Advancing the study of levels of best practice pre-service teacher education students from Spain: Associations with both positive and negative achievement-related experiences

The study of optimal best practice, coinciding with a person’s ‘motivational mindset’, is an interesting research inquiry for development. Optimal best practice, in brief, relates to the maximization of a person’s state of functioning (e.g., cognitive functioning). Moreover, the nature of optimal be...

description The study of optimal best practice, coinciding with a person’s ‘motivational mindset’, is an interesting research inquiry for development. Optimal best practice, in brief, relates to the maximization of a person’s state of functioning (e.g., cognitive functioning). Moreover, the nature of optimal best practice is positive and motivational, helping individuals to flourish in different courses of action (e.g., academic performance at school). Several research undertakings, non-experimental in design, have provided clear and consistent evidence to substantiate the existing viewpoints and perspectives of optimal best practice. Our proposed investigation, which involved physical education pre-service teacher students from Spain (N = 681), explored one notable focus of inquiry–namely, the formation of optimal best practice and its predictive and explanatory account on future adaptive outcomes. As such, using Likert-scale measures and path analysis techniques, we were able to identify two associative patterns: achievement of optimal best practice is positively accounted for by academic self-concept, optimism, and current best practice and, in contrast, negatively accounted for by pessimism; and that optimal best practice could act as a determinant of academic engagement for effective learning. Such associations are significant, providing relevant information for different teaching and research purposes.
