Body Percussion: Social Competence Between Equals Using the Method BAPNE in Secondary Education (Design Research)

摘要

This study will aim to establish interest in socio-emotional aspects affecting adolescent students in secondary education, and increase our knowledge of whether social competence in students of 2nd year of secondary can be improved through rhythm and body percussion with the BAPNE method. In order to do this we will carry out a 12-week study, using quantitative methodology of a basic quasi-experimental design with a control group and an experimental group. Measurements will be done before (pre-test) and after (post-test) the treatment, in two groups of second year students of secondary education, aged between 13 and 15, from schools in the city of Alicante, Spain (San Juan Playa Secondary School and Cabo de la Huerta Secondary School). The evaluation tool will be a sociometric questionnaire of peer nominations elaborated by Group GREI and called SOCIOMET. We hope to achieve results which will allow us to demonstrate that, after body percussion activities through BAPNE method, many students in the experimental group strengthen and improve the network of friendly relations between them.
