ABSTRACT:
Determines the attitudes of parents toward physical education, investigating whether differences exist between male and female parents as well as across grade levels. Parents (n=505) of elementary school, junior high school, and senior high school students in the U.S. Midwest respond to a questionnaire. Finds that parents overall are favourably disposed toward physical education. Over 85% of the parents feel that physical education should be a required subject, and over 75% feel that it warrants credit. Parents overwhelmingly favour fitness, skills, and social components of the curriculum over cognitive and affective areas.
