| Sumario: | The purpose of our study was the analysis of motivational differences involved in the practice of cooperative and especially non-competitive outdoor activities organized by the Salamanca´s City Hall. The sample were configurated by 176 school boys and girls, aged 9 to 15 (M = 12; SD = 1.5), from 21 different local schools who completed a questionnaire designed ad hoc. For 90% of participants the main reasons argued for engaging in these activities were “to get to know new sports” and “to do something different from what is normally being offered”; 79% valued the choice of this programme in terms of “the importance of being in contact with nature”; and 68% made positive comments on the fact that “there was no competition involved”. All in all, 99% were satisfied both with instructors and activities. Therefore, participants perceived the programme as a great success and as a very motivating initiative; the most highlighted features were its novelty, its non-competitive and cooperative nature and the fact that activities took place in a natural environment. |
