Perceived Physical Education Teachers' Emotional Support and its direct interrelation to Learners' Academic Resilience

Academic resiliency is a learner's ability to overcome scholastic setbacks. Additionally, it was discovered that instructors' emotional support can boost academic resilience. However, these studies are predominantly vast in the elementary and secondary level, and are not connected to Physical Education in the Higher Education Context. This study has utilized two distinct questionnaires: Teacher's Emotional Support Scale (TESS) and Academic Resiliency Scale (ARS-30). After performing Multiple Regression, it was observed that Teacher's Emotional Support predicts Academic Resiliency, suggesting that teacher's emotional support has a direct and significant influence to academic resiliency. Furthermore, it was discovered that Teacher's Sensitivity and Regard to Adolescent Perspective has a direct influence to learners' academic resilience, except positive climate. Physical education teachers may be able to help learners who are struggling academically by providing them with emotional support. The results emphasized the necessity of college learners' access to emotional support from teachers in building resilience. Finally, the results were examined, with an emphasis on how the development of learners' personal and contextual resources can have a positive effect on their well-being.
