Efecto de la Intervención Docente en la Percepción de Competencia y Motivación de Futuros Maestros de Primaria en Educación Física Utilizando la Eval…
2018
The purpose of this study was to examine the perceived effect of a physical education teaching intervention by applying formative and shared assessment. The experiment was applied to 340 volunteers (239 women), divided into control (n = 206) and intervention (n = 134) groups. A test and a retest (after the trial) were conducted to assess perceived competence in assessment and motivation in physical education. The intervention was found to have a significant effect on motivation (p < 0.001), but not on perceived competence (p > 0.05). After the teaching period, an increase in the motivation of the intervention group and a decrease in the motivation of the control group were noted. We c…
The association of depression and all-cause and cause-specific mortality: An umbrella review of systematic reviews and meta-analyses
2018
Background Depression is a prevalent and disabling mental disorder that frequently co-occurs with a wide range of chronic conditions. Evidence has suggested that depression could be associated with excess all-cause mortality across different settings and populations, although the causality of these associations remains unclear. Methods We conducted an umbrella review of systematic reviews and meta-analyses of observational studies. PubMed, PsycINFO, and Embase electronic databases were searched through January 20, 2018. Systematic reviews and meta-analyses that investigated associations of depression and all-cause and cause-specific mortality were selected for the review. The evidence was g…

The Role of Preschool Hours in Achieving Physical Activity Recommendations for Preschoolers
2021
Research on physical activity (PA) in different educational settings could elucidate which interventions promote a healthy school lifestyle in early childhood education (ECE). The aims of this study were: (a) to analyse the PA levels of preschoolers during school hours, as well as the rate of compliance with specific recommendations on total PA (TPA) and moderate-vigorous PA (MVPA)
Intervention Programs to Promote the Quality of Caregiver–Child Interactions in Childcare: A Systematic Literature Review
2021
Sensitive caregiver–child interactions appear fundamental throughout childhood, supporting infants’ wellbeing and development not only in a familial context but in professional caregiving as well. The main aim of this review was to examine the existing literature about Early Childhood Education Context (ECEC) intervention studies dedicated to caregiver–child interaction, fostering children’s socioemotional developmental pathways. Studies published between January 2007 and July 2021 were identified in four electronic databases following PRIMSA guidelines. The initial search yielded a total of 342 records. Among them, 48 studies were fully reviewed. Finally, 18 of them met all inclusion crite…
The expansion of early childhood development services and the need to reconceptualize evidence
2017
The provision of early childhood development services is expanding in developing countries. The rationale behind this expansion is rooted in developmental psychology, socio-economic and human rights narratives. However, there are some limitations to this rationale, which are in particular related to the implicit universalism it assumes. This article outlines how early childhood development interventions imply a policing of families and childhood, which calls for a stronger consideration of context. As a consequence, the scope of what counts as evidence in early childhood development research needs to be questioned. The article is a theoretical contribution to the discourse of what early ch…
Adaptation and implementation of the German social-emotional learning programme Papilio in Finland : A pilot study
2019
This study investigated the cross‐national adaptation and implementation of Papilio, a German social–emotional learning programme, in Finnish early childhood education and care (ECEC) centres. Papilio is a developmentally focused, scientifically based intervention programme focused on preventing behavioural problems and fostering social–emotional competence in children aged 3–7. The aim of this study was to investigate and evaluate the cross‐national adaptation and cross‐cultural adaptation and implementation of Papilio in the Finnish ECEC context. Results from qualitative interviews with one Finnish Papilio trainer, 11 early childhood education (ECE) teachers, two ECE special education tea…
¿Qué aprenden unos estudiantes en una experiencia formativa de Didáctica de las Ciencias Experimentales en el Grado de Educación Infantil?
2020
Esta investigación pretende conocer si evolucionan los conocimientos iniciales de unas maestras de Educación Infantil en su formación inicial en el ámbito de la didáctica de las ciencias. La experiencia se realizó con estudiantes de 3º del Grado de Educación Infantil, tras trabajar la propuesta “Cómo enseñar el cuerpo humano y los hábitos saludables en Educación Infantil”. Se utilizó un diseño cuantitativo no experimental con pretest y postest. Los resultados ponen de manifiesto los logros conseguidos, pero también revelan, de modo preocupante, las carencias con la que llegan y la insuficiente evolución tras esta primera intervención. Esto supone una llamada de atención para plantearnos qué…
Developing preschoolers' social skills through cross-cultural physical education intervention
2013
The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes in children's social skills after their participation in a physical education programme named ESPEC (‘Early Steps’ Physical Education Curriculum). The evaluators of the children's social skills were the trained educators who implemented the curriculum as well as parents of the participating children. This study was conducted in three European countries and was part of a European transnational project. The participants were 286 preschoolers from Cyprus, Greece and Italy. Twelve educators and 286 parents completed the ‘Social Behaviour Instrument’ (SBI) before and after the implementation of the ESPEC. This four months’ physical educati…
Creating teacher capacity in Early Childhood Education and Care institutions implementing an authoritative adult style
2017
The being together intervention intends to raise teacher capacity in Norwegian Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) institutions and promote social and emotional development in preschoolers by implementing an authoritative (warm and predictable) adult style in the institution. An authoritative adult balances between building up high quality interactions with children, while at the same time having a predictable structure with clear norms and social expectations in the learning environment. The purpose of this study was to investigate what helped the ECEC institutions to successfully implement the program principles and core components, and what were the challenges. The staff groups of …
