Abstract(s)
Como objetivo deste trabalho, definiu se analisar os efeitos indiretos de determinantes
motivacionais no divertimento e na persistência
em praticantes de exercício físico regular. Parti ciparam ao todo 967 praticantes de exercício em
ginásio e health clubs, com idades compreendidas
entre 18 e 65 anos (M=45,08; DP=13,76). Todos
os participantes tinham mais de 6 meses de expe riência regular em exercício físico. Os participan tes preencheram ao todo questionários traduzidos
e validados para a língua portuguesa no contexto
do exercício físico, que examinavam a perceção
dos comportamentos interpessoais, as necessida des psicológicas básicas, a regulação da motiva ção e o divertimento. A persistência foi medida
através de registos eletrónicos, considerando um
praticante persistente aquele que tivesse uma fre quência semanal similar aquela auto-reportada
no momento inicial. A maioria das regressões são
significativas, confirmado os pressupostos da lite ratura existente. Os efeitos indiretos mostram que
o divertimento desempenha um papel crucial na
persistência, tanto por via motivação autónoma,
como por via motivação controlada. Em suma,
atividades promotoras do prazer que os pratican tes de ginásio e health club experienciam durante
a prática de exercício físico poderão ser a variável
chave na persistência a longo prazo.
The scope of this paper was to ana lyze the impact of motivational determinants in enjoyment and persistence in physical exercise among practitioners of physical exercise. In total, 967 gym and health club exercise practitioners aged between 18 and 65 (M=45.08; SD=13.76) were recruited for analysis. All participants had more than six months of regular exercise prac tice. Participants completed and validated scales in the exercise context duly translated into Por tuguese, assessing interpersonal behaviors, basic psychological needs, and behavioral regulation. Persistence was measured using computerized records considering persistent exercisers as being those who were exercising at similar frequencies as those self-reported at the initial assessment. Re sults showed that the measurement and structural model fit the data. Several significant effects were found supporting previous literature. Indirect ef fects showed enjoyment to play a crucial role on exercise persistence, both by the significant effect via autonomous and controlled motivation. In es sence, activities that give pleasure that gym and health club exercisers experience during the prac tice of physical exercise can be the key variable of long-term persistence.
