Detaljeret beskrivelse
The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between personal life meaning and purpose and physical activity maintenance in a group of previously sedentary adults starting new exercise programs.
Participants complete questionnaires at baseline, 4 weeks, and 12 weeks after starting an exercise program.
Participants are randomly assigned to complete questionnaires about daily meaning, mood, and activity for the first 4 weeks or to complete 8 random questionnaires about daily activities over the first 4 weeks.
It is hypothesized that personal life meaning and purpose will be related to greater exercise participation at 12 weeks.
