The study aimed to map the scientific evidence regarding physical education teachers’ concerns linked to Fuller and Bown’s theory by a systematic review. The review study was based on the following guiding question: What is the evidence in the scientific literature on physical education teachers’ concerns? The search in the scientific bases was carried out between March 2019 and May 2024. The included studies publication years ranged from 1983 to 2024, wherein the studies have used predominantly a quantitative approach, applying the Teacher’s Concern Questionnaire. The highest physical education teachers’ concern was related to the Impact dimension.
