To explore the influencing factors that restrict the exercise behavior of children and adolescents, investigate the effect of subjective exercise experience on exercise behavior, and reveal the mediating effect of exercise commitment between subjective exercise experience and exercise behavior so as to promote children and adolescents to maintain good health exercise habits and improve their physical and mental health.
The Subjective Exercise Experience Scale (SEES), Exercise Commitment Scale (ECC), and Physical Exercise Rating Scale (PARS-3) were used to conduct a questionnaire survey on 600 children and adolescents in Chongqing, China, and SPSS21.0 and AMOS21.0 statistical analysis software was used to carry out statistics and analyses on the questionnaires.
(1) Among children and adolescents, boys' exercise commitment and exercise behavior were significantly higher than girls', and there was no significant gender difference in subjective exercise experience. The exercise behavior of children and adolescents aged 9-12 was significantly higher than that of children and adolescents aged 13-15, and there was no significant age difference in subjective exercise experience and exercise commitment. (2) There was a significant correlation between the subjective exercise experience, exercise commitment, and exercise behavior of children and adolescents, and subjective exercise experience could directly and positively predict exercise commitment ( = 0.63) and exercise behavior ( = 0.57)-exercise commitment could also directly and positively predict exercise behavior ( = 0.52). (3) The exercise commitment of children and adolescents has a partial mediating effect between subjective exercise experience and exercise behavior (accounting for 37.50% of the total effect), and has a mediating effect between different exercise amounts, with the strongest mediating effect being on high exercise amount (32.10% of the total effect).
The exercise behavior of children and adolescents was not only directly affected by subjective exercise experience, but also affected by the mediating effect of exercise commitment, and maintaining a good exercise experience and commitment was an effective way to effectively improve exercise behavior and amount of exercise in children and adolescents.
探讨限制儿童和青少年运动行为的影响因素，考察主观运动体验对运动行为的影响，揭示运动承诺在主观运动体验与运动行为之间的中介作用，从而促进儿童和青少年保持良好的健康运动习惯，提高身心健康。
采用主观运动体验量表（SEES）、运动承诺量表（ECC）和身体运动评定量表（PARS-3）对重庆市 600 名儿童和青少年进行问卷调查，采用 SPSS21.0 和 AMOS21.0 统计分析软件对问卷进行统计分析。
（1）在儿童和青少年中，男孩的运动承诺和运动行为显著高于女孩，主观运动体验无显著性别差异；9-12 岁儿童和青少年的运动行为显著高于 13-15 岁儿童和青少年，主观运动体验和运动承诺无显著年龄差异。（2）儿童和青少年的主观运动体验、运动承诺与运动行为之间存在显著相关性，主观运动体验能直接正向预测运动承诺（β=0.63）和运动行为（β=0.57），运动承诺也能直接正向预测运动行为（β=0.52）。（3）儿童和青少年的运动承诺在主观运动体验与运动行为之间具有部分中介作用（总效应的 37.50%），且对不同运动量具有中介作用，其中对高运动量的中介效应最强（总效应的 32.10%）。
儿童和青少年的运动行为不仅受到主观运动体验的直接影响，还受到运动承诺的中介作用影响，保持良好的运动体验和承诺是有效提高儿童和青少年运动行为和运动量的有效途径。
