Motivational processes in physical education and objectively measured physical activity among adolescents

Abstract: Highlights Intrinsic motivation toward physical education was the only significant motivational predictor of adolescents’ objectively measured daily physical activity. Perceived autonomy support from the physical education teacher was indirectly related to objectively measured physical activity. Psychological need satisfaction and intrinsic motivation in physical education mediated the effect of perceived autonomy support on objectively measured physical a… Show more

“…Other findings support the application of the self-determination model in explaining the antecedents of moderate physical activity in adolescents that are measured objectively. To increase physical activity of adolescents, it must focus on increasing their intrinsic motivation towards physical education and emphasizing the importance of students' intrinsic motivation and meeting their psychological needs in physical education learning (Kalajas-Tilga, Koka, Hein, Tilga, & Raudsepp, 2019). Reducing obesity and increasing physical activity to a moderate degree can predict a short-term reduction in systolic blood pressure that is clinically meaningful for African-American adolescents suffering from obesity.…”

“…Different research studies have identified motivation in PE lessons as one of the variables that most influences students' intentions to be physically active [21,22]. Self-determination theory (SDT) [23] is one of the most used theories in the PE context to explain the underlying motivational processes in student behavior.…”

“…It has been recognized that physical education (PE) is one of the primary contexts for shaping PA habits for children and youth [7]. Research suggests that students’ perceptions of need-supportive teaching behaviors from their PE teachers are related positively to autonomous motivation for PE [8,9] and subsequently to adaptive outcomes, including higher levels of PA outside school measured via self-reporting [10,11] or objective measures [12,13,14,15]. In contrast, studies suggest that students’ perceptions of controlling teaching behaviors from their PE teachers are related to higher levels of controlled motivation and amotivation for PE [9,16,17] and to subsequent maladaptive outcomes, including higher levels of subjective ill-being [18].…”

“…Research conducted in PE has shown that autonomous forms of motivation are associated with a number of adaptive outcomes including positive affect, preference to attempt challenging tasks, greater concentration and effort, and better grades [36,37,38,39]. In addition, higher levels of intrinsic motivation for PE has shown to be related to higher levels of objectively measured daily MVPA in adolescents [15]. On the contrary, a student who is controlled takes part in PE to receive social acceptance or to avoid internal pressures, indicating introjected regulation, or to prevent confrontation with the teacher, reflecting external regulation.…”
