Title: Individual differences, exercise and leisure activity in predicting affective well-being in young adults / C. Sale, A. Guppy and M. El-SayedAuthor: Sale, C.
Notes: Sumario: This study focuses on the prevalence of exercise and health-related leisure activities (smoking, drinking), across groups of subjects, defined by personality and gender, in relation to subjective well-being. It is concluded that the influence of individual differences such as personality and gender on coping behaviour and well-being is consistent with social learning theory research. Limitations of cross-sectional research designs necessitate caution with inferring causal paths. Recommendations for future research are presented concerning the use and value of repeated measures designs within research into exercise and well-beingRelated records: En: Ergonomics. - London and Washington. - Vol. 43, nº 10, October 2000 ; p. 1689-1697Materia / lugar / evento: Salud Centros de ocio Ejercicio físico Formación Otros autores: Guppy, Andrew
