Abstract

This article investigates the influence that physical literacy has on the quality of life. The need to allude to this subject is given by the insufficiencies observed in the teaching-learning process of Physical Education, since it is not achieved that students maintain the interest to continue doing physical exercises, once the subject is finished. The objective of this work is to evaluate the correlation between physical literacy and quality of life. The methodology applied is quantitative. During the study, the survey was used as an empirical method and the Rho Spearman as a statistical correlation test for ordinal variables. As a result, it was found that there is a positive association between both variables.
