In the Philippines, increasing educational accountability and the No Child Left Behind Act have reduced physical education classes, affecting students' fitness and cognitive development. Physical fitness plays a crucial role in academic performance, as it increases blood flow, oxygen extraction, and pulmonary ventilation. Improved cardiorespiratory fitness reduces depression, anxiety, and self-esteem, leading to better academic performance. Play is essential for learning, and physical activity improves the cardiovascular, vascular, metabolic, endocrine, and immune systems. Adolescent sedentary lifestyles, caused by gadgets, can lead to poor academic performance. Hence, the purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between students' physical fitness levels and academic performance in Senior High School students officially enrolled in S.Y 2022-2023.</p> Joemar Lacasan Junah Lacasan-Nagba ##submission.copyrightStatement## 2023-12-31 2023-12-31 3 2 99 109 10.15294/ajpesh.v3i2.73112 Eating Habits Among School Students https://journal.unnes.ac.id/sju/ajpesh/article/view/73655 <p>In this study, schoolchildren's eating behaviors are examined.

The pandemic restrictions on outdoor activities have caused physical activity levels to decrease by 6.3% globally. After vaccination is introduced, many individuals may feel more confident and safer to engage in physical activities but no fixed percentage of increased physical activity participation. This study aims to measure the social cognitive determinants of physical activity participation among vaccinated Malaysians. A total of 372 respondents, who had received vaccinations, were recruited for this study. The participants were selected from different age groups and genders in Malaysia. Multiple linear regression analysis was conducted to measure the relationship between the social cognitive determinants and physical activity participation among vaccinated Malaysians. The results revealed a significant relationship between the social cognitive determinants and physical activity participation (β = 0.44, p &lt; 0.001). Self-efficacy (β = 0.44, p = 0.001) was found to be a significant predictor of physical activity participation. Participants with higher levels of self-efficacy were more likely to engage in regular physical activity. Similarly, outcome expectations (β = 0.25, p = 0.039), and goals (β = 0.64, p = 0.001) were positively associated with physical activity participation. In contrast, sociostructural factors demonstrated a negative association with physical activity participation (β = -0.49, p = 0.001). In conclusion, this study provides valuable insight into the social cognitive determinants of physical activity participation among vaccinated Malaysians. Understanding the role of social cognitive determinants may provide insights into strategies to promote physical activity among this population.</p> Aminuddin bin Mohammad Wahidah binti Tumijan ##submission.copyrightStatement## 2024-01-09 2024-01-09 3 2 116 124 10.15294/ajpesh.v3i2.75373 Blended Learning with the Teaching Personal and Social Responsibility Approach in Learning Physical Education Sports and Health and Character in the New Normal Era https://journal.unnes.ac.id/sju/ajpesh/article/view/75857 <p>This study aims to develop a learning model with the TPSR approach. The learning materials studied are Physical Education, Sports and Health (PESH) and character physical education, basic locomotor movement patterns for the lower grades of elementary school. This research method uses research and development, consist of five main stages: 1) Needs Analysis, 2) Planning and Design, 3) Expert validation, 4) Field trials, and 5) Product revision. The subjects of this study were all elementary school students in Gunungpati, Semarang. Data analysis using the analytical description. Research results: 1. Need to improvise the learning process of locomotor basic motion material. 2. There are problems in implementation in the field. 3. Teachers teach only based on their experience. The results of the Small andLarge Scale Trials showed an increase in students' attitudes, knowledge values, and locomotor movement abilities. The results of the Feasibility Test also showed an increase in the attitude value, knowledge value, and locomotor movement ability of students.</p> Hermawan Pamot Raharjo Heny Setyawati ##submission.copyrightStatement## 2023-12-31 2023-12-31 3 2 125 139 10.15294/ajpesh.v3i2.75857 Remote Teaching Instruction Through The Lens of Physical Education Teachers: Challenges During The Covid-19 Pandemic https://journal.unnes.ac.id/sju/ajpesh/article/view/76114 <p>The COVID-19 pandemic, with its widespread transmission, has profoundly impacted the world. It led to millions falling ill, and a significant loss of lives. This unprecedented crisis resulted in global measures like school closures, home quarantine, and social distancing, compelling educators and employees to embrace remote work and technology. In Physical Education (PE), characterized by its hands-on approach, teachers faced the challenge of adapting to remote instruction without adequate training. While research on quality in-person PE instruction is well-established, there is still much to uncover about remote PE instruction. This study delves into teachers' experiences during remote learning amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. Adopting a qualitative methodology, the study utilized an interview guide as the primary tool and applied a constant comparative approach for data analysis. Ten participants specializing in Physical Education, drawn from various colleges and universities in the southern Philippines, were purposefully selected for the study. Despite some having prior blended learning training, they faced challenges, including concerns about the authenticity of students’ work, connectivity issues, assessing output, quality challenges, feedback delays, and difficulties in motor skill acquisition. The findings underscore the need for targeted training programs addressing these challenges, emphasizing the importance of ongoing support and professional development for PE educators navigating remote learning environments.</p> Harlyn Mae S.

Involving 194 students selected via simple random sampling from Burapha University, the study utilised a comprehensive questionnaire A pivotal instrument in this methodology was the "Health Literacy in Physical Activities for Adolescents" questionnaire, adapted from Khunkitti's 2020 work and conceptually based on Pander, Murdaugh, and Parsons (2011) work to evaluate various aspects of physical activity literacy, including knowledge, access, opinions, and engagement. The questionnaire demonstrated a reliability score of .85. Statistical methods such as ANOVA were employed for analysis. The findings indicated uniformly high levels of health literacy across all academic years in areas like knowledge and perception of physical activities, with moderate engagement in actual physical activities. No significant variances were observed between different academic years regarding understanding, accessibility, opinions, family and community involvement, and physical activity practices among students.</p> Tanida Julavanichpong Kittipob Hanmanop Thanakorn Huan-Kim Thiranat Maneejak Napas Namthongton Veerapat Suwatthanapiriy Satanachan Sucharit Chatkamon Singhnoi Chairat Choosakul ##submission.copyrightStatement## 2024-01-22 2024-01-22 3 2 152 156 10.15294/ajpesh.v3i2.76263
