ABSTRACT

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to investigate the structural relationships between physical education environment to intrinsic motivation, instruction satisfaction, and teaching commitment of physical disability school teachers. [Method] The questionnaires were conducted only on the special education teachers who have direct experience of physical education classes or who are currently teaching among the special education teachers who are working in 19 schools of the national physical disability schools. The research instruments for the physical education environment (24 items), teaching commitment (12 items), intrinsic motivation (15 items), and instructional satisfaction (15 items) achieved validity and reliability through various stages. The confirmatory factor analysis was applied to 356 teachers (82.79%) of the collected questionnaires. [Results] The results of the study were that the perception of the physical education environment of the physical disabilities school teachers did not show significant explanatory power about the teaching satisfaction. However, when the physical education environment mediated intrinsic motivation and teaching commitment, teaching statistical significance was shown in the explanatory power of the path to the physical education environment. [Conclusion] This study suggests that the positive perception of the physical education environment of the physical disability school is a key factor for ensuring the efficiency of the teaching activity support of the physical disability school teachers.
