    Satisfaction is a contributing factor to increasing participation in sports activities, especially since it is linkedto behavioural procedures responsible for causing positive feelings to people involved. The aim of this study was to confirm the “Physical Activity Class Satisfaction Questionnaire”in a Greek educational dancing context. The internal consistency of the questionnaire has also been examined. The sample of the study consisted of 482 participants, 184 male and 298 females. All participants have attended Greek traditional dance courses in dancing associations among Greece. The scale consists of 45 questions which constitute nine factors. The following statistical analyses were carried out: Questionnaire’s validity and reliability were examined via an exploratory factor analysis and a confirmatory factor analysis. Reliability analysis was conducted to examine the internal cohesion of the factors. Descriptive statistics have been calculated to broadly examine the degree of satisfaction. Results’ analysis arrived at the following conclusion:a. The Greek version of the questionnaire has shown stablestationary psychometric properties, which partially support its use in the Greek dancing context. b. Correlations among subscales indicated a related factor model supporting the construct validityof the scale.

    Comparison of motivational factors between the practice of sports of nature, competitive adventure and leisure
    (Murcia: Servicio de publicaciones de la Universidad de Murcia, 2020) Brandão, António; Frontini, Roberta; Peixoto, Diogo; Fernandes, Daniel; Clemente, Filipe Manuel
    The main aim of this study was to compare sports practitioners of a competitive and leisure nature sports regarding their motivations for prac-tice. The sample consisted of 631 adults (504 men and 127 women) who practiced nature and adventure sports. Participants answered an assessment protocol composed of a sociodemographic form and the Exercise Motiva-tion Inventory - 2 (EMI-2) questionnaire. Among leisure and competition practitioners, variations were analyzed using standardized effect size dif-ferences (ES) with 90% Confidence Interval (CI). The following scale was used to interpret the magnitude effect: <0,2, trivial; 0,2-0,6, small; 0,6-1,2, moderate; > 1,2, large. The probabilities were tested considering the smallest worthwhile changes (SW, 0,2 x between SD subjects). The following scale was used for qualitative probabilities: 25-75%, possibly; 75-95%, likely; 95-99% very likely; e> 99% almost certain. Differences in variables were tested regarding the following factors: Social Recognition, Positive Health, Weight, Stress Management, Revitalisation, Enjoyment, Challenge, Af-filiation, Competition, Health Pressures, Health Avoidance, Appearance, Strength & Endurance and Nimbleness. Only the variables Enjoyment and Competition had moderate magnitude when comparing leisure to competitive practitioners. When comparing within gender, we found that the variable Competition is more noticeable in females compared to leisure having a probability of almost certain with large magnitude on the Enjoy-ment variable -29.2% [-36.8;-20.6]; ES: -2.17 [-2.89;-1.45] and competition -50.7% [-60.6;-38.4]; ES: -1.52 [-2.00;-1.04]. Understanding the motives that fit the practice of a particular sport is essential to tailor a strategy and make sports plans more appealing and interesting for their practitioners. The Enjoyment and Competition factors were the most significant, which influenced the gender differences between and when comparing the profile of leisure and competitors.

    La experiencia de disfrute y su contribución a la realización personal en jóvenes estudiantes
    (Universidad de Murcia. Servicio de Publicaciones, 2022) Schmidt, Vanina; Molina, María Fernanda; Celsi, Ignacio; Corti, Juan Facundo
    El disfrute a través de las actividades tiene un importante impacto en el desarrollo positivo de los jóvenes. El objetivo general de este trabajo es conocer las características del disfrute en jóvenes estudiantes y su relación con el sentido de realización personal. Método. Participaron 839 estudiantes secundarios y universitarios (63.9% femenino) de 13 a 30 años (M=18.40; DE=4.82) del Área Metropolitana Bonaerense (AMBA)/Argentina. Instrumentos: Escala de Disfrute en la Actividad (EDA), Escala de Realización Personal (ESAR) y un cuestionario sociodemográfico. Análisis de datos: Se realizó un análisis factorial exploratorio (AFE), se estudió la fiabilidad de los factores, se realizaron pruebas t y ANOVAs para las diferencias entre grupos, correlación de Pearson y regresión lineal simple. Resultados: El AFE arrojó dos factores que explican el 66.6% de la varianza. El disfrute puede conocerse a través de dos subescalas: afecto positivo e involucramiento. Las actividades que más disfrutan son las físico-deportivas, artísticas y sociales. Los varones presentan más involucramiento que las mujeres y los estudiantes secundarios presentan más involucramiento que los/as jóvenes de nivel universitario. El disfrute predice el sentido de realización personal. Estudios futuros permitirán conocer la capacidad del disfrute para predecir parámetros de salud y bienestar en población joven.

    Propiedades psicométricas de la Escala de Gaudibilidad (Moduladores de Disfrute) para Niños y Adolescentes (EGNA)
    (Universidad de Murcia. Servicio de Publicaciones, 2021) Padrós-Blázquez, Ferran; Martínez-Medina, María P.; Guardia-Olmos, Joan; Graff-Guerrero, Ariel
    La disminución de la capacidad de disfrute puede considerarse un factor de riesgo de trastornos mentales. Por ello, es de utilidad disponer de instrumentos válidos para evaluar la gaudibilidad en niños y adolescentes. El objetivo del presente trabajo fue construir y analizar las propiedades psicométricas de la Escala de Gaudibilidad para Niños y Adolescentes (EGNA). 1.264 estudiantes de primaria, secundaria y bachillerato respondieron a: EGNA, Escala de Autoestima de Rosenberg, Escalas Panas de afecto positivo y negativo para niños y adolescentes y la escala de Depresión del Centro de Estudios Epidemiológicos. Mediante un análisis facto-rial confirmatorio utilizando Weighted Least Square con una reparametrización con un valor de δ = .05 y forzando una estructura entre factores no ortogonal con el modelo de 5 factores (Disfrute en compañía, Autoeficacia frente al aburrimiento, Sentido del humor, Imaginación e interés) relacionados, los resultados (χ2/df = 9.40; CFI = .931; TLI = .946) indican que los índices de modificación no presentaron valores relevantes, de forma que no sería pertinente proponer ningún otro modelo alternativo. Además, se observó una consistencia interna adecuada (Cronbach α = .794) en la es-cala total y en los 5 factores. Finalmente se observaron adecuadas evidencias validez. Se concluye que la EGNA es adecuada para cuantificar los ni-veles de gaudibilidad en niños y adolescentes.

    Psychometric properties of Gaudiebility Scale (Modulators of Enjoyment) for Children and Adolescents (GSCA)
    (Universidad de Murcia. Servicio de Publicaciones, 2021) Padrós-Blázquez, Ferran; Martinez-Medina, María P.; Guàrdia Olmos, Joan; Graff-Guerrero, Ariel
    The decrease in the ability to enjoy can be considered a risk factor or marker of mental disorders. Therefore, it can be useful to have a scale to quantify gaudiebility in children and adolescents. The objective of the present work was to build and analyze the psychometric properties of the Gaudiebility Scale for Children and Adolescents (GSCA). 1,264 primary, secondary and high school students responded to GSCA, Rosenberg’s selfesteem scale, Positive and Negative Affect schedule, Center of Epidemiological Studies of Depression scale. Through a confirmatory factor analysis using WLSMV (Weighted Least Square) estimation with a reparameterization with a value of δ = .05 and forcing a non-orthogonal factor structure was observed to 5 factors model (Enjoyment in Company, Self-efficacy versus boredom, Sense of humor, Imagination and Interest) related, results (χ2/df = 9.40; CFI = .931; TLI = .946) indicate that the modification indices did not present relevant values, so it would not be pertinent to propose any other alternative model. In addition, an appropriate internal reliability (Cronbach α = .794) was observed in the total scale and in the 5 subscales. Finally, an adequate evidence of validity was observed. It is concluded that GSCA seems appropriate to quantify gaudiebility levels in children and adolescents.
