abstract = {Purpose: This study aims to analyze the effects of a service learning (SL) program on
the subjective happiness (SH), prosocial behavior (PB), and professional learning (PL)
perceptions of Physical Education Teacher Education (PETE) students as well as to
examine the correlations among these variables.
Methods: The study used a quasi-experimental design of two non-equivalent groups
(control and experimental) comparing pre-test and post-test data. The instruments
used were the Subjective Happiness Scale, the Prosocial and Civic Competence
questionnaire, and the Impact of Service Learning during Initial Training of Physical
Activity and Sports questionnaire.
Results: Data indicated that SL only had a significant influence on SH when the
students compared themselves with their peers. On the other hand, the effect of SL
on promoting PB and PL perceived was significant in several of their dimensions. Finally,
the results showed a greater correlation of the perceived PL with the PB than with the
SH.
Discussion/Conclusion: The results of the study provide educational researchers
with valuable information to better understand how SL influences the training of
PETE students.},
