Abstract

Effect of morning exercise on the psychological well-being of high school female students

Author(s): Ali Barbar

It seems necessary to have a better and more accurate recognition of the strategies affecting the students’ psychological well-being level in order to enhance their mental health. There have been few studies in this respect, hence considering the effective role of physical activities on mental well-being and also the ways one can improve the students’ psychological well-being state, it becomes clear that the need for a proper research is inevitable. Seventy students were randomly chosen. After answering the health and physical activities questionnaire and psychological well-being questionnaire, were divided into two groups of control and experimental. The heights, weights and the BMIs of the subjects were also measured. The subjects did a selected aerobic exercise accompanied by music for seven days. After the sessions, the psychological well-being questionnaire was answered again by the control and experimental groups. The results show that morning exercise has a meaningful effect on the psychological well-being of the students. Also, the morning exercise, has meaningful effect on psychological wellbeing micro scales, such as environmental mastery, autonomy, positive relations with others, self-acceptance, and purpose in life, but it has no meaningful effect on personal growth.
