标题:Examination of the constraints and facilitators to physical activity participation of individuals Bireylerin fiziksel aktiviteye katılımını engelleyen ve kolaylaştıran faktörlerin belirlenmesi
摘要:This study aims to determine the factors which constraint and facilitate individuals’ participation to physical activities. Sample group of the study consist of 691 individuals who live in different districts of Ankara and chosen by random sampling method. In the study “Leisure Constraints Scale-18” is used to determine the factors that constraint individuals’ participation to physical activities and “Leisure Facilitators Scale” to determine the factors that facilitate the individuals’ participation to physical activities. As a statistical method frequency, arithmetic mean, standard deviation, ANOVA, single factorial MANOVA, and Pearson Correlation tests were used. According to the analysis results, it is determined that “Intrinsic Facilitators” is a factor that affects women to participate physical activity and has a higher role in constraining single participants to join physical activity. Furthermore, it is revealed that perceptions of constraint decrease with the increase in participants’ level of income. As a result, the most important factor that constraints individuals’ participation to physical activity is “Structural Constraints” and the most important factor that facilitates is “Intrapersonal Facilitators”.
