Congratulations to dr. Vitalija Putriūtė
upon successful defense of a doctoral dissertation ‘‘The Importance of Tearcher’s
autonomy support and control for motivation and physical activity among high school students”
(Scientific supervisor:
Prof. dr. Arūnas Emeljanovas ) and acquisition
doctoral degree in social sciences education.
The dissertation summary is available in the library of the Lithuanian Sports University. The dissertation is available at:
6 Sporto St., Lithuanian Sports University, and a brief annotation of it is presented below.
About 80% of adolescents worldwide do not meet the recommendations (Van Hecke et al., 2016; Van Hecke et al., 2016; U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2018) to engage in moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) at least 50% percent of physical education (PE) lesson time (NASPE, 2004; Pate et al., 2006).
The aim of the research was to evaluate the significance of teachers’ perceived motivational factors for the motivation of older students to be physically active and physically active in physical education lessons and leisure-time.
Applying the trans-contextual model, a more detailed understanding of how perceived factors of PE teachers’ support for autonomy or control through students’ motivational factors are related to physical activity in PE lessons and leisure-time is expected. The obtained conclusions showed that: Autonomy support is also indirectly related to leisure-time physical activity, positively mediating autonomous motivation to be physically active in leisure-time with autonomous motivation to be physically active in physical education lessons, and mediating autonomous motivation to be physically active in physical education lessons and intentions to be physically active in leisure time.[:]

The virtual, interactive Summer School 2021, hosted by the University of Jyväskylä, provides PhD/Doctoral students with an opportunity to present and receive feedback on their research, participate in online workshops related to their topic and methodology of research, and engage with research issues in their small tutorial groups, which offer safe and constructive spaces for debate and discussion. The aim of the EERA Summer School 2021 is to support the students in their endeavour in producing methodologically excellent research with sensitivity to ethical issues.
High quality student-centered constructivist pedagogy will be applied, and students’ learning will be enhanced by inspiring, international keynote lectures. The summer school offers a possibility to discuss one’s own research and ideas in a friendly, relaxed, and encouraging atmosphere. During the summer school, the students will have a possibility to work in online groups, which are organised based on research themes and methodological choices of their study. Interactive, innovative group work will be used, and various types of discussions and participatory activities.
