“…Despite the recognition that PA can yield health and well-being benefits, observational studies have reported that the majority of transplant recipients do not meet the general recommended PA guidelines (Clark et al, 2012;Dontje et al, 2014), suggesting that there is a need to better understand organ transplant recipients' experiences of engaging with PA. Sánchez et al's (2007) survey helped inform van Adrichem et al's (2016) qualitative study, which revealed several commonly reported barriers (e.g., physical limitations, insufficient energy level, fear, and comorbidities) and facilitators, for example, coping, consequences of (in)activity, routine/habit, goals/goal priority, and responsibility for the transplanted organ, to PA. In addition, Johnson et al (2013) analyzed questionnaire data from participants at one World Transplant Games event, and concluded that perceived competence, enjoyment, and health were critical psychological factors in the experience of PA that ultimately led to a sense of psychological well-being for participants.…”
