Myers, Nicholas D.; Lee, Seungmin; Bateman, André G.; Wekesser, Meredith; Prilleltensky, Isaac; McMahon, Adam; Brincks, Ahnalee M. – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2023
The objective of this study was to provide initial validity evidence for responses to the newly developed Well-Being Actions Self-Efficacy (WBASE) scale from adults with obesity under an exploratory latent variable approach. Longitudinal data (N[subscript baseline] = 667 and N[subscript 30 days post-baseline] = 550) from the Well-Being and…

Rhodes, Ryan E.; Berry, Tanya; Naylor, Patti-Jean; Higgins, S. Joan Wharf – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2004
Though the processes of change are conceived as the core constructs of the transtheoretical model (TTM), few researchers have examined their construct validity in the physical activity domain. Further, only 1 study was designed to investigate the processes of change in an adolescent sample. The purpose of this study was to examine the exercise…
