This study examined the relationship between past and present cognitive, social, and environmental factors and the current self-reported vigorous physical activity levels of 195 first-year university health-sciences students following their transition from secondary school to tertiaty education. A direct multiple regression analysis found that 31% of the variance in current levels of vigorous physical activity was explained by these factors. Hierarchical regression analysis indicated that both proximal (current) and distal (historical) variables contributed to the explanation of variation in physical activity levels. Perceived self-efficacy for vigorous activity and perceived obstacles had the highest association with activity levels. |
