Abstract

The study used questionnaires in order to propose an explanatory model for weight control practices. Participants were 160 adults grouped by sex and body mass index. Data analysis was carried out using descriptive and inferential statistics. Participants were actively involved, viewed weight control as positive, and showed strong behavioral intentions regarding weight control. Subjective norms, past conduct, and dissatisfaction with their bodies were the strongest predictors. Diet control and exercise operated according to different models. Involvement was the strongest predictor of the former, while perceived habits and control were the determinants of exercise practice.

体重控制实践:预测模型的建议

该研究采用问卷调查的方式，为体重控制实践提出一个解释模型。参与者是160名按性别和体重指数分组的成年人。数据分析采用描述性统计和推理统计。参与者积极参与，认为体重控制是积极的，并且在体重控制方面表现出强烈的行为意图。主观规范、过去的行为和对自己身体的不满意是最强的预测因素。根据不同的模型进行饮食控制和运动。参与是前者的最强预测因子，而感知到的习惯和控制是锻炼练习的决定因素。本文出处:Justo, A.， Camargo, B.， & Barbara da Silva Bousfield, A.(2018)。体重控制实践:预测模型的建议。哥伦比亚心理学研究，27(2)，51 - 67。doi: https://doi.org/10.15446/rcp.v27n2.63328
