Resumen

La elección de Educación Física optativa podría estar condicionada por las metas personales o la motivación del alumnado o por las conductas docentes percibidas. Los objetivos del trabajo han sido analizar las diferencias entre el alumnado que elige (o no) Educación Física y determinar en qué medida las orientaciones de meta, las regulaciones motivacionales y las conductas docentes percibidas predicen esa decisión. Participaron 756 adolescentes de 14 centros públicos de la Comunidad Valenciana que cursaban 2.º de Bachillerato (Medad = 17.06 años, DT = 0.75), de los cuales 422 eran chicas (55.8%). Aquellos que sí eligieron Educación Física presentaban un perfil diferenciado, es decir, puntuaban más alto en todas las metas de aproximación (y evitación), en regulación intrínseca, identificada e introyectada y más bajo en desmotivación. También mostraban un marcado perfil en los estilos docentes percibidos en la asignatura en el pasado (apoyo a la autonomía y estructurado). Finalmente, el factor que mejor predijo esta elección fue la conducta participativa percibida (estilo docente de apoyo a la autonomía), seguido de la orientación de la meta de aproximación-tarea, las conductas dominadoras (en negativo) y la regulación intrínseca.
