Abstract

The teacher's interpersonal style has a significant role in the attitude and motivation of students, and although the current educational system suggests the use of more student-centered styles, in Physical Education (PE), traditional styles are still mainly used. The purpose was to analyze the relationship between teacher-controlling interpersonal style and student motivation in the context of PE classes. A search was carried out in WOS, Ebsco, Scopus and Cochrane taking into consideration the different inclusion criteria specified in the document. Forty-two publications were identified, from which six were selected that met the established eligibility criteria. It was concluded that the adoption by teachers of a controlling interpersonal style is closely related to less self-determined forms of motivation, generating a negative classroom environment conditioned by the lack of student autonomy, and therefore the adoption of more innovative and active methodologies centered on the students is suggested.
