|
|
Purpose: The study was undertaken to investigate effects of susceptibility to musculoskeletal disorder, social support, and environmental aids on exercise adherence intention and to identify factors contributing to exercise adherence intention among university students.
Methods: The study was a descriptive study with 277 students from 3 universities. Data were collected from March 5 to May 30, 2014 using a structured self-report questionnaire. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients, and Hierarchical multiple regression.
Results: The explanatory power of the predictive model involving the demographic factors, susceptibility to musculoskeletal disorder, social support, and environmental aids was 29%, and the subjects’ gender, health concern, experience of musculoskeletal injury, regular exercise, and social support were identified as main factors having influence.
Conclusion: The results of this study will be helpful in understanding the importance of environmental factors for increasing physical activities and will be used as basic data for development of exercise programs to increase exercise adherence intention for their continuous exercise.
