Document Summary
Applied model of imagery use in exercise model moderating factors. Can impact efficacy beliefs or behavioural or cognitive outcomes. Exercise frequency is a strong predictor of exercise imagery. High frequency exercisers used all 3 types of imagery more often than low frequency exercisers. Moderators: exercise frequency order of use (both high and low frequency exercisers) This finding is across imagery types: appearance (ms, technique (cs, energy (mga) Regardless of frequency of exercise, we always see the same pattern. More active increased appearance/health (ms: huge motivator for exercise. Less active increased technique (cs: may not see results right away, because they"(cid:396)e (cid:374)ovice, so they (cid:374)eed to pictu(cid:396)e to use (cid:373)achi(cid:374)es co(cid:396)(cid:396)ectly. Regardless of activity type: appearance imagery used most often, followed by technique then energy the least frequently.
