Predictors of in‐school and out‐of‐school sport injury prevention: A test of the trans‐contextual model
2020
Abstract The current study aimed to predict secondary school students’ motivation toward sport injury prevention in “in‐school” and “out‐of‐school” contexts, and their sport injury prevention behavior at 3‐month follow‐up using the trans‐contextual model (TCM). Hong Kong secondary school students (N = 1566; mean age = 13.34 years, range = 11 to 19; female = 49.42%) were recruited. Participants were asked to complete a survey comprising previously validated scales measuring TCM constructs at baseline and a measure of sport injury prevention behavior at follow‐up three months later. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to examine the hypothesized paths among TCM constructs. A SEM speci…
Using physical education to promote out-of school physical activity in lower secondary school students : a randomized controlled trial protocol
2019
Background Given the documented decline in levels of physical activity in early adolescence, promoting physical activity in young people is a priority for health promotion. School physical education (PE) is an important existing network in which participation in physical activity beyond school can be promoted to the captive young people. The objective of current article is to present the protocol for a PE teacher-delivered theory-based trial to promote secondary school students’ participation in physical activity out-of-school contexts. The intervention will be guided by the trans-contextual model explaining the processes by which PE teachers’ support for autonomous motivation in the classr…
Physical education Teachers’ and public health Nurses’ perception of Norwegian high school Students’ participation in physical education – a focus gr…
2015
Background: High quality physical education programs in high schools may facilitate adoption of sustainable healthy living among adolescents. Public health nurses often meet students who avoid taking part in physical education programs. We aimed to explore physical education teachers’ and public health nurses’ perceptions of high school students’ attitudes towards physical education, and to explore physical education teachers’ thoughts about how to facilitate and promote students’ participation in class. Methods: Prior to an initiative from physical education teachers, introducing a new physical education model in two high schools in the South of Norway, we conducted focus groups with 6 phy…

Projektu balstītā izglītība kā pedagoģiskais risinājums mācīšanās motivācijas dažādībai sākumskolā
2016
Šis pētījums atklāj projektos balstītās izglītības kā pedagoģiskā risinājuma potenciālu mācīšanās motivācijas dažādībai sākumskolā. Tika izpētīti skolēnu motivācijas veidi dažās Madrides (Fuenlabradas) pamatskolās, kur izmanto dažādas mācīšanās un mācīšanas metodes, un salīdzināti motivācijas veidi starp skolēniem, kuru skolās izmanot tradicionālās metodes, un tiem, kuru skolās izmanto projektos balstīto izglītību. Sākotnēji tika izpētīti motivācijas un projektos balstītās izglītības teorētiskie pamati; empīriskajā daļā tika izmantotas aptaujas un fokusa grupa diskusijas ar studentiem, skolotājiem un ģimenēm. Pētījuma rezultātā tika atklāti pedagoģiski nosacījumi, lai nodrošinātu projektos …
Análisis de factores motivacionales en la práctica de actividad física del alumnado de educación secundaria obligatoria en un centro de Valencia
2020
[Resumen] El objetivo del siguiente estudio fue analizar la adherencia a la práctica deportiva, el clima motivacional, la satisfacción de las necesidades básicas y la regulación de la conducta hacia la práctica de Actividad Física (AF) en alumnado de Educación Secundaria Obligatoria. Participaron en el estudio 89 estudiantes, 41 chicos y 48 chicas con edades comprendidas entre 14 y 18 años, quienes cumplimentaron el Cuestionario de Actividad Física para Adolescentes (PAQ-A), el Cuestionario de Regulación de Conducta en el Deporte (BRSQ), la Escala de medición de la Satisfacción de las Necesidades Psicológicas en el Ejercicio (PNSE), Escala de medición de los Comportamientos Controladores (C…

Background Identifying psychological correlates of children’s physical activity intentions may signpost potentially modifiable targets for interventions aimed at promoting physical activity participation. School recess and leisure-time outside of school are appropriate contexts in which such interventions may be delivered. However, few studies have identified correlates of physical activity intentions in these environments. Examining correlates in these contexts may provide formative evidence on which to base interventions to promote physical activity. Purpose The current study adopted an integrated theoretical model to test relations between motivational constructs from self-determination…
Norwegian municipal rehabilitation services in transition
2018
Background: Intending to meet increased demands of health care services due to the demographic change with an increasing elderly population, Norwegian municipalities along with many other western countries over the last couple of years have increased responsibility for providing rehabilitation services. The services include integrated homebased rehabilitation and institution- based rehabilitation services. The purpose of this study: How have workforces from the primary healthcare services experienced an increased responsibility for somatic rehabilitation? Methods: The study was based on qualitative research methods. We conducted five focus-group interviews with 25 participants with professi…
Work values and the transition to work life: A longitudinal study
2015
Abstract Research on career development has shown that work values play a key motivational role in job selection and career development. In the context of the current economic crisis, it is of particular relevance to examine the role of work values for employment in the transition from school to work. This longitudinal study examined the role of intrinsic (perceived importance of having a job that is interesting and matches one's own competences), rewards (having a good salary and high chance for promotion), and security (having a stable job) work values on subsequent employment status and person–job fit (how an individual's job matches one's own characteristics such as education and job pr…
Compensating Need Satisfaction across Life Boundaries: A Daily Diary Study
2017
Self-determination theory suggests that satisfaction of an individual's basic psychological needs (for competence, autonomy, and relatedness) is a key for well-being. This has gained empirical support in multiple life domains, but little is known about the way that need satisfaction interacts between work and home. Drawing from ideas of work–home compensation, we expect that the benefits of need satisfaction in the home domain are reduced when needs are satisfied in the work domain. We tested this hypothesis with a daily diary study involving 91 workers. Results showed that individuals particularly benefit from satisfaction of their need for competence in the home domain when it is not sati…
