“…Specifically, these differences were statistically significant in the case of all the dimensions of physical self-concept analyzed, in the athletic identity, and the intention to be physically active at the end of schooling. These results are in line with several studies that have found that women usually present lower averages in physical self-concept than men [56,58,84,85]. This finding is in line with [55], who points out that the most significant differences in physical self-concept between genders are found in the adolescent stage.…”

“…However, other research presents little relationship between the perception of physical attraction and the practice of physical activity, being excluded this variable in most cases [55]. About the analysis of physical self-concept in terms of gender, various studies have shown that women tend to have a lower assessment than men, and the dimensions related to physical-sports practice also differ [55][56][57][58].…”

The acquisition of physical activity habits during adolescence is fundamental to guarantee its adherence throughout life. However, these levels decrease during this stage, with women experimenting a more significant decrease. This paper aims to analyze if there are significant differences in the variables related to the intention to be physically active between men and women and if there is a moderating effect of gender on the variables that predict this intention. The sample is composed of 256 adolescents, aged between 16 and 19 years, 55.50% of whom are men, and 44.50% women. The results show that there are statistically significant differences (p < 0.05), with boys showing higher scores in the intention, athletic identity, and in the strength, condition, and attractiveness. About the predictive variables of the intention, the gender moderates the relationships between the physical attractiveness, condition and strength with the perceived behavioral control (pcfmale-pcfmale = 0.44; −0.48 p < 0.001; 0.27, p < 0.05, respectively), and between the subjective norm and the intention to be physically active (pcmale-female = 0.33, p < 0.01). These results highlight the importance of considering gender when designing specific policies for the promotion of physical-sports practice among adolescents to reduce the existing gender gap.

“…In relation to physical self-concept, significant differences were found between groups in the dimension of ability, physical condition and general self-concept, with the group of healthy children presenting the highest score. The results obtained in the physical self-concept are similar to those provided in healthy adolescents by Etxaniz 25 and Revuelta and Esnaola 26 but higher than the study with boys and girls aged 11 to 17 years of Soriano et al 27 However, Chiang et al 28 enc or NTRA not any significant differences in physical self -concept of asthmatics and healthy children of similar age to those in this study.…”

Introduction Children who are more active enjoy sports, have confidence in their ability to engage in physical activity, feel competent and perceive fewer barriers to physical activity. Objective Psychosocially characterize the asthmatic child’s relationship with enjoyable physical activity, physical self-concept, health and perceived quality of life. Method Eighty asthmatic children (age = 11.33 ± 1.10 years, body mass index [BMI] = 20.52 ± 3.83 kg/m2) and 80 healthy children (age = 11.18 ± 1.00 years, BMI = 20.81 ± 4.24 kg/m2) participated in the study. The Physical Activity Enjoyment Scale (PACES), Physical Activity Questionnaire for Children (PAQ-C), the Physical Self-concept Questionnaire (CAF) and the Pediatric Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (PAQLQ) were used. Results In the PACES questionnaire, healthy children had a better level of general physical activity while in the CAF questionnaire, significant differences were found in ability, physical fitness and general self-concept, which were higher in healthy children. There is a significant correlation between the PAQ-C and ability, general physical self-concept, PACES and total PAQLQ in asthmatic children. Conclusion Asthmatic children had lower levels of physical activity, physical self-concept and enjoyment in physical activity than healthy children. Level of evidence II; Retrospective study.

“…Regarding the relation between physical self-concept and gender, the researches reveal that generally, the feminine gender has a worse self-concept than masculine gender, during Primary Education and also Secondary Education (Barrio, Gómez-Ruano and Barriopedro, 2017;Coelho, Sousa and Figueira, 2014;Esnaola, 2005;Hortigüela-Alcalá and Pérez-Pueyo, 2015;Marsh, Gerlach, Trautwein, Ludtke and Brettschneider, 2007;Moreno et al, 2008;Revuelta, Esnaola and Goñi, 2013;Sánchez-Alcaraz and Gómez-Marmol, 2014;Soriano, Navas and Holgado, 2011).…”

This research aim was to determine what happens to physical self-concept during compulsory schooling. 1419 students from Primary (n = 619) and Secondary School (n = 800) participated: 640 boys and 779 girls; Mage = 12.81, SD = 1.93. There were statistically significant differences in age and educational stage, regarding physical condition (PhC) (p < .001), appearance (AP) (p < .001), perceived competence (PC) (p < .001), strength (St) (p < .001) and self-esteem (SE) (p < .001); In the gender factor in PhC (p = .005). Results showed a decrease in PhC, AP, PC, St and SE in the passage from Primary to Secondary School, as these variables are higher in boys than in girls. Based on results, it should be reflected on teaching practice and methodology used in these ages, because physical self-concept is an important factor for becoming and remaining physically active.
