Abstract
The purpose of this study is to verify the effect of physical education classes applied with PST(psychological skill training) program on students" positive psychology. To that end, 342 first-year students from two middle schools located in Seoul were divided into group that applied PST program and group of control. To check the effectiveness of the PST program, the moderating effect was analyzed through pre-post measurement of positive emotion, resilience and internal motivation. As a result of the analysis, the positive emotion, resilience, and perceived competence(internal motivation) scores of group participating in the PST program increased to a significant level, while the students who participated in the general physical education class did not change significantly. Considering that there was no difference in the pre-measurement score between the two groups for each variable, it can be interpreted that the application of the PST training program in the physical education class had a significant effect on the positive psychology. Through this study, we have provided an opportunity to explore the possibility of expanding the scope of PST, which is being conducted mainly on specific subjects, into physical education classes.
