(1) Background: Cyberbullying is a social concern in adolescents. The practice of physical activity is a key factor in protection against cyberbullying related to the multiple psychological benefits. Therefore, the study sets out to analyse the relationship between amount, types, enjoyment of physical activity and performance in physical education with cyberbullying. (2) Methods: A sample of 867 adolescents between 12 and 19 years of age from two schools in Andalusia (Spain) was studied. A computer-based questionnaire given in the classroom was used, with two questions about the type of physical activity, one on physical education performance, the Scale of Enjoyment of Physical Activity (PACES) and the Spanish version of the European Cyberbullying Intervention Project Questionnaire (ECIPQ). (3) Results: Clear relationships were found between the practice of physical activity and cybervictimisation. However, less involvement has been observed among girls who practice physical activity in cyberaggression. (4) Conclusions: In relation to the types of physical activity, it seems that practising physical activities that involve competition can help to develop defence mechanisms against cyberaggression, as well as improve values to be less involved in cyberaggression.

Introducción: la importancia de las competencias comunicativas y el manejo de la expresión oral en la formación Universitaria viene recogida en distintos planes de estudios y asignaturas dentro del Espacio Europeo de Educación Superior. Estas competencias son prioritarias para el desarrollo profesional en distintos campos e implican el aprendizaje de una serie de habilidades que van desde el manejo de vocabulario adecuado, la organización del discurso y de la información, hasta la regulación de la ansiedad que suele provocar el hecho de hablar en público. Los objetivos del presente estudio son; 1 favorecer el aprendizaje de competencias orales y disminuir la ansiedad a hablar en público en estudiantes universitarios; 2. comprobar y comparar los efectos de las estrategias educativas y psicoeducativas aplicadas. Metodología: para ello se aplicó un experimento (pre-post) en el que se implementaron tres estrategias diferentes en una muestra de 51 participantes divididos en tres grupos, (grupo de intervención mediante taller; grupo de intervención mediante debate; grupo control). Resultados: se observan resultados positivos y eficaces en la mejora de competencias orales y confianza para hablar en público, así como una reducción de la ansiedad tras las distintas intervenciones. Discusión: estos hallazgos son relevantes para su implementación en programas específicos de mejora de las competencias comunicativas en el alumnado. Conclusiones: las intervenciones educativas y psicoeducativas mejoran la competencia oral y la ansiedad, siendo la aplicación de un taller de comunicación más efectiva que otras estrategias, consiguiendo generar un clima de participación activa en el aula.

Currently, the development of training programs in socioemotional skills in childhood has increased because they are considered as a valid tool for adaptation and coping with a variety of situations, both academic and personal. However, there are few studies that show a comprehensive view of available evidences. This research presents an umbrella review based on PRISMA method guidelines. It includes reviews on socio-emotional development programs applied in Primary Education with the aim of synthesizing their characteristics and compiling the main results on their effectiveness. The following databases were used: ERIC, WOS, PSYCINFO, SCOPUS and COCHRANE. After a blind peer process, 15 reviews that met the inclusion criteria were selected and analysed. Using the AMSTAR-2 and SANRA tools, it was found that 60% of secondary studies have critically low or low quality. Thirty nine programs reported in good quality reviews were identified, 51.2% presented moderate or strong evidence and reported significant effects mainly on behavioral adjustment, social and emotional competencies and academic skills. The impact of the methodological quality found and the evidences on the interpretation and generalization of the findings is discussed. En la actualidad ha aumentado el desarrollo de programas de entrenamiento en habilidades socioemocionales en la infancia, debido a que se los considera como una herramienta válida para la adaptación y afrontamiento de una gran variedad de situaciones, tanto académicas como personales. Sin embargo, son escasos los estudios que aporten una visión integral de las evidencias disponibles en el contexto de educación primaria. Se presenta una revisión sistemática de tipo paraguas basada en el método PRISMA, que incluye revisiones sobre programas de desarrollo socioemocional aplicados en educación primaria, con el objetivo de sintetizar sus características y recopilar los principales resultados reportados. Se utilizaron las bases de datos: ERIC, WOS, PSYCINFO, SCOPUS y COCHRANE. Tras un proceso por pares ciegos se seleccionaron y analizaron 15 revisiones. Utilizando las herramientas AMSTAR-2 y SANRA se encontró que el 60% de los estudios secundarios presenta una calidad críticamente baja o baja. Se identificaron 39 programas reportados en revisiones de buena calidad, un 51.2% presentaron evidencias moderadas o fuertes e informaron efectos significativos principalmente en ajuste del comportamiento, competencia social y emocional y habilidades académicas. Se discute el impacto de la calidad metodológica encontrada y las evidencias reportados en la interpretación y generalización de los hallazgos.

O presente trabalho aspira a verificar a eficácia de um programa de Expressão Corporal, na disciplina de Educação Física, sobre o desenvolvimento de Habilidades Socioafetivas em estudantes do 4º ano do Ensino Médio Obrigatório de um centro localizado em uma zona de transformação social. Para demonstrar essa eficácia, foi realizada uma investigação quase experimental pré-pós-teste, determinando que o programa gerava diferenças estatisticamente significativas nos alunos, aumentando os padrões de relacionamento e socialização. Da mesma forma, foram observadas mudanças na percepção da capacidade de resolução de conflitos, além de diferenças significativas associadas à idade e sexo dos participantes. O início de um grupo de discussão permitiu medir a satisfação ou transferir para a vida cotidiana as habilidades socioafetivas. Isso leva à conclusão de que a Expressão Corporal é uma ferramenta útil para o desenvolvimento das habilidades mencionadas.

Background: The influence of bullying on physical activity beyond school time is uncertain, as it can vary widely in terms of type, modality, duration, adult supervision, and objectives. Methods: This study aims to analyze the relationship between school bullying and the type of physical activity practised. To this end, a descriptive study was made of 2025 pre- and adolescents aged between 10 and 19 years, reporting on their participation in victimisation and perpetration. The EBIPQ and PAQ-A were used. An analysis of the relationships between these variables was carried out according to gender and type of activity practised. Results: The results showed a higher rate of victimisation in boys who did not practise physical activity. Meanwhile, perpetration was higher in those who practised organised physical activity, especially in boys. Depending on the type of physical activity, the higher levels of both victimisation and perpetration of those who practised wrestling activities stand out in comparison with other groups. Conclusions: It could be stated that physical activity may be a protective factor against bullying victimisation, especially in boys. However, participation in organised physical activity activities may be related to higher perpetration in this sample in adolescent boys.

Physical education classes can be a place where both bullying and harassment take place, and a powerful strategy is needed to prevent it. The present study analyses bullying and students’ behaviour as active or passive observers in a general educational context and physical education lessons. A sample of 958 adolescents aged 12 to 18 was studied. A questionnaire was used to analyse the victimisation and the bullying and behaviour observed. The results showed a lower incidence rate than that observed in other studies in physical education classes with a higher level of perpetration by boys than by girls and a more active rejection of aggression by victims and girls. On the other hand, passive attitudes were greater among perpetrators and boys. The observers’ attitudes were similar in both contexts. The scenario in which this subject takes place could reduce the risk of these phenomena occurring. Therefore, physical education teachers should analyse these behaviours and intervene, especially when creating awareness in boys.
