Résumé
The aim of this study was to analyse the mediating role of Physical Education importance
and satisfaction/fun between the dispositional goal orientations of secondary school students
and their intention to partake in leisure time physical activity. The research design was descriptive,
cross-sectional, and non-randomized. In total, 2102 secondary school students participated
(Mage = 14.87; SD = 1.39) (1024 males; 1078 females). The scales used were the Perception of Success
Questionnaire, Importance of Physical Education, Satisfaction with Physical Education, and Intention
to Participate in Leisure Time Physical Activity. Structural equation models with the latent variables
were also calculated. The results highlight that Physical Education satisfaction/fun has a mediating
effect between task orientation and the intention to practice physical activity during leisure time.
