DESCRIPTION
The course 'Moving matters in health' introduces basic theoretical concepts and empirical methods and findings in the domain of exercise and its relation to (psychological and physiological) health. People move for different reasons, for example, because they want to reduce stress, for enjoyment, to be part of a social group, or to become more healthy. This course provides insights into the relation between health and psychological, physiological and, to a lesser extent, social aspects of exercise.
Contact hours listed under a course description may vary due to the combination of lecture-based and independent work required for each course therefore, CEA's recommended credits are based on the ECTS credits assigned by VU Amsterdam. 1 ECTS equals 28 contact hours assigned by VU Amsterdam.
