Motivation for physical education classes among junior elementary-school students

Summary/Abstract: Students’ motivation is important for the feeling of satisfaction with school as well as for enhancing teaching effects. The aim of our research was to examine motivational orintations of the third-year elementary-school students for Physical Education classes. The research included 100 students (54 boys and 46 girls) from two elementary schools in Sombor. By using the double cluster analysis we got the results which indicate higher self-determined behavior of younger school age, stimulated by fun, enjoyment and wish to learn various sport activities, which is a solid basis for conducting the teaching process more efficiently. Identified regulation and intristic motivation dominate, and the results of multivariant variance analysis show that there are no gender differences in behavior self-determination. Represented motivational orientations are a good base for more efficient teaching of Physical Education in junior classes of elementary school, while teachers in senior classes should uphold it by using more current contents of physical education, more possibilities for chosing the contents and activities by students and a more flexible teaching curriculum.
