Abstract

TikTok has been one of the most used Social Networking Services (SNS) worldwide. It has grown into a platform with a broad range of content, including sports, fashion, performing arts, and education, encouraging learners to join the community. In this, this descriptive-correlational aimed to determine the relationship between TikTok Utilization and the Level of Engagement of BPeA students of the City College of Angeles. After gathering data from 103 respondents through an online survey, the findings revealed that the BPeA students undergoing online classes use the TikTok application moderately and responsibly. Also, the level of students' engagement during online classes was found to be very high. Furthermore, a significant positive relationship was observed between TikTok utilization and students' engagement. Based on the findings, the researchers recommend that the Institute of Education, Arts, and Sciences (IEAS), in partnership with the College Guidance Office (CGO), collaborate on providing webinars or trainings on how SNS such as TikTok can be a helpful tool or distraction at the level of engagement of the students. Additionally, instructors/professors may also use the TikTok application as an educational tool to provide a better and more engaging classroom environment. Moreover, conducting the same study with the addition of other degree programs offered by the college to determine if the results may support or refute the findings is highly recommended. Lastly, other variables may be added to this present study to understand further the relationship between TikTok consumption and students' engagement.

Abstract

Background: Energy drinks are commonly consumed by athletes due to their caffeine and stimulant content, which is believed to enhance performance. Previous research suggests benefits for anaerobic power and reaction time, but their effects on cardiovascular endurance and physiological responses remain inconclusive.Aims: This study aimed to examine the acute effects of energy drink consumption on cardiovascular endurance, blood pressure, and heart rate among collegiate athletes in the Philippines.Methods: Using a one-group pretest-washout-posttest design, 21 collegiate athletes (12 males, 9 females) participated. Cardiovascular endurance was assessed using the beep test. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were measured using a digital sphygmomanometer (Omron 10 Series BP7450), while heart rate (HR) and heart rate recovery (HRR) were monitored digitally. Participants underwent a pretest, consumed 330 ml of energy drink, completed a washout period, and then performed a post-test. The Shapiro-Wilk test was used to assess normality, and paired sample t-tests determined pre–and post-test differences.Result: Energy drink intake did not significantly improve cardiovascular endurance (p .05). However, significant increases in DBP (p = .040) and HR (p = .029) were observed in males. At the same time, females showed a significant rise in SBP (p = .032). HRR significantly improved in females (p = .031), indicating a possible short-term recovery benefit. Combined results showed a significant increase in DBP (p = .021), while HRR approached significance (p = .055).Conclusion: Although no enhancement in cardiovascular endurance was observed, energy drinks acutely influenced cardiovascular markers, raising blood pressure and heart rate in males and enhancing HRR in females. The absence of a control group and uncontrolled variables, such as caffeine metabolism, hydration, and socioeconomic factors, limit causal conclusions. These findings suggest the need for sex-specific guidance when using energy drinks. Future randomized trials with larger samples are recommended.

Abstract

While the challenges student-athletes face in balancing academics and sports have garnered increasing attention, few studies have explored how factors like hope and grit contribute to this balance and enhance motivation. This study investigated the relationship between hope, grit, and motivation of academic and sports of student-athletes. A total of 247 student-athletes of Mindanao State University-Iligan Institute of Technology (MSU-IIT) answered a set of questionnaires assessing grit, dispositional hope, and student-athletes motivation towards sports and academics with the age range of 18-24 years old. Ethical approval was gained from the participants. The results showed that factors of hope (agency and pathways) and grit (consistency of interest or COI and perseverance of effort or POE) were significant predictors of motivation in sports and academics. This suggests that student-athletes with higher levels of hope and grit demonstrate increased motivation in both domains. These results could offer a more valuable insights for coaches, educators, and sports psychologist striving to support the long-term success and wellbeing of student-athletes.

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between sports and physical activity anxiety and self-actualization among university students. Utilizing a quantitative research design with a descriptive correlation approach, the study involved 2,043 respondents selected through simple random sampling. Two primary instruments were employed: the physical activity and sport anxiety scale (PASAS) to measure anxiety levels and the index of self-actualization to assess self-actualization traits. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Spearman’s rho correlation coefficient to explore the relationships between the variables. Results revealed that respondents exhibited low levels of sports and physical activity anxiety and moderate levels of self-actualization. Notably, a significant negative correlation was identified between sports and physical activity anxiety and self-actualization. These findings imply that higher anxiety related to sports and physical activities is associated with lower levels of self-actualization, highlighting the need for supportive environments that mitigate anxiety in physical activity contexts. The study underscores the importance of implementing strategies to reduce anxiety and promote self-discovery, ultimately fostering resilience and personal growth among students.

Abstract

Background: Innovation in physical education (PE) plays a key role in enhancing students’ cognitive, affective, and psychomotor development. However, there is limited comprehensive mapping that captures global research trends, influential contributors, and thematic evolution related to learning innovation in PE over the past decade. Objectives: The objective of this study is to analyse publication trends, leading sources, influential authors and affiliations, collaboration networks, and thematic keyword patterns in global research on learning innovation in physical education from 2013–2022. Methods: A bibliometric analysis was conducted using Scopus-indexed journal articles (n = 867). Data were processed through VOSviewer (v1.6.19) and Publish or Perish to examine publication growth, prolific authors, affiliations, countries, journals, and keyword co-occurrence networks. Finding/Results: Publications showed a steady increase, peaking in 2022 (179 documents). Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy emerged as the most productive journal, while Universidad de Oviedo and China were the leading institutional and national contributors. Keyword clustering revealed five dominant themes: models-based practice, learning motivation, health-oriented PE, teacher professional development, and curriculum design. Conclusion: This study maps the global landscape of learning innovation in PE and highlights the growing shift toward learner-centred, theory-driven, and technology-enhanced pedagogical models. Future research should expand cross-regional collaboration, integrate multi-database analyses, and explore thematic evolution to capture dynamic shifts in PE innovation.

Abstract

Background: Job satisfaction among physical education (PE) teachers is a critical factor influencing instructional quality, work motivation, and long-term professional commitment. However, there is currently no comprehensive and standardized instrument specifically designed to measure the job satisfaction of PE teachers within the Indonesian context. Research Objective: This study aimed to develop and evaluate the psychometric properties of the Indonesian Physical Education Teacher Job Satisfaction Scale (IPET-JSS), an adapted and contextually modified version of Spector’s Job Satisfaction Survey (JSS), tailored specifically for PE teachers in Indonesia. Method: A cross-sectional quantitative survey design was employed. A total of 300 PE teachers from primary, junior secondary, and senior/vocational high schools—both public and private—in Bengkulu City participated. The IPET-JSS comprises 36 items across nine dimensions (pay, promotion, supervision, fringe benefits, contingent rewards, operating procedures, coworkers, nature of work, and communication), rated on a 6-point Likert scale. Construct validity was assessed using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and reliability was examined via Cronbach’s alpha and composite reliability (CR). Finding/Results: All items showed factor loadings above 0.50. The Cronbach’s alpha for each dimension ranged from 0.75 to 0.86, and CR values exceeded 0.70, indicating strong internal consistency. Coworkers and Nature of Work were the highest-rated dimensions, while Pay and Operating Procedures received the lowest scores. The CFA results supported a good model fit (CFI > 0.90; RMSEA < 0.08), affirming the structural validity of the IPET-JSS. Conclusion: The IPET-JSS is a psychometrically sound instrument for assessing job satisfaction among Indonesian PE teachers. It holds promise for use in both research and practice, particularly in teacher evaluation, educational policy development, and professional development planning. Future studies are recommended to explore its cross-contextual validity and associations with other psychosocial constructs.

Abstract

This research aimed to comprehensively investigate the challenges faced by physical education teachers in implementing physical activities towards health and fitness (PATH-Fit) as the new tertiary physical education curriculum in the Philippines. Employing a qualitative research design, the study engaged five physical education teachers from a leading State University in the Southern Philippines as the main source of data. The research participants were actively involved in focus group discussions and in-depth interviews using an open-ended guide questionnaire validated by experts in the field. The triangulation of results revealed five essential themes capturing the significant challenges faced by these educators in the implementation of the new curriculum: inadequate instructional references, insufficient instructional time for PATH-Fit, lack of training and retooling for teachers, unavailability of equipment and materials, and shortfall on administrative support and guidance. As this research contributes critical insights into the multifaceted challenges associated with PATH-Fit implementation, it emphasizes the necessity for strategic interventions to enhance the effectiveness of the new tertiary physical education curriculum in the Philippines.
