The aim of the study was to analyse personality determinants related to the level of pro-health-behaviours among Polish and Spanish physical education students. The study was conducted among 219 Polish and 280 Spanish students, using the NEO-FFI Personality Inventory as well as the Pro-health Behaviour Inventory by Juczyński. Statistical analyses were performed using Pearson’s correlation coeffi cient and moderation analysis. Among the prohealth behaviours, students obtained the highest results in terms of positive mental attitude, and among personality traits, for extraversion. A signifi cant increase in the general index and some domains of pro-health behaviours together with an increase of extraversion, conscientiousness, openness and agreeableness, as well as a decrease in neuroticism, were found among all the students. The moderating infl uence of home country on personality relationships with health-promoting behaviours was also confi rmed, with an indication towards an the increase in the general index of health-promoting behaviours and/or individual domains along with the intensifi cation of agreeableness and conscientiousness, and a decrease along with the increase in neuroticism and extraversion, but only among Polish students. Regardless of country of origin, the overall index of health-promoting behaviours increased along with the rise in conscientiousness (notably among Spanish students). Signifi cant relationships between personality traits and the level of pro-health behaviours have been demonstrated, as well as the moderating infl uenceof home country on the relationship between these variables among Polish and Spanish physical education students.

A key concept of questionnaire is self-efficacy. and introduced its the Canadian-American psychologist Albert Bandura (1997). Apilot study and comparison encompass bachelor students took part in the teaching of physical education, students of bachelor studies in adapted physical education and students of the follow-up master degree in adapted physical education. The results show that students of bachelor studies in adapted physical education have higher self-efficacy than students of bachelor studies in physical education.

In order to measure the intellectual capital variable, the standard questionnaire (Bontis, 1998) was used, to measure the individual self-efficacy variable the standard questionnaire (Sherr & Mados, 1982) was used, and to assess the sport identity of the standard questionnaire (Cheslak, 2004) was used.The reliability of the questionnaires was also assessed by Cronbach's alpha test, respectively; The Cronbach's alpha coefficient for the intellectual capital questionnaire was 0.84, for the self-efficacy questionnaire 0.75 and for the sports identity questionnaire 0.8. The questionnaires were distributed among the statistical sample (181 students of physical education of Karadeniz Technique University). The findings indicated that intellectual capital with a coefficient of 0.85 and its three dimensions (human capital, structural capital, and communicative capital) as well as individual self-efficacy with a coefficient of 0.815 and its three dimensions (no interest in harassing others, desire of extending effort and different ways to face obstacles) on physical education students’ identity was significant. It can be concluded that with the increase of intellectual capital and the efficiency of physical education students, the identity of sports identity will be improved.

Present academic elitism in command, parents busy at work and increasing divorce rate, and mass media’s deviant value indoctrination result in serious upbringing problems of child, revealing the urgency and difficulty of character education. Physical education, presenting high behavior interaction, teaching students about morality, and facilitating students to present specific prosocial behavior, has been considered as an important goal of physical education. Taking a university in Fujian as the experimental object, total 204 students are preceded the 15-week experimental research with TPSR integrated sport education model. The experimental teaching research is preceded for three hours per week (total 45 hours). The research results are concluded as below: (1) TPSR integrated sport education model would affect responsibility; (2) TPSR integrated sport education model would affect exercise self-efficacy; (3) Responsibility shows significantly positive effects on cognition in exercise self-efficacy; (4) Responsibility reveals remarkably positive effects on motivation in exercise self-efficacy; (5) Responsibility appears notably positive effects on mood or affection in exercise self-efficacy. According to the results, suggestions are proposed, expecting to provide strategy and improvement reference and directions for the promotion of physical education students’ responsibility and the enhancement of students’ exercise self-efficacy.
