Abstract

This study examined differences in physical activity, physical fitness, and teacher character among educators in Pasuruan according to teaching level (elementary versus junior high school). Teachers serve as instructors, classroom managers, and role models; therefore, variations in student characteristics across levels may shape teachers’ activity patterns, fitness status, and professional character. A quantitative comparative survey design was employed with 150 teachers (75 elementary and 75 junior high) selected through proportionate stratified random sampling. Physical activity was assessed with the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form, physical fitness with a 2,400-meter run test, and teacher character with a six-pillar character scale. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, normality and homogeneity tests, and the Mann–Whitney U test. Results indicated no statistically significant differences between the two groups for physical activity (p = 0.871), physical fitness (p = 0.944), or teacher character (p = 1.000). Teaching level therefore does not appear to be a primary differentiating factor. Integrated programs promoting physical activity, fitness, and character can be designed jointly for elementary and junior high school teachers. Future research should consider age, years of service, lifestyle, health status, and work environment.
