我们调查了锻炼书面信息的流畅性与参与者对锻炼的兴趣、安全性、自我效能感、结果期望和行为意图的关系。我们随机将400名年龄在40-69岁的男性和女性分配为对照组或干预组。干预组的运动自我效能感(易读)显著高于对照组(难读)(p=0.04)。易于阅读的书面健康信息可能不仅对于使书面健康信息易于理解，而且对于提高读者采取与健康相关的行为的自我效能来说都是重要的。
We investigated the relationship of processing fluency of written information about exercise to participants' perceived interest, safety, self-efficacy, outcome expectation, and behavioral intention regarding the exercise. We randomly assigned 400 men and women aged 40-69 years to control or intervention conditions. Perceived self-efficacy of performing the exercise in the intervention group (i.e. easy to read) was significantly higher than that in the control group (i.e. difficult to read) (p = 0.04). Easy-to-read written health information may be important not only for making written health information comprehensible but also for increasing readers' self-efficacy for adopting health-related behaviors.
