DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Women's participation in regular exercise is a major factor in preventing heart disease, the leading cause of death in women. Only 15% of adults exercise at the recommended level, and the percentage of rural women who do so is even less. Heart-to-heart (HTH) is an innovative intervention designed to increase exercise in rural women at risk of developing coronary heart disease. The specific aims of this research project are to: (1) Determine the magnitude of change in exercise adherence and cardio respiratory fitness and whether this magnitude differs for rural women in HTH and rural women in the control group; (2) Examine the magnitude of change in self-efficacy, stage of change, and social support and whether this change differs for rural women in HTH and rural women in the control group; (3) Examine whether self-efficacy, stage of change, and social support mediate the relationship between HTH and the outcome variables of exercise adherence and cardio respiratory fitness; (4) Describe HTH participants' experiences with the intervention. Data from exercise logs will measure adherence, a 12-minute walk test will measure fitness, and self-report data will measure self-efficacy, social support, and group cohesion. Quantitative data will be analyzed with ANOVA, hierarchical regression and effect sizes. Qualitative data will be analyzed with qualitative content analysis.

说明（由申请人提供）：妇女参加有规律的锻炼是预防心脏病的一个主要因素，心脏病是妇女死亡的主要原因。只有15%的成年人按照建议水平进行锻炼，农村妇女这样做的比例更低。心脏对心脏（HTH）是一项创新的干预措施，旨在增加有患冠心病风险的农村妇女的锻炼。本研究项目的具体目的是：(1)确定HTH农村妇女与对照组农村妇女运动依从性和心肺健康的变化幅度，以及这种变化幅度是否不同；(2)考察HTH农村妇女的自我效能感、变化阶段和社会支持的变化幅度，以及HTH农村妇女与对照组农村妇女的变化是否不同；(3)考察自我效能感、变化阶段、社会支持是否在HTH与运动依从性、心肺健康结局变量之间起中介作用；(4)描述HTH参与者对干预的体验。锻炼记录的数据将衡量坚持程度，12分钟步行测试将衡量健康状况，自我报告数据将衡量自我效能、社会支持和群体凝聚力。定量数据将用方差分析、层次回归和效应大小进行分析。定性数据将通过定性内容分析进行分析。
