“…Likewise, it shows that students’ aggressive behaviour decreases with higher levels of physical activity. The findings show that adherence to physical activity helps reduce aggressive behaviour [ 47 , 48 , 49 ]. Taking into account that physical activity practice is a factor to reduce stress and release tension, it could also be said to reduce aggressive behaviour.…”

Several indicators are strongly related to health and well-being in university students, such as emotional intelligence and physical activity. At the same time, some qualities threaten it and are incompatible with students’ adaptation to society in general, such as aggressive behaviours. The aim of this research is to analyse the relationship established between emotional intelligence using TMMS-24, physical activity, using IPAQ, and aggression behaviours in university students. For this purpose, a descriptive, cross-sectional and non-experimental study was developed with 932 undergraduates (M = 20.55; SD = 3.673). The findings highlight how emotional intelligence and physical activity practice decrease violent behaviour in university students. In addition, men tend to have more aggressive behaviours than women as well as the relation between physical activity and emotional intelligence is stronger in all its dimensions. Results highlight the importance of including emotional intelligence programs in order to enable undergraduate well-being.

“…Physical Activity (PA), either free (Hyndman, Benson, Lester & Telford, 2017) or organized (Farmer et al, 2020;Georgiev & Gontarev, 2019), is thought to positively affect youth's QoL, offering a holistic framework for social-psychological-physical development (Hyndman et al, 2017;Moati, 2014). That is also the case for youth living in institutions.…”

Physical activity (PA) is thought to positively contribute to the improvement of the (poor) Quality of Life (QoL) of youth living in institutions. However, youth’s participation in PA can be affected by the “significant others” in their life. The aim of this study was to (a) investigate the impact of a PA programme on the QoL of youth hosted in an orphanage and (b) understand the role of the relationships formed in this institution in the outcome of the programme objectives. For that purpose, a mixed methods approach was adopted. The study was conducted in an orphanage in Attica, Greece. Twelve of the 13 male orphans (Mage= 13.08 ± 2.43 years) participated in a 10-week PA programme implemented in the institution. The KINDL® questionnaire was completed by the orphans and one caregiver before and after the PA intervention. The qualitative data were collected through observation and semi-structured interviews with 12 orphans and 6 members of the orphanage staff. The results showed that orphans’ QoL levels were poor; whereas a statistically significant decline in their total KINDL® scores (p= .033) and the Emotional Well-Being subscale (p= .013) was identified. Quality data revealed that orphans’ participation in the PA programme was inconsistent, although they estimated that it was valuable. Intra- and inter-personal factors emerged as barriers for PA participation. It seems that living in an institution results in deep deteriorations in youth’s QoL that cannot be surmounted by their participation in a PA programme.
