El papel que adopte el profesor durante las clases de EF es fundamental para conseguir que el alumnado se implique activamente. El objetivo del estudio consistió en validar y adaptar la Escala Docente de Control Psicológico (PCT) al contexto español de EF, con el fin de tener una escala para medir el control psicológico del profesor sobre el alumnado y analizar la relación existente respecto a las cuatro frustraciones de las necesidades psicológicas. Para responder al objetivo del estudio se han empleado dos muestras independientes pertenecientes a varios centros educativos de secundaria. Para analizar las propiedades psicométricas del PCT se ha realizado un análisis factorial confirmatorio, una análisis de invarianza respecto al género y una análisis de fiabilidad. Para analizar la relación entre el control del docente y la frustración de las cuatro necesidades psicológicas se realizó un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales. Los resultados han apoyado la validez y fiabilidad de la estructura del cuestionario, mostrándose invariante respecto al género. El control psicológico ejercido por el docente actuó como predictor de los factores que integran la frustración de las necesidades psicológicas básicas, estando en línea con los postulados de la teoría de la autodeterminación. Abstract. The role that teachers adopt during PE classes is fundamental to ensure that students are actively involved. The aim of the study was to validate and adapt the Psychological Control Teaching Scale (PCT) to the Spanish context of PE, in order to have a scale to measure teachers’ psychological control over students and to analyze its relationship with the four frustrations of psychological needs. To answer the objective of the study, two independent samples belonging to several secondary schools were selected. To analyze the psychometric properties of the PCT, confirmatory factorial analysis, as well as invariance analysis by gender and reliability analysis were carried out. To analyze the relationship between teachers’ control and frustration of the four psychological needs, a model of structural equations was built. The results supported the validity and reliability of the structure of the questionnaire, the model being invariant by gender. Teachers’ psychological control acted as a predictor of the factors that trigger frustration of basic psychological needs, our outcomes being in line with the postulates of the theory of self-determination.

AbstractThis study was conducted toward the objective of analyzing certain factors that influence physical activity in Spanish adolescent students using self-determination theory (Deci & Ryan, 1985; 2000) as a framework. Participants included 698 physical education students whose perception of the autonomy support provided by their teachers was assessed in and out of the class context. Also assessed were social goals of responsibility and relationship with others, basic psychological needs, and intrinsic motivation, which is part of self-determination theory (SDT). Finally, the “intention” factor posited by the theory of planned behavior (TPB) and students’ rate of exercise in the last twelve months were considered. The results of structural equations modeling suggest autonomy education, autonomy support, and social goals positively predicted certain psychological mediators, which in turn positively predicted students’ intrinsic motivation, which was a positive predictor of intention, and that of rate of exercise. The results also highlight the benefit of promoting autonomy to enhance students’ physical exercise practice.

The purpose of this study was to validate and adapt to the Spanish context of Physical Education, the Spanish version of the Scale of Basic Psychological Needs in the context of physical exercise, with the incorporation of novelty to the scale. The sample that took part in the study was 2372 people from 16 to 48 years old from the province of Almeria. In order to analyze the psychometric properties of the scale, several analyses have been carried out. The results have offered support both for the eight-factor structure and for the higher-order double model where the eight subscales are joined into two constructs called frustration and satisfaction. The structure of both models was invariant with respect to gender and age. Cronbach’s alpha values were above 0.70 in the subscales and scales; and adequate levels of temporal stability. In addition, the subfactors pertaining to the satisfaction of basic psychological needs positively predicted the intrinsic motivation for physical activity, while each of the subfactors of the frustration of psychological needs predicted it negatively. The results of this study provide evidence of the reliability and validity of the BPNS in the Spanish context of physical activity.

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.

Considering the benefits that students report when evaluating physical education classes, the purpose of the present study was to analyse the relationships between the assignment of student responsibility in the evaluation, motivational variables and the satisfaction with the physical education classes, using The Theory of Self-determination as a support method. The sample for this study was 922 students, of both genres and in Compulsory Secondary Education, aged between 14 and 18 years. To carry out the study, the Student's Scale of Responsibility was used in the physical education assessment, the Basic Psychological Needs Measuring Scale, the Percentage Scale for Physical Education Causality and the Satisfaction Scale in Physical Education. The results of the structural equations model revealed a good adjustment to the data. This finding highlights the importance of giving responsibilities to the students in the evaluation process, in order to satisfy the psychological needs of the students and, therefore, self-determined motivation, thus increasing satisfaction towards physical education classes.

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 teacher’s instructions in physical education class have important implications for the psychological well-being of their students. The aim of this study was to analyze, under the postulates of the Self-Determination Theory (SDT), a model with the following sequence: the perception of the quality of the instructions (task presentation, amount of corrective feedback, and its legitimate perception) generated by the physical education teacher, the satisfaction of the three basic psychological needs and the subjective vitality in young students. The participants were 890 students (462 males and 428 females) of primary level from the metropolitan area of Monterrey, Mexico, between ages 11 and 13 (M = 11.36; SD = 0.49). The structural equation modeling showed positive and significant associations in all model interrelations, that is, task presentation and the amount of corrective feedback (B = 0.88, p < 0.001), and this in turn with legitimate perception (B = 0.81, p < 0.001); the legitimate perception of feedback and the satisfaction of the need for autonomy, competence, and relatedness (B = 0.63, p < 0.001; B = 0.90, p < 0.001; B = 1.01, p < 0.001, respectively); finally, the satisfaction of the three psychological needs and the subjective vitality (B = 0.12, p < 0.01; B = 0.43, p < 0.001; B = 0.24, p < 0.001, respectively). Therefore, the importance of a quality task presentation, as well as providing corrective feedback based on support for autonomy, is evident, so that students perceive it legitimately and thus facilitate the satisfaction of their basic psychological needs and in consequence, indicators of psychological well-being such as subjective vitality.

AbstractBackground:Accurate psychometrics benefit from assessing given constructs within specifically defined contexts. The assessment of context-specific irrational beliefs as put forth in rational emotive behaviour therapy (REBT), under the three basic psychological needs described in self-determination theory (SDT), represents a new path for research. Under the umbrella of ‘positive psychology’, a new scale for adolescents combining REBT and SDT is the first step towards conceptualizing irrational beliefs within the three basic psychological needs. The integration of REBT and SDT would provide a more fully integrated view of adolescent mental health, and as such could provide a more cost-effective approach for preventing cognitive, emotive and behavioural disturbances in young people.Aims:The main aim of this paper is to outline the development and validation of the Rational Emotive Self Determination Scale for Adolescents (RESD-A), which measures irrational beliefs about the three basic psychological needs (autonomy, competence and relatedness).Method:To achieve this main study aim, we report the results of four studies that test the factor structure, internal consistency, construct, predictive validity, and test–re-test reliability of the 51-item RESD-A, within samples of Turkish adolescents.Results:Data analyses confirmed the theoretical expectations and yielded promising results for the validity and reliability of the RESD-A.Conclusions:The results suggest that assessment of irrational beliefs in the context of autonomy, competence and relatedness is possible and valuable for the treatment of adolescents.
