This paper aims to analyse the production of Physical Education (PE) teachers in Spain and Brazil in view of the papers published in journals listed in the Web of Science (WoS) database. The methodology consists in a comparative and co-relational study of document analysis. The participants of this study are teachers with published papers listed in the WoS database. The sample is made up of 373 teachers; 108 of them were PE teachers from Brazil and the remaining 265 were PE teachers from Spain. The results indicate that Spanish PE teachers had an h index of 2.65 and 7.49 papers per researcher. By contrast, Brazilian teachers had an h index of 6.05 and an average of 30.91 papers per researcher. The correlations between the number of papers per researcher and their H index are positive r=.91 in the case of Spain, and r=.86 in the case of Brazil. The most popular journals of publication for both Brazilian and Spanish teachers are Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise and Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research.Downloads
