Abstract

Aim: The study has been conceived to investigate motivation and barriers of physical activity participation in young adults. Material and Methods: Two hundred and twenty-two university students aged 19-24 years included in this study. Demographic information form, Motivation Scale For Participation In Physical Activity (MSPPA) and Physical Activity Barriers Questionnaire (PABQ) were used in the study. Results: When the correlation between physical activity barriers and motivation to participate in physical activity was evaluated, a moderate negative correlation was found between PABQ Total and MSPPA Total (r=-0.41, p<0.01). It was found that; regular physical activity during the university period had a negative correlation with PABQ Total (r=-0.26; p<0.01) and a positive correlation with MSPPA Total (r=0.14, p=0.04). Conclusion: Findings showed that motivation to participate in physical activity was associated with physical activity barriers in many aspects. The study also demonstrated that individuals in this age group had a high motivation for physical activity, but the rates of regular physical activity were insufficient.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışma, genç erişkin bireylerde fiziksel aktiviteye katılım motivasyonu ve engellerinin incelenmesi amacı ile planlandı.Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya 19-24 yaş arası, 222 üniversite öğrencisi dahil edildi. Çalışmada demografik bilgi formu, Fiziksel Aktiviteye Katılım Motivasyon Ölçeği (FAKMÖ) ve Fiziksel Aktivite Engelleri Ölçeği (FAEÖ) kulanıldı.Bulgular: Fiziksel aktivite engelleri ve fiziksel aktiviteye katılım motivasyonu arasındaki korelasyon incelendiğinde; FAEÖ Total ve FAKMÖ Total arasında negatif yönde orta şiddette korelasyon saptandı (r=-0.41, p<0.01). Üniversite döneminde düzenli fiziksel aktivite yapma durumu ile FAEÖ Total arasında negatif (r=-0.26, p= p<0.01) ve FAKMÖ Total puanı arasında pozitif yönde korelasyon saptandı (r=0.14, p=0.04). Sonuç: Bulgular, fiziksel aktiviteye katılma motivasyonunun birçok açıdan fiziksel aktivite engelleriyle ilişkili olduğunu göstermiştir. Çalışma aynı zamanda bu yaş grubundaki bireylerin fiziksel aktivite için yüksek motivasyona sahip olduğunu, ancak düzenli fiziksel aktivite oranlarının yetersiz olduğunu göstermiştir.
