AbstractThe aim of this study was to examine teacher behaviors in the local secondary school physical education setting. The subjects in this study were forty local pre-service and in-service physical education teachers. An observation instrument was employed to collect data from teachers during natural and usual setting physical education lessons. Results showed that physical educators tended to provide high frequencies of instructions and disproportionately low rates of praise and corrective to positive feedback regardless of their gender and teaching experience.
