Abstract

Although other correlates of physical activity among youth have not been clearly established, a growing literature has suggested that social-cognitive factors such as attitudes, social norms and self-efficacy influence the decision to become physically active among youth. The “yes i can” builds on existing prominent theoretical models employed to study physical activity determinants and provides a curriculum design framework for the development of specific fitness education programs in schools and other educational settings.
