This consensus statement from Sports Medicine Australia and the Australian Psychological Society aims to provide guidance to practitioners on the ways that physical activity can be promoted to maximise benefits to mental health.
Following the Clinical Consensus Statement protocol, an expert group comprised of eight members with expertise in physical activity and mental health articulated recommendations regarding five physical activity contextual factors: type, physical environment, delivery, domain, and social environment.
To optimise the mental health benefits of physical activity, we recommend: i) activity selection be guided by factors associated with adherence and enjoyment as opposed to any specific type (type); ii) facilitators (i.e., teachers, coaches, instructors, practitioners) deliver organised physical activity sessions using an instructional style that satisfies individuals' basic needs for autonomy, competence and social connection (delivery); iii) participation in physical activity with others who provide support, facilitate positive interactions, or make people feel valued, so long as it does not undermine a preference to be active alone (social environment); iv) where possible and appropriate, some physical activity should be undertaken outside in pleasant natural environments (physical environment); and, v) at least some physical activity be undertaken during leisure-time or via active travel, where possible prioritising activities one personally chooses to undertake (domain).
The type, domain, physical and social environment of physical activity, as well as the way in which it is delivered, will determine mental health outcomes. Practitioners can use these recommendations to optimise the effects of physical activity on mental health.
本共识声明由澳大利亚运动医学学会和澳大利亚心理学会发布，旨在为从业者提供有关促进身体活动以最大限度地促进心理健康的指导。
根据临床共识声明方案，一个由 8 名具有身体活动和心理健康专业知识的专家组成的专家组，就五个身体活动背景因素提出了建议：活动类型、身体环境、实施方式、活动领域和社会环境。
为了优化身体活动对心理健康的益处，我们建议：i）活动选择应根据与坚持和享受相关的因素，而不是任何特定类型（类型）来指导；ii）促进者（即教师、教练、指导员、从业者）使用满足个人自主、能力和社会联系基本需求的教学风格来提供组织的身体活动课程（交付）；iii）与提供支持、促进积极互动或让人感到有价值的人一起参与身体活动，只要这不妨碍个人独自活动的偏好（社会环境）；iv）在可能和适当的情况下，应在宜人的自然环境中进行一些身体活动（物理环境）；并且，v）尽可能在闲暇时间或通过积极的旅行进行一些身体活动，尽可能优先选择个人选择进行的活动（领域）。
身体活动的类型、领域、身体和社会环境以及实施方式将决定心理健康结果。从业者可以使用这些建议来优化身体活动对心理健康的影响。
