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…
