Item type:Publication, Context matters: teaching styles and basic psychological needs predicting flourishing and perfectionism in university music students(Frontiers Media S.A., 2021-03-02)Professional musicians are expected to perform at a very high level of proficiency. Many times, this high standard is associated with perfectionism, which has been shown to prompt both adaptive and maladaptive motivational dynamics and outcomes among music students. The question about how perfectionism interplays with motivational dynamics in music students is still unanswered and research within this line is scarce, especially in Latin America. In the light of Self-Determination Theory (SDT), this cross-sectional study investigated the relationship between the perceptions of motivational context (teachers' motivating styles: autonomy supportive or controlling), basic psychological needs (satisfaction/frustration), perfectionism (adaptive/maladaptive), and flourishing in University music students from Lima, Peru (N = 149; mean age = 20.68, SD = 3.03; 71% men). We performed a path analysis testing a model in which motivational teaching styles predicted both, perfectionism and flourishing via need satisfaction and frustration. The model's fit indices were ideal [χ2 (7, N = 143) = 7.48, p = 0.300, CFI = 0.998, TLI = 0.992, RMSEA = 0.021, SRMR =0.040]. In this model, perceived autonomy supportive style predicted need satisfaction positively and need frustration negatively; perceived controlling teaching style did not predict need satisfaction nor frustration. In turn, need satisfaction positively predicted adaptive perfectionism (i.e., high standards) and flourishing; whereas, need frustration predicted maladaptive perfectionism (i.e., discrepancy). These results shed light on the relevance of perfectionism in the psychology of higher music education students. Lastly, we highlight the importance of autonomy support in fostering adaptive high standards and flourishing in music learning. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, The role of strength-based parenting, posttraumatic stress, and event exposure on posttraumatic growth in flood survivors(American Psychological Association, 2022-04-25)The present study examined the role of posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS), strength-based parenting (SBP), and event exposure on posttraumatic growth (PTG) in Peruvian flood survivors. METHOD: After contacting local authorities, 1,077 adult participants were surveyed 1 year after the flood. Correlation, moderation, and mediation analyses were conducted to determine relationships between variables. RESULTS: Flood survivors experienced both PTSS and PTG. Additionally, event exposure directly facilitated PTG. Further, SBP influenced PTG both directly and by its role in reducing PTSS. Finally, higher levels of SBP aided individuals in converting PTSS into PTG. CONCLUSIONS: Favorable psychological outcomes following floods are not uncommon even for those with high levels of stress or exposure. Individual- and community-level interventions should leverage facilitating factors such as SBP to promote growth outcomes such as PTG.

Item type:Publication, The type of motivation does matter for university preparation(Pontificia Universidade Catolica de Campinas, 2022-01-01)Using Self-Determination Theory, the relationship between motivation (autonomous and controlled), academic self-efficacy, test anxiety, life satisfaction and academic achievement was studied in a group of pre-university students from Lima-Peru. A total of 252 students of both sexes with ages between 16 and 30 years (Mage = 17.69) were assessed. Correlational analyses showed the expected relationships among the studied variables. The path analysis performed gave evidence of the fulfillment of the hypotheses proposed for this study since academic self-efficacy mediated the relationship between autonomous motivation and academic achievement and life satisfaction; also test anxiety mediated the relationship between controlled motivation and academic achievement and life satisfaction. The implications of these empirical findings are discussed in relation to pre-university education in Peru. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Teaching Around the Globe(Oxford University Press, 2023-07-18)Teaching is global, so the purpose of this chapter is to provide an international perspective on classroom instruction. In the first part, the authors summarize findings from two international investigations (conducted by others). The first is a video observational study involving eight nations reporting their typical teaching practices in terms of classroom management, social-emotional support, and quality of instruction. The second is a survey-based study involving 19 nations in which teachers self-reported their job satisfaction and teaching efficacy. In the second part, the authors invite educators from 19 different countries to participate in a virtual roundtable discussion to communicate what is special about teaching in their particular nation. Each educator answered this question: What can the rest of the world learn from what teachers in your nation do so well? The roundtable participants highlight their teachers’ work ethic, engagement in professional learning communities, commitment to inclusion and democratic education, and opportunities for both autonomy and collaboration. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Teachers' motivating style, students' basic psychological needs, academic reading motivation, and engagement(Taylor & Francis, 2025-01-01)Students display different amounts and types of motivation for academic reading. Drawing upon self-determination theory, we examined the relationship between perceived teachers' motivating style and students' basic psychological needs, regulatory styles, and engagement around academic reading. Participants were 235 Peruvian fourth-fifth graders who completed questionnaires regarding their experiences of motivation and their teachers' perceived motivating style during visits to the school library. Students' engagement was rated by their teachers. Perceived teachers' autonomy support had a positive direct relationship with intrinsic regulation. Perceived teacher control displayed a positive indirect relationship with external regulation, mediated by students' basic needs frustration, and a direct relationship to the same outcome. Teacher control also showed a negative direct relationship with teacher-rated behavioral and agentic engagement and intrinsic regulation. Results highlight the importance of teachers' motivating styles in students' motivational experiences.2 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Psychometric Evaluation of the Strength-Based Parenting Questionnaire and Comparison of Perceived Strength-Based Parenting in Collectivistic and Individualistic Cultures(Springer Science+Business Media, 2025-10-01)This study examined strength-based parenting scores rated by a large youth sample ( N = 2,449; M = 15.03 years ± 2.94; 55.7% female; 44.3% male) collected from 9 countries classified as collectivistic (Indonesia, Israel [Arab citizens], Kazakhstan, Macau, Peru, Turkey, and Uzbekistan) or individualistic (Australia and Germany). Psychometric evaluation of the Strength-Based Parenting Questionnaire (SBPQ) showed factorial validity, strong internal consistency, and strong test re-test reliability. Strict measurement invariance was found between the two cultural groupings and across the seven language versions of the SBPQ, providing confidence that the SBPQ is a tool that can be used in cross-cultural research. Youth from individualistic countries perceived parents to have higher knowledge of their strengths; however, Cohen's d of 0.13 indicated that the difference was very low. There was no significant difference on ratings of parents encouraging them to use their strengths. Overall, the findings suggest that youth perceptions about strength-based parenting may be more common, than different, across the two cultural categories. By establishing the psychometric robustness of the SBPQ in collectivistic and individualistic youth samples, this study has opened the door for increased cross-cultural research into the antecedents, moderators, and outcomes of strength-based parenting.3 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Fear of COVID-19, traumatic growth, and traumatic stress symptoms: the mediating role of basic psychological needs(Frontiers Media, 2025-01-23)Although COVID-19 brought many negative psychological consequences, many people also experienced psychological growth. The present study investigated why this happened and hypothesized that self-determination theory's (SDT's) basic psychological needs (BPNs) may play a role in this explanation. Based on SDT, this cross-sectional study hypothesized that both the satisfaction and frustration of BPNs mediated the associations between fear of COVID-19, post-traumatic growth (PTG), and post-traumatic stress (PTS) symptoms. A sample of 391 Peruvian adults (70.6% women; M age = 35.04, age range between 18 and 84) responded to several valid and reliable questionnaires: Fear of COVID-19 Scale (FCV.19S); Basic Psychological Needs Satisfaction and Frustration Scale (BPNSFS); Impact Event Scale-Revised (IES-R); Post-Traumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI). The results showed that need satisfaction mediated the negative association between fear of COVID-19 and PTG, and need frustration mediated the positive association between fear of COVID-19 and PTG. In addition, a direct effect was found from fear of COVID-19 toward PTS symptoms. The results showed the importance of considering SDT's BPNs in explaining PTG and PTS after experiencing fear of COVID-19.1 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Evaluating longitudinal, reciprocal, and cross-sectional effects of (de)motivating teaching styles on students' psychological and educational outcomes in physical education(Elsevier BV, 2026-06-01)Grounded in Self-Determination Theory and the circumplex model of teaching behaviors, this three-wave study (N = 637 secondary students) analyzed longitudinal, reciprocal, and cross-sectional relations among (de)motivating teaching styles, basic psychological needs (BPN), and student outcomes using a structural equation model. Perceived autonomy-supportive and structuring styles at Time 1 (T1) predicted higher BPN satisfaction at Time 2 (T2), which, in turn, related to more positive experiences and perceived learning in class and greater intention for physical activity beyond class at Time 3 (T3). Conversely, controlling and chaotic styles at T1 were linked to BPN frustration at T2 and poorer outcomes at T3. BPN satisfaction (frustration) at T2 also showed a longitudinal associations with higher (lower) perceptions of autonomy-supportive/structuring, and lower (higher) controlling/chaotic styles at T3. Findings highlight long-term, bidirectional dynamics with implications for teacher education. The findings indicate that teacher training programs should foster autonomy-supportive and structuring styles while reducing controlling and chaotic ones to promote adaptive motivational patterns and improve student outcomes. • Autonomy-supportive teaching at T1 predicted BPN satisfaction at T2, which enhanced PE experiences, learning, and PA intention at T3. • Controlling and chaotic teaching at T1 predicted BPN frustration at T2, which reduced PE experiences, learning, and PA intention at T3. • BPN satisfaction at T2 positively predicted later perceptions of autonomy-supportive and structuring styles. • BPN frustration at T2 predicted increased perceptions of controlling and chaotic teaching at T3. • Autonomy-supportive and structuring styles were cross-sectionally linked to positive PE outcomes, while controlling style was negatively linked to students' PE experiences. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Cognitive-individual and social-interpersonal protective factors: dual safeguards against dropout intentions in Peru(Taylor & Francis, 2025-01-01)University attrition is a multicausal phenomenon that calls for an examination of sociodemographic, institutional, academic and psychological factors. In Peru, regional disparities, the unregulated expansion of universities and high rates of dropout have raised concerns about the considerable loss of valuable human resources. This study adopts a quantitative approach to identify the role of social-interpersonal factors (social skills and social support), as mediated by cognitive-individual ones (goal efficacy and planning), in the development of dropout intentions among university students. The sample included 536 students from eight universities, both public and private, in three regions of Peru. Findings show that students with higher levels of social support and social skills are less likely to develop dropout intentions, particularly when these factors are mediated by goal efficacy and planning. Differences were observed based on sex and region. It is concluded that social-interpersonal factors are strong mitigators of dropout intentions, especially if mediated by cognitive-individual factors. Identifying these underlying psychological factors can help university leaders design multidimensional strategies for student retention. This study will contribute to support public policies and further interventions oriented to reduce the loss of highly educated individuals who could positively transform Peruvian society.1 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, An Autonomy-Supportive Teaching Intervention Benefits Students in a Low-SES School Setting(Taylor & Francis, 2025-01-01)We conducted the first autonomy-supportive teaching intervention in a low SES school setting. We hypothesized that the teacher-focused intervention would increase students' psychological need satisfaction and classroom engagement—just as it has been demonstrated to do in previous interventions conducted in more advantaged schools. We randomly assigned 28 Peruvian teachers who taught 14 different subjects (e.g., math) in grades 7–11 in a very low SES school district to participate or not in the autonomy-supportive teaching workshop (i.e., experimental vs. control condition). Their 672 students (332 females, 339 males) self-reported their perceived teacher support, need satisfaction (autonomy, competence, relatedness), and classroom engagement at the beginning, middle, and end of a semester. A structural equation modeling analysis showed that the hypothesized model fit the data well, and that experimental condition predicted students' T2 need satisfaction, T2 need satisfaction predicted students' T3 classroom engagement, and T2 need satisfaction mediated the effect that experimental condition had on T3 classroom engagement. These findings show that an autonomy-supportive teaching intervention can work in a low-SES setting and not just in socioeconomically advantaged schools.1
