ON THE FIRST DAY OF POLISH AUTUMN:
55 TH ISSUE OF ANTROPOMOTORYKA-KINESIOLOGY
AND IASK CONFERENCE IN KRAKOW
W PIERWSZY DZIEŃ POLSKIEJ JESIENI,
55. NUMER ANTROPOMOTORYKI
I KONFERENCJA IASK W KRAKOWIE
On the first day of autumn 2011 we give into your
hands, dear readers and co-workers, the newest English
semiannual version of our Krakow-Wroclaw quarterly
Antropomotoryka-Kinesiology. In the belief that there’s
a special occasion to celebrate, we would like to announce
the opening of the 12 th International Scientific
Conference “Sport Kinetics 2011” on that day.
The convergence is intended. Together with our
patron: International Association of Sport Kinetics –
IASK (celebrating this year its 20 th anniversary and continuously
run by its President, Professor Włodzimierz
Starosta, who chairs the Scientific Committee of our
conference) we are the organizers of this major scientific
event. At our invitation, Krakow will become home
to three hundred of scientists from 24 countries. At
this time scientific achievements of over 170 researchers
concerning the present and future of the science
of human movement (the main theme on which our
conference is focused) will be presented in three plenary
sessions, three extended oral session, and three
poster presentation sessions. It will be, for sure, the
largest scientific conference held in Polish University
Schools of Physical Education after the discontinuance
of organization congresses on physical culture.
Since then new generations of Polish scientists have
grown up.
The participants of our conference will have a possibility
to familiarize themselves with the tourist attractions
of Krakow as well as to become aware of
impressive scientific achievements of President IASK,
Professor W. Starosta, who is still an active researcher,
visiting the exhibition dedicated to the IASK’s jubilee in
the Library of AWF.
As it seems, taking part in the Krakow conference
may be a very significant experience, in both logistics
and... financial meanings. The last one is nowadays
even more important and, who knows, may influence
the number of participants. Financial matters have
impact not only on Polish science. Therefore we can
assume that probably only those who have something
important to say in the science of human movements
and who appreciate the value of scientific meetings are
about to visit Krakow these days. Per aspera ad astra.
Everything argues for the fact that the level of presented
scientific papers will be high. For sure, we will find
out about this soon.
Krakow conference will also provide an opportunity
to establish contacts between the participants and the
editorial board of Antropomotoryka-Kinesiology. Very
helpful in this field may be free distribution to all conference
participants the newest 55 th issue of our journal.
What do we have in it? As usual, it contains papers
of researchers from Poland and abroad.
In our opinion, the paper Probabilistic prognosis
in sport kinetics, which opens current number
of Antropomotoryka-Kinesiology, written by Prof.
Feigenberg (Israel) and Dr. Wacław Petryński (Poland),
is a piece of excellent work. The researchers adopt to
the paper’s purposes the assumption that the efficacy
of human motor performances is limited by three fac-
