Participants responded twice to Siperstein’s Adjective Checklist and Block’s Children’s Attitudes Toward Integrated Physical Education-Revised (CAIPE-R) Questionnaire. Four forward stepwise regression analyses were conducted. It was found that the PSD treatment had a significant effect in all four analyses. Results also indicate that competitiveness was associated with attitude scores on the Inclusion subscale of the CAIPE-R (B = −0.85, t(139) = −2.25, p = .026, η² = 0.02).
