Item Actividad física en la autoestima de estudiantes de bachillerato general unificado(Universidad Técnica de Ambato-Facultad de Ciencias Humanas y de la educación -Carrera de Pedagogía de la Actividad Física y Deporte, 2025-07-04) Andachi Rivera Erick Alejandro; Mocha Bonilla Julio Alfonso; Universidad Técnica de Ambato-Facultad de Ciencias Humanas y de la educación -Carrera de Pedagogía de la Actividad Física y DeporteThe study entitled “Physical activity in the self-esteem of General Unified Baccalaureate students” had as its primary objective to determine the impact of physical activity on the self-esteem levels of first-year BGU students at the “Sagrada Familia” Educational Unit in the canton of Ambato. To this end, a pre-experimental study with a quantitative approach was conducted, in which the Rosenberg Test was administered in a PRE and POST period to a six-month intervention program based on physical activity. The sample consisted of 30 students, selected through nonprobabilistic convenience sampling. The methodology considered empirical and statistical techniques, implementing a descriptive and inferential analysis using SPSS software. During the pretest stage, it was identified that 56.7% of the students had low or medium levels of self-esteem. After the intervention, a significant change was evident: 93.3% achieved high levels of self-esteem, and none remained at the low level. The results validated the alternative hypothesis, confirming that regular physical activity has a positive impact on adolescents' self-esteem. The increase in test scores and the shift from low to high levels reiterate the favorable impact of the intervention. In conclusion, physical activity is established as a comprehensive educational tool that not only benefits physical development but also strengthens students' emotional and social well-being.
