摘要
Participation motives were investigated in 81 Australian-born and 42 overseas-born older Australians (M age=67.8 yr.) involved in community-organised exercise programs. Australians born overseas scored significantly higher on factors of Affiliation/Personal. Recognition/Achievement, and Exercise involvement of the Participation Motivation Questionnaire but not on Fitness.
