  • How does exercising make you feel? The associations between positive and negative affect, life satisfaction, self-esteem, and vitality
    Publication . Faustino, Tatiana; Santos, Abel; Teixeira, Eduardo; Cid, Luis; Monteiro, Diogo; Rodrigues, Filipe
    The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between regular physical exercise and affective responses to the behaviour, and to investigate the relationship with life satisfaction, self-esteem, and vitality. In total, 264 Portuguese exercisers (female = 157) aged between 18 and 69 years (M = 12.93; SD = 1.49) were considered for analysis in this study. Participants were regular exercisers with a mean year experience of 5.73 (SD = 3.19). Looking at the results, the structural model displayed acceptable fit to the data: χ2 (314) = 515.904; p < .001; CFI = .928; TLI = .919; RMSEA .049 [.042, .057]. Overall, significant direct effects were found as theoretically proposed, namely: exercise frequency displayed a positive and significant association with positive affect; positive affect was positively associated with life satisfaction, self-esteem, and subjective vitality; and, negative affect was negatively correlated with life satisfaction, self-esteem, and subjective vitality. Exercise frequency had a positive and significant indirect effect on life satisfaction, self-esteem, and subjective vitality via positive affect, but not via negative affect.

Os dados evidenciados permitem a reflexão acerca de um corpo que, influenciado e moldado pelo tempo, pela cultura e pela sociedade, possui uma íntima relação com a dança, construindo sua corporeidade por meio das partidas e oportunidades no dançar a dois
