dc.description.abstract | The objective of this study was to determine the effects of running with a partner on cardiovascular performance and motivation. The study focused on three variables: run time, caloric output, and motivation. In order to determine the effects, healthy volunteers were placed into two groups: the control group or the experimental group. The control group ran 1680 meters twice, both times by themselves. The experimental group ran once by themselves and a second time with a partner who ran at a faster pace. Using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences, version 26, we were able to determine that running with a partner had no statistical significance on run time and caloric output. However, we determined that running with a partner made a statistically significant difference by increasing motivation | en_US |
