Lodewyk, Ken R.; Pybus, Colin M. – Journal of Teaching in Physical Education, 2013
Several studies have reported declining student enrolment rates in optional physical education. This study--incorporating constructs from social cognitive, self-determination, and body image theory--investigated factors that might be influential to this trend. Surveys were administered to 227 tenth-grade students from five schools in one school…

How, Yew Meng; Whipp, Peter R.; Dimmock, James A.; Jackson, Ben – Journal of Teaching in Physical Education, 2013
This study examined whether the provision of choice in physical education (PE) enhanced students' autonomous motivation, perceived autonomy support, and physical activity (PA) levels, relative to a "regular PE" control group. Students from eight intact high school PE classes ("N" = 257, M[subscript "age"] = 12.91)…
