  KEYWORDS: Expectancy-Value Model, Motivational Climates, Quality of Life, Physical Activity

  JOURNAL NAME: Advances in Physical Education, Vol.7 No.2, May 16, 2017

  ABSTRACT: This review paper explores the motivational processes in physical education related to physical activity and health-related quality of life among children and adolescents. First, we review the existing body of literature relating to children’s health-related quality of life. Next, we present the expectancy-value model of achievement choice as a framework for investigating how children’s motivation in physical activity settings interacts with physical activity and health-related quality of life. In the following section, we discuss social-contextual factors within the motivational climate, and how they can enhance or constrain decisions to be physically active and influence health-related quality of life. We conclude by identifying emerging research issues, implications for practice, and suggestions for future research directions.
