'Let them do PE!' The 'becoming' of Swedish physical education in the age of COVID-19

Seguya Kamoga et al.

Summary: This study investigates how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted physical education (PE) in Sweden, where no lockdown measures were implemented. Results from interviews with seven PE teachers suggest that teaching PE during COVID-19 has led to various challenges and changes, such as modifications in context, content, roles and responsibilities, as well as issues concerning physical contact and proximity among students and teachers. The study concludes that the parameters of PE in Sweden are changing rapidly amidst the pandemic, creating an opportunity for further discussions, possible solutions, and necessary adjustments in dealing with the ongoing COVID-19 situation.

Viktoria A. Kovacs et al.

Summary: This study investigated the physical activity and screen time of European children during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Participation in Physical Education Classes and Health-Related Behaviours among Adolescents from 67 Countries

Joao Martins et al.

Summary: This study examined the associations between participation in physical education (PE) classes and various health-related behaviors among adolescents. The analysis of data from the Global Student Health Survey revealed that participating in PE classes was positively associated with physical activity, active travel, fruit consumption, and vegetable consumption, while being negatively associated with sedentary behavior and smoking.

School Closures During Social Lockdown and Mental Health, Health Behaviors, and Well-being Among Children and Adolescents During the First COVID-19 Wave A Systematic Review

Russell Viner et al.

Summary: This study reviews the association of school closures during the COVID-19 pandemic with the mental health, health behaviors, and well-being of children and adolescents. The findings suggest that school closures are associated with adverse mental health symptoms and unhealthy behaviors among children and adolescents. However, it is difficult to determine the direct impact of school closures as they are often implemented as part of broader social lockdown measures.

Moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity among adolescents in the USA during the COVID-19 pandemic

Jason M. Nagata et al.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate adolescents' moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA) during the COVID-19 pandemic and investigate the associations with sociodemographic characteristics, mental health, and resiliency factors. The study found that a lower proportion of adolescents met physical activity guidelines during the pandemic, with significant disparities by race/ethnicity and socioeconomic status. Poorer mental health, COVID-related worry, and stress were associated with lower physical activity, while more social support and coping behaviors were associated with higher physical activity.

Capturing the multidimensionality of motivation in physical education: A self-organizing maps approach to profiling students

Carmen Peiro-Velert et al.

Summary: This study used self-organizing maps (SOM) analysis to explore the multidimensionality of adolescents' motivation in the physical education setting. The results showed that different individuals had different motivational characteristics, including self-determined motivation and controlled motivation. There were gender differences in motivation, and different expressions of reluctance to be physically active among boys and girls. SOM analysis proved to be a robust and accurate method for visualizing the complexity of motivational processes.

Gamification in Physical Education: A Systematic Review

Victor Arufe-Giraldez et al.

Summary: This study reviewed the application of gamification in physical education classrooms in kindergarten, elementary school, and middle/junior/high school, and analyzed the scientific evidence. The results showed that most studies indicated an improvement in students' motivation and commitment towards physical exercise, but fewer studies confirmed improvements in academic performance. The diversity of protocols and evaluation instruments used by researchers prevented meta-analysis of the data. Some studies found positive effects when combining gamification with other pedagogical models.

Evidence-Based Overview of Accelerometer-Measured Physical Activity during School Recess: An Updated Systematic Review

Sergio Pulido Sanchez et al.

Summary: Interest in analyzing physically active behaviors during school recesses has grown in recent years. Unfortunately, most studies show that children do not achieve the recommended levels of moderate to vigorous physical activity. Younger children and boys tend to be more physically active during recess, and the school environment contributes significantly to their overall physical activity levels. Intervention programs and providing schools with equipment and facilities have been shown to positively impact children's physical activity levels.

Comparison of Physical Activity Levels in Youths before and during a Pandemic Lockdown

Malgorzata Bronikowska et al.

Summary: The study compared physical activity levels before and during a pandemic lockdown among Polish adolescent youths and identified potential environmental factors affecting these levels. Adolescents who did not meet WHO MVPA recommendations before the lockdown increased their PA frequency during the lockdown, while those who did meet the recommendations significantly decreased their MVPA levels below the recommendations. Self-rated health for PA showed a strong correlation with MVPA in students who met WHO recommendations before the pandemic but failed to maintain them during the COVID-19 restriction.
