Behaviours involved in the role of victim and aggressor in bullying: Relationship with physical fitness in adolescents
Benítez Sillero, Juan de Dios; Corredor-Corredor, Diego; Ortega Ruiz, Rosario; Córdoba Alcaide, F.
Physical fitness is related to well-being and health. Adolescence is a key period in the psychological and social development of the person, in which interpersonal relationships gain strength, being bullying a type of violence that can affect the personality of those involved. At present, there is not enough research to determine the relationships between bullying and physical condition. The purpose of this study is to find out if there are any relationships among physical fitness, victimisation, and aggression in bullying, and to identify these behaviours. This is a descriptive study done in 1035 adolescents aged 12 to 17 years (M = 14.67, SD = 1.49). The European Bullying Intervention Project Questionnaire (EBIPQ) scale was used, and anthropometric characteristics of weight and height were measured. In addition, physical fitness tests from the Eurofit battery, sit-and-reach, 30-second sit-ups, horizontal jump, manual dynamometry, and 20-meter Multistage Shuttle Run Test (SRT) were included. The relationships between variables were analysed using Spearman correlations, linear regressions, and ordinal regressions. The most relevant findings indicate an inverse relationship between being a victim of bullying and having a better cardiorespiratory cardiovascular endurance. These also show a direct relationship between being a bully and skeletal muscle strength measured through the horizontal jump, 30-second sit-ups, and manual dynamometry tests. Theoretically, we can conclude that physical condition can be considered a predictor to consider in bullying. Specifically, cardiorespiratory fitness, in addition to its multiple physical and mental benefits, may be a protective element against bullying victimisation. In contrast, muscular strength, especially in boys, may be an important predictor, especially in the physical component, of aggression in bullying.

Determining Factors of Psychological Performance and Differences among Age Categories in Youth Football Players

Within the determining factors of psychological performance, mental toughness is considered a multidimensional factor, comprising cognitive, affective, and behavioural components together with self-confidence, which is related to success in sports performance as well as psychological health and well-being. The aim of this study was to analyse the relationship between different factors composing mental toughness and age categories in young football players, in order to determine the presence of specific psychological skills in their formative progression. A total of 118 male players (16.91 ± 2.42 years old) completed the Spanish version by Cernuda (1988) of the original Psychological Performance Inventory (PPI) by Loher (1982, 1986). The results indicated significant differences in four variables (negative energy control, attention control, visual and image control, motivational level) on three different age categories, where the U19 category showed the best results for all the variables, decreasing afterwards in the semi-professional category. Significant correlations were established between mental toughness variables and age categories, where the age category variable was significantly correlated in a positive way with attention control, visual and image control, and motivational level. In the same line, the variable self-confidence correlated positively with negative energy control, attention control, motivational level, attention control, and positive energy. The assessment of psychological variables such as mental toughness, taking into account the formative stage, may be helpful for both coaches and players when selecting adequate mental skill training for improving competitive performance and sporting success, as well as for positive and healthy psychological development and well-being.

Relationship between Amount, Type, Enjoyment of Physical Activity and Physical Education Performance with Cyberbullying in Adolescents

(1) Background: Cyberbullying is a social concern in adolescents. The practice of physical activity is a key factor in protection against cyberbullying related to the multiple psychological benefits. Therefore, the study sets out to analyse the relationship between amount, types, enjoyment of physical activity and performance in physical education with cyberbullying. (2) Methods: A sample of 867 adolescents between 12 and 19 years of age from two schools in Andalusia (Spain) was studied. A computer-based questionnaire given in the classroom was used, with two questions about the type of physical activity, one on physical education performance, the Scale of Enjoyment of Physical Activity (PACES) and the Spanish version of the European Cyberbullying Intervention Project Questionnaire (ECIPQ). (3) Results: Clear relationships were found between the practice of physical activity and cybervictimisation. However, less involvement has been observed among girls who practice physical activity in cyberaggression. (4) Conclusions: In relation to the types of physical activity, it seems that practising physical activities that involve competition can help to develop defence mechanisms against cyberaggression, as well as improve values to be less involved in cyberaggression.

Achievement goal orientations and perceived physical competence profiles in adolescent physical activity
Nicolosi, Simona; Ortega Ruiz, Rosario; Benítez Sillero, Juan de Dios
The objective of this study was to analyze the relationships between achievement goals
and perceived physical competence in a sample of 4493 adolescents between 12 and 18 years of age
(M=14.92, SD=2.08). A cluster analysis was performed to (1) identify cluster profiles of the adolescents
based on their goal orientations and perceived physical competence, and (2) assess whether clusters
differed in gender, age, and participation in physical activity.
Three stable clusters reflecting different achievement goals and perceived physical competence profiles
were identified: high, moderate, and low task orientation and perceived competence. Differences were
found in genders, age, and physical activity frequency. The discussion focuses on the implications for
educators, physical education teachers, and coaches and provides information for possible strategies to
foster physical activity in adolescents.; El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar las relaciones entre las metas de logro y la competencia física percibida en una muestra de 4493 adolescentes entre 12 y 18 años de edad (M=14.92, DE=2.08). Se realizó un análisis de conglomerados para (1) identificar los perfiles de conglomerados de los adolescentes en base a sus orientaciones de metas y su competencia física percibida, y (2) evaluar si los conglomerados diferían en género, edad y participación en la actividad física. Se identificaron tres conglomerados estables que reflejaban diferentes objetivos de logro y perfiles de competencia física percibida: orientación a las tareas alta, moderada y baja, y competencia percibida. Se encontraron diferencias en cuanto al género, la edad y la frecuencia de la actividad física. La discusión se centra en las implicaciones que estos resultados podrían ofrecer a educadores, los profesores de educación física y los entrenadores, proporcionando información sobre posibles estrategias para fomentar la actividad física en los adolescentes.
