This study, with the aim of identifying the predictive power of the five-factor personality traits of music teacher candidates on individual instrument performance anxiety, was designed according to the relational screening model. The study population was students attending the Music Education branch of Fine Arts Education Departments in Educational Faculties in Turkey with the sample comprising 256 students attending the Music Education branch of Mehmet Akif Ersoy University, Pamukkale University and Muğla Sıtkı Koçman University during the 2016-2017 academic year. For data collection in the study, the Individual Instrument Performance Test Anxiety Scale developed by Dalkıran et al. (2014) and the Adjective-based Personality Test developed by Bacanlı et al. (2009) according to the five factor concept were used. Correlation analysis was performed to test whether there was a significant correlation between the individual instrument performance anxiety of students and the five factor personality traits. Additionally, to determine the predictive power of the five factor personality traits on individual instrument test performance anxiety of Music Education branch students, standard multiple regression analysis was performed. Data were tested at the significance level of 0.05. According to the obtained data, it can be said there is a significant correlation between the individual instrument performance anxiety levels and the five factor personality traits of Music Education branch students. A positive and high level relationship was identified between performance anxiety levels and the five factor personality trait of emotional balance/neuroticism, while there was no correlation with agreeableness and performance anxiety level. Extraversion and openness to experience had a negative correlation with performance anxiety level, while there was a positive correlation observed between conscientiousness and performance anxiety. The five factor personality traits of emotional balance/neuroticism and conscientiousness positively and significantly predicted performance anxiety, while extraversion negatively and significantly predicted performance anxiety level. Contrarily, openness to experience and agreeableness were not identified to significantly predict performance anxiety level.

To determine the effects of passive male and female audiences on performance and learning of a complex, gross motor skill, 144 female freshmen were selected from 4 distinct state anxiety levels based on combined scores on the Social Avoidance and Distress Scale and Fear of Negative Evaluation Scale. Within each anxiety group, Ss learned a ball-throwing task under one of three conditions with audience. Performance was adversely affected for highly anxious Ss with a male audience. Analysis of learning scores [(final score — initial score) ÷ (maximum score possible — initial score)] indicated that none of the audience conditions affected learning at any anxiety level.

ResumoEste trabalho tem como pressuposto apresentar uma investigação voltada para a compreensão do status da disciplina Educação Física no âmbito da escola básica brasileira, no que tange à relação filosófica de sua proposta juntos aos documentos educacionais e a sua aplicação no contexto escolar, tendo como foco a relação epistemológica entre corporeidade física, dimensão intelectual e suas dicotomias. O itinerário da pesquisa contemplou uma revisão bibliográfica entre diversos autores que tratam do tema, bem como uma investigação de campo junto a doze gestores educacionais, realizada nas escolas básicas do município de Pará de Minas, MG, no período compreendido entre maio e junho de 2020. Efetuada a tabulação e análise dos dados, foi possível chegar a algumas constatações que apontam para uma desvalorização velada da disciplina Educação Física na percepção e atuação dos gestores entrevistados, tais fatos podem serem observados, quando 25% dos entrevistados entendem que a Educação Física tem um grau de importância menor na formação do aluno do que outras disciplinas do currículo escolar e, ainda, a falta de conhecimento de 33% dos gestores frente ao planejamento, assim como 8% não sabem da existência de avaliações do conteúdo. Tais análises apontaram para uma Educação Física ainda submissa a outras disciplinas escolares, apesar da Educação Física estar inserida de forma obrigatória como componente curricular.

AbstractThe purpose of this paper is to present an investigation aimed at understanding the Physical Education subject status e within the scope of the Brazilian elementary school regarding the philosophical relationship of its proposal together with the educational documents and its application in the school context, focusing on the epistemological relationship among physical corporeality, intellectual dimension and its dichotomies. The research itinerary included a bibliographic review among several authors dealing with the theme, as well as a field investigation with twelve educational managers, carried out in the elementary schools of the city of Pará de Minas, MG, between May and June 2020 Once the data were tabulated and analyzed, some conclusions were reached that point to a veiled devaluation of the Physical Education subject in the perception and performance of the interviewed managers, such facts can be observed, when 25% of the interviewees understand that Physical Education has a lesser degree of importance in the student’s education than other subjects in the school curriculum, and yet, the lack of knowledge of 33% of managers regarding planning, as well as 8% of them are unaware of the existence of content evaluations. Such analyzes pointed to a Physical Education still subject to other school subjects, although Physical Education is mandatorily inserted as a curricular component. Keywords: Teaching. Duality Body and Intellect. Elementary School. Educational management.
