Culture in Physical Activity: The Contribution of Basic Psychological Needs and Goal Orientation

Abstract: Numerous variables affect motivation in physical activity (PA) with culture being an understudied variable.

“…An investigation into physical activity behaviors across cultures, utilizing self-determination theory and goal orientation, compared autonomy and relatedness in the US and Turkey, finding cultural differences impact physical activity motivations.
