Knowing about a risk factor is not sufficient to ensure corresponding behaviour as additional psychological factors play a role. Self-efficacy is one of the major factors. This also applies to physical activity and exercise behaviour, which is a major public health topic in both primary and secondary prevention. The amount of research on self-efficacy in exercise behaviour is high yet remains uncharted. This protocol presents the research design for two systematic evidence maps on self-efficacy in exercise behaviour in (1) primary prevention and (2) secondary prevention. These maps will thus provide a comprehensive overview over the current state in published empirical research as a starting point for future researchers.
The databases Medline (via PubMed) and PsycINFO (via EbscoHost) will be searched using the search terms 'self-efficacy' and any of the search terms 'sport' and 'exercise' in titles and abstracts. All empirical research studies which have measured self-efficacy in relation to exercise behaviour will be included. The primary prevention systematic evidence map will aggregate all studies on healthy humans and the secondary prevention systematic evidence map will include all studies on humans with a pre-existing condition. We will extract and present the data points authors, title, year, sample size (N), age groups, surveyed sport and method of measuring self-efficacy in both systematic evidence maps. Moreover, we will extract and present the target group in the systematic evidence map on primary prevention and the pre-existing condition in the systematic evidence map on secondary prevention. In addition to a data table, we will create freely accessible evidence maps in the form of graphs.
Since this is a protocol, an ethics approval is not required for the presented and planned work. The results of the two systematic evidence maps will be disseminated via publication in international peer-reviewed journals. In addition, data will be shared in detail via the Open Science Framework platform.
了解风险因素并不足以确保相应的行为，因为其他心理因素也会起作用。自我效能感就是其中一个主要因素。这同样适用于身体活动和锻炼行为，这是初级和二级预防中主要的公共卫生课题。关于锻炼行为自我效能感的研究数量很多，但仍未得到充分探索。本研究方案介绍了两个关于（1）初级预防和（2）二级预防中锻炼行为自我效能感的系统证据图的研究设计。这些地图将提供已发表的实证研究现状的综合概述，作为未来研究人员的起点。
将使用“自我效能”和“运动”和“锻炼”这两个搜索词中的任何一个在标题和摘要中搜索数据库 Medline（通过 PubMed）和 PsycINFO（通过 EbscoHost）。所有测量与锻炼行为相关的自我效能感的实证研究都将被包括在内。初级预防系统证据图将汇总所有关于健康人群的研究，而二级预防系统证据图将包括所有有预先存在疾病的人群的研究。我们将从这两个系统证据图中提取并呈现作者、标题、年份、样本量（N）、年龄组、调查的运动项目和测量自我效能感的方法的数据点。此外，我们将从初级预防系统证据图中提取并呈现目标人群，从二级预防系统证据图中提取并呈现预先存在的疾病。除了数据表外，我们还将以图表的形式创建免费访问的证据图。
由于这是一个方案，因此不需要对提出和计划的工作进行伦理批准。两个系统证据图的结果将通过在国际同行评议期刊上发表来传播。此外，还将通过开放科学框架平台详细共享数据。
