Pereira, Paulo; Marinho, Daniel A.; Santos, Fernando
Journal of Physical Education, Recreation & Dance, v92 n6 p42-47 2021
Physical activity levels and participation in sport-related activities is, in many cases, decreasing. This decrease has been associated with the quality of physical education, which in turn may be determined by the motivational climate. This article aims to provide practical applications, derived from self-determination theory, that may help physical education teachers foster a self-determined motivational climate that leads to engagement in physical education, physical activity, and sport activities across age groups.
