Sažetak
Vallerand (2007), suggests a hypothesis stating that the impact of the environment on individuals takes place through a causal chain of processes. Dropping out of organized kinesiological engagement (sports, dance or recreational activity) in adolescence is very common, and it is assumed that it is not necessarily induced by an “objective” reason. The aim of this research was to establish the relations between motivation in physical education classes and dropping out of organized kinesiological engagement occurring in adolescence. The subject sample included 305 students of finishing grades from primary schools in Trogir, Kaštela and Solin. Variables of motivation in physical education classes as well as the frequency of organized kinesiological engagement of adolescents were measured by PEMS – Physical Education Motivation Scale (Milavić, Milić, Jurko, Grgantov, & Marić, 2013) and the adapted TEOSQ-PE questionnaire. There were no differences between male and female students regarding the frequency of involvement in organized kinesiological engagement: 52 % of the male sample and the female sample are constantly active, while 39 % of female students and 34 % of male students have dropped out of organized kinesiological engagement. In female students, differences were found between the groups of constantly active and drop-outs in most of the measured motivation variables (mostly measures of intrinsic motivation and measures of amotivation), while in male students, differences were found in two measures of motivation (measure of amotivation and measure of intrinsic motivation to accomplish things). By discriminant analysis, the difference was established in the sample of female students between the groups of constantly active and drop-outs regarding the motivation in physical education classes, but no differences were found in the sample of male students. The group of drop-outs from the organized kinesiological engagement in female students is characterized by higher values of amotivation in physical education classes, while the group of constantly active female students is characterized by a higher level of intrinsic motivation, but also partly by extrinsic motivation in physical education classes. Results of this research call attention to the necessity of further research of relations of motivation in physical education classes and involvement in organized kinesiological engagement of adolescents, with the purpose of establishing the causal relations.
