The Relationship

El objetivo del presente trabajo fue analizar la relación entre la orientación motivacional y la percepción de promoción del bienestar hacia sus alumnos en una muestra de 92 profesores especialistas de Educación Física (M=33,97; DT=8,45). Los instrumentos utilizados fueron Perception of Success Questionnaire (POSQ) traducida al castellano por Cervelló, Escartí y Balaguer (1999) así como la Escala de Percepción de Promoción del Bienestar (EPPBE) (Guzmán y García, 2011). Los resultados mostraron correlaciones entre la orientación motivacional hacia la tarea y la promoción del autocontrol, apoyo a la autonomía, apoyo a la afiliación y apoyo a la competencia de los profesores de EF en sus clases así como de una orientación motivacional hacia el ego, relacionada con la promoción del castigo. A su vez, la orientación hacia la tarea fue predicha positivamente por la promoción del autocontrol, apoyo social, apoyo a la afiliación y apoyo a la autonomía en una línea de conductas más adaptativa en detrimento de una orientación hacia el ego, predicha de forma positiva por la promoción del castigo y, de forma negativa, por el apoyo de la competencia. Se desprende la importancia e influencia de la orientación motivacional de los profesores de EF en la promoción del bienestar hacia sus alumnos.Abstract: The aim of this research was to analyze the relationship between motivational orientation and welfare promotion perception towards their students in a sample of 92 Physical Education teachers (M=33,97; DT=8,45). The main instruments used were the Perception of Success Questionnaire (POSQ) translated into Spanish by Cervelló, Escartí y Balaguer (1999) as well as the Wellness Promotion Perception Scale (EPPBE) (Guzmán and García, 2011). The results showed significant correlations between task orientation and the promotion of self-control, autonomy support, affiliation support, and competence support of PE teachers in their classes, as well as an ego orientation towards the promotion of punishment. On one hand, a task orientation was positively predicted by self-control promotion, social support, affiliation support, and autonomy support in a more adaptive way; on the other hand, an ego orientation was predicted positively by promotion of punishment and negatively by competition support. Our outcomes emphasize the importance and influence of PE teachers’ motivational orientation in the perception of their promotion of wellness towards their students.

The Relationship

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between a principal’s transformational leadership and creative teaching behavior of physical education teachers at junior and senior high schools in Taiwan (at the individual level) and the cross-level effect on creative teaching behaviors of physical education teachers in an innovative school climate (at the school level) and the moderator effect of an innovative school climate on the relationship between a principal’s transformational leadership and creative teaching behaviors of physical education teachers. A total of 800 questionnaires were distributed to physical education teachers at 59 junior and senior high schools and 477 valid surveys were collected for data analysis. Using hierarchical linear modeling, we found that at the individual level, a principal’s transformational leadership has a positive impact on creative teaching behaviors of physical education teachers, and at the school level, an innovative school climate has a positive impact on creative teaching behaviors (at the person level) of physical education teachers. An innovative school climate at the school level has no moderating effects on the relationship between a principal’s transformational leadership and creative teaching behaviors of physical education teachers. This study provides implications and applications for cross-level studies, and builds the foundation for future multilevel research.

Academic Courses

Grounded in SDT, several studies have highlighted the role of teachers’ motivating and demotivating styles for students’ motivation, learning, and physical activity in physical education (PE). However, most of these studies focused on a restricted number of motivating strategies (e.g., offering choice) or dimensions (e.g., autonomy support). Recently, researchers have developed the Situations-in-School (i.e., SIS-Education) questionnaire, which allows one to gain a more integrative and fine-grained insight into teachers’ engagement in autonomy-support, structure, control, and chaos through a circular structure (i.e., a circumplex). Although teaching in PE resembles teaching in academic courses in many ways, some of the items of the original situation-based questionnaire (e.g., regarding homework) are irrelevant to the PE context. In the present study, we therefore sought to develop a modified, PE-friendly version of this earlier validated SIS-questionnaire—the SIS-PE. Findings in a sample of Belgian (N = 136) and French (N = 259) PE teachers, examined together and as independent samples, showed that the variation in PE teachers’ motivating styles in this adapted version is also best captured by a circumplex structure, with four overarching styles and eight subareas differing in their level of need support and directiveness. The SIS-PE possesses excellent convergent and concurrent validity. With the adaptations being successful, great opportunities for future research on PE teachers (de-)motivating styles are created.
