- W1738156619 abstract "This research has investigated exercise adherence from the perspective of CognitiveEvaluation Theory (CET: Deci & Ryan, 1985a). In particular, the motivationalconsequences of internally controlling and internally informational modes of behaviouralregulation was explored with respect to the kinds of exercise goals that individuals adopt. Itwas proposed that goals will influence intrinsic motivation for exercise to the extent thatthey are controlling or informational in nature. The first part of the thesis describesconceptual and operational issues and the development and validation of measures ofperceived locus of causality (the Locus of Causality for Exercise Scale: LCE) andparticipation motives (the Exercise Motivations Inventory: EMI). In addition, thepsychometric -integrity of the Intrinsic Motivation Inventory (IMI: McAuley et al., 1989,1991) was examined. Results suggested that the LCE and the EMI possessed reasonablygood factorial and construct validity. However, questions were raised about the theoreticalunderpinnings and item content of the IMI. The second part of the research involved anintervention in which subjects were trained to set effective, personally-controllable goals for exercise. Results showed that goal-setting training was not superior to an attentioncontrolprocedure, with both treatments leading to a significant increase in exercise levels.However, large individual differences were noted in the effects of both treatments. Thesewere explained in terms of Causality Orientations Theory (Deci & Ryan, 1985a), whichproposes that people differ in the extent to which they seek to be autonomous or controlledin the regulation of their behaviour. Follow-up analyses supported this interpretation. Theresults of the research programme suggest that the internally controlling/internally informational distinction is important in the exercise context, but that CET, and the morewide-ranging Self-Determination Theory of which it is a part, suffer from a degree ofconceptual confusion and operational difficulties which need to be addressed if progress isto be made in understanding and explaining exercise behaviour." @default.
