Demographic Factors correlating to regular exercise - ANSWER Age
Education
Ethnicity
Gender
Socioeconomic status
How to use flexibility to create adherence to exercise - ANSWER Allow individuals to self-
select frequency and time may positively influence adherence
How to use intensity to create adherence to exercise - ANSWER Adjusting intensity using
previous exss experience. Those adopting exss for the first time may be better suited to, and
self-select, mod. intensity programs (45-55% HRR)
How to use type to create adherence to exercise - ANSWER Greater adherence proves to
come from home-based programs that include the provision of remotely delivered support
Social Cognitive Theory (SCT) - ANSWER Based on the principle of reciprocal determinism
or individual (emotion, personality, cognition, biology), behavior (past and current
achievement), and environment (physical, social, and cultural) all interact to influence
behavior.
Posits that individuals learn from external reinforcements and punishments, by observing
others, and through cognitive processes.
Self-efficacy - ANSWER Central to SCT.
1
, Refers to one's beliefs in his or her own capability to successfully complete a course of action
such as exercise.
One of the most consistently found correlates of PA in adults and youth.
Two types of Self-efficacy - ANSWER Task self-efficacy
Barriers self-efficacy
Task self-efficacy - ANSWER Refers to an individual's belief that he or she can actually do
the behavior in question.
Barriers self-efficacy - ANSWER Refers to whether an individual believes he or she can
regularly exercise in the face of common barriers such as lack of time and poor weather.
Outcome expectations and expectancy - ANSWER Key concepts of SCT.
Anticipatory results of a behavior and the value placed on these results. If specific outcomes
are seen as likely to occur and are valued, then behavior change is more likely to occur.
Self-regulation/Self-control - ANSWER Important to SCT.
A person's ability to set goals, monitor progress toward those goals, problem solve when
faced with barriers, and engage in self-reward.
Transtheoretical Model - ANSWER Stems from the intuitive appeal that individuals are at
different stages of readiness to make behavioral changes and thus require tailored
interventions.
