Este estudio explora el papel dual de la determinación (grit), tanto física como académica, en la influencia sobre el compromiso académico de los estudiantes atletas de deportes de combate. Aunque investigaciones previas han enfatizado la determinación en los ámbitos académico o deportivo por separado, pocos estudios han examinado cómo interactúan estas dos dimensiones para afectar los resultados educativos. El objetivo principal de este estudio fue examinar el papel predictivo de la determinación en educación física, específicamente la determinación física y académica, sobre el compromiso académico. Se empleó un diseño transversal con la participación de 496 estudiantes atletas de deportes de combate (M = 19.45; DE = 1.89) de diversas universidades y colegios estatales de Filipinas. Los participantes fueron seleccionados mediante muestreo aleatorio y completaron instrumentos validados: la Escala de Determinación en Educación Física (PE-GRIT), que incluye subescalas de determinación física y académica, y la Escala de Compromiso Académico para Estudiantes de Utrecht (UWES-9), que mide vigor, dedicación y absorción. Los datos fueron analizados mediante correlaciones bivariadas y técnicas de regresión múltiple. Los resultados mostraron que tanto la determinación física (β = 0.328, p < .001) como la determinación académica (β = 0.242, p < .001) fueron predictores significativos del compromiso académico. Estos hallazgos sugieren que la determinación desarrollada a través de la práctica de deportes de combate trasciende el ámbito físico e influye positivamente en las conductas académicas de los estudiantes. Por lo tanto, la determinación en educación física desempeña un papel crucial en la mejora del compromiso académico al fomentar la disciplina, la perseverancia y la resiliencia. El entrenamiento en deportes de combate puede servir como una intervención valiosa que apoye tanto el desarrollo físico como el éxito académico.
