Document Summary
# of people or contacts you talk to , speak to, friends you have straight up number of people you have in your life simply counting the number of contacts doesn"t reflect the quality of those relationships. Best way to measure is reflected in the amount and type of support received. What do you think? social support is positively correlated with physical activity. Kids need instrumental support to get places or do things, kids don"t usually have their own drive. Sources of social influence on exercise family (spouse, children, parents) health care providers exercise leaders/instructors (exercise leader) other exercise participants (exercise group) co-exercisers and observers. Sources of influence: family spouse/partner: positive relationship between pa levels and amount of social support that partner provides. Parents: one of the strongest predictors of pa participation among children. Opposite of controlled is autonomy and independence (self- determination theory one of 3 basic psychological needs, people need to feel autonomous)
