- PublicationOpen AccessImpact of learning strategies on psychological well-being, academic performance, and physical education outcomes among university students: A case study at Hanoi Metropolitan University, Vietnam(Universidad de Murcia. Servicio de Publicaciones, ) Kien, Phan Trung; Khanh, Mai Quoc; Tinh, Tran TrungThis study examined the impact of learning strategies on psychological well-being, academic performance, and physical education outcomes among university students at Hanoi Metropolitan University, Vietnam. Using a mixed-methods approach, quantitative data were collected from 500 students via structured surveys, while qualitative insights were gathered through semi-structured interviews with 25 participants. Quantitative findings reveal that students employing cognitive and metacognitive strategies, such as goal-setting, self-monitoring, and elaboration, achieved significantly higher GPAs, reported lower stress levels, and exhibited greater engagement in physical education activities compared to those with minimal strategy use. High strategy users had an average GPA of 3.72 and stress levels of 12.8 (GHQ-28), outperforming low strategy users, whose respective averages were 2.98 and 18.4. Qualitative data further highlighted the transformative role of adaptive strategies in managing academic responsibilities and mitigating stress. High strategy users reported feeling more organized, confident, and motivated, both academically and physically, by setting clear goals and tracking progress. In contrast, low strategy users often described challenges related to procrastination, disorganization, and lack of motivation, which negatively impacted their academic and physical engagement. These findings provide empirical evidence supporting the inclusion of learning strategies in educational policies to enhance student well-being, performance, and physical education outcomes.

Based on the results, increasing practical coaching for football students further enhances their football skills. The relationship between game competition (GC) and students’ football skills development (SFSD) was significant (β = 0.929; p=0.000). Also, the relationship between experimental teaching and training program (ETTP) and football skills was significant (β =0.875; p=0.000). Therefore, football skills were developed with the program and the majority of students performed exceptionally well during and after the completion of the program. The results show that students’ performance increased significantly as compared to former theory-based models. Also, students’ level of engagement increased with the new experimental training program. The experimental training program was developed to overcome the weakness of the current football training program, which was lacking in skills development and student engagement.
- PublicationOpen AccessSelf-concept in physical education for post-pandemic school health improvement(Universidad de Murcia. Servicio de Publicaciones, ) Galán Arroyo, Carmen; Batista Da Silva, Marco A.; Rojo Ramos, JorgeSelf-concept is one of the key aspects of personality development. It is relevant because it affects how a person sees him/herself and how he/she relates to others. During adolescence, self-perception tends to be highly variable due to the inherent changes of this stage, being a critical period in which to foster a healthy and confident personality. Add to this the critical circumstances experienced during the pandemic and it becomes a bombshell. Physical education classes, can promote the self-concept and improve school health. The aim of the study was to analyse self-concept in Spanish adolescents of physical education by sex, school location, age, educational level and body mass index (BMI) after the pandemic. A crosssectional study of 961 students’ physical education classes in public schools in Extremadura (Spain) was obtained and administered the Self-Concept Questionnaire version 5 (AF-5). The results showed that there is an association between AF-5 and sex, where adolescent girls have lower self-concept; there is a slight inverse relationship between AF-5 with age and BMI and there is no significant association between AF-5 and school location. In conclusion, knowing the relevant factors of self-concept after covid allows the educational community to implement tools for the optimal development of self-concept in Physical Education students, thus performance of adolescents.
