The relationships between body mass and body image and relative autonomy for exercise among adolescent males and females (2007, methodology): “With respect to exercise, research has shown that more autonomous forms of behavioural regulation are associated with greater participation in physical activity in a variety of contexts (e.g., Mullan & Markland, 1997; Wilson et al., 2003; Wilson, Rodgers, & Fraser, 2002).”
Exercise, physical activity, and self-determination theory: A systematic review (2012, unknown): “BIV: ID (+), INTR (−) Wilson et al., 2003 [58] Experimental (12wk) 53 (83) Adults (Mean 41.8 yr; BMI: 19.9 ± 3.0 kg/m2) Canada Exercise self-regulations (BREQ) MV: IM (+), ID (+) Self-reported exercise (LTEQ) Bivariate correlations; Multiple regression analysis.”
Need Satisfaction Supportive Game Features as Motivational Determinants: An Experimental Study of a Self-Determination Theory Guided Exergame (2012, background): “Research also showed that need satisfaction of competence was positively associated with more self-determined exercise regulations, which was also positively correlated with exercise behavior, attitudes, and physical fitness (Wilson, Rodgers, Blanchard, & Gessell, 2003).”
Social physique anxiety and physical activity: a self-determination theory perspective. (2009, result): “In contrast, findings of a non-significant link between relatedness and motivation, similar to the current study, have focused on exercise contexts (Edmunds et al., 2006; Wilson, Rodgers, Blanchard, & Gessell, 2003 ).”
A test of self-determination theory in the exercise domain (2006, background): “In addition, the current research, like previous studies in this area (e.g., Wilson et al., 2002, 2003; Wilson & Rodgers, 2004), incorporated only a self-reported measure of physical activity.”
Capacity of Mass Participant Sport Events for the Development of Activity Commitment and Future Exercise Intention (2011, background): “The motives are good predictors of future exercise participation ( Wilson, Rodgers, Blanchard, & Gessell, 2003 ).”
The Role of Self-compassion in Women's Self-determined Motives to Exercise and Exercise-related Outcomes (2010, unknown): “Evidence of convergent and discriminant validity has been supported across several studies (eg, Mullan et al, 1997 ; Vallerand & Fortier, 1998 ; Wilson, Rodgers, Blanchard, & Gesell, 2003 ; Wilson, Rodgers, & Fraser, 2002 ).”
A Modification to the Behavioural Regulation in Exercise Questionnaire to Include an Assessment of Amotivation (2004, background): “Wilson, Rodgers, Blanchard, and Gesell (2003) found further evidence for the convergent, discriminant, and predictive validity of the BREQ in relation to conceptually related scales, exercise behavior, and physical fitness in a longitudinal study.”
