Classroom session: Alfac child questionnaire
Description
Purpose & ALFAC Child questionnaire items
The purpose of the ALFAC questionnaire is to assess various aspects of children’s aquatic skills and recreation through self-report.
To this end, the ALFAC questionnaire consists of 6 different parts, each of which contains several items.
PART 1 – Motivation in the context of swimming
PART 2 – Confidence in a swimming pool
PART 3 – Perceived (isolated) aquatic skills
PART 4 – Enjoyment in the context of swimming, including the social aspect
PART 5 – Engagement in water-based sports and activities in a swimming pool and an open water context
PART 6 – Risk perception in a swimming pool and an open water context
See appendix for the “ALFAC child questionnaire – booklet version”; “ALFAC child questionnaire – scoring grid version” and the PDF presentation of the ALFAC child questionnaire. It is advised to use the booklet version for the youngest ones (aged 6 to 8 years old) and to use the scoring grid version for the oldest ones (aged 8 to 12 years old). The (intellectual) level of the children can also determine the choice of the version which will be used.
Target population
The ALFAC Child questionnaire is designed for all children aged 6-12 years.
Preparation
Standardized equipment
The standardized equipment to be used for the administration of the ALFAC child questionnaire in a classroom setting is listed in the table below.
|
Hard copies of the ALFAC child questionnaire |
|
Pencils or pens (i.e., one writing pencil per child) |
|
Smartboard / digital whiteboard and/or beamer |
Classroom requirements and setup
Each child has a hard copy of the ALFAC child questionnaire on his or her desk. For the oldest children (aged 8 to 12 years), it is advised to use the “ALFAC child questionnaire – scoring grid version” ; for the youngest children (aged 6 to 8 years) it is advised to use “ALFAC child questionnaire – booklet version”. The ALFAC assessor stands at the front of the classroom to guide the administration of the questionnaire. The classroom needs to be equipped with a smartboard/digital whiteboard or beamer in order to display and present the questions, together with the different answer option(s) for each item (e.g. using the PDF reading mode).
Staffing
A specially trained ALFAC assessor administers the AFLAC child questionnaire with the support of the class teacher (or another member of the school staff). The ALFAC assessor is responsible for reading out loud the different items of the questionnaire and providing explanations and/or clarifications as necessary (see below), while standing in front of the classroom. The teacher (or another member of the school staff) walks around in the classroom, keeping an eye on the children to ensure they complete the questionnaire correctly.
Administration of the ALFAC Child questionnaire
Step 1 – Preparation for the ALFAC assessor
- Follow the ALFAC training in order to become a trained ALFAC assessor
- In the classroom, you present the ALFAC child questionnaire on the smartboard or display
- Make sure to possess a hard copy of this manual used as guideline during the classroom session
- Conduct a short briefing with the teacher in order to discuss how the administration of the questionnaire will be managed alongside the teacher’s responsibilities
Step 2 – Introduction
At the beginning of the session, the children are given a brief verbal explanation of the ALFAC project and the associated ALFAC child questionnaire, including what will be assessed and how the session will be conducted. In the following section (i.e., “Step by step instructions for the ALFAC child questionnaire”), a more specific script for this introduction can be found in view . Only then does the teacher give the questionnaires to the children.

Page |
Let the children turn their page (and also turn the page of your assessor’s manual at the same time) |
Step by step instructions of the AFLAC Child questionnaire
The next section provides the step-by-step instructions for administering the full ALFAC child questionnaire in a classroom setting, being supported by the pictograms mentioned above.
A page in the step-by-step instructions in this manual corresponds to the same page in the paper copy of questionnaire given to the children. Each time the children have to turn their page of the questionnaire, the AFLAC assessor turns the page of this manual at the same time (as a visual indication to move on to the next phase). If you are using the short form questionnaire, follow the same procedure by showing the children the page and the question to complete.
Finally, it should be noted that one or more breaks can be flexibly inserted by mutual agreement between the ALFAC assessor and the teacher in order to maintain the attention of the children at all while they are completing the ALFAC child questionnaire.

"We are still in the 6th part of the questionnaire: RISK PERCEPTION. In a moment you will be shown a poster on which some specific situations or activities in an "OPEN WATER" context are numbered from 1 to 10. You are asked to circle the colored smiley that best describes you in assessing each of these numbered situations or activities. Please wait to circle a smiley on each row until I have clearly shown you which situation or activity on the "OPEN WATER" poster to assess. Together we will go down number by number to indicate a smiley each time." |
