“…Ello exige la confluencia dinámica e interactiva de ciertos parámetros de naturaleza diversa. En primer lugar, no hay duda de que una percepción negativa de la edad adulta y el envejecimiento dificulta el establecimiento de hábitos saludables como la actividad física (AF) y su práctica en el conjunto de los comportamientos habituales (Faß et al, 2020;Tsitskari et al, 2023) hasta convertirse en hábitos sostenidos y saludables. La ausencia de una clara consciencia del proceso transformador que debemos asumir en cada periodo del ciclo vital y de la importancia que en ello tiene la AF, se puede convertir en dificultades para la salud y el bienestar (Caspi et al, 2005).…”

La sostenibilidad de la actividad física es un tema relacionado con la autoeficacia o la condición física como factores influyentes vinculados al comportamiento de actividad física. Los objetivos se centran en analizar qué tipo de relaciones transversales existen entre la condición física, la autoeficacia y expectativas de resultados con la actividad física en un grupo de 88 mujeres pertenecientes a la provincia de Córdoba con edad media de 53.85 años. Para evaluar la condición física se utilizó la batería de pruebas Senior Fitness Test (SFT); para la Autoeficacia se utilizó, la “Escala de Autoeficacia para el Ejercicio” (SEE) y para la Expectativas de resultado se utilizó la “Escala de Expectativas de Resultados para el Ejercicio” (OEE); para la AF se utilizó el Cuestionario Internacional de Actividad física (IPAQ). Los resultados mostraron que existen relaciones positivas entre los constructos de salud con la actividad física. En particular, existen relaciones entre la condición física general y la resistencia y la autoeficacia con la práctica de actividad física. Según los resultados expuestos, evaluar la condición física nos podría ayudar a conocer la práctica a medio y largo plazo, así como, evaluar la autoeficacia nos podría ayudar a conocer la práctica a corto y medio plazo de un grupo de mujeres adultas de mediana edad sin patología limitante, adscritas a diferentes programas de actividad física. Palabras clave: Actividad física, condición física, autoeficacia y expectativas de resultados, mujeres, adultez madura. Abstract. Sustainability of physical activity is a topic related to self-efficacy or physical fitness as influential factors linked to physical activity behaviour. The objectives are focused on analysing what kind of cross-sectional relationships exist between physical fitness, self-efficacy and expectations of results with physical activity in a group of 88 women from the province of Cordoba with an average age of 53.85 years. The Senior Fitness Test (SFT) test battery was used to assess physical fitness; the "Self-Efficacy for Exercise Scale" (SEE) was used for self-efficacy and the "Outcome Expectations for Exercise Scale" (OEE) was used for outcome expectations; the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) was used for physical activity. The results showed that there are positive relationships between the health constructs with physical activity. In particular, there are relationships between general physical fitness and endurance and self-efficacy with physical activity. According to the results presented, assessing physical fitness could help us to know the practice in the medium and long term, as well as assessing self-efficacy could help us to know the practice in the short and medium term of a group of middle-aged adult women without limiting pathology, attached to different physical activity programmes. Keywords: Physical activity, physical fitness, self-efficacy and outcome expectations, women, middle-aged adulthood.

“…There are other confounding factors at the health-behavioural level. For instance, regular physical activity, even for the chronically ill, is a protective factor against the development of depression, and it increases self-rated health in general (Faß, Pyun, & Schlesinger, 2020).…”

Does positive affect mediate the association of multimorbidity on depressive symptoms?

Objectives: Multimorbidity poses various challenges, and previous research has indicated a causal relation with depression. As multimorbidity is not curable, the underlying mechanisms are of great interest. Positive affect is a major resource for coping with chronic conditions and for the prevention of depression. Long-term multimorbidity, however, may deplete positive affect. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the role of positive affect in the association between multimorbidity and depressive symptoms. Method: We used four consecutive waves (2008, 2011, 2014, 2017) of the nationally representative German Ageing Survey (DEAS) with a total of 1,558 older adults aged 40 and over. To account for time-varying confounding, exposure-induced mediator-outcome confounding, and reciprocities, we applied the mediational g-formula with inverse-probability weighting techniques. We also tested for exposure-mediator interaction to adjust for differences in mediation across the duration of multimorbidity. Results: We confirmed a positive longitudinal relation between multimorbidity and depressive symptoms, both of which were negatively associated with while positive affect. The model without interaction indicated a share mediated of ca. 18.3% on the total effect of multimorbidity on depressive symptoms. Addition of interaction led to substantial differences for multimorbidity duration and levels of positive affect. Associations for long-term multimorbidity (at least two survey waves) were more substantial, and the share mediated doubled (>40%). Additionally, the direct effect of multimorbidity on depressive symptoms diminished for short-term multimorbidity. Conclusion: Strengthening positive affect could reduce depressive symptoms in those facing multimorbidity. This study also discusses methodological challenges in performing longitudinal mediation analysis. We advise researchers to consider the mediational g-formula and exposure-mediator interaction.

This article updates and extends an earlier meta-analysis (Westerhof et al., 2014) on the longitudinal effects of subjective aging (SA) on health outcomes. A systematic search in different databases (APA PsycInfo, PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus) resulted in 99 articles, reporting on 107 studies. Participants: Studies had a median sample size of 1,863 adults with a median age of 66 years. A randomized effect meta-analysis showed a significant, small effect (likelihood ratio = 1.347; 95% confidence interval [1.300, 1.396]; p < .001), similar in magnitude to the previous meta-analysis of 19 studies. Although the results showed high heterogeneity in the longitudinal link between SA and health outcomes, there were no differences in effects according to chronological age of participants, welfare state status (more or less developed social security system), length of follow-up, type of health-related outcome, or quality of the study. Effects were stronger for multiitem measures of self-perceptions of aging than for the frequently used single-item measures assessing subjective age, especially for indicators of physical health. Based on this meta-analysis, building on five times more studies than the 2014 review, we consider the associations of measures of SA with health and longevity across time as robust, albeit small in size. Future research should concentrate on the clarification of pathways mediating the relation between SA and health outcomes, as well as potential bidirectional effects.
