The aim of this study was to analyse the relationship between parents' past experience as Physical Education (PE) students and the importance they give to PE within the school curriculum. Parents of 1834 teenagers from Spain and Portugal participated in the study (1834 fathers and 1834 mothers). An 11 item questionnaire was used for data collection. The measures studied were: socio-demographic characteristics, parent´s past experience as PE students, and importance that parents gave to PE in the school curriculum. The results suggest that parents' past experiences as PE student condition their evaluation of the importance that PE should have in the school curriculum. As the past experience as PE student deteriorated and as age increased, there was an increase in the probability that parents evaluate PE as deserving a less important status in their children's curriculum. These findings can contribute to understanding how the parents' past experiences as PE students seem to partially model the value judgements that they make later in life regarding the importance of the subject.
本研究旨在分析父母过去作为体育（PE）学生的经历与他们在学校课程中对体育的重视程度之间的关系。来自西班牙和葡萄牙的 1834 名青少年的家长参与了这项研究（1834 名父亲和 1834 名母亲）。使用了一份 11 项的问卷进行数据收集。研究的测量指标包括：社会人口特征、父母过去作为 PE 学生的经历以及父母在学校课程中对 PE 的重视程度。结果表明，父母过去作为 PE 学生的经历影响他们对体育在学校课程中重要性的评价。随着过去作为 PE 学生经历的恶化和年龄的增长，父母认为 PE 在孩子课程中应具有较低地位的可能性增加。这些发现有助于理解父母过去作为 PE 学生的经历如何似乎部分塑造了他们以后对该学科重要性的价值判断。
