Although regular exercise has important health benefits, women's physical activity participation remains low. Addressing the gender- and generation-specific barriers in an intervention may help women become more physically active. Fifty women (mean age = 45 years) participated in a six-session cognitive-behavioral intervention. Baseline, post-intervention, and follow-up data were collected. Total physical activity levels increased from baseline to post-intervention and were maintained at long-term follow-up. This research suggests that participation in a comprehensive, cognitive-behavioral, and empowerment-based physical activity intervention, tailored to address women's distinct constraints and pressures due to sociopsychological experiences, can facilitate increased physical activity among white, middle-aged women.
尽管经常锻炼对健康有重要益处，但女性的体育活动参与率仍然很低。在干预措施中解决特定性别和特定代际的障碍可能有助于女性增加体育活动。五十名女性（平均年龄 = 45岁）参加了为期六节的认知行为干预。收集了基线、干预后和随访数据。总体体育活动水平从基线到干预后有所增加，并在长期随访中保持。这项研究表明，参与一项全面的、基于认知行为和赋权的体育活动干预，该干预针对解决女性因社会心理经历而面临的独特限制和压力进行了调整，可以促进白人中年女性增加体育活动。
