The objective of this study was to determine the predictable capacity of the ability incremental belief in sport by parents on the perceived importance of the physical activity of its children. Also, the Parents' Perception of Physical Activity Importance and their Children's Ability Questionnaire (PPAICAQ) was validated in Spanish. In study 1, the psychometric properties of PPAICAQ were analyzed and administered to 205-parents-sample, who aged from 25 to 56, and the parents' perception about the physical activity of their children was measured. The study 2, besides that, the perception of the parents about the ability incremental belief in sport was measured from the administration of Conception of the Nature of Athletics Ability Questionnaire-2 to a 337-parents-sample, aged from 25 to 55. The results indicated the scale was valid and reliable for use in Spanish. The ability incremental belief in sports predicted positive and significantly the importance and perceived capacity of the children by their parents. We conclude that the ability incremental belief of parents may be a key for enhancing the promotion of physical activity health habits in the families.
