ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was to investigate students’ perceptions of responsibility in the context of physical education. 17 6th-grade students (7 boys and 10 girls) from 9 Greek elementary schools were interviewed. Theory and data driven thematic analysis was conducted. The Teaching Personal and Social Responsibility (TPSR) model provided a conceptual framework to guide data analysis. Most of the students’ values, motives, attitudes, intentions, and experiences reflected the foundational responsibility goals included in the TPSR model; however, students’ awareness of more advanced manifestations of responsibility in physical education was weaker. Findings shed light on Greek students’ perceptions of responsibility in physical education (PE) classes and other settings. The TPSR model provided a relevant framework for describing and interpreting students’ perceptions of responsibility. However, there was a marked discrepancy between students’ perceived values of responsibility and their reported experiences. Implications for promoting responsibility in physical education are discussed.

摘要

本研究的目的是调查学生在体育教育背景下的责任感。采访了来自 9 所希腊小学的 17 名 6 年级学生（7 名男孩和 10 名女孩）。进行了理论和数据驱动的专题分析。教学个人和社会责任 (TPSR) 模型提供了一个概念框架来指导数据分析。大多数学生的价值观、动机、态度、意图和经历反映了TPSR模型中包含的基本责任目标；然而，学生对体育教育中更高级的责任表现形式的意识较弱。调查结果揭示了希腊学生在体育课和其他环境中对责任的看法。TPSR 模型为描述和解释学生的责任感提供了一个相关的框架。然而，学生的责任感价值观与他们报告的经历之间存在显着差异。讨论了促进体育教育责任的意义。
