Abstrct
Examining the nexus between exercise modalities and the cognitive-emotional status of elderly populations residing in rural locales is imperative for enhancing initiatives aimed at mental health enhancement and policy formulation. Consequently, this investigation delved into the correlation between exercise modalities and the psychological well-being of senior citizens in rural settings, while also scrutinizing variations in this association across gender and educational strata. Employing a self-administered questionnaire encompassing demographic particulars and physical activity data alongside a truncated version of the Profile of Mood States (POMS) scale, the study was conducted across six conveniently selected villages, encompassing a total of 346 participants post the exclusion of incomplete or invalid responses. Statistical analyses were executed utilizing SPSS 21.0 and Stata 12.0 software, employing multiple linear regression techniques to scrutinize the interplay between exercise modalities and psychological states. Furthermore, gender and educational attainment were utilized as stratifying variables to discern disparities in this nexus, also via multiple linear regression modelling. The research unveiled that elderly individual engaging in intermittent exercise regimens exhibited diminished fatigue levels. Moreover, gender and educational attainment exhibited divergent impacts on this relationship, with female elderly participants partaking in intermittent exercise reporting reduced energy and anxiety levels, while heightened educational levels correlated with diminished depression and anxiety scores among those engaged in intermittent exercise, in comparison to counterparts adhering to continuous exercise routines. These findings bridge a lacuna in existing literature concerning exercise modalities, offering insights pivotal for policy development in this domain.

The advent of cinema brought with it its use as a propaganda device with which to transmit ideals and doctrines. As a result, newsreels and cinema documentaries were born with the aim of showing the «most relevant» news of the country and abroad, the former with a shorter duration. In this study, the Spanish NO-DO and «Sucesos Argentinos» are used as primary sources to interpret the images and imaginaries that were projected between 1943 and 1955 on female physical culture. The intention is to understand the official discourse of both political regimes on what Argentinean and Spanish society should be like, especially by questioning those meanings about women. In total, 69 issues of NO-DO and 14 editions of «Sucesos Argentinos» have been found which aim to show female physical culture in this period. The female physical culture shown in both newsreels was aimed at strengthening women’s bodies so that they could carry out their «natural functions» (mother, wife, housewife), as well as highlighting their «inferiority» in relation to men through lower impact activities and the homogenization of bodies through clothing, and the performance of the same exercises in synchrony. And all this in countries with different regimes, but which, in the end, coincided.
