Factors Associated with Older Adults' Exercise Self-efficacy: Basis for Exercise Program in Bincheng District of Binzhou City, China

Abstract Various chronic diseases are prevalent with the aging population. It is common among older individuals to have decline in movements that often lead to diminish inclination and capacity to exercise. Hence, this study sought to determine the influencing factors concerning older adults’ exercise as to socio-clinical factors and environmental factors, and their relationship with the older adults’ self-efficacy for exercise (OD-SEE) score. The socio-clinical factors referred to their intrinsic determinants such as age, sex, highest educational attainment, family monthly income, family type, morbidity, and body mass index classification. Environmental factors referred to their extrinsic determinants such as social support system and physical environment. An analytical cross-sectional study design was employed to 383 respondents in Bincheng District of Binzhou City, China using OD-SEE scale survey tool. Results show that in terms of socio-clinical factors, variables age, highest educational attainment, family monthly income, and family type exhibited significant differences. Variance was also observed in terms of the social support system. Thereby, findings of this study provide a solid foundation and baseline to standardize future exercise self-efficacy intervention programs among the senior citizens not only in this locale in China, but even in Asian countries with similar characteristics.
