AB Hellisons Teaching Personal and Social Responsibility (TPSR) model was developed in the United States but has been applied in many different countries. However, its application in East Asian cultural contexts has not been sufficiently examined. The current study describes and interprets the cultural translation of this value-based instructional model in the physical education program of a South Korean middle school. A multiple case study design was used to examine the relevance and impact of TPSR through the experiences and perceptions of six purposefully selected students who had been identified as at risk of school failure. Multiple data sources indicate that a 20-lesson TPSR unit was well-received by the students and contributed to numerous positive behavior changes. The core goals and life skills associated with TPSR appeared relevant and acceptable to case study participants, however, the concept of self-direction emerged as more challenging for them to understand and enact. This may relate to differences in cultural schemas and educational norms. Such issues, as well as implications for research and practice, are discussed. The current study expands the TPSR literature by being one of the first to examine and make a case for the implementation of TPSR in an East Asian country
