Our first guest is Julien Chanal from the University of Geneva.
During the episode, Matt and Julien discuss fitness and physical activity, which are specialties of Julien's work and research. Specifically, we talk about how kids's motivation to be active works and how childhood activity is an excellent predictor for how active adults are (and their respective motivation). We explore the strategies schools and parents can take to support fitness activity.
We also dig into another area of interest for Julien... Burnout, within the context of work. We also try and define well being within the context of SDT. We differentiate happiness from well being, as well.
Of course, we are referring to Richard Ryan and Edward Deci, the originators of the theory. And since this is a show about Self-Determination Theory, that is the foundational model we use to inform our conversation. You can learn more about Rich and Ed, as well as the theory, at the Center for Self-Determination Theory.
