Abstract
Previous studies have indicated the positive impact of physical activity on positive affect in adolescents. However, the psychological mechanism is still under-explored. The current study aims to investigate the mediating role of psychological resilience and regulatory emotional self-efficacy on the relationship between physical activity and positive affect. This cross-sectional study recruited 580 adolescents (280 females, 12 to 16 years old). All participants completed the measures of the Physical Activity Questionnaire for Adolescents (PAQ-A), the Positive and Negative Affect Scale (PANAS), the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, and the Regulatory Emotional Self-Efficacy Questionnaire. Results showed that the association between physical activity and positive affect was significant in adolescents. Psychological resilience played a mediating role between physical activity and positive affect. The chain mediation effect of psychological resilience and regulatory emotional self-efficacy on the relationship between physical activity and positive affect was significant. These results indicated that physical activity could positively impact adolescents' positive affect through psychological resilience and regulatory emotional self-efficacy. Our findings highlighted the importance of physical activity on positive affect on adolescents, which would benefit the mental health of this population.
期刊介绍：
Psychology, Health & Medicine is a multidisciplinary journal highlighting human factors in health. The journal provides a peer reviewed forum to report on issues of psychology and health in practice. This key publication reaches an international audience, highlighting the variation and similarities within different settings and exploring multiple health and illness issues from theoretical, practical and management perspectives. It provides a critical forum to examine the wide range of applied health and illness issues and how they incorporate psychological knowledge, understanding, theory and intervention. The journal reflects the growing recognition of psychosocial issues as they affect health planning, medical care, disease reaction, intervention, quality of life, adjustment adaptation and management.
For many years theoretical research was very distant from applied understanding. The emerging movement in health psychology, changes in medical care provision and training, and consumer awareness of health issues all contribute to a growing need for applied research. This journal focuses on practical applications of theory, research and experience and provides a bridge between academic knowledge, illness experience, wellbeing and health care practice.
