Åsebø, Eli-Karin Sjåstad; Løvoll, Helga Synnevåg – Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy, 2023
Background: Research has shown that students experience less stress in physical education (PE) than in other school subjects; some even find it stress-relieving. Nevertheless, there is a substantial group of students who regularly experience stress in PE. Knowledge of stressors and the attributes of different coping strategies to deal with those…

Åsebø, Eli-Karin S.; Løvoll, Helga S.; Krumsvik, Rune J. – European Physical Education Review, 2022
The purpose of this study is to explore students' perceptions of visibility in physical education (PE) using a single cumulative case study approach. Data were generated from the descriptive field notes of seven participant observations (n = 77), individual semi-structured interviews (n = 13) and five focus group interviews (n = 18) with…

Alexander Jansson; Gunilla Brun Sundblad; Suzanne Lundvall; Johan R. Norberg – Sport, Education and Society, 2024
School grades are among the most common measurements used to analyze equality of outcome in education. Large or increasing 'gaps' in school grades between boys and girls and between students with different migration background are considered strong indicators of inequality. Based on students' school grades, several studies have shown that equality…

Roure, Cédric; Pasco, Denis – Journal of Teaching in Physical Education, 2023
Purpose: The context personalization approach refers to matching educational content with characters, objects, and themes of students' out-of-school interests. Considering the positive effects of individual interest on the regulation of student-incontext experiences, this study used the context personalization approach to match physical education…

Miller, Brenna Cosgrove; Edwards, Elizabeth S.; Nye, Susan – Physical Educator, 2022
In comparison to children, adolescents achieve significantly less physical activity (PA). Additionally, activity differences exist among genders and race/ethnicities. One means of influencing the PA habits of adolescents is high school physical education. Although PE class reaches students of all ages, genders, and races, motivation and…

Jansson, Alexander; Brun Sundblad, Gunilla; Lundvall, Suzanne; Norberg, Johan – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2019
Although students' perceived learning is central in physical education (PE), few measurements are available. Furthermore, little is known about how students' perceptions of PE effect students' perceived learning in PE. Therefore, the aim was to develop a scale to assess students' perceived learning and a measurement to assess students' perceived…

Hill, Grant M.; Najera, Wendy – Physical Educator, 2020
This study explored the effectiveness of a stretching program on hamstring extensibility among Latino high school students in a physical education (PE) setting. Students, aged 13 to 15, in five required PE classes were assigned to either an experimental group (n = 60) or a control group (n = 42). Experimental students performed a 3-min stretching…

Thomason, Diane L.; Feng, Du – Journal of School Health, 2016
Background: Measuring adolescent perceptions of physical education (PE) activities is necessary in understanding determinants of school PE activity participation. This study assessed reliability and validity of the Physical Education Activities Scale (PEAS), a 41-item visual analog scale measuring high school adolescent perceptions of school PE…

Säfvenbom, Reidar; Haugen, Tommy; Bulie, Marte – Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy, 2015
Background and purpose: Due to attitudinal and motivational aims in the national curriculum, and to lack of research on adolescents' experiences with physical education (PE) in Norway, the purposes of this study were to (1) attain data on attitudes toward PE and self-determined motivation for PE among a representative sample of adolescents (N =…

Liu, Yang; Chen, Senlin – Journal of Teaching in Physical Education, 2020
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to capture students' essential knowledge and behaviors concerning active living. Methods: Students (N = 1,079) from elementary, middle, and high schools in the United States reported their knowledge of physical activity and fitness (PAF knowledge), and physical activity and sedentary behavior using…

Plangg, Simon; Fuchs, Karl Josef – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2022
Using robot programming activities for learning in the classroom is one way to drive interest and engagement in the STEM field among students, especially girls. And this is afield that is particularly characterized by an underrepresentation of women. Accordingly, many countries are increasingly integrating activities related to computer science…

Lloyd, Rebecca – Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy, 2015
Background: Physical Education (PE) programmes are expanding to include alternative activities yet what is missing is a conceptual model that facilitates how the learning process may be understood and assessed beyond the dominant sport-technique paradigm. Purpose: The purpose of this article was to feature the emergence of a Function-to-Flow (F2F)…
