Abstract

While regular exercise is associated with a number of physical and mental health benefits, basing one's self-esteem largely on exercise is likely associated with negative outcomes. In the present studies, the authors developed a novel measure of this construct, something they term "exercise overvaluation." In Study 1, 820 participants completed an online survey measuring self-esteem, exercise attitudes and behaviors, and eating disorder symptoms. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis were employed to develop the 14-item Exercise Overvaluation Scale. The results provided evidence of discriminant and convergent validity and internal consistency reliability of scale scores. In Study 2, the Exercise Overvaluation Scale was administered to 134 university athletes, including those who participated in intramural sports, club sports, and collegiate athletics. The results from Study 2 supported the criterion validity and test-retest reliability of scale scores. This scale offers researchers a new tool to help understand the relationships among exercise, self-esteem, and physical and mental health outcomes.

运动高估量表的编制及心理测量学评价。

虽然经常锻炼对身心健康有很多好处，但把自尊主要建立在锻炼上可能会带来负面影响。在目前的研究中，作者开发了一种新的测量方法，他们称之为“运动高估”。在第1820项研究中，参与者完成了一项在线调查，测量自尊、运动态度和行为以及饮食失调症状。采用探索性和验证性因子分析编制了14项运动高估量表。结果表明，量表得分具有判别效度、收敛效度和内部一致性信度。研究2采用运动高估量表对134名参加校内体育运动、俱乐部体育运动和大学体育运动的运动员进行评估。研究2的结果支持量表得分的标准效度和重测信度。这个量表为研究人员提供了一个新的工具，帮助他们理解锻炼、自尊和身心健康结果之间的关系。

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.
