Community assets may play an important role in enabling ageing in place. Features like access to health and social care, physical environments that support mobility, natural environments and community spaces that sustain social connection may influence whether people can continue to live successfully at home. Increasing digitisation and spatial data availability have expanded opportunities to measure such characteristics quantitatively. We review…
Predicting implicit and explicit exercise identity from descriptive social norms regarding exercise
OBJECTIVES: Exercise identity may promote exercise maintenance. However, less is known about factors that affect exercise identity. Whether descriptive social norms are potential intervention targets for identity development was evaluated. DESIGN: A cross-sectional design using data from the Attitudes, Identities, and Individual Differences (AIID) study was employed - with additional cases collected to increase sample size and power - to evaluate…
Some habits are more work than others
OBJECTIVE: We tested the hypothesis that complex behaviors are commonly supported by self-regulation strategies, even when those behaviors are supported by strong instigation habits. BACKGROUND: Goal-directed and habit-mediated processes arise from separable systems that have been suggested to seldomly interact. RESULTS: Self-regulation strategy use was lower for habitually instigated simple behaviors compared to nonhabitually instigated simple b…
Neighbourhood social cohesion, loneliness and multimorbidity
In the context of population ageing, multimorbidity is an increasingly prevalent public health issue that has a substantial impact on both individuals and healthcare systems. Alongside the literature looking at risk factors at the individual level, there is a growing body of research examining the role of neighbourhoods in the development of multimorbidity. However, most of this work has focused on physical features of place such as air pollution…
Contrasting constructs or continuum? Examining the dimensionality of body appreciation and body dissatisfaction
Individuals experiencing body dissatisfaction have poorer health outcomes in part due to engaging in less physical activity. Body appreciation is protective of health behaviors and proposed to be conceptually different from body dissatisfaction. Two studies evaluated whether body appreciation and dissatisfaction represented two distinct dimensions, and whether body appreciation and dissatisfaction would interact in their effect on activity-relate…
Source-Orientation and Avoidance/Approach-Orientation are Important Components of Introjected Regulation for Leisure-Time Physical Activity
Introjected regulation has been inconsistently linked to physical activity, which may be due to it being an umbrella construct for different types of introjected regulation that have the potential to be differentially related to behavior. We evaluated (1) whether self-oriented approach, self-oriented avoidance, other-oriented approach, and other-oriented avoidance were distinct constructs from one another and from identified regulation, and (2) w…
Do measures of country-level safety predict individual-level health outcomes
