- W255587622 abstract "Abstract : Lack of exercise is a chronic problem in the United States today. Many health problems such as obesity, heart disease, diabetes, osteoporosis and some forms of cancer have been directly related to sedentary lifestyles. Mental health has also been positively correlated with exercise. However, women are more likely than men to be sedentary, and older women are among the least active group. Therefore, research that examines the variables involved in why people choose to exercise are important since it may help the medical community learn the best ways to motivate people to adopt a habit of exercising. There are many components of behavior that have an impact on why people decide to behave in a certain way. By breaking down these components and examining them independently, specific aspects of behavior may stand out as more important in influencing action with regard to exercise. Behavioral psychologists have been studying these concepts for years and many theories have emerged that attempt to explain human behavior. Icek Ajzen's theory of planned behavior and Albert Bandura's self-efficacy theory are two of the leading theories that affempt to explain behavior. This study comp&ed two groups: one group of women who had volunteered for an exercise study (volunteers), and another group who were eligible for the same study but who chose no to participate (non-volunteers). Self-efficacy and the theory of planned behavior were examined to see if their constructs were determinants for exercise participation in a structured program for this group of older women. The study showed that self-efficacy was statistically significant for explaining a difference between the groups while the constructs of the theory of planned behavior were not significant, although small sample size (n=39) limited the study. Findings support the use of self-efficacy theory to increase exercise participation." @default.
