dc.description.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. | en_US |
