Book excerpt: El objetivo principal del presente estudio es conocer las motivaciones principales que inducen a los adolescentes andaluces a práctica actividad física. En base a las diferentes evidencias científicas constatadas se puede hipotetizar que: • Los varones destinan más tiempo a la práctica de actividad física que los escolares de sexo femenino. • El nivel de actividad física es superior entre los escolares mesomorfos, en relación a los ectomorfos y endomorfos. • En el periodo extraescolar (fin de semana) los adolescentes dedican más tiempo al ocio sedentario en comparación a los días laborables. • Los sujetos activos físicamente presentan una mejor salud que los sedentarios. • Los sujetos activos le otorgan más importancia al deporte como vehículo de mejora de sus habilidades físicas. • Los sujetos obesos valoran más la capacidad que tiene el deporte para obtener mejoras de salud, que los que tienen normopeso o sobrepeso. • A medida que los sujetos son más activos se incrementa la importancia atribuida al deporte como elemento contribuyente a la mejora de la apariencia física. La estructura del estudio diferencia varios capítulos repartidos en dos bloques: Primer bloque o marco teórico. Contiene el Capítulo I Actividad Física (correspondiente a la fundamentación teórica). Segundo bloque o trabajo de campo. Abarca el Capítulo II que aborda la metodología (diseño, objetivos, hipótesis, participantes o muestra, instrumentos, procedimiento, análisis estadístico y variables dependientes e independientes). El Capítulo III está dedicado a los resultados, el Capítulo IV comprende la discusión y el Capítulo V expone las principales conclusiones del estudio y Capítulo VI (referencias bibliográficas).

Download or read book Claves para aumentar la pr ctica de actividad f sica en los adolescentes written by Bartolomé J. Almagro and published by Servicio de Publicaciones de la Universidad de Huelva. This book was released on 2022-10-12 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La práctica actividad física muestra innumerables beneficios para la salud. Sin embargo, desde hace años, la población adolescente española es cada vez menos activa y todo apunta a que este incremento de la inactividad es más fuerte en el género femenino. En este sentido, algunas de nuestras investigaciones previas han indicado que este fenómeno se está produciendo de forma cada vez más preocupante en la localidad y provincia de Huelva, donde el número de chicas adolescentes que son físicamente activas fuera del centro escolar desciende dramáticamente con respecto a etapas anteriores. En muchos casos, la Educación Física (EF) es la principal experiencia motriz de los/as estudiantes. Por tanto, lo ocurrido durante las clases de EF puede afectar al comportamiento del individuo en su tiempo libre y de ocio. En este sentido, un aspecto psicológico clave para que la población adolescente se comprometa con la actividad física es la motivación y emociones experimentadas en la práctica de actividad física. Numerosos estudios previos informan de las diferencias en la motivación y en las emociones experimentadas por las adolescentes en relación a sus iguales de género masculino; por lo que esto debe ser tenido en cuenta a la hora de implementar intervenciones para aumentar la adherencia a la práctica de actividades físico-deportivas, tanto en el contexto educativo como en el deportivo o en el entorno social/familiar de las adolescentes. En este libro, desde la evidencia científica, se proponen una serie de estrategias claves para conseguir fomentar e incrementar el nivel de práctica de actividad física de las adolescentes, que irán dirigidas a: los docentes de Educación Física, entrenadores/monitores, entorno familiar, a las propias adolescentes, a las instituciones y a gestores de servicios públicos o privados deportivos.

This book was released on 2010-07-23 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conocer los procesos que pueden explicar por qué ciertas personas comienzan a realizar actividades físicas mientras otras no lo hacen, por qué algunos deportistas empeñan gran cantidad de tiempo y esfuerzo en la reali- zación de actividades deportivas, saber la mejor forma de conseguir un comportamiento disciplinado en las clases de educación física o descubrir qué lleva a ciertas personas a abandonar las actividades físico deportivas una vez comenzadas, son algunas de las cuestiones que interesan por igual a in- vestigadores, estudiantes, entrenadores, profesores de educación física y profesionales en general relacionados con la práctica de actividades físicas. Con la obra que presentamos al lector, pretendemos dar algunas respuestas a estas preguntas, con la certeza de que una vez finalizada su lectura apare- cerán nuevas preguntas que esperemos consigan hacer reflexionar sobre la importancia de los procesos motivacionales en la comprensión de la con- ducta humana relacionada con la practica de actividad física y deportiva. Los diferentes autores que han participado en este libro, han intentado presentarnos no sólo los argumentos teóricos que apoyan cada uno de los capítulos, sino también han realizado un gran esfuerzo por reflejar el estado de la investigación actual, los instrumentos de medida y las aplicaciones prácticas que se derivan de la elaboración de los distintos apartados. Para ello la obra se ha dividido en dos partes. En la primera de ellas se presentan las principales aproximaciones al estudio de la motivación deportiva, mientras que en la segunda parte se abordan algunas cuestiones relacionadas con la práctica físico-deportiva desde una perspectiva motivacional.

Book excerpt: Appearing on the hundredth anniversary of the teaching of psychology at the University of Nebraska, this volume represents a return to an earlier preoccupation with motivation and reflects a resurgence of interest in it.øEight professionals in psychology discuss the many sides of motivation. Mortimer Appley, president emeritus of Clark University, sees equilibrium, or homeostasis, as the fundamental motivational process. Douglas Derryberry and Don M. Tucker of the University of Oregon present a broad and basic model of motivation, viewing it as a product of the evolution and neural architecture of the human brain. Carole S. Dweck of Columbia University approaches personality development through motivational concepts, in particular goals related to self-image. Bernard Weiner of the University of California, Los Angeles, discusses the importance of one?s perception of control over the causes of a situation or problem and over its management or solution. Albert Bandura of Stanford University is concerned with short- and long-term goals as they are affected by emotional states and a sense of self-efficacy. Similarly, Edward L. Deci and Richard M. Ryan of the University of Rochester consider the bearing of self-determination on motivation and achievement.
