Summary

A new scale, the Outcome Expectations for Exercise (OEE) Scale, shows promise for measuring older adults' exercise beliefs. This tool can identify individuals needing support to improve exercise behavior.

Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Health Psychology
  • Behavioral Medicine

Background:

  • Outcome expectations are crucial for behavior change, particularly in older adults.
  • Existing measures may not adequately capture exercise-specific outcome expectations in this demographic.
  • Bandura's self-efficacy theory provides a framework for understanding these expectations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate the Outcome Expectations for Exercise (OEE) Scale for older adults.
  • To assess the reliability and validity of the OEE Scale in a sample of older individuals.
  • To provide a tool for identifying older adults with low exercise outcome expectations.

Main Methods:

  • The OEE Scale was developed based on existing theories and prior research.

  • Data were collected via face-to-face interviews with 175 residents of a continuing care retirement community.
  • Reliability and validity were assessed using internal consistency, structural equation modeling, confirmatory factor analysis, and correlational analyses.

    • Main Results:

    • The OEE Scale demonstrated good internal consistency (alpha = .89).
    • Confirmatory factor analysis supported the model fit (NFI = .99, RMSEA = .07).
    • Higher OEE scores were associated with regular exercise and higher self-efficacy (r = .66).

    Conclusions:

    • The OEE Scale shows initial support for reliability and validity in older adults.
    • Outcome expectations for exercise are linked to actual exercise behavior in this population.
    • The OEE Scale can identify older adults who may benefit from interventions to enhance exercise participation.
