Abstract

This study tested direct and indirect associations between body-related self-conscious emotions (authentic pride, hubristic pride, shame, guilt), moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA), and flourishing. Sex was tested as a moderator. Participants (N = 523; Mage = 35.9 years, 55.4% male) completed self-report surveys. Moderated mediation models were performed separately for each emotion. There were significant direct effects of each emotion and MVPA with flourishing, and the effects for authentic and hubristic pride were significant only for males. The indirect associations were also significant, such that lower guilt and higher authentic and hubristic pride along with higher MVPA were related to higher flourishing for males and females. The indirect effect of shame, MVPA, and flourishing was only significant for females. The findings suggest sex differences in the importance of body-related emotions, MVPA, and flourishing that may require unique theoretical and practical considerations to understand how body image may thwart or promote flourishing for males and females.

身体相关情绪、身体活动与男性和女性的健康：一个有调节的中介分析。

这项研究测试了与身体相关的自我意识情绪（真实的骄傲、傲慢的骄傲、羞耻、内疚）、中度到剧烈的体育活动（MVPA）和繁荣之间的直接和间接联系。性别被测试为调节因素。参与者(N = 523；年龄35.9岁，男性55.4%)完成自我报告调查。对每种情绪分别进行调节的中介模型。各情绪对MVPA有显著的直接影响，而对真实和傲慢的影响仅对男性有显著影响。间接关联也很显著，如较低的内疚感、较高的真实和傲慢的骄傲以及较高的MVPA与男性和女性的较高繁荣相关。羞耻感、MVPA和繁荣的间接影响仅对女性显著。研究结果表明，性别在身体相关情绪、MVPA和繁荣的重要性上存在差异，这可能需要独特的理论和实践考虑来理解身体形象是如何阻碍或促进男性和女性的繁荣的。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Sport & Exercise Psychology (JSEP) is a peer-reviewed publication designed to stimulate and communicate research theory in all areas of sport and exercise psychology. JSEP emphasizes original research reports that advance our understanding of human behavior as it relates to sport and exercise. Comprehensive reviews employing both qualitative and quantitative methods are also encouraged, as well as brief reports of soundly designed research studies that are of special interest or importance. Areas of interest include research in social, clinical, developmental, and experimental psychology, as well as psychobiology and personality. Moreover, the terms sport and exercise may pertain to either the independent or dependent variables. Generally speaking, work on motor control processes, studies of sport as a social institution, or broader social issues are beyond the scope of JSEP. A wide variety of methods are acceptable for studying sport and exercise psychology topics.
