The aim of this study was to assess the reliability and construct validity of the Physical Literacy in Children Questionnaire (PL-C Quest) in Australian children aged 7-12 years. The results showed that the questionnaire has good test-retest reliability and construct validity, making it suitable for assessing children's physical literacy. Further research could be conducted to explore its validity in different age groups and cultural contexts.
Background: The Physical Literacy in Children Questionnaire (PL-C Quest) was developed to assess children's perceived physical literacy. Pictorial items assess 30 elements within four domains (Physical - 12 items, Psychological - 7 items, Social - 4 items and Cognitive - 7 items). The aim of this study was to assess the reliability and construct validity of the PL-C Quest in Australian children aged 7-12 years.Methods: In 2020, Australian parents and children were recruited via social media (Sample 1: n = 80) and panel sampling (Sample 2: n = 589). Parents consented online, completed demographic details and children completed the PL-C Quest online. Test-retest reliability was assessed in a sub-group of Sample 1 (n = 59). Internal consistency and construct validity [Structural Equation Modelling (SEM)] were assessed using combined samples. A Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) SEM was tested based on the hypothesized structure of four subdomains and a higher order factor of physical literacy.Results: Most parents were born in Australia (78%) and had a university education [University (61%), Trade (16%), High school (15%) and less than High school (8%)]. Children (59% boys; 40% girls; 1% other) had a mean age of 10.1 years (SD = 1.7). Physical literacy did not differ by age, but children of tertiary educated parents had higher physical literacy levels. Test-retest values (Mean = 15.8 days apart) were adequate to good [overall: ICC = 0.83, physical: ICC = 0.80, psychological: ICC = 0.76, social: ICC = 0.66, cognitive: ICC = 0.75]. Internal consistency values were as follows: overall: alpha = 0.92; physical: alpha = 0.82; psychological: alpha = 0.75; social: alpha = 0.72; cognitive: alpha = 0.77. All items except two loaded on sub-domains above 0.45. The final model had an adequate fit (SRMR = 0.043, CFI = 0.92, TLI = 0.90, RMSEA = 0.045).Conclusions: Results indicate the PL-C Quest has acceptable test-retest reliability and construct validity. Further research could seek to explore validity in children aged 5 and 6 years of age and in other cultural contexts.

Liliane De Sousa Morgado, Kristine De Martelaer, Arja Saakslahti, Kristy Howells, Lisa M. Barnett, Eva D'Hondt, Aldo M. Costa, Boris Jidovtseff

Summary: An international group of experts have developed a pictorial tool called the Pictorial Scale of Perceived Water Competence (PSPWC) to measure perceived water competence for children aged 5 to 8 years old. This study aimed to verify the validity of the tool by conducting interviews with children to investigate face validity and inviting international experts to assess content validity. The results showed that children were able to understand and sequence the aquatic situations correctly in 92% of the cases, and the average Content Validity Index (CVI) ranged from 0.88 to 0.95, indicating acceptable content validity. The feedback from experts and children led to improvements in the tool, making it suitable for different countries and cultures. The PSPWC has the potential to contribute to drowning prevention and children's aquatic education.

Educator-Perceived Barriers and Facilitators to Structured-Physical Activity in Early Childhood Centres: A Systematic Review

Alethea Jerebine, Theresa Heering, Lisa M. Barnett

Summary: This review synthesized qualitative literature to identify educator-perceived barriers and facilitators to structured physical activity (PA) in early childhood education and care (ECEC) centers, and mapped them to the COM-B model and Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF). The findings revealed that the greatest barriers were related to educator opportunity and capability, including competing time and priorities, policy tensions, indoor/outdoor space constraints, and lack of PA knowledge and skills. The study recommended interventions grounded in theory and a systems approach to target multiple levels of influence on educator behavior, while addressing societal barriers and structural challenges in the sector.

Identifying modifiable risk factors and screening strategies associated with anterior cruciate ligament injury risk in children aged 6 to 13 years: A systematic review

Theresa Heering, Tess L. Rolley, Natalie Lander, Aaron Fox, Lisa M. Barnett, Michael J. Duncan

Summary: The incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is increasing among 5-14-year-olds in various countries, but most research on injury risk reduction focuses on populations aged 13 years and above. This review found that modifiable risk factors are present in children aged 6-13 years, with factors such as knee adductor moments and knee valgus angles being mechanically linked to increased ACL loading at this age. The assessment methods used were mostly laboratory-based. It was concluded that injury risk reduction strategies should be implemented as early as possible and that screening strategies need to be updated for the specific needs of children in the wider community.

Primary School Teachers? Perceptions of Physical Literacy Assessment: A Mixed-Methods Study

Inimfon A. Essiet, Elyse Warner, Natalie J. Lander, Jo Salmon, Michael J. Duncan, Emma L. J. Eyre, Lisa M. Barnett

Summary: The study explores the perceptions of Australian primary school teachers on assessing children's physical literacy (PL) through a mixed-methods design. The results indicate that a majority of teachers support PL assessment and consider movement skills, engagement and enjoyment, relationships, and safety and risk as the most important assessment elements. However, some teachers express skepticism towards PL assessment due to doubts about its relevance and appropriateness, as well as the perceived implicit link between the curriculum and PL framework. The study suggests that professional development, resources, and suitable teacher assessments can enhance teachers' knowledge, confidence, and facilitate the implementation of PL assessments.

Child perceived motor competence as a moderator between physical activity parenting and child objectively measured physical activity

Arto Laukkanen, Donna Niemisto, Kaisa Aunola, Lisa M. Barnett, Arja Saakslahti

Summary: This longitudinal study aimed to examine the direct prediction of physical activity parenting (PAP) on children's moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and sedentariness, and whether the children's perception of motor competence (PMC) mediated or moderated this relationship. The results showed that PAP did not significantly predict MVPA or sedentary time, and PMC did not mediate the relationship. However, PMC moderated the relationship between PAP and MVPA, suggesting that family-based physical activity interventions should focus on children with low PMC.

A psychosocial investigation of exercise preferences in real and virtual environments

Robyn L. Moffitt

Summary: These three studies examined exercise preferences in real-world and virtual environments and their relationship with social physique anxiety, social comparison, and self-presentational efficacy. The results showed that individuals who preferred exercising at home tended to have lower exercise behavior and more negative fitness-related social comparisons. Those with lower exercise behavior, negative social comparisons, lower self-presentational efficacy, or higher social physique anxiety were more likely to choose virtual reality exercise over real-world exercise. In a virtual reality exercise setting, individuals with higher social physique anxiety and more negative social comparisons preferred embodying a nonhuman and fantasy avatar. The findings suggest that individuals who value self-presentation and have low belief in their competence to project a positive image are more likely to prefer exercise contexts that minimize physique and fitness evaluations. Additionally, virtual reality may offer a less threatening environment for individuals who feel self-conscious or inferior during exercise.

Martial arts, combat sports, and mental health in adults: A systematic review

Simone Ciaccioni, Oscar Castro, Fatimah Bahrami, Phillip D. Tomporowski, Laura Capranica, Stuart J. H. Biddle, Ineke Vergeer, Caterina Pesce

Summary: This systematic review examined the relationship between martial arts and combat sports training and the mental health of adult practitioners. The findings suggest inconclusive associations between martial arts and combat sports practice and self-related constructs, limited evidence of significant associations with sub-domains of ill-being and well-being, and consistent evidence of positive association with perceptual and inhibition abilities. However, the evidence on attention, memory, and the negative associations of boxing with changes in brain structure integrity was limited and inconclusive. The multifaceted nature of martial arts and combat sports may produce different outcomes on mental health, and factors such as activity exposure, expertise, level of competitive engagement, sex, and type of practice may moderate these effects. Further research is needed to enhance theoretical and practical approaches in this field.
