The Influence of Emotional Factors in Meaningful Physical Education

Abstract

Significant Physical Education is an educational process that seeks to create a deeper and more lasting learning in students, by relating new knowledge in the field of physical education to previous and relevant experiences such as motivation, attention, emotion, and interest. The aim of this article was to reflect on how emotional factors in students influence their ability to learn Physical Education significantly, from a theoretical perspective. The results indicate that students who experience positive emotions during Physical Education practices, such as motivation, interest, and joy, are more likely to apply this knowledge in relevant situations throughout their lives. It is concluded that emotional factors are essential for the development of significant Physical Education, so an emotionally favorable environment should be fostered in classes where students are engaged and participate in planned activities.
