El objetivo de esta investigación fue validar la versión española del Physical Education Predisposition Scale (PEPS) en una muestra de estudiantes de secundaria. Se pretende determinar si es un instrumento válido y fiable para su utilización en futuras investigaciones. Se administró a un total de 345 alumnos (172 hombres; 173 mujeres) de 12 a 16 años (M = 14.78; DT = 1.29), analizándose la estructura del instrumento mediante procedimientos confirmatorios. Los análisis apoyan el modelo teórico hipotetizado de dos factores (percepción de habilidad en Educación Física y percepción de esfuerzo en Educación Física), así como un modelo de orden superior de tipo reflectivo. La estructura se mostró invariante respecto al sexo. La versión española del instrumento mostró niveles aceptables de consistencia interna y estabilidad temporal. Las evidencias de validez se exploraron examinando la relación de la escala estudiada con las Metas de Logro 2x2. La aproximación-rendimiento es la principal variable predictora de la habilidad entre los varones, mientras que entre las féminas es la aproximación-maestría; en la percepción del esfuerzo los resultados son similares en chicos y chicas, aunque la relación de predicción positiva de la aproximación-maestría es más potente en varones. Los resultados de este estudio proporcionan evidencias para la fiabilidad y validez de la PEPS en una muestra de adolescentes españoles.Abstract. The purpose of this research was to validate the Spanish version of the Physical Education Predisposition Scale (PEPS) in a sample of high school students. It is intended to determine whether it is a valid and reliable instrument to be used in future researches. It was administered to a total of 345 students (172 men, 173 women) from 12 to 16 years old (M = 14.78, SD = 1.29), analyzing the structure of the instrument by confirmatory procedures. The analyzes support the hypothesized theoretical model of two factors (Perceived Physical Education Worth and Perceived Physical Education Ability) as well as a model of higher order reflective type. The structure was invariant with respect to sex. The Spanish version of the instrument showed acceptable levels of temporal stability and internal consistency. Evidence of validity was explored by examining the relationship of the scale studied with the 2x2 Achievement Goals. The approach-performance is the main predictor of skill among men, while among females it is the approach-mastery; in the perception of effort the results are similar in boys and girls, although the ratio of positive prediction-master approach is stronger in males. The results of this study provide evidence for reliability and validity of the PEPS in a sample of Spanish teenagers.

This study examined the relationship of students’ goal orientation to their beliefs about what leads to success in physical education and perceptions of the purposes of physical education. High school students (N = 144,78 females and 66 males) completed a modified version of the Task and Ego Orientation in Sport Questionnaire and measures of beliefs and perceived purposes specific to physical education class. Results indicated that students high in task orientation were significantly more likely to believe that success is achieved through intrinsic interest/effort/cooperation than were those low in task orientation. High ego-oriented students believed that success is achieved when students possess high ability more so than low ego-oriented students. The high task/low ego students were most likely to reject the notion that success in physical education occurs when students know how to use deceptive tactics and were less likely to perceive that an important function of physical education is to provide an easy class.

Physical education (PE) classes are one of the primary means of adopting healthy lifestyles and contribute greatly to personal well-being. However, it is necessary that students pay attention and do not enter a mind-wandering state as this can be negative for the purposes of PE classes. Therefore, we adapted and validated the Mind-Wandering Questionnaire (MWQ) to the Spanish PE context and analyzed the influence of the teacher on this new variable. Two independent samples of high school students between the ages of 13 and 19 participated in the study. In order to assess the psychometric properties of the MWQ, various analyses were carried out. The results of the confirmatory factorial analysis (CFA) provided support for the structure of the questionnaire. The structure of the model was gender-invariant. The Cronbach alpha value was higher than 0.70 and showed an adequate level of temporal stability. In addition, we present a second study in which high school students between the ages of 13 and 19 participated, and which are independent of the first study. The analyses in this study were mainly based on structural equation modelling, and demonstrated the teacher’s influence on mind-wandering and showed that mind-wandering acted as a predictor of anxiety in high school students. The results of this study provided evidence of the reliability and validity of the MWQ in the Spanish PE context.

Introduction: This research examines intraindividual changes in 3x2 achievement goals in physical education classes during one semester, as well as the relationship of these changes with those in other motivational and outcome variables. Method: A total of 334 (178 boys and 156 girls) high school students (M = 13.12, SD = 1.05) completed five questionnaires in two different school years. Results: The results of the true intraindividual change model (TIC) provided unequivocal support for the separation of task-based and self-based goals, as well as the structures based on both valences of approach and avoidance. They also showed different intraindividual change patterns in the 3x2 achievement goals, indicating a progression in the stability of the goals depending on their definition. Intraindividual variability in achievement goals is directly related to intraindividual variability in dependent variables, with the task-approach goals TIC being the most adaptive. Conclusions: These goals should be prioritized.

The aim of this study was to compare the relationship between physical education and sports high school students' positive thinking skill levels and attitudes of learning in terms of gender and years of doing sports. The study is a descriptive method, one of the quantitative research methods. The study group consisted of 280 (age: 20.98 ± 1.390) university students from School of Physical Education and Sports in Ordu university. As a result, it was concluded that the students' positive thinking skills were at a high level, and the nature of learning, anxiety, expectation, and openness to learning sub-dimensions of the attitude tolearning scale were at high levels. It was concluded that there is a statistically significant and positive relationship between the nature of learning, Expectation, and openness to learning, and positive thinking skill from sub-dimensions of the attitude to learning scale, but there is a negatively significant relationship between anxiety and positive thinking skills

Different types of violence have been present in Mexico but there have been few studies that have analyzed their relationship with mental health in adolescents, especially in cities with high rates of social violence. It is important to compare different violence types and their relationship with mental health since not all relationships are the same. It appears that social violence has a stronger relationship with mental health, and for this reason it receives more attention, but other types of violence have a stronger relationship and do not receive as much attention. Chihuahua has been one of the most violent states in Mexico, and Juarez has been the most violent city in the world in 2009 and 2010. The purpose of the study is to compare the relationship of different types of violence (social, cyberbullying, partner violence, and child abuse and neglect) with mental health indicators (depression, anxiety, stress, self-esteem, and paranoid thoughts). There were 526 high school students, from the cities of Juarez ( n = 282) and Chihuahua ( n = 244). The mean age was 16.5 ( SD = 1.4) years and 50.6% reported being males. The relationships among the variables were analyzed using Pearson’s correlations and multiple linear regressions. Both cities that have experienced social violence like carjacking, kidnapping, and sexual assault, but they have very small or no relationships with mental health indicators. Other types of violence have stronger correlations. Our findings suggest that interventions should not focus only in preventing and dealing with social violence, but that other types of violence must also be addressed in adolescents.
