Abstract

Introduction. The present study analyzes the psychometric properties of the In"uences on the Planning Decision-Making in Physical Education Questionnaire (CIPEF). Literature had contributed instruments for measuring beliefs and value orientations toward Physical Education, but there are no instruments that measure the in"uence of speci$c factors on teachers’ decision-making when planning Physical Education. Method. =e sample consisted of 335 Andalusian teachers (238 men and 97 women, average age = 29.85 ± 10.94 years). Exploratory and con$rmatory analyses were conducted in order to analyze the factorial structure of the questionnaire. Results. The results showed the viability and adequacy of an eight-factor structure (curriculum standards, preservice training, physical environment, teaching experiences, physical activities experiences, socialization by other teachers, material and equipment, and level of preparation in the subject matters) with adequate t indices of reliability and validity, and showing strong evidences of stability of the obtained factorial structure. Discussion. =is instrument could be used in the analysis of teachers’ planning decision-making, which has been studied mainly through qualitative approaches up till now. Further research is recommended in order to corroborate these findings.
