In the article Wierts, C.M., Zumbo, B.D., Rhodes, R.E., Faulkner, G., & Beauchamp, M.R. (2021). An examination of Dweck’s psychological needs model in relation to exercise-related well-being. Journal of Sport & Exercise Psychology, 43(4), 323–334. https://doi.org/10.1123/jsep.2021-0026, there was an error in the “Participants” section under the main heading “Part 2 Methods” at the bottom of page 327 and top of page of 328. An error was made wherein 4 of the 559 individuals were incorrectly coded on whether they completed Time 2 measures (N = 403) or dropped out of the study after completing Time 1 measures (n = 156). The correct individuals were included in all main analyses, and the error does not change any of the main results or conclusions of the study. The independent-sample t statistics used to compare dropouts and nondropouts on demographics (age, gender) and Time 1 predictors did slightly change after correcting the error. Originally, all comparisons were reported as statistically nonsignificant. After the correction was made, all comparisons, except for exercise identity, were nonsignificant. The online version of the article has been corrected.
The aim of this study was to apply the Multi-Process Action Control model to examine how the additions of regulatory and reflexive processes predict physical activity (PA) behaviors among adolescents. Our sample included 1,176 Grade 11 students (Mage = 15.85 ± 0.38) recruited from a large school board in Southern Ontario. Participants completed a questionnaire including measures of self-reported PA and PA cognitions derived from the Multi-Process Action Control model. Results found the reflective process explaining 16.5% of the variance in PA, with the additions of regulatory and reflexive processes significantly improving the explained variance by 5.1% and 8.2%, respectively. Final models revealed coping planning (estimate = 45.10, p = .047), identity (estimate = 55.82, p < .001), and habit (estimate = 64.07, p < .001) as significant predictors of PA. Findings reinforce the need for integrative models to better understand PA, with coping planning, habit formation, and development of an active identity to be salient targets for intervention during adolescence.
Badminton players have a plastic modification of their arm representation in the brain due to the prolonged use of their racket. However, it is not known whether their arm representation can be altered through short-term visuotactile integration. The neural representation of the body is easily altered when multiple sensory signals are integrated in the brain. One of the most popular experimental paradigms for investigating this phenomenon is the "rubber hand illusion." This study was designed to investigate the effect of prolonged use of a racket on the modulation of arm representation during the rubber hand illusion in badminton players. When badminton players hold the racket, their badminton experience in years is negatively correlated with the magnitude of the rubber hand illusion. This finding suggests that tool embodiment obtained by the prolonged use of the badminton racket is less likely to be disturbed when holding the racket.
