This study examined whether there are differences in players’ and coaches’ perceptions of motivational style according to gender and age group. A total of 601 young Spanish water polo players aged 13-18 years (M=14.74; SD=1.36; 69% boys) and their coaches (n=58; 93% male) participated. Both coaches’ and players’ perceptions of need-supportive and c...

Grounded in self-determination theory, an integrative and fine-grained circumplex model, based on teachers’ autonomy support, structure, control, and chaos, has been proposed. The present study aimed to examine possible differences in students’ perceptions of physical education (PE) teachers’ motivating and demotivating styles and the eight differe...

In most self-determination theory (SDT) research, improving (de)motivating teaching styles provides numerous benefits for students and teachers, although there is less evidence of the latter. Although the recent circumplex model provides a fine-grained picture of the different (de)motivating teaching styles (i.e., autonomy support, structure, contr...

Building upon self-determination theory and the circumplex approach, the objective of this study was to adapt the Situations-in-School-Physical Education (SIS-PE) questionnaire and to gather validity and reliability evidence in the Spanish PE context. Three samples of 1441 students (46.43% girls), 473 in-service teachers (35.73% women), and 654 pre...

Background: Consistent with self-determination theory (SDT), teachers may differ in the motivating style used to motivate students in physical education (PE). When relying on need-supportive behaviors, teachers attempt to provide students with opportunities for choices and initiative (autonomy support), valuable information and feedback (competence...

Background: Physical inactivity, excessive sedentary time and lack of sleep time have been independently associated with lower health-related physical fitness. However, little is known about the combined association between 24-Hour Movement Guidelines (i.e., physical activity, recreational screen time and sleep duration) and components of physical...

El recreo escolar es un espacio ideal para el incremento de la actividad física (AF). Sin embargo, existe un número limitado de estudios que hayan examinado los niveles de AF y el tiempo sedentario en los recreos, especialmente en España y en alumnado de Educación Secundaria Obligatoria (ESO).

Although the benefits associated with a healthy lifestyle are known, a large percentage of young people do not comply with the established recommendations for the different healthy behaviors, especially during Covid-19. Thus, the aim of this study was to design, implement, and evaluate the effects of a multicomponent and multilevel school-based pro...

Active commuting to/from school (ACS) is an efficient manner to increase daily physical activity (PA) levels. However, there seems to be no consensus on the best methodology to accurately assess ACS-PA. Therefore, this systematic review aimed (1) to compile and review the methodologies used in device-measured ACS-PA in young people, including the d...

Children and adolescents acquire different habits as they grow up. Some of these habits are closely related to health, so acquiring healthy habits can greatly help them lead a healthy and peaceful life in the future, while bad habits can be detrimental to them. For that reason, it is necessary that from the different educational institutions, we he...
