Influencia del SĂndrome de Burnout, niveles de estrĂ©s, lenguaje no verbal e Inteligencia Emocional en el desarrollo competencial de profesionales docentes universitarios
El presente estudio persigue conocer aquellos factores que influyen en el desarrollo profesional de los docentes universitarios, centrándose más especĂficamente sobre factores psicosociales relacionados con el bienestar mental, como la Inteligencia Emocional, los niveles de estrĂ©s, el SĂndrome de Burnout y el Lenguaje no verbal, asĂ como las posibles relaciones existentes entre estos constructos. Para el análisis de los datos se ha seguido una metodologĂa cuantitativa de corte transversal, la cual se ha llevado a cabo sobre una muestra de 1316 profesores universitarios de toda España. Los resultados pusieron de relieve que la Inteligencia emocional se relaciona positivamente con el lenguaje no verbal, asĂ como que la práctica de actividad fĂsica y la de carácter mental contribuyen a reducir los niveles de estrĂ©s. En este mismo sentido destacar que el SĂndrome de Burnout, obviamente se relaciona positivamente con el estrĂ©s y con la dimensiĂłn de atenciĂłn emocional.The present study seeks to know those factors that influence the professional development of university teachers, focusing more specifically on psychosocial factors related to mental well-being, such as Emotional Intelligence, stress levels, Burnout Syndrome and non-verbal language. as well as the possible relationships between these constructs. For the analysis of the data, a quantitative cross-sectional methodology was followed, which was carried out on a sample of 1316 university professors from all over Spain. The results showed that Emotional Intelligence is positively related to non-verbal language, and that the practice of physical activity and mental activity contribute to reducing stress levels. In this same sense highlight that the Burnout Syndrome, obviously is positively related to stress and the dimension of emotional attention.Tesis Univ. JaĂ©n.

Analysis of Motivational Climate, Emotional Intelligence, and Healthy Habits in Physical Education Teachers of the Future Using Structural Equations
This study developed a Structural Equation Model (SEM) in order to identify the associations
between motivational climate, emotional intelligence, adherence to the Mediterranean Diet (MD),
Physical Activity (PA), and some health indicators in a sample of future teachers. A non-experimental
and cross-sectional study was carried in 775 university students (22.22 3.76), using as main scales
the Perceived Motivational Climate in Sport Questionnaire (PMCSQ-2), Emotional Intelligence
Inventory adapted for the sport context, Physical Activity Questionnaire for Adolescents (PAQ-A),
Mediterranean Diet Quality Index (KIDMED), 20 meter Shuttle Run Test (20mSRT), and percentage of
lean and fat mass as calculated by the Tanita TBF300®®(Tanita-Corporation, Tokyo, Japan) electronic
scale. The results showed a positive association between emotional intelligence and task climate,
whereas the relationship with an ego climate was low. Ego-oriented climate was positively related to
MD and high levels of PA. Emotional intelligence was directly related to higher levels of PA and the
level of adherence to MD. PA was negatively associated with fat mass and positively with lean mass
and VO2MAX. Task-oriented motivational climate showed a positive relation with the emotional
intelligence of young people. Ego-oriented motivational climates were related to higher rates of
physical-sport engagement and better diet quality
Alcohol, Tobacco and Cannabis Consumption on Physical Activity and Physical and Social Self-Concept in Secondary School Students: An Explanatory Model Regarding Gender
Nowadays, the adolescent population consumes substances that are harmful to health at
an earlier age. Therefore, the present research aimed to (i) develop an explanatory model of tobacco,
alcohol, and cannabis consumption on physical self-concept, social self-concept, and physical activity
practice and (ii) contrast the model through a multi-group analysis according to the gender of the
participants. For this purpose, descriptive, comparative, and cross-sectional research was carried out
on adolescent students (M = 13.91; SD = 1.31, years), using the Self-Concept Form 5 Questionnaire,
the Physical Activity Questionnaire for Adolescents (PAQ-A), and the State Survey on Drug Use
in Secondary Education (ETUDES) for data collection. Findings revealed that the consumption of
harmful substances has a positive impact on the social area and the practice of physical exercise,
showing a negative relationship between the latter variable and the social and physical area of
self-concept
Photography and sport: Study of the didactic value of reference images in photojournalism, analysis of the winning photos of the World Press Photo in 2017
The media offer, on a daily basis, an idea of sport that influences citizenship's understanding of physical activity. In the case of photography, the visual narrative that appears in the press has a great aesthetic beauty and a show character, focusing mostly on the professional and competitive dimension. This research studies the winning photographs in the World Press Photo photojournalism contest, the most prestigious international photojournalism competition. In particular, the winning works of the 2017 edition were analysed from the perspective of content analysis, with a particular focus on formal and compositional aspects, including photographic technique, as well as the didactic values contained in these images. One of the most important conclusions of this research is the epic and elite-focused dimension of the activity in the most influential photos published in the press. The message of these images associates sport with the professional elite and not with everyday activity or healthy lifestyle habits
Design and Validation of the Non-Verbal Immediacy Scale (NVIS) for the Evaluation of Non-Verbal Language in University Professors
Knowledge and awareness of how to use non-verbal language is essential for the educational
field. For this reason, the aim of this study was to develop a validation that validly and
reliably measures the analysis of non-verbal language in university teachers. Content validation
was carried out by applying the Delphi technique and through an exploratory and confirmatory
analysis. The validity of understanding is given by the application of the scale to 1316 university
teachers between 24 and 67 years of age. The initial data collected through the Delphi technique
provided some modifications. The final scale, called Non-verbal immediacy, was composed of a total
of 26 items that presented satisfactory adjustments in both comprehension and outcome validity.
Confirmatory factor analysis determined three dimensions (kinesics, paralanguage, and proxemics).
These factors will be a new element for future lines of research related to the teaching-learning process,
as high relationships have been demonstrated between non-verbal language and psychosocial aspects
implicit in teaching practice, as well as comprehension and student learning
Emotional Intelligence, Physical Activity Practice and Mediterranean Diet Adherence-An Explanatory Model in Elementary Education School Students
Currently, there is a global concern with regard to the lifestyles of young people. This study
aims to study the association between Mediterranean diet adherence, emotional intelligence and
physical activity practice in teenagers in the last cycle of elementary education. In turn, this objective
is divided into (a) developing an explanatory model of the practice of physical activity, Mediterranean
diet adherence and emotional intelligence; and (b) developing a multi-group model according to
the gender of the participants. A descriptive, cross-sectional, comparative study was conducted in
a sample of 293 elementary school students (M = 11.45; S.D = 0.31). The instruments used were an
ad hoc socio-demographic questionnaire, the Trait Meta Mood Scale-24, the KIDMED questionnaire
and the Physical Activity Questionnaire for Older Children. The results show that males show a
positive relationship between adherence to the Mediterranean diet and emotional intelligence and
between emotional intelligence and physical activity. In contrast, in the case of females, a negative
relationship was observed between emotional intelligence and physical activity. In conclusion, it can
be seen that gender plays a fundamental role in adolescence, being a key factor influencing an active
and healthy lifestyle
An Explanatory Model of Sport Motivation, Physical Self-Concept and Anxiety as a Function of the Degree of Adherence to the Mediterranean Diet in Future Physical Education Teachers
The present research has the objectives of establishing the relationship between motivational climate towards sport, anxiety, and physical self-concept, and identifying the existing relationships between anxiety, motivational climate, and physical self-concept, broken down into (a) developing an explanatory model of the motivational climate towards sport and its relationship with anxiety and physical self-concept, and (b) contrasting the structural model by means of a multi-group analysis according to the degree of adherence to the Mediterranean diet. A quantitative, comparative, non-experimental (ex post facto), cross-sectional study was carried out with a total sample of 556 participants (23.06 +/- 6.23). The instruments used were an ad hoc questionnaire and the Spanish versions of the Perceived Motivational Climate in Sport Questionnaire 2, Beck Anxiety Inventory, Self-Concept Form-5, and the PREDIMED questionnaire. The data reveal that participants who show high adherence to the Mediterranean diet attain higher scores on physical self-concept and anxiety, as well as ego-climate. As a conclusion, it is observed that participants who show a high adherence to the Mediterranean diet show higher scores in physical self-concept and anxiety, as well as in all the variables that make up the ego-climate
Emotional intelligence in university Physical Education teachers
Currently, teaching is one of the professions most highly affected by stress due to the large number of tasks involved and the continuous contact with students, among others, which generate weariness towards the profession, hence the importance of developing high levels of Emotional Intelligence. Why this is so important is that it enables teachers to deal optimally with frustration, and to know how to act appropriately when facing the various situations that arise in a classroom, as well as giving them the ability to communicate and listen, and thus adapt themselves to those situations. These factors are necessary to ensure the promotion of a correct teaching-learning process. By means of this research we aim to discover the mental state of university teachers by conducting a cross-sectional and descriptive study. As a data collection instrument, the TMMS-24 was applied to a sample of Physical Education teachers working in universities. The results showed that people who teach this subject have good levels of empathy with their students, possessing the ability to understand and empathise with them, thus having a good ability to control their feelings, and thus enhancing their mental well-being, which is reflected in the teacher’s job satisfactio
Resilience, Stress, and Burnout Syndrome According to Study Hours in Spanish Public Education School Teacher Applicants: An ExplanatoryModel as a Function ofWeekly Physical Activity Practice Time
The selection process for the teaching profession in public elementary education is difficult,
which can lead to the appearance of disruptive states in applicants. For this reason, the present
study aimed to establish the relationship between study hours and the levels of stress, burnout,
and resilience in applicants to the Spanish public teaching profession. Accordingly, this objective
was achieved by (a) developing an explanatory model of study hours according to levels of stress,
burnout, and resilience, and (b) contrasting this model through a multigroup analysis according to
whether students performed more than 3 h of physical activity per week. A descriptive, comparative,
cross-sectional study was carried out on a sample of 4117 applicants (31.03 6.800), using an ad
hoc socio-demographic questionnaire, the Perceived Stress Scale, the Maslach Burnout Inventory,
and the Connor–Davidson Resilience Scale for data collection. The results revealed that participants
who practiced more than 3 h of physical activity per week showed lower levels of stress and burnout
syndrome, manifesting higher levels of resilience. Furthermore, better associations between resilience
and the other constructs were also observed for people who practiced more than 3 h of physical
activity per week. In conclusion, the practice of physical activity can help to decrease stress and
develop key elements for the selective exam of the Spanish public teaching corps
Mediterranean diet adherence on self-concept and anxiety as a function of weekly physical activity: an explanatory model in higher education
IntroductionScientific literature has now demonstrated the benefits of an active lifestyle for people's psychological health. Based on the above statement, the aim was to (a) evaluate and adjust a structural equation model containing the variables anxiety, self-concept, and Mediterranean diet adherence and (b) contrast the proposed theoretical model by studying the differences between the variables according to the level of weekly physical activity in a sample of 558 university students. MethodsA non-experimental, exploratory, cross-sectional investigation has been proposed. Instruments such as the PREDIMED Questionnaire, the Beck Anxiety Inventory, the International Physical Activity Questionnaire, and the Form 5 Self-Concept Questionnaire were used to collect data. Results and discussionThe results illustrate that students showing low adherence to the Mediterranean diet had higher levels of anxiety (M = 0.95) than those showing a high degree of adherence (M = 0.75). It is also observed that young people with a high degree of adherence to the Mediterranean diet report higher scores in the different dimensions of self-concept compared to young people with a low degree of adherence. In conclusion, it is affirmed that young people who show a high degree of adherence to this dietary pattern show lower levels of anxiety and greater recognition of the different areas of their self-concept
