OverviewAI-generated summary
Ruth Ann Mathis investigates the effects of exercise interventions on physical function and health outcomes, particularly in aging populations and athletes. Her recent publications explore the benefits of high-load, slow-velocity resistance training for athletes experiencing tendinopathy. Mathis has also examined methods for measuring the body's response to exercise, including chronotropic responses and the utility of non-exercise measurements as predictors. Additionally, her work includes evaluating the Functional Movement Screen's effectiveness in predicting in-season injuries among adolescent female volleyball players.
Mathis's scholarship metrics include an h-index of 3, with 8 total publications and 94 total citations. She has collaborated with researchers from the University of Central Arkansas, including James Fletcher and Melissa Allen, and from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Christopher S. Walter.
