The sample consisted of 80 high school students, 47.5% femaleand 52.5% male, aged between 14 and 16 years (M = 14.97; SD = 0.43), from twodifferent schools. Two teachers participated, one at the intervention school (n = 42)and one at the control school (n = 40). The methodology was a quasi-experimentaldesign with pretest and posttest evaluation. Over the course of four consecutivelearning units (24 sessions, 3 months), the teacher at the intervention schoolimplemented an AS program, whereas the teacher at the control school employed amixed method. The Perceived Locus of Causality Scale in Physical Education-2 wasused to assess students’ motivation levels. The results showed that the interventionschool exhibited significantly higher levels of intrinsic motivation regulation (pre:2.47 ± 0.18, post: 3.85 ± 0.18, p < .001), integrated regulation (pre: 2.26 ± 0.21, post:3.36 ± 0.20, p < .001), and identified regulation (pre: 2.47 ± 0.20, post: 4.00 ± 0.20,p < .001). Likewise, levels of amotivation were significantly lower in the interventionschool (pre: 1.67 ± 0.17, post: 0.59 ± 0.16, p < .001) compared to the control school.The students therefore experienced significantly higher motivation in physicaleducation classes following the implementation of the AS.
