TL;DR: An extended trans-contextual model of motivation for health-related physical activity was tested in samples from four nations, which provides an explanation of the processes by which perceived autonomy support from different sources affects health- related physical activity motivation across these contexts.

TL;DR: Those with severely limited mobility more often reported poor health, fear and negative experiences, lack of company, and an unsuitable environment as barriers to exercise than did those with no mobility limitation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss physical activity and sports participation in a life-course framework, long-term tracking, determinants, and correlates of physical activity from childhood to old age, and present possible causal links and pathways for the continuity of physical activities.

TL;DR: Results support the implementation intention component of the intervention in reducing alcohol drinking in excess of guideline limits among Estonian and UK undergraduates and support the motivational intervention or the interaction between the strategies.

TL;DR: It is concluded that past physical activity is strongly connected to maintaining a high level of physical activity in old age regardless of chronic conditions that may develop.
