Introduction: Physical literacy is crucial for the mental health and quality of life of university sports students, yet a research gap exists in understanding how these constructs interact through a gender-sensitive lens, particularly within sports education programs where psychological distress is rising despite high physical competence. Objectives: This study aims to analyze the relationship between physical literacy, mental health, and quality of life among sports students, considering the role of gender as a covariate. The research design used is quantitative with a descriptive correlational approach. Method: The research sample consisted of 211 students from the Faculty of Sports and Health Education, Indonesia University of Education. The instruments used included the Perceived Physical Literacy Instrument (PPLI), Short Mental Health Scale (SKM-12), and WHOQOL-BREF. Data analysis was performed using descriptive statistics, classical assumption tests, multiple regression, and ANCOVA. Result: The results show that the average scores for physical literacy, mental health, and quality of life are in the moderate to high range with a normal and homogeneous data distribution. Multiple regression analysis shows that mental health has a significant effect on quality of life (B = 1.217; p < 0.001), while physical literacy has no significant effect (B = 0.171; p = 0.072). Simultaneously, both variables were able to explain 52.6% of the variation in students' quality of life (R² = 0.526; p < 0.001). ANCOVA analysis confirmed that the effect of mental health remained significant after controlling for gender, while physical literacy and gender differences were not significant. Conclusion: These findings indicate that mental health is the primary predictor of student athletes' quality of life, while physical literacy plays a more supportive role. Intervention recommendations focus on strengthening mental health integrated with improving physical literacy to comprehensively support student athletes' well-being.

Introduction: Goal setting is a critical psychological skill in athletic performance, enabling athletes to establish clear, challenging, and measurable targets. In addition to increasing motivation and self-confidence, goal setting also helps athletes manage stress and anxiety, making goal setting an important strategy in training athletes to achieve peak performance. Objectives: This study aims to analyze the relationship between psychological factors stress, anxiety, self-confidence, and motivation and goal-setting among KU III (Age Group III, 12-13 years old) swimmers in Semarang. Method: Using a mixed-methods sequential explanatory design, the research involved 26 athletes selected via purposive sampling. Quantitative data were collected using standardized scales (DASS-21, TSCI, SOQ, and a goal-setting scale) and analyzed with correlation techniques, while qualitative data from in-depth interviews were analyzed thematically. Result: The results revealed that self-confidence (r = 0.652, p = 0.000) and motivation (r = 0.742, p = 0.000) had a strong, significant positive relationship with goal-setting. In contrast, anxiety (r = -0.328) and stress (r = -0.119) showed weak, non-significant negative relationships. Simultaneously, the four psychological factors accounted for 75.1% (R² = 0.751) of the variance in goal-setting effectiveness. Qualitative findings identified key themes, including triggers of anxiety/stress, coping strategies, sources of self-confidence, and the dominance of intrinsic motivation. Conclusion: The study concludes that high self-confidence and strong intrinsic motivation are the primary drivers of effective goal-setting in young swimmers, while unmanaged anxiety and stress can be detrimental.

Introduction: The success of Physical Education (PE) learning greatly depends on the quality of the teacher’s instruction. Many pre-service PE teachers still demonstrate low teaching skills, particularly in lesson planning, classroom management, instructional delivery, and reflective ability. These challenges limit the effectiveness of the learning process and contribute to low performance in teaching assessments and field teaching practice. Objectives: This study aims to analyze the teaching skills of prospective Physical Education teachers through the application of the Video Tape Feedback (VTFB) method as a reflective tool to enhance teaching performance. Method: A cross-sectional research design was employed with 58 pre-service teachers from FKIP Universitas Sriwijaya, cohort2024. Data were collected through observations, video recordings, and document analysis using an instrument consisting of 12 core teaching skill components.Result: The study shows that reviewing their own teaching through VTFB helps pre-service teachers notice things they often miss when they are in the classroom.By watching the recordings, they tend to see their weak spots more clearly and can think back on their decisions in a more honest and practical way. Many of themalso become more aware of how they explain lessons, how they handle the class, and how they respond to students during activities. Supervisors and spectatorsmay overlook what happens during education in video reviews. VTFB improves PE teacher candidates overall. Conclusion: The findings suggest that teachereducation programs should employ this method to promote continuous learning and consistent performance evaluation.
