Effectiveness of Solution-Focused Brief Counselling in Dealing with Problems with Physical Education among Senior Students

Vinga Indriūnienė ; Lithuanian Sports University

Sažetak

Some scholars (Barr-Anderson et al., 2008; Cairney et al., 2012) have suggested that deficiencies in physical education (PE) classes are an important cause of the age-related decline in physical activity. The school PE curricula are ineffective and should be improved (Cairney et al., 2012). The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of solution-focused brief counselling (SFBC) as a method of dealing with the problems faced by senior students during physical education classes with a view to developing interventions to increase students’ physical activity.
Solution-focused brief counselling (SFBC) was applied as a method of dealing with the problems faced by senior students during physical education classes with a view to developing interventions to increase students’ physical activity. Following SFBC, 66.3% of participants reported medium or major progress in dealing with a severe problem related to physical activity (F = 164.30, p = .001 compared to control group) and physical education teachers observed positive changes in the students’ behaviour during physical education classes (Communication problems: t=10.86, p < .001; Insufficient involvement in PE classes: t=8.43, p < .001). SFBC is suitable for counselling adolescents at school as it is a brief, well-structured and flexible approach that helps to improve the quality of physical education classes.
