Physical activity has wide-ranging consequences for people's physical, mental, and social health. Although the beneficial effects of physical activity on well-being were widely studied, how it promotes well-being remained unclear. The present study utilized the measure of physical activity rating scale (PARS-3), flourishing scale (FS), Chinese- meaning in life questionnaire (C-MLQ), and general self-efficacy scale (GSES) to examine the connection between physical activity and flourishing and the multiple mediation effects of meaning and self-efficacy with 827 Chinese undergraduates. The results indicated that (a) physical activity positively predicted flourishing; (b) meaning in life and self-efficacy played mediating roles in physical activity and flourishing, separately and jointly. Our findings revealed the mechanism of physical activity fostering flourishing, thereby providing an empirical basis for promoting health and flourishing, especially during COVID-19.
身体活动对人们的身体、心理和社会健康有着广泛的影响。尽管身体活动对幸福感的有益影响已得到广泛研究，但其促进幸福感的方式仍不明确。本研究采用身体活动评定量表（PARS - 3）、蓬勃发展量表（FS）、中文生活意义问卷（C - MLQ）和一般自我效能感量表（GSES），对827名中国大学生进行调查，以检验身体活动与蓬勃发展之间的联系以及意义和自我效能感的多重中介作用。结果表明：（a）身体活动能正向预测蓬勃发展；（b）生活意义和自我效能感分别及共同在身体活动与蓬勃发展之间起中介作用。我们的研究结果揭示了身体活动促进蓬勃发展的机制，从而为促进健康和蓬勃发展提供了实证依据，尤其是在新冠疫情期间。
