Imagery interventions intended to increase exercise behavior are rare. The Active Adult Mentoring Program (AAMP) was a randomized controlled trial with imagery content. The purposes of this study were to examine the content and perceived utility of mental imagery with 24 AAMP participants ( = 65.00, = 8.79 years). Digital recordings of AAMP sessions and post-intervention interviews were content-analyzed. Emergent themes included images of the physical activity context and negative impressions about imagery. Post-intervention interviews revealed that 13 participants reported positive experiences using mental imagery while 9 would not engage in further use. Important implications are discussed.
旨在增加运动行为的意象干预很少见。成人积极指导计划(AAMP)是一项包含意象内容的随机对照试验。本研究的目的是调查24名AAMP参与者(年龄 = 65.00岁,标准差 = 8.79岁)的心理意象内容和感知效用。对AAMP课程的数字记录和干预后访谈进行了内容分析。浮现出的主题包括体育活动情境的意象以及对意象的负面印象。干预后访谈显示,13名参与者报告使用心理意象有积极体验,而9名参与者不会再使用。文中讨论了重要的启示。
