Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of controlling teacher behavior on
high school physical education students’ global intrinsic motivation, perceptions of the importance
of the subject matter, intentions to be physically active, level of physical activity, and life satisfaction.
The sample in this study was comprised of 416 Spanish high school students. Support for the
study’s expectations was provided through structural regression analysis. The analysis revealed
that a controlling teaching style was negatively associated with the global intrinsic motivation of the
students. In turn, global intrinsic motivation predicted the perceived importance of the subject matter,
which explained physical activity intentions. Physical activity intentions were positively associated
with level of physical activity, which, in turn, explained life satisfaction. The knowledge obtained in
this study can be of benefit to teachers and can be beneficial to the design of more adaptive learning
environments for students
