La finalidad de este estudio fue analizar la predicción de la motivación autodeterminada a partir de las orientaciones de meta y el clima motivacional que percibe el alumnado en las clases de Educación Física. La muestra estuvo compuesta por 1298 alumnos de Educación Secundaria, de ocho centros de Educación Secundaria de las provincias de Almería, Granada y Málaga, con edades entre 12 y 19 años (M = 15.13; DT = 1.43). Los instrumentos que se utilizaron para la recogida de la información fueron las versiones en castellano y adaptadas a la Educación Física de: Escala de Motivación Deportiva, Cuestionario de Orientación al Aprendizaje y al Rendimiento en las Clases de Educación Física y Cuestionario de Percepción de Éxito. Los datos se analizaron estadísticamente mediante un análisis descriptivo, de correlación y de regresión múltiple por pasos. Los resultados muestran que la mayoría de los alumnos se encuentran orientados a la tarea, perciben un clima aprendizaje y están motivados intrínsecamente. Asimismo, en chicos el principal predictor de la autodeterminación es el clima rendimiento, mientras que en las chicas es el clima aprendizaje. Palabras clave: Motivación, orientación de meta disposicional, profesor, adolescencia.Abstract: The aim of this study was to analyze the prediction of self-determined motivation from goal orientations and perceived motivational climate that students perceive in physical education classes. The sample consisted of 1298 students of Secondary Education from eight secondary schools in the provinces of Almería, Granada and Málaga, aged between 12 and 19 years (M = 15.13 , DT = 1.43 ). The instruments that were used for the collection of information were these Spanish versions adapted to the Physical Education: Sport Motivation Scale,Learning and Performance Orientations in Physical Education Classes Questionnaire and Perception of Success Questionnaire. The data were statistically analyzed using descriptive analysis, correlation and stepwise multiple regression. The results show that most students are oriented to the task, perceived a learning climate and are intrinsically motivated. In the same way, in boys the main predictor of self-determination is the climate of performance, while in the girls it is the climate of learning.Keywords: Motivation, dispositional goal orientation, teacher, adolescence.

The objective is to analyze the psychometric properties of Achievement Goals Questionnaire (AGQ) and Perceptions of Teachers' Emphasis on Goals Questionnaire (PTEGQ) in Spanish, determining the reliability and construct validity and external validity by understanding that achievement goals and perceived motivational climate in physical education may predict intrinsic motivation and satisfaction in those subjects who exercise at leisure time regularly. Psychometric tests confirm PTEGQ and AGQ have four dimensions that are hypothesized from the original one. It has proved the structural supporting hypothesis that it is based on the principle of compatibility. It has also been demonstrated construct validity and external validity as achievement goals and perceived motivational climate in physical education may predict intrinsic motivation and satisfaction in active subjects. Its reliability has been acceptable

This paper will examine the possible effects of extrinsic rewards on intrinsic motivation in Preschool to College students and argue that extrinsic rewards undermine intrinsic motivation. The Overjustification hypothesis by self-perception theory, as well as the cognitive evaluation theory (CET) will be discussed, including some of the benefits of self-motivation for learning. Various studies will be explored to show that extrinsic rewards reduce intrinsic motivation. Results suggest that students that are offered an extrinsic goal subsequently show less intrinsic interest and demonstrate poorer conceptual learning and performance in the long term. Alternately, students that are regulated by intrinsic motivations experience positive consequences at school. This paper will conclude on the note that intrinsic motivation plays a pivotal role in learning, and that teachers and other social agents can help promote intrinsic goals to motivate conceptual learning and performance, even when students hold a stronger extrinsic goal orientation. Finally, various factors that can enhance and develop intrinsic motivation will be discussed, and suggestions will be provided for further research on this topic.

Context: The motivational climate created by the athletic trainer in rehabilitation may be critical in influencing athletes’ intrinsic motivation and other psychosocial outcomes in the rehabilitation and the recovery processes. Objective: To examine intercollege athletes’ perceptions of the motivational climate in the rehabilitation setting. Specifically, examining if perceptions of the motivational climate can predict athletes’ levels of intrinsic motivation with rehabilitation as well as the relationship between perceptions of the motivational climate and athlete demographics (gender, starter status, athletic trainer gender, etc). Design: Cross-sectional, descriptive research. Setting: College sport team and athletic training center. Participants: National Collegiate Athletic Association Division II intercollege athletes from one institution (n = 187; 125 males and 62 females). Main Outcome Measures: Paper-based survey measuring mastery and performance perceptions of the motivational climate in rehabilitation, athletes’ goal orientation in sport, and athletes’ levels of motivation in rehabilitation. Results: Perceptions of a performance climate were positively related to intrinsic motivation effort–improvement (effect size = 25.34%). Perceptions of a mastery climate were positively related to interest–enjoyment and perceived competence and negatively related to tension–pressure (effect size = 39.03%). In general, female athletes, as well as athletes with a female athletic trainer, had significantly higher perceptions of mastery motivational climate effort–improvement than male athletes and athletes with male athletic trainers. While male athletes and athletes with male athletic trainers had higher perceptions of intrateam member rivalry in rehabilitation. Conclusions: The athlete’s gender and goal orientation, as well as the gender of the athletic trainer creating the motivational climate, can influence whether the environment is perceived as more mastery or performance. The recovering athletes’ perceptions of the climate in rehabilitation can, in turn, affect their intrinsic motivation toward the therapeutic interventions.
