运动对于长期减肥很重要,但很少有研究探讨如何提高参与行为减肥计划的超重受试者的运动依从性。本文介绍了两项研究,一项在匹兹堡大学进行,另一项在明尼苏达大学进行,旨在通过对控制运动的环境前因和后果进行更直接的控制来提高运动依从性,研究 1 调查了私人教练的使用情况,该教练定期给参与者打电话,并在预定的时间到他们的家中或办公室散步,研究2 调查了彩票激励对运动坚持的影响,在这两项研究中,这些操作的效果都是在为期 24 周的标准行为体重控制计划(每周 3 次监督运动)的背景下进行的。与控制条件相比,这两种干预措施都没有在运动坚持方面取得统计学上的显着改善,这可能部分是由于研究的统计能力有限。未来的研究应侧重于更好地了解运动障碍,并设计解决这些障碍的行为干预措施。
Exercise is important for long-term weight loss, but few studies have examined ways to improve exercise adherence in overweight subjects participating in a behavioral weight loss program, This paper presents two studies, one conducted at the University of Pittsburgh and one at the University of Minnesota, that sought to improve exercise adherence by exerting more direct control over the environmental antecedents and consequences controlling exercise, Study 1 investigated the use of a personal trainer who called participants regularly and met them at their home or office at scheduled times for a walk, Study 2 investigated the effect of a lottery incentive for exercise adherence, In both studies, the effect of these manipulations was examined in the context of a 24-week standard behavioral weight control program with three supervised exercise sessions per week, Neither intervention achieved statistically significant improvements in exercise adherence compared to control conditions, perhaps due in part to the limited statistical power of the studies, Future studies should focus on better understanding the barriers to exercise and designing behavioral interventions that address these barriers.
