“…It is important to pay attention to your emotions, because not doing so can lead to some symptoms of depression. In terms of the physical self-concept, Linares-Manrique et al ( 2016) [43] states that men have a superior appreciation of themselves in terms of physical ability, physical condition, strength, and physical attractiveness.…”

The university stage comprises a very important and vital period in the modification of students’ lifestyles, and these changes can affect their self-concept. The excessive use of technology today can also influence the formation of their identity. The aim of this study is to analyze the relationship between self-concept and the use of the smartphone by university students in terms of gender. The sample included 253 students (mean age 21.39 ± 3.27) of the Primary Education Degree of the University of Jaén (106 men and 147 women). A questionnaire was used to unify several instruments: a sociodemographic questionnaire, a Self-Concept Form-5 questionnaire (AF-5), and a questionnaire on cell phone-related experiences (CERM). The results show the existence of significant differences between both genders in the academic, emotional, and social dimensions of self-concept, with women showing a greater academic self-concept and men showing an emotional and physical one. Regarding the use of the smartphone in relation to self-concept, significant differences are found in the academic and emotional dimensions depending on the degree of use. In addition, in relation to the use of the smartphone, it has been detected that half of the students present potential problems. It is concluded that there is a relationship between both constructs, especially the academic and emotional self-concept.

There is an increase in sedentary lifestyles among young people. However, the development of a certain motivational climate can play a key role in the prevention of such lifestyles. Taking into account the aforementioned, the present research aims to establish the relationship between the motivational climate towards sport, anxiety and physical self-concept and to identify and clarify the existing relationships between anxiety, motivational climate and physical self-concept, by breaking down this objective into (a) developing an explanatory model of the motivational climate towards sport and its relationship with anxiety and physical self-concept and (b) contrasting the structural model by means of a multi-group analysis, according to the time spent doing physical activity per week. For this purpose, a cross-sectional descriptive and comparative study was carried out with a total of 568 university students (M = 25.09; SD = 6.22). A sociodemographic questionnaire, the Spanish version of the Perceived Motivation Climate Questionnaire in Sport, the Self-Concept Form-5 and the Beck Anxiety Inventory were used for data collection. The results show that more time spent doing physical activity brings benefits in terms of physical self-concept and homework climate, helping to reduce anxiety levels. As conclusions, it is observed that a longer time spent doing physical activity brings benefits in the channelling of disruptive states and improvements in physical self-concept.

“…Self-concept plays a crucial and central role in the development of personality, as noted in the main psychological theories; a positive selfconcept is the basis of good personal, social and professional functioning, depending on it, largely, the personal satisfaction, and feeling good about yourself. In particular, physical self-concept proves to be a good indicator of mental health and adjustment with life (Goñi, 2009, Goñi & Infante, 2010Linares-Manrique et al, 2016;Olmedilla, Ortega-Toro, & Abenza, 2016;Reigal, Videra, Parra & Juárez, 2012) since feeling comfortable with our body helps to generate positive feelings.…”

Abstract. The present study analyses the psychometric properties proposed by Blanco, Blanco, Viciana, and Zueck (2015) for the Physical Self-Concept Scale (CAF). The total sample consisted of 1,500 Mexican university students, with a mean age of 20.69 years (± SD = 2.33). Confirmatory factorial analyses showed that a two-factor structure is viable and adequate for both studied groups (men and women). The structure of two factors (motor competence and physical attractiveness), according to statistical and substantive criteria, has shown adequate indicators of reliability and validity adjustment. In addition, the factorial structure, factor loads and intercepts are considered invariant in the two groups studied. However, differences between the two groups for the factor means were found. Further research should replicate these findings in larger samples.Resumen. El presente estudio analiza las propiedades psicométricas propuestos por Blanco, Blanco, Viciana y Zueck (2015) para la escala de autoconcepto físico (CAF). La muestra total fue de 1500 universitarios mexicanos, con una edad media de 20.69 años (± DE=2.33). Los análisis factoriales confirmatorios mostraron que una estructura de dos factores es viable y adecuada para ambos grupos (hombres y mujeres). La estructura de dos factores (competencia motora y atractivo físico), atendiendo a criterios estadísticos y sustantivos, ha mostrado adecuados indicadores de ajuste de fiabilidad y validez. Además, la estructura factorial, las cargas factoriales y los interceptos se consideran invariantes en las dos poblaciones estudiadas; sin embargo, existen diferencias entre las poblaciones para las medias de los factores. Futuras investigaciones deberían replicar estos hallazgos en muestras más amplias.
