Abstract

Objective: The objective was to investigate associations between mastery and physical activity with psychological distress in a population-based sample of mid-aged adults.

Method: Self-reported measures of psychological distress, mastery and time spent in each of walking, moderate and vigorous physical activity in the previous week were examined in a cross-sectional sample of 7,146 adults aged 40-64 years (M = 53 years, SD = 6.5 years, 42.4% men). Generalized Linear Models were used to examine the inter-relationship between mastery and physical activity with psychological distress.

Results: In fully adjusted models, only mastery was significantly associated with psychological distress (β = - 0.12, SE = 0.01, p < .01). There was no significant interaction between mastery and physical activity on psychological distress.

Conclusions: Mastery may be an important resource against psychological distress. A sense of control may therefore be a key component for psychotherapeutic interventions to mitigate distress in mid-aged adults.

中老年人的掌握、体育活动与心理困扰

目的：目的是在以人群为基础的中年人样本中调查掌握和体力活动与心理困扰之间的关系。方法：对7146名年龄在40-64岁的成年人（M = 53岁，SD = 6.5岁，男性42.4%）进行自我报告的心理困扰、精通程度和每项步行、中度和剧烈体育活动的时间。采用广义线性模型来检验精通程度与体力活动与心理困扰之间的相互关系。结果：在完全调整后的模型中，只有精通与心理困扰有显著相关（β = - 0.12, SE = 0.01, p）。结论：精通可能是预防心理困扰的重要资源。因此，控制感可能是心理治疗干预的关键组成部分，以减轻中年人的痛苦。
