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 …
The impact of intermittent fasting during Ramadan on psychomotor and cognitive skills in adolescent athletes
Introduction Intermittent fasting (IF) represents a dietary intervention similar to caloric restriction, characterized by the strategic limitation of food consumption. Among the diverse array of practices for IF, Ramadan IF (RIF), a religious observance in Islam, mandates that healthy adult Muslims abstain from both food and drinks during daylight hours. In sports, researchers have extensively studied IF effects on health, including sleep and phy…
Modelling the associations between academic engagement, study process and grit on academic achievement of physical education and sport university students
Academic engagement as well as study processes are two important factors predicting academic achievement while grit seems to be not a major predictor. Hence, physical education and sport faculty and university administrators should prioritize student engagement as a determinant of academic outcomes by reforming or redesigning physical education and sport curriculum modules that can facilitate engagement
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
The global burden of disease attributable to high body mass index in 195 countries and territories, 1990–2017
BACKGROUND: Obesity represents an urgent problem that needs to be properly addressed, especially among children. Public and global health policy- and decision-makers need timely, reliable quantitative information to develop effective interventions aimed at counteracting the burden generated by high body mass index (BMI). Few studies have assessed the high-BMI-related burden on a global scale. METHODS AND FINDINGS: Following the methodology framew…
