Cross-cultural adaptation and psychometric evaluation of the Engaged Teachers Scale among Arabic-speaking physical education teachers
Background Teacher engagement is a positive psychological state characterized by vigor, dedication, and absorption in professional activities, representing the opposite of burnout. While research has established the importance of engagement for teacher effectiveness, wellbeing, and student outcomes, validated measurement tools for assessing engagement among physical education teachers in Arabic-speaking contexts are lacking. This study addresses …
Adaptation and validation of the Collective Efficacy Questionnaire for Sport (Ceqs) in Arabic
The Arabic adaptation of the CEQS addresses the pressing need in sports psychology, allowing assessment of collective efficacy in Arabic-speaking teams and facilitating cross-cultural comparisons of team dynamics. This study undertook a rigorous translation and back-translation process for the CEQS, engaging athletes from a variety of sports in both exploratory (n = 477) and confirmatory (n = 510) phases. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analy…
Position-specific biomarker responses to match vs. Vameval test modalities in elite female soccer players
To examine the effects of exercise type (competitive match vs. VAMEVAL test) and playing position on biomarker responses in elite female soccer players, twenty-one athletes (seven each: defenders, midfielders, attackers) participated in this cohort-based study. Blood samples were collected before and 3 minutes after both a competitive match and VAMEVAL test, analyzing 19 biomarkers including metabolic, lipid, protein, inflammatory, and immune par…
Verbal encouragement during strength and endurance assessments
Research supports using verbal encouragement (VE) to improve performance in strength and endurance exercises. However, there is still a gap in understanding how the gender of the coach or teacher affects the efficacy of VE. This study examines whether the teacher's gender influences performance in strength and endurance assessments among male and female student-athletes. In a crossover randomized controlled design, 16 male and 16 female student-a…
A comparative analysis of autograft choices of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and their effects on muscle strength and joint biomechanics
IntroductionAnterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is crucial to restore knee stability and function after ACL injuries, especially in physically active individuals. Despite advances in surgical techniques and rehabilitation protocols, the choice of autograft has a significant impact on postoperative recovery, particularly on muscle strength and joint biomechanics. In this study, the effects of four autografts are investigated: Iliotibi…
Cross-cultural adaptation and validation of an Arabic version of the Cognitive-Affective Mindfulness Scale (Cams-R)
No Arabic version of the Revised Cognitive-Affective Mindfulness Scale (CAMS-R) was found, prompting this study’s threefold objectives: first, to validate an Arabic translation of CAMS-R among Tunisian students; second, to assess its factor structure and reliability; and third, to explore its validity by investigating the relationship between CAMS-R scores, grit, and academic success. Cross-sectional online data were collected from 705 university…
Examining the interplay between physical activity, problematic internet use and the negative emotional state of depression, anxiety and stress
Findings suggest that relationships between PIU and negative emotional state of depression, anxiety and stress are mediated via physical exercise. These results underscore the importance of the physical activity factor in the studies analyzing longitudinal effects of PIU on mental health outcomes
ChatGPT is not ready yet for use in providing mental health assessment and interventions
As for July 2023, ChatGPT failed to give the simple medical advice given certain clinical scenarios. This supports that the quality of ChatGPT-generated content is still far from being a guide for users and professionals to provide accurate mental health information. It remains, therefore, premature to conclude on the usefulness and safety of ChatGPT in mental health practice
Exploring the impact of verbal encouragement on strength, endurance, and psychophysiological responses
Introduction This study investigates the effects of teacher verbal encouragement (VE) on strength, endurance, and psychophysiological responses, aiming to enhance teaching strategies in sports science education. Methods Forty-eight sports science students, aged 21.3 ± 0.5 years, participated in this study. The sample was randomly divided into two groups, and a counterbalancing procedure was implemented. Participants completed strength and enduran…
Reliability and validity of the Arabic version of coach-athlete relationship questionnaire
This study had a twofold purpose: (a) to create an Arabic version of the Coaches-Athletes Relationship Questionnaire (CART-Q) and (b) to assess its psychometric qualities in the context of Tunisia, as well as its sensitivity in other sports populations. The researchers conducted an online survey of 594 amateur athletes from different sports clubs in Tunisia. For the exploratory factor analysis, 157 athletes aged 22.72 ± 3.78 years were randomly s…
Testing the Psychometric Properties of an Arabic Version of the Brunel Mood Scale among Physical Education Students
In our study, we translated and tested the psychometric properties of an Arabic version of the Brunel Mood Scale (BRUMS), referred to as the Arabic Mood Scale (ARAMS), among physical education university students. A total of 681 participants completed the ARAMS in exploratory and confirmatory phases. Exploratory analyses were conducted on data from 253 students between the ages of 19 and 25 years (M = 21.14 ± 1.65 years) of whom 132 were women (5…
Initial Development and Psychometric Evidence of Physical Education Grit Scale (PE-Grit)
Background Grit is a key concept in positive psychology and educational science. The construct measures two related constructs that are interest and effort. Several instruments have been developed to measure this construct in professional and educational contexts, but no tools have been developed considering specific contexts such as physical education and sport. Objectives The objective of this study is to develop and test a measurement scale to…
Development and Preliminary Validation of the Physical Education-Study Process Questionnaire
Background: The Revised Two Factor Study Process Questionnaire (R-SPQ-2F) is used to examine students' study approaches in higher education. The questionnaire is designed to measure two factors: deep and surface approaches. In order to measure these approaches for students in physical education and sport, a new measurement instrument should take into consideration the practical context of this field of education that makes it specific to other fi…
Initial Psychometric Evidence of Physical Inactivity Perceived Experience Scale (Pipes)
Aims: Our study aimed to develop a two-factor self-administered orthogonal questionnaire to assess the experience of perceived physical inactivity, to test its psychometric properties, to confirm its relationships with fear of COVID-19, and finally, with perceived stress during the pandemic. Methods: A total of 481 Tunisian subjects collected in several cities, aged from 16 to 67 years with a mean age = 32.48 ± 9.46, and of both sexes participate…
Latent Profile Analysis to Survey Positive Mental Health and Well-Being
Our results complement person-centered studies (LPA/LCA) related to the COVID-19 pandemic and can serve researchers and mental health practitioners in both diagnostic and intervention phases for the public. In addition, the GQ6 scale is a valid and reliable tool that can be administered to measure gratitude for culturally similar populations
