Adaption and validation of the German version of the basic psychological needs in physical education scale

2013

It is important to understand students’ motivation regarding physical activity to investigate the global issue physical inactivity. Based on the self-determination theory (SDT: Ryan & Deci, 2002), which is one of the most important frameworks in explaining motivation, students need to be emotionally satisfied in order to put effort towards a certain goal. The Basic Psychological Needs Theory is one sub-theory of the self-determination theory, which explains that constructs of autonomy, competence, and relatedness need to be satisfied in all humans in order to increase well-being.

Toimintarajoitteita kokevien nuorten liikunta- ja urheiluseura-aktiivisuus sekä istumisen määrä

2018

Vammaisista henkilöistä puhutaan usein yhtenäisenä ryhmänä ikään kuin vamma olisi kaikilla samanlainen tai sen vaikutukset toimintakykyyn samankaltaiset. Vaikka erilaisten vammojen ja pitkäaikaissairauksien tiedetään rajoittavan ihmisten tekemistä eri lailla, liikunta-aktiivisuutta mittaavissa tutkimuksissa tai tilastoinneissa niitä ei ole useinkaan eroteltu. Syinä ovat voineet olla esimerkiksi pienet tutkittavien määrät tai liian yleiset mittausmenetelmät. Tämän tutkimuksen tavoitteena on tarkastella vuoden 2016 ”Lasten ja nuorten liikuntakäyttäytyminen Suomessa” (LIITU) -tutkimuksen aineistossa toimintarajoitteisuutta, liikunta-aktiivisuutta, liikuntaseuraan kuulumista ja istumisen määrää…

The effectiveness of the HIPPA intervention in the sociocultural environment of ECEC physical activity

2023

Studies have shown that, on average, children’s physical activity (PA) levels in early childhood education and care (ECEC) environments are low, thus opening up the possibility of interventions. We examined the effect of the teacher-implemented one-year long ‘home-and-childcare-based intervention to promote physical activity’ (HIPPA) study on children’s PA in ECEC settings in Finland. Participating four-year-old children (N = 128) were cluster-randomised into two groups, intervention (seven childcare centres) and control (seven childcare centres), in autumn 2011. The children were observed directly during their ECEC times. Multilevel linear analysis was used to test the PA differences betwe…

2022

This is a pre-print of a published study: Renko, E., Koski-Jännes, A., Absetz, P. et al. A qualitative study of pre-service teachers’ experienced benefits and concerns of using motivational interaction in practice after a training course. Humanit Soc Sci Commun 9, 458 (2022). https://doi.org/10.1057/s41599-022-01484-y Despite its positive effects on physical activity promotion, motivational style of interaction by health professionals is not easily taken up, as shown by meta-analyses of training courses. The concerns professionals experience for taking up the novel skills remain an open question. Preservice physical education teachers were offered a 16-hour training course on motivational i…

Significant in life : Core learning outcomes of a social and emotional course in physical education teacher education

2022

The purpose of the study is to explore physical education (PE) students’ social and emotional learning (SEL) and the meaningful learning experiences during the SEL course. In the teaching profession, understanding SEL is important because the guidance of learning and group dynamics is essentially an interactive social process. Further, previous research shows that focusing on socioemotional skills promotes students’ academic achievement. Teachers’ SEL skills can be developed by training. In PE teacher education annually, 60 first-year-students participate in a 20-hours SEL skills course based on Gordon’s interaction model and SEL concepts. The course consists of practising SEL skills such a…
