Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the mediating effect of self-esteem on the relationship between perceived physical literacy and physical activity among college students in Surigao del Sur, employing a descriptive correlational approach. Adapted questionnaires were used to collect data. Mean, Standard deviation, Pearson r, and Mediation Analysis using the Sobel Test were the statistical tools used. The results showed that respondents' physical literacy is high. Additionally, engagement in physical activity is moderate, while self-esteem is high. Furthermore, physical literacy has a strong, significant direct effect on both physical activity and self-esteem, but self-esteem does not mediate this relationship.
