La formación de grupos en Educación Física. Una revisión de la literatura / Picking teams in Physical Education. A literature review

La formación de grupos en Educación Física parece perpetuarse como un proceso desatendido, reproducido automáticamente e irreflexivo. Así al menos se desprende de la escasísima literatura en español al respecto. Por ello, los objetivos de este artículo pasan por explicitar el estado de la cuestión, problematizando la formación de grupos y aflorando el currículo oculto que este proceder contiene. Para ello, se ha llevado a cabo una revisión de la literatura en las bases de datos Dialnet y Web of Science y completada posteriormente de forma manual. Los términos de búsqueda han sido ‘formación de grupos’ o ‘agrupamientos’ y ‘Educación Física’, y en inglés los vocablos ‘the formation of groups’ o ‘picking teams’ y ‘Physical Education’. Los resultados de la misma son escasos pues arrojan 4 estudios encontrados en las bases de datos, a los que manualmente se les han añadido otros 26, lo que confirma la desatención académica de este proceder. Además, los documentos constatan efectos negativos y recurrentes sobre todo en el alumnado menos hábil y en muchas de las alumnas. Sin embargo, se explicitan algunas propuestas que, entre otras cosas, relativizan la estigmatización y se acercan a los postulados de la justicia social. (AU)

Picking teams in Physical Education seems to perpetuate itself as a neglected, automatically reproduced, and thoughtless process. So at least it is clear from the very scarce literature in Spanish on the matter. Therefore, the aims of this article are to put the state of the art on the table, problematizing picking teams and surfacing the hidden curriculum that this procedure contains. For this, a review of the literature has been carried out in Dialnet and Web of Science databases and completed manually. The search terms have been ‘formación de grupos’ or ‘agrupamientos’ and ‘Educación Física’ in Spanish, and in English the words ‘the formation of groups’ or ‘picking teams’ and ‘Physical Education’. The few results of the search shows only 4 studies, included in the present review, and 26 studies have been manually added, confirm the academic neglect of this procedure. In addition, the documents confirm negative and recurring effects, especially in the less skilled students and in many of the female students. However, some proposals are made explicit that, among other things, relativize stigmatization and come closer to the postulates of social justice. (AU)

(Re)construcción de identidades sociales en entornos penitenciarios: Las presas deportistas / (Re)construction of social identities in penitentiary environments: imprisoned sportswomen / (Re) construção de identidades sociais em contextos penitenciários: barragens esportivas

El objetivo de este artículo fue explorar el significado que las diferentes prácticas físicas realizadas en prisión adquirían para las mujeres con respecto a las relaciones interpersonales, y asociarlo con la fase de construcción de su nueva identidad desarrollada durante el encarcelamiento. A partir de una investigación cualitativa donde se entrevistó a 16 mujeres de entre 23 y 62 años que participaron en actividades físico-deportivas dentro del centro penitenciario, los resultados señalaron que dichas actividades constituyeron una vía de resocialización para las mujeres encarceladas. Este aumento de relaciones interpersonales influyó en su (re)categorización, reforzando considerablemente su pertenencia a un nuevo grupo que buscaba a través de las prácticas físicas alejarse de las adicciones propias del medio carcelario y construir una nueva identidad positiva que generase un aumento en su bienestar psico-sociológico

The aim of this article was to explore how diffent physical activities assisted in the development of interpersonal relationships and the self-construction of new identities for a group of women prisoners during their period of incarceration. Using qualitative research, sixteen women between the ages of 23 and 62 were interviewed, all of whom had participated in sport and physical activities within the prison. It was found that those activities constituted a new way of socialising for imprisoned women. Such increase of interpersonal relationship influenced participants' (re)categorization, reinforcing considerably their belongness into a new group who attempted, through physical practices, to move away from addictions associated with the prison environment and build up a new positive identity that would improve their psycho-social well-being

Esse aumento nas relações interpessoais in.uenciou em sua (re)categorização, reforçando consideravelmente sua pertença a um novo grupo que buscou através de práticas físicas afastarem-se dos vícios do meio prisional e construir uma nova identidade positiva que gera um aumento no bem-estar psico-sociológico

Physical activity practiced by incarcerated women: A systematic review.

Our aim doing this systematic review was to identify and analyze studies about women prison inmates' engagement in sport and physical activities (SPAs). The review was conducted in three areas - SPAs, prison and women - and based on information obtained from different databases. Through a selection process, we singled out 33 empirical and review studies, the quality of which was analyzed. From our analysis, we learn that the benefits women prison inmates derive from SPAs are considerable, although they also reveal that obstacles exist to be overcome if their levels of participation are to rise.
