ABSTRACT:
An association between exercise behavior and exercise identity has been observed in cross-sectional and laboratory studies. The present study examined this relationship using a prospective research design. Participants were female adults enrolled in exercise (n=27) or non-exercise (n=22) classes. At baseline, 7-, and 14-weeks post-baseline, participants completed a 7-day recall of exercise behavior and a measure of exercise identity. The overall 2 (class) by 3 (time) repeated measures MANCOVA (covariate = age) performed on the vector of mean scores was significant (p less than .001). Follow-up testing revealed significant two-way interactions for exercise behavior (p less than .0001) and exercise identity (p less than .001). Specifically, those attending exercise classes increased their exercise behavior and identity, whereas those attending the non-exercise classes did not.
