Abstract
Our study is based on a quantitative approach in order to gather relevant data. We chose to proceed by means of a pre-established questionnaire with students of the Higher Institute of Sports and Physical Education in Gafsa. We tried to highlight the social representations of the body through the bodily experience, the link of the body to the environment, the social interactions and the notional and normative acquisitions according to gender and the level of study.
