本研究探讨了健康相关原型和可能自我对锻炼行为的影响。此外，本研究还考察了这些影响是否会受到个体差异的调节，特别是社会比较（SC）和对未来后果的考虑（CFC）。152名学生参加了所有三波的研究-预处理，操作和后续行动。正如预期的那样，结果表明，高SC和暴露于原型操作的个体在随访时增加了他们的运动行为。此外，未来导向和暴露于可能的自我操纵的个体在随访时增加了他们的锻炼行为。总体而言，结果显示，健康形象对健康行为有重要影响。行为改变的影响进行了讨论。
This study investigated the impact of health-related Prototypes and possible selves on exercise behavior. In addition, this study examined if these effects might be moderated by individual differences-specifically social comparison (SC) and consideration Of future consequences (CFC). One hundred and fifty-two students participated in all three waves of the study-premanipulation, manipulation, and follow-up. As expected, results indicated that individuals who were high on SC and exposed to a prototype manipulation increased their exercise behavior at follow-up. Furthermore, individuals who were future-oriented and exposed to a possible selves manipulation increased their exercise behavior at follow-up. Overall, results revealed that health images have an important impact on health behavior. Implications for behavior change are discussed.
