标题：Development and its Evaluation of the Distance and Interactive Proper System for College Students that Promotes Physical Activity through the Internet
摘要：The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of the i-PAP, an internet-based Physical Activity Program, in promoting physical activity, as well as to assess the effectiveness of i-PAP functions and e-mail tip sheets in promoting positive attitudes toward regular physical activity. This study was designed to test the efficacy of the i-PAP over a 14-week, in-semester period among 81 college students who had been allocated to an intervention group (n=52) or a no-intervention group (n=29). In repeated measures ANOVA, the intervention group exhibited a significant increase in energy expenditure, compared to the no-intervention group. In factor and path analyses, goal-setting and scheduling the latter of which involved the individual setting dates and times for regular physical activity were critical functions in promoting physical activity. The i-PAP showed strong effectiveness in promoting physical activity, as expected. In particular, goal-setting and scheduling seemed to have positive effects on attitudes toward physical activity.
