“…The strongest association between perceived behavioral control and intention agrees with previous results among cardiac people 13,19 , and other types of patients (diabetes and cancer) 22,[25][26] . However, Ajzen 9 , suggests that perceived behavioral control influences more the intention when the behavior is more voluntary.…”

“…Mean age of the sample was 58 years (range 30 to 79 years), 51.3% were men and 89.3% were white. At the time of hospitalization, 25.3% of the individuals perform any physical activity for at least 30 minutes a week in the six months preceding the cardiac event and 48.2% showed positive intent to practice. In multivariable analysis, the intention was associated with Perceived Behavioral Control, Perceived Risk and Habit.…”

The study measured the intention to engage in physical activities (PA) during hospital stay and Behavior after two months, as the factors associated to both outcomes in patients with coronary artery disease. A longitudinal study was conducted in adults diagnosed with coronary artery disease admitted to a reference cardiology hospital, in southern Brazil. The sample was composed by 150 men and women interviewed twice, first during hospital stay and, later, two months after hospital leave. A questionnaire was administered to evaluate demographics, socioeconomics, behavioral and nutritional variables. Psychosocial variables of the Theory of Planned Behavior were also assessed. Mean age of the sample was 58 years (range 30 to 79 years), 51.3% were men and 89.3% were white. At the time of hospitalization, 25.3% of the individuals perform any physical activity for at least 30 minutes a week in the six months preceding the cardiac event and 48.2% showed positive intent to practice. In multivariable analysis, the intention was associated with Perceived Behavioral Control, Perceived Risk and Habit. The prevalence of physical activity two months after hospital discharge was 38.8% and the intention was the only variable determinant of behavior. Actions aiming at behavior change must focus on psychosocial aspects while patients are still in the hospital to improve secondary prevention of coronary by adopting an active behavior.

Estudo longitudinal foi conduzido em adultos diagnosticados com a doença arterial coronariana internados em um hospital de referência em cardiologia, no sul do Brasil. A amostra foi composta por 150 homens e mulheres os quais foram entrevistadas duas vezes, primeiro durante a internação e, mais tarde , dois meses após alta hospitalar.

“…Response options to this question included: (0) not at all, (1) approximately once a month, (2) approximately two or three times a month, (3) approximately once a week, (4) approximately twice a week, (5) approximately three times a week, (6) approximately four times a week, and (7) five times or more per week. Even though this variable could be considered ordinal or categorical, we chose to consider it as continuous, as recommended by Pasta (2009) and as done in prior research by Boudreau and Godin (2009, 2014). In addition to their level of participation in leisure-time PA over the past three months, participants were questioned about their observance of PA recommendations for T2D.…”

Using self-determination theory, the aim of this study was to examine motivational profiles toward physical activity among adults with type 2 diabetes and how these profiles predict physical activity. In total, 381 adults with type 2 diabetes (188 or 49.3% women, M age = 61.39, SD = 7.29) completed a questionnaire assessing their physical activity motivation and behavior. First, results of a multiple regression analysis showed that intrinsic and identified motives were positively associated with leisure-time physical activity over the past three months while results of a multivariate analysis of covariance revealed that higher levels of intrinsic and identified motives were associated with observing physical activity recommendations for type 2 diabetes (i.e. practicing 150 min of moderate to vigorous physical activity per week). Then, results of a cluster analysis distinguished four distinct motivational profiles: selfdetermined, controlled, moderate, and non-self-determined. Participants reporting the highest physical activity participation level and observing physical activity recommendations were more likely to present a self-determined profile. The present study highlights the benefits of using both a variable-centered and a motivational profile approach. They also highlight the importance of examining the type of motivation associated with physical activity practice among adults with type 2 diabetes since autonomous forms of motivation positively influence both the frequency of leisure-time physical activity and the observance of physical activity recommendations for type 2 diabetes.

“…The fi rst questionnaire (T1) contained scales measuring past and current moderate PA frequency (adapted from Godin & Shephard, 1997), intention and PBC toward PA (3 and 6 items, Boudreau & Godin, 2009). At the end of this questionnaire, each participant was randomly assigned to one of the following conditions: a) a control group with no induced planning, b) a group forming AcP only and c) a group forming both AcP and CP.…”

Being the first, we hope it to be a milestone in highlighting the effort spent by different psychological approaches to understand the role played by time concepts in individual, group, and organizational development .The Conference was jointly organized by the "Instituto de Psicologia Cognitiva, Desenvolvimento Vocacional e Social" (Institute for Cognitive Psychology, Vocational and Social Development), a R & D unit based at the University of Coimbra, and the "Groupe de Recherche en Psycologie Sociale -GrePS", a R&D unit based at the University of Lyon, France . It was hosted by the Faculty of Psychology and Education of the University of Coimbra (Portugal), the oldest University in Portugal (its foundation goes back to 1290), and an institution for which the notions of a rich past history and future strategic planning constitute the cornerstones of today's concerns . In a moment in time where the past, the present and the future are intensively invested with meaning and intention, researchers coming from all over the world reflected on how time perspectives impact on our lives, from our more proximal to our most distal socio-ecological contexts . It reunited more than 300 participants coming from 42 countries spread all over the 5 continents .During three intense but exciting days, senior and junior researchers exchanged and questioned emerging and well established concepts, reflecting upon diverse and joint projects, and prepared the path for future developments .We can undoubtedly say that the organization of this conference was a timely one, once there has lately been a renewed interest, as well as a series of academic initiatives, dedicated to the understanding of specific aspects of individual, group, and social behavior through the study of its core temporal dimensions .The study of subjective temporality or Time Perspective (TP) has been going on since K . Lewin defined it as "the totality of the individual's view of his psychological future and psychological past existing at a given time" (1951, p . 75), and it has encompassed several topics in various psychological domains . The chapters that are included in this book are a good illustration of the multifaceted focus on the research of subjective time in the psychological science . Taking this diversity into account, the editors opted to organize the contributions into six parts, corresponding to the following broad scientific domains:Part 1 -Time Perspective and human development: adaptive functioning and risk behaviors across the life-span . This part includes 8 chapters presenting the role played by TP, both in the normative developmental path from birth to death and in more deviant patterns of behavioral functioning in childhood, adolescence and adulthood . 0Part 2 -The relationships of personality and affective processes with Time Perspective, includes 4 chapters that address the relations among psychological personality traits and more dynamic affective processes with several subjective temporality dimensions .Part 3 -Time Perspective, health an...
