Abstract

Kajian ini bertujuan untuk mengenal pasti sikap aktiviti fizikal terhadap amalan aktiviti fizikal pelajar Institut Pendidikan Guru Malaysia (IPGM). Seramai 408 pelajar Program Ijazah Sarjana Perguruan (PISMP) di empat buah IPGM Zon Sabah terlibat dalam kajian ini. Guru pelatih berada di tahun pertama hingga tahun empat dan sedang mengikuti pengajian secara sepenuh masa. Kajian ini menggunakan kaedah penyelidikan berbentuk kuantitatif bukan eksperimen yang menggunakan soal selidik sebagai instrumen kajian. Data yang diperoleh berdasarkan soal selidik Sikap Aktiviti Fizikal dan Soal Selidik Aktiviti Fizikal Antarabangsa (IPAQ). Data mentah telah dianalisis menggunakan analisis statistik deskriptif dan inferens seperti min, peratusan sisihan piawai, korelasi Pearson dan regresi pelbagai. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan sikap aktiviti fizikal pada tahap sederhana dan amalan aktiviti fizikal pelajar pada tahap baik. Dapatan kajian juga menunjukkan terdapatnya hubungan (r = .133, p <.05) dan pengaruh sikap terhadap amalan aktiviti fizikal [F(2,405) = 8.162, p < .05] dalam kalangan pelajar IPGM. Variabel ini memberi implikasi terhadap teori-teori kajian dan praktikal secara menyeluruh.

This study aimed to identify the relationship between attitudes towards physical activity and physical activity practices among students of the Institute of Teacher Education Malaysia (IPGM). A total of 408 students from the Bachelor of Teaching programme (PISMP) at four IPGM campuses in the Sabah Zone participated in the study. The trainee teachers were in their first to fourth years of study and were pursuing their studies on a full-time basis. This study employed a quantitative, non-experimental research method using questionnaires as the research instrument. The data were obtained using the Physical Activity Attitude Questionnaire and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). The raw data were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistical analyses, including mean, percentage, standard deviation, Pearson correlation, and multiple regression. The findings showed that attitudes towards physical activity were at a moderate level, while students’ physical activity practices were at a good level. The findings also showed a significant relationship between attitudes and physical activity practices (r = .133, p < .05), as well as a significant influence of attitudes on physical activity practices [F(2,405) = 8.162, p < .05] among IPGM students. These variables have implications for the theoretical and practical aspects of the study as a whole.
