Abstract

Background: Physical literacy (PL) is internationally recognised as a foundational concept in physical education, supporting lifelong engagement in physical activity. However, how PL is conceptualised, assessed, and implemented within Indonesian school contexts remains unclear, and no systematic synthesis of existing national research has been conducted. Objective: This study aimed to systematically review and synthesise empirical research on physical literacy in Indonesia, with particular attention to conceptual frameworks, assessment approaches, and implementation practices in school-aged populations. Methods:  A PRISMA-guided systematic literature review was conducted using Scopus, PubMed, OpenAlex, Semantic Scholar, DOAJ, and Garuda databases. Studies published between 2020 and 2024 were screened, yielding 5,056 records, of which 20 met the inclusion criteria. Data were analysed using narrative synthesis across key thematic domains. Finding/Results: Most studies focused on primary school students and conceptualised physical literacy primarily through fundamental motor skills. Multidimensional PL frameworks encompassing motivation, confidence, knowledge, and lifelong engagement were rarely applied. Assessment methods were highly heterogeneous and lacked standardised, culturally adapted instruments. Although school-based interventions demonstrated short-term improvements in motor competence and physical activity, broader affective and cognitive dimensions of PL were largely neglected. Key challenges included limited teacher understanding of PL and the absence of explicit integration within the national curriculum. Conclusion: Physical literacy research in Indonesia remains fragmented and predominantly skill-oriented, with limited alignment to holistic PL principles. There is a clear need for culturally relevant frameworks, validated assessment tools, and strengthened teacher professional development. Future research should adopt comprehensive PL models and examine long-term, multidimensional interventions to better support children’s physical, cognitive, and affective development.

Abstract

Background: Amid rising sedentary behaviors and non-communicable diseases among adolescents globally, physical activity levels continue to decline—exacerbated by lifestyle shifts driven by globalization. While social support is often considered a key enabler of behavior change, limited empirical evidence clarifies its actual influence on adolescent physical activity, particularly in diverse sociocultural settings like Indonesia. This study addresses that gap. Research Objectives: This study aimed to examine the relationship between perceived social support and physical activity among adolescents in two different school settings. Methods: A correlational quantitative design with convenience sampling was employed, involving 1.046 adolescents aged 12–18 years from two schools with differing neighborhood contexts. Social support was assessed using the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS), and physical activity levels were measured using the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ). Data were analyzed using Spearman rank correlation via SPSS. Finding/Results: The results of data analysis using the Spearman rank test showed no significant relationship between physical activity and all components of social support (family, friends, and others) p> 0.05 (p=0.222, r=-0.038 for family; p=0.143, r=0.045 for friends; p=0.717, r=0.011 for significant others; p=0.779, r=0.009 for overall social support). Conclusion: These results indicate that social support is not the main factor influencing physical activity participation in adolescents. This study showed no significant relationship between the two variables. Other factors such as physical literacy, intrinsic motivation, school environment, and health conditions may have a more dominant role. Future studies are expected to explore these factors through longitudinal and experimental approaches.

Abstract

Background: The return to face-to-face physical education (PE) classes after prolonged online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic has exposed significant issues, including reduced physical competence, student disengagement, and weakened social interaction. While many studies have focused on instructional strategies during online learning, limited research has explored how students' attitudes and motivation affect their re-engagement in PE during the post-pandemic transition. Research Objectives: This study aims to examine the influence of student attitudes and motivation on their success in physical education amid the shift back to in-person learning. Methods: A qualitative approach was employed involving 10 students and 6 PE instructors from higher education institutions, selected through purposive sampling. Data was gathered via in-depth interviews and analysed using Colaizzi’s phenomenological method, with member checking to validate findings. Findings/Results: Students experienced difficulties in skill performance and social reintegration, often accompanied by low confidence and reduced enthusiasm. Teachers highlighted behavioural issues, a lack of participation, and challenges in reestablishing productive classroom dynamics. Conclusion: These findings suggest a need to support students’ psychosocial and physical readiness through motivational and attitudinal interventions. For educators, fostering an engaging learning atmosphere and leveraging blended competencies are key. Future studies should involve broader samples and investigate the long-term effects of this educational transition to inform more effective PE practices.

Abstract

Background: Children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) often experience delays in motor development and exhibit unstructured physical activity, which may hinder the acquisition of controlled motor skills. These limitations can negatively affect their overall physical health and quality of life. Although inclusive physical education has shown promise, limited research explores the impact of structured video modeling on this population. Research Objective: This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of an inclusive physical literacy model based on video modeling in improving motor skills and physical activity among students with ADHD. Method: An experimental design with a randomized control group pretest-posttest approach was used. The participants were 20 inclusive students diagnosed with ADHD. Motor skills were assessed using selected subtests from the test of gross motor development (TGMD), including horizontal jumping, hopping, and sprinting. Physical activity levels were measured using the physical activity questionnaire for children (PAQ-C). Finding/Results: Independent t-test analysis revealed a significant improvement in the intervention group compared to the control group. The posttest results showed significant differences in motor skills (p = 0.046) and physical activity levels (p = 0.001). Conclusion: The findings indicate that an inclusive physical literacy model incorporating video modeling can effectively enhance both motor skills and physical activity in students with ADHD. This approach supports not only physical development but also fosters better psychological and social outcomes. Future studies are encouraged to implement this model on a larger and more diverse scale.

Abstract

Background: Bullying remains a critical issue affecting youth development in Indonesia, with a notable increase in reported cases between 2020 and 2023, particularly in junior high schools. Despite various large-scale interventions, bullying prevention embedded in the learning process itself—especially at the classroom level—has received limited attention. This study addresses the gap by exploring how learning-based strategies can serve as foundational solutions for broader bullying prevention efforts. Research Objectives: This systematic literature review aims to identify effective strategies for bullying prevention within both physical education (PE) and general education subjects, focusing on learning approaches that foster safe and inclusive classroom environments. Methods: A systematic review methodology was employed using the Publish or Perish application to extract data from CrossRef, Google Scholar, and Scopus. The PICO framework guided the research question, while the PRISMA flowchart structured the selection process. Finding/Results: From an initial pool of 2,799 articles, 10 met the inclusion criteria for qualitative synthesis. The analysis reveals that bullying prevention has been implemented through subject-integrated strategies in PE, civics, Islamic education, and social studies. Cooperative learning models have proven especially effective in PE, while general subjects have benefited from the integration of affective values (e.g., Islamic and Pancasila values) with cooperative approaches such as Numbered Heads Together (NHT), Student Teams–Achievement Division (STAD), and Jigsaw. Conclusion: The findings suggest that integrating cooperative learning with affective value education is a promising strategy for bullying prevention across subjects. Such approaches not only reduce bullying but also promote character education and social interaction. This review underscores the need for further research to expand these strategies and address bullying as a complex, global challenge.

Abstract

Background: Social skills are essential for primary school students, yet few studies have examined the effectiveness of the Shaftel Role-Playing (RPS) model in Physical Education (PE), particularly in Indonesia. Objectives: This study aimed to examine and evaluate the effect of the Shaftel Role-Playing (RPS) model on the development of students’ social skills in Physical Education learning. Methods:  A one-group pretest–posttest design was implemented with 30 sixth-grade students selected through simple random sampling. The RPS intervention was delivered across 12 sessions (70 minutes each). Finding/Results: The analysis revealed a statistically significant improvement in students’ social skills following the implementation of the RPS model (Sig. = 0.013). The intervention demonstrated a medium effect size (Cohen’s d = 0.49), indicating that the model produced a meaningful and practically relevant impact on students’ social skill development. Conclusion: The findings confirm that the Shaftel Role-Playing (RPS) model significantly enhances elementary students’ social skills within Physical Education learning. This result highlights the model’s potential as an effective pedagogical strategy for fostering social competence in school-based contexts, although future studies using controlled designs are recommended to further validate these outcomes.

Abstract

Background: Innovative learning models are essential for enhancing fundamental athletic skills among primary school students. Traditional methods often fail to engage learners, leading to low participation and limited skill development in physical education (PE). There is a need for engaging, structured models that effectively combine physical activity with motivation and teamwork. Research Objectives: This study aims to design and evaluate the effectiveness of a circuit-based team competition model to improve basic athletic techniques in primary school PE. Method: A research and development (R&D) approach was used, involving 30 purposively selected students. The model was developed through expert validation and implemented over a five-week field trial. Data were collected using expert judgment forms and a fundamental athletics skill test. A one-sample t-test was conducted to assess pretest and posttest differences. Finding/Results: The implementation of the model resulted in significant improvements in students’ athletic performance. The mean score increased from 62.4 (SD = 5.3) to 78.6 (SD = 6.1), with a statistically significant result (t = 6.24; p < 0.001). Approximately 90% of students demonstrated notable improvement. The highest gains were observed in sprinting and mini hurdles, which also showed strong instrument validity (r = 0.68–0.69). Conclusion: The circuit-based team competition model is effective in enhancing primary students’ basic athletic skills while also boosting motivation and active participation. This study offers a promising approach for improving learning strategies in physical education.

Abstract

Background: Swimming instruction in higher education is still predominantly characterised by teacher-centred approaches, with limited empirical evidence examining the effectiveness of student-centred and integrated pedagogical models. In particular, little is known about the comparative impact of combining multiple learning approaches on swimming skill development across different swimming styles. Objectives: This study aimed to (i) examine the effects of an integrated learning (IL) model—combining problem-based learning (PBL), project-based learning (PjBL), digital learning media, and peer assessment—on students’ swimming learning outcomes across four swimming styles, and (ii) compare the effectiveness of the IL model with single PBL and PjBL approaches. Methods: A quasi-experimental pretest–posttest group design was employed involving 93 university students enrolled in a swimming course. Participants were assigned to three groups: IL, PBL, and PjBL. Data was analysed using paired-samples t-tests to examine within-group effects, two-way ANOVA to identify between-group differences, and Tukey HSD post hoc tests. Effect sizes and confidence intervals were also calculated. Finding/Results: The IL model produced significant improvements in swimming performance across butterfly, breaststroke, backstroke, and freestyle techniques, with large effect sizes observed in all styles. Comparative analyses revealed that the IL group achieved significantly higher learning outcomes than both the PBL and PjBL groups, while no significant difference was found between PBL and PjBL. Conclusion: The findings demonstrate that an integrated learning model that combines multiple student-centred pedagogical approaches, digital learning media, and peer assessment is more effective than single-method approaches in university-level swimming education. This model offers a promising pedagogical framework for enhancing swimming instruction and warrants further investigation across different educational levels and learning contexts.

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

Background: Teacher Encouragement during Deep Learning (TEDL) based on literature has a positive impact, but it is not yet clear how it affects attention and volleyball technique among students. Objectives: Therefore, the current study aims to analyze the effects of TEDL on improving attention and volleyball techniques among students in physical education (PE) classes. Methods: An experimental method with a pretest-posttest design was adopted in this study. Forty participants were involved, representing students from several high schools in Sukabumi (Indonesia). They were recruited using inclusion criteria and randomly assigned to the TEDL group (n = 20) and the control group (CG) (n = 20). Assessment of attention and basic volleyball techniques was measured at the pretest and posttest stages. Finding/Results: The results of our study show that there are significant main effects of teaching (p < 0.05), time (p < 0.05) and interaction (p < 0.05) on attention and volleyball techniques. Conclusion: We firmly conclude that TEDL can be an alternative teaching model to replace traditional learning in improving attention and volleyball techniques among students. Future research is expected to design TEDL programs for other teaching materials such as basketball, soccer, futsal, swimming, hockey, or badminton.
