Abstract

This study investigates Processes of Exercise Behavior Change on the basis of famous Trans theoretical model (Prochaska et al, 1986). The number of 292 students (144 boys and 148 girls) were selected by multi-stage clustered. Then, they completed Stages of Exercise Behavior Change (SEBC) (Cardinal, 1997, and Processes of change (Nigg, 2001) questionnaires. For data analysis, ANOVA and Multiple Discriminant Function Analysis tests were used. The results showed that in behavioral processes (no cognitive) there was significant difference between SEBC (P<0.05). Results showed there was significant different between SEBC in Stimulus Control, Counter Conditioning and Helping Relationships variables (behavioral processes) (P<0.05). Multiple Discriminates Analysis showed that and behavioral processes are significant predictive for SEBC. The results of this research emphasis on important role of environmental sensitivity about individual physical activity, existence behavioral alternatives for undesirable behavior (lack of exercise) and Create an environment with many exercises stimulus and also present ways to change the current status people.
