La Teoría de Orientación de Metas y la enseñanza de la Educación Física: consideraciones prácticas

Abstract

This study intended to analyse if the sportists’ motivational evaluation using the Theory of Goal Orientation differs according with the use of simple or combined motivational profiles, and also to know its relationship with several variables, such the level of sportive practice, or the competition and sportive success. We use the Spanish adaptation (Guivernau and Duda, 1994) of the Task and Ego Orientation in Sport Questionnaire, TEOSQ (Duda, 1989). Participants were 72 men and woman, students of Sport and Physical Activity Sciences from Saragosse (Spain). Results indicated differences between the motivational profiles considered, respect to the sportive practice variables. Finally, we discuss the practical implications of these results attending the Motivational Climate generated at the Physical Education classrooms.
