Abstract

Outdoor Recreation (OR) provides the benefits of physical activity (PA) and traditional leisure placed in an outdoor environment. Motivation, self-efficacy, and autonomy can increase depending on the physical and social environment. This study explored the relationship between self-efficacy and autonomy on OR behaviors and identified barriers and supporters to OR during the COVID-19 pandemic. Survey information was collected from 995 U.S. adults (93.6% white, 64.0% female) regarding OR behaviors, changes in OR during COVID-19, and OR self-perceptions. Significant positive correlations existed between autonomy and self-efficacy (r = 0.138, p < 0.01), and self-efficacy and pre/post pandemic OR behaviors 2020 (r = 0.158, p < 0.01), (r = 0.129, p < 0.01) respectively. Qualitative data implied barriers and supporters to OR as: social, psychological health, and increased or changed OR/PA. Implications from this research are beneficial to OR and health professionals to promote overall physical and psychological well-being for OR participants.

新冠肺炎疫情期间自我效能感和自主性对户外游憩行为的影响

户外娱乐(OR)提供了在户外环境中进行身体活动(PA)和传统休闲的好处。动机、自我效能和自主性会随着物质和社会环境的变化而增加。本研究探讨了自我效能感与手术室行为自主性之间的关系，并确定了COVID-19大流行期间手术室的障碍和支持者。收集了995名美国成年人(93.6%白人，64.0%女性)关于OR行为、COVID-19期间OR变化和OR自我认知的调查信息。自主性与自我效能感呈显著正相关(r = 0.138, p < 0.01)，自我效能感与疫情前后的OR行为呈显著正相关(r = 0.158, p < 0.01)， (r = 0.129, p < 0.01)。定性数据暗示OR的障碍和支持者为:社会、心理健康、OR/PA增加或改变。本研究的启示有利于手术室和健康专业人员促进手术室参与者的整体身心健康。
