- Abstract
- The purpose of the present study was to develop a reliable and psychometrically sound French questionnaire related to the Expectancy-Value theory in physical education. Four stages were followed: (1) the development of a preliminary version based on the findings of a literature review on expectancy-value and a committee process validation; (2) a first study conducted on 354 secondary school students (Mage = 14.3, SD = 1.9) to establish the factor structure (exploratory factor analyses), and internal reliability (Cronbach’s alpha coefficients) of this questionnaire; (3) a second study based on 282 secondary school students (Mage = 14.9, SD = 1.9) to verify the factor structure and internal reliability of the questionnaire and to test its predictive validity (multiple-regression analysis); (4) a third study with 329 students (Mage = 13.7, SD = 1.6) to further test the factor structure (confirmatory factor analyses) and test the temporal stability of the questionnaire. The results demonstrated strong support for the psychometric properties and factor structure of the questionnaire. The final form of the questionnaire consists of a four-factor structure based on 17 items that evaluate expectancy-related beliefs (six items) and subjective task values in physical education (four items for attainment value, three items for utility value, and four items for intrinsic interest value). This questionnaire will be useful for the development of future studies based on expectancy-value model in secondary school physical education in French-language countries.
