Zusammenfassung: | The aim of the study was to investigate the relationships between situational and contextual self-determined motivation and physical activity intensity as measured by heart rates during a ninth-grade students' physical education (PE) class. The participants of the study were 139 Finnish ninth-grade students (15-year-olds). The data were collected during one 60-minute PE class held by the class PE teacher. Results revealed that more self-determined situational motivation negatively predicted the lowest heart rate category (160 beats/min.) was positively predicted by situational motivation. Lastly, highly self-determined situational motivation accounted for a significant amount of variance in mean heart rate value. Taken together, results revealed that situational motivation associated more strongly with physical activity intensity as measured by heart rate than did contextual motivation.
La relation entre motivations situationnelle ou contextuelle auto-déterminées et l'intensité de l'activité physique mesurée à partir de fréquences cardiaques lors de cours d'EPS chez des élèves de seconde Le but de cette étude est d'examiner les relations entre motivations situationnelle ou contextuelle auto-déterminées et intensité de l'activité physique mesurée à partir de fréquences cardiaques lors de cours d'EPS chez des élèves de seconde. Les participants à cette étude étaient 139 élèves de seconde finlandais (15 ans). Les données ont été collectées au cours d'une séance d'éducation physique de 60 minutes conduite par le professeur d'EPS. Les résultats ont révélé que la motivation situationnelle auto-déterminée était un indicateur négatif, de la catégorie de fréquence cardiaque la plus basse ( |
