Imagine what life would be like without being able to say what you wanted. Understanding of how the world can be viewed so differently and helps to I think that the film delivers an extensive form ofĮducation and can open the mind of neurotypical people by giving them a deeper Yes, one of the main reasons I liked the film wasīecause it focuses a lot on empowering the voice of non-verbal autistic people. Into how an autistic person perceives their surroundings. The filmĮxplains a variety of communication methods and provides an in-depth insight

The film was about a non-verbal autistic persons livedĮxperience and how autism is recognised through different cultures. John’s learner, Ava McAuley, has seen the film and written the following review. It opens a window into an intense and overwhelming, but often joyful, sensory universe, a rich tapestry that leads us to Naoki’s core message: not being able to speak does not mean there is nothing to say. The film blends Higashida’s revelatory descriptions of his autism, written when he was just 13, with intimate portraits of five remarkable young people. Use of the countermovement jump without an arm swing is recommended to assess and predict the progression of player's jumping ability.īasketball countermovement jump jump shot power soft landing.Based on the bestselling book by Naoki Higashida, The Reason I Jump, is an immersive cinematic exploration of neuro-diversity through the experiences of nonspeaking autistic people from around the world. The high forces at landing, which result in considerable impact ratios, may have prompted the studied group to land softly. Both types of jumps were characterised by high mean and peak power values and average heights. This finding suggests a very high performance level in the jump shot in the studied group and a maximum utilisation of their motor abilities. Surprisingly, more advantageous variables were found for the jump shot. The variables measured included the take-off time, mean power, peak power, relative mean power, jump height, maximum landing force and calculated impact ratio.

The study was conducted among 20 second-league basketball players by means of a Kistler force plate and the BTS SMART system for motion analysis. The differences between variables provide information about the potential that an athlete can utilise during a game when performing a jump shot. The aim of this study was to compare the biomechanical characteristics of the lower limbs during a jump shot without the ball and a countermovement jump without an arm swing. For this reason, the jump shot is considered to be the most important element of technique in basketball and requires a high level of performance. Basketball players usually score points during the game using the jump shot.
