The Relationship

La motivación y la inteligencia emocional aparecen como dos importantes aspectos de la educación de los jóvenes, cuya relación en Educación Física ha sido poco estudiada. Bajo la teoría de la autodeterminación, el estudio analizó las relaciones existentes entre la inteligencia emocional (IE) y la motivación de los estudiantes en las clases de Educación Física (EF). Se utilizó una muestra de 170 estudiantes pertenecientes al primer ciclo de Educación Secundaria Obligatoria (E.S.O) de un centro de Gibraleón (Huelva). Los instrumentos empleados fueron: la versión española del Trait Meta-Mood Scale (TMMS), una adaptación para EF del Cuestionario de Clima Motivacional Percibido (PMCSQ-2), el Cuestionario de Necesidades Psicológicas Básicas (BPNS), y la Escala del Locus Percibido de Causalidad (PLOC). Los resultados del análisis de correlación mostraron relaciones entre las variables clima motivacional, necesidades psicológicas y motivación en línea con la teoría de la autodeterminación. Los factores de la IE percibida correlacionaron con el clima motivacional, con algunas necesidades psicológicas y con las diferentes formas de motivación, aunque con un coeficiente de correlación bajo. Por su parte, se destaca que en los análisis de regresión la claridad emocional predijo positivamente la regulación introyectada. Son necesarios más estudios que permitan profundizar en esta relación.Palabras clave. Inteligencia Emocional, Motivación, Educación Secundaria Obligatoria, Educación Física.Abstract. Motivation and emotional intelligence appear as two important aspects of education of young people, whose relationship in Physical Education is an understudied topic. Based on the Self-Determination Theory, the study analyzed the relationship between emotional intelligence and motivation in physical education students. A sample of 170 students from the first cycle of compulsory secondary education in Gibraleón (Huelva) was used. The instruments used were: the Trait Meta-Mood Scale (TMMS), the Perceived Motivational Climate Questionnaire (PMCSQ-2), the Basic Psychological Needs Questionnaire (BPNS) and the Perceived Locus of Causality Scale (PLOC). The results of correlation analysis showed relationships between motivational climate, psychological needs and motivation in line with Self-Determination Theory. The three dimensions of emotional intelligence (Attention, Clarity, and Mood Repair) correlated with perceived motivational climate, with some psychological needs and the different forms of motivation, although with a low correlation coefficient. The regression analysis showed that emotional clarity predicted positively the introjected regulation. Further studies are necessary to enable us to deepen our understanding of the relationship between emotional intelligence and motivation in PE classes.Keywords.

Dark Side

Amongst the main objectives of physical education (PE) classes is the consolidation of healthy lifestyle habits in young people and adolescents. Nonetheless, these classes can also provide the basis from which adverse experiences are generated which affect students’ perceptions of these classes. Previously conducted studies have focused on motivational processes and not on emotional processes, nor on the way in which students learn. The objective of the present study was to explore the dark side of the self-determination theory, its influence on emotional intelligence and the meta-cognitive strategies of students. Methodology: A total of 1602 young people undertaking secondary education participated, with self-reported ages between 13 and 19 years. The following questionnaires were utilized: Controlling Coach Behaviors Scale, Frustration of Psychological Needs in PE classes Scale, Emotional Intelligence in PE Scale and Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire. A structural equation model was developed which explained causal associations between the study variables. Results: Psychological control positively predicted each one of the sub-factors of frustration of psychological needs. Frustration of psychological needs negatively predicted emotional intelligence. Finally, emotional intelligence positively predicted meta-cognitive thinking. Conclusions: The influence and importance of the teaching style adopted by teachers is indicated, in addition to the effect of students’ psychological experiences on emotions and learning strategies.

Physical education is considered to be a favorable context for accomplishment of important educational outcomes and promotion of physical activity in children and youth. The real scope of physical education instruction largely depends on student motivation. Self-determination theory, as a specific macrotheory of motivation, offers a rewarding framework for understanding student motivation in physical education instruction. The paper presents the basic tenets of self-determination theory, the most important studies in the domain of physical education and didactic and methodical implications. Two mini-theories within the self-determination theory are analyzed in more detail, the cognitive evaluation theory and the organismic integration theory. Empirical verification of the theoretical tenets indicates the existence of typical motivational profiles of students in physical education instruction, the basic psychological needs as mediators of influence of social and interpersonal factors on student motivation, followed by the importance of motivational climate, students' goal orientations and teaching style for self-determination of students' behavior in physical education instruction. Didactic and methodical implications refer to the need for developing a more flexible curriculum of physical education, encouraging a motivational climate, task-focused goal orientations, and, especially, encouraging the perceived moving competence of the student.

Work Arrangement

Organizations are increasingly adopting non-territorial organizational models with unassigned desks. However, previous research has: (1) shown mixed results regarding the impact of non-territorial working on employees, (2) largely examined non-territorial working in its purest sense without considering the nuanced differences in non-territorial working, and (3) not understood the mechanisms underlying the relation between non-territorial working and employee outcomes. To address these research gaps, we apply self-determination theory, which argues that meeting basic psychological needs of autonomy and belonging allows optimal human development, to the physical environment of office spaces. Specifically, we investigated whether the relationship of two types of non-territorial working with employee work engagement, emotional exhaustion, job satisfaction, and affective commitment is mediated via autonomy over office spaces and belongingness. Data were collected from 127 working New Zealanders who have adopted two types of non-territorial working (i.e., work arrangement 1 and work arrangement 2) in an organization. We found that although workers with work arrangement 2 did not report higher belongingness than those with work arrangement 1, workers with work arrangement 1 reported higher autonomy over office spaces than those with work arrangement 2. Moreover, belongingness was related to higher work engagement, job satisfaction, and affective commitment but lower emotional exhaustion, while autonomy over office spaces was related to increased job satisfaction and affective commitment but decreased emotional exhaustion. We also found that autonomy over office spaces, but not belongingness, mediated the relationship of non-territorial working with emotional exhaustion and job satisfaction.

The Relationship

The present article conducts a meta-analytic review of the research adopting the perceived locus of causality in the contexts of sport, exercise, and physical education. A literature search of published articles identified three main research foci: (a) the development of instruments that assess perceived locus of causality; (b) examination of the construct validity of perceived locus of causality by investigating the relevance of the self-determination continuum as well as by using antecedents (e.g., perceived competence) and outcomes (e.g., intentions); and (c) integration of Nicholls’ (1984) concepts of task and ego orientation with perceived locus of causality. A meta-analysis using 21 published articles supported the existence of a self-determination continuum from external regulation to introjection and identification. In addition, path analysis of corrected effect sizes supported the mediating effects of perceived locus of causality on the relationship between perceived competence and intentions. Results are discussed with reference to the assumptions of self-determination theory, Vallerand’s (1997) hierarchical model of intrinsic/extrinsic motivation, and theories of behavioral intentions.

Revisión Sistemática

El objetivo de este trabajo fue realizar una revisión sistemática para conocer el estado actual del estudio de las relaciones entre los factores sociales de la teoría de metas de logro y la teoría de la autodeterminación, las necesidades psicológicas básicas y las regulaciones motivacionales, sobre la inteligencia emocional. La búsqueda se realizó en las bases de datos Web of Science, Scopus y SportDiscus. De los 62 resultados iniciales, se seleccionaron 6 artículos que cumplían los criterios de elegibilidad establecidos con anterioridad. Los resultados mostraron que la orientación de meta de aproximación-tarea, el clima tarea, la satisfacción de las necesidades psicológicas básicas y los tipos de motivación más autodeterminados se asocian de forma positiva con la inteligencia emocional. De forma opuesta, la regulación motivacional externa y la desmotivación se relacionan de forma negativa con la inteligencia emocional. Asimismo, dentro de la secuencia propuesta por la teoría de la autodeterminación, la inteligencia emocional parece comportarte como un mediador entre los antecedentes sociales y la satisfacción de los mediadores psicológicos, al mismo tiempo que parece tener un efecto directo como predictor de los diferentes tipos de regulaciones motivacionales. No obstante, son necesarios más estudios que muestren causalidad entre estas variables.Abstract. The aim of this paper was to carry out a systematic review to show the current state of research on the relationship between the social factors from the Achievement Goal Theory and the Self-Determination Theory, the basic psychological needs and motivational regulations, and emotional intelligence. The search was made in the Web of Science, Scopus, and SportDiscus databases. From the 62 initial items, we selected 6 articles that met the eligibility criteria previously established. Our findings showed that goal orientation of approach-task, task climate, satisfaction of basic psychological needs, and the most self-determined types of motivation are associated with emotional intelligence in a positive way. Conversely, external motivational regulation and amotivation are negatively related to emotional intelligence. Also, based on the sequence proposed by the Self-Determination Theory, emotional intelligence seems to behave as a mediator between social factors and satisfaction of the basic psychological needs. Furthermore, emotional intelligence seems to have a direct effect as a predictor of different types of motivational regulations. However, more studies are necessary to show causality among these variables.

The Relationship

This study examined the relationship among pupils' perceptions of the motivational climate, pupils' perceptions of teachers' strategies to maintain discipline and pupils' intrinsic motivation in physical education. A sample of 2189 Spanish adolescents, ages 13 to 17 years, completed Spanish versions of the EPCM, SSDS, and IMI. Confirmatory factor analyses were carried out to confirm the factorial validity of the scales. Then, the relationship among the variables was explored through Structural Equation Modelling. The most important predictors of pupils' intrinsic motivation were the perceived mastery climate, and perceived teachers' emphasis on intrinsic reasons to maintain discipline. Perceived performance climate and perceived teachers' strategies to maintain discipline based on introjected reasons and indifference, predicted pupils' tension-pressure. Results are discussed in the context of theoretical propositions of self-determination theory and practical issues of enhancing adolescents' motivation in physical education.

El objetivo del estudio fue analizar la relación entre diversas variables motivacionales y la calificación académica en una unidad didáctica (UD) de Educación Física (EF). Participaron 224 estudiantes, de ocho grupos, con edades comprendidas entre los 12 y 14 años (M = 12.37, SD = 0.64) durante 10 sesiones de salto con combas. Los instrumentos utilizados midieron la percepción del alumnado del clima motivacional (EPCM), las necesidades psicológicas básicas (BPNES), el tipo de motivación (SIMS-14) y las consecuencias afectivas de diversión y aburrimiento (SSI-EF) en la última sesión de la UD. La calificación en la UD de salto con combas fue valorada con una puntuación que podía oscilar entre 0 y 10. Los resultados mostraron una relación significativa y positiva del clima motivacional tarea, las necesidades psicológicas básicas, la motivación autodeterminada y la diversión con la calificación académica, siendo el clima motivacional tarea el que mayor poder predictivo mostró sobre la calificación (35% de la varianza explicada). En sentido contrario, el clima motivacional ego, la desmotivación y el aburrimiento se relacionaron de manera significativa y negativa con la calificación final en la UD. Se destaca la importancia que puede tener el profesorado de EF sobre la calificación académica de sus discentes cuando genera un clima motivacional tarea.Abstract: The aim of the study was to analyze the relationship between motivational variables, and academic grades in a unit of physical education. Two hundred and twenty-four students, of eight classes, aged between 12 and 14 years (M = 12.37, SD = 0.64) were involved in 10 skipping rope lessons. The instruments measured the perception of the students´ motivational climate, basic psychological needs (BPNES), type of motivation (SIMS-14) and the affective consequences of enjoyment and boredom (SSI-EF) in the last session of the unit. The grade at unit was assessed with a score that could range from 0 to 10. The results showed that task motivational climate, basic psychological needs, self-determined motivation and enjoyment were related significantly positively with the academic grade, being the task motivational climate which showed the greatest predictive effect (35% of variance explained). Conversely, the ego motivational climate, amotivation and boredom were related significantly negative with the academic grade. This fact highlights the importance of the PE teachers on the students´ academic grades when a task motivational climate task is emphasized.

Resumen. Siguiendo la teoría de la autodeterminación, el objetivo de este estudio fue analizar la asociación entre la percepción de apoyo a las necesidades psicológicas básicas (i.e., autonomía, competencia y relaciones sociales) y la predisposición hacia el contenido (i.e., actitud cognitiva y afectiva) que tiene el alumnado. El estudio fue desarrollado en tres unidades didácticas de Educación Física, donde participaron 77 alumnos en el contenido de fútbol sala, 75 en acrosport y 78 en rugby, pertenecientes a 4º de Educación Secundaria Obligatoria. Los resultados de los análisis de correlación y los análisis predictivos señalan una relación positiva entre la percepción del apoyo de las tres necesidades psicológicas y la predisposición hacia el contenido que tienen los alumnos, adquiriendo uno u otro mediador más importancia en función del contenido curricular impartido. En base a ello, se destaca la importancia de apoyar las tres necesidades psicológicas básicas mediante estrategias de intervención que deben ser diseñadas y adaptadas para cada contenido curricular. Todo ello puede redundar en una mayor predisposición del alumnado hacia cada uno de los contenidos curriculares que integran la Educación Física, suponiendo una mayor adherencia hacia la práctica de actividad física.Abstract. Grounded on the self- determination theory, the aim of the study was to analyze the association between perceived support of basic psychological needs (i.e., autonomy, competence and relatedness) and predisposition toward the content (i.e., cognitive and affective attitude). The study was developed in three Physical Education teaching units. The sample was comprised of 77 football, 75 acrosport and 78 rugby 4th- year compulsory Secondary Education students. The results of the correlation and predictive analysis indicate a positive relationship between perceived support of the three psychological needs and predisposition to the content. The importance of each psychological need was different depending on the teaching unit. The usefulness of supporting the three basic psychological needs through intervention strategies was highlighted. These strategies should be designed and adapted for any curricular content. This can result in a greater predisposition of students to each of the units that integrate Physical Education. It can also lead to greater adherence to participation in physical activity.

The Relationship

"Motivation is the key force that drives the individual. According to Self-Determination Theory (Ryan & Deci, 2000), human motivation is regulated by the degree to which personal intentions are autonomous or controlled. On the other hand, human behaviour is determined by three basic needs (competence, autonomy and relatedness) which contribute to intrinsic motivation and psychological health. This study has investigated the relationship between basic psychological needs and different types of motivation in an educational context. The research included a large sample of school students from 5th to 12th grade, enrolled in two schools from Cluj-Napoca, Romania (N = 363). All participants completed an online survey aimed to evaluate student’s fulfilment of their basic psychological needs, their motivation and self-efficacy regarding Romanian literature lessons. Results showed that autonomy, competence and relatedness correlated with intrinsic motivation. Moreover, the regression results showed that basic psychological needs predicted half of the variance in intrinsic motivation. The outcomes of this study also revealed that girls displayed higher scores on self-efficacy, autonomy and identified regulation as compared to boys. Keywords: self-determination theory, self-regulated learning, intrinsic motivation, basic psychological needs, autonomy, competence, relatedness, self-efficacy "
