and explicit measures to determine their attitudes toward products represented by pictures of their interfaces. Two non-instrumental dimensions were assessed: valence and self-identification. Overall, implicit and explicit measures displayed a medium correlation. When comparing the correlations between the IATs for the two assessed dimensions and the corresponding explicit measures, similar strong effects were found. This suggests that the IAT bears further exploration as a complement or alternative to selfreport methods. Copyright © IARIA, 2014.
