Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between the perceived value of outdoor activities and exercise persistence among elderly Chinese individuals. Specifically, the study aims to explore whether motivation for active social adaptation mediates this relationship. Three hundred twenty-five subjects were randomly chosen and invited to complete 3 questionnaires about the perceived value of outdoor activity, the motivation for active social adaptation, and the adherence to physical exercise. The results showed that older people's perception of the value of outdoor activity (function, landscape, and cost) has a statistically significant effect on their adherence to exercise. The mediating role of motivation for active social adaptation was also statistically significant, and the mediating role of active environmental adaptation motivation affected the perceived functional value, perceived landscape value of outdoor activities on adherence to exercise. Hence, it is concluded that older Chinese adults' perception of the value of outdoor activities promotes their adherence to exercise and reinforces it based on active social adaptation motivation.

老年人的价值感对坚持户外锻炼的影响：积极适应社会的动机的中介作用》。

本研究旨在探讨中国老年人对户外活动的感知价值与运动坚持之间的关系。具体而言，本研究旨在探讨积极适应社会的动机是否会对这一关系起到中介作用。研究随机选取了 325 名受试者，邀请他们完成 3 份关于户外活动感知价值、主动适应社会的动机和体育锻炼坚持性的问卷。结果表明，老年人对户外活动价值的认知（功能、景观和成本）对其坚持锻炼有显著的统计学影响。主动社会适应动机的中介作用也有统计学意义，主动环境适应动机的中介作用影响了户外活动的感知功能价值、感知景观价值对坚持锻炼的影响。因此，可以得出结论，中国老年人对户外活动价值的感知会促进其坚持锻炼，并在主动社会适应动机的基础上强化其坚持锻炼。
