Background: Low-level physical activity (PA) among Chronic Low Back Pain (cLBP) is associated with various biopsychosocial factors, and PA is effective in the domains of quality of life (QoL). Objectives: This research aimed to study the predictors of physical activity behavior among cLBP patients referred to comprehensive health service centers in the Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences (SBUMS) in Tehran, Iran. Methods: In the present study 280 eligible patients with cLBP who referred to comprehensive health service centers in the SBUMS in Tehran, Iran from 13 January to 11 March 2019 were random selected. To diagnose the predictors of PA behavior, all the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) constructs were examined as risk factors to see if they influence on the probability of PA behavior occurrence and were interpreted through odds ratio (OR). SPSS version 21 was used to analyze the data. Results: Totally 280 cLBP patients with mean age of 57.07 ±13.09 years old participated in the study. This study showed that intention was significant predictor for perform the PA behavior OR (%95CI): 1.431(1.148-1.714), p-value <0.001), behavior beliefs could predictor for attitude OR (%95CI): 1.276(1.112-1.427), p-value= <0.001). attitude, normative beliefs, subjective norm ,and evaluation outcome behavior could predictors the cLBP patients for intention to perform the PA behavior OR (%95CI): 1.189(1.033-1.367), p-value=0.016)., OR (%95CI): 1.158(1.08-2.208), p-value<0.001) ., OR (%95CI):1.104(1.08-1.128), p-value=0.003) ., OR (%95CI): 0.814(0.74-1.554), p-value<0.001), but motivation to comply could predict the cLBP patients for subjective norm OR (%95CI): 1.077(0.891-1.263), p-value=0.093). Conclusion: This study showed that the cLBP patients who were normative beliefs and evaluation regarding PA behavior could effect on the intention to engage in greater PA than those with other constructs.

Background: Low-level physical activity (PA) among Chronic Low Back Pain (cLBP) is associated with various biopsychosocial factors. This research aimed to study the predictors of PA behavior among cLBP patients.

This study showed that motivation to comply significant predictor the cLBP patients for subjective norm OR (%95CI): 2.095(0.116-2.792), p-value<0.001), intention was significant predictor for perform the PA behavior OR (%95CI): 1.431(0.138-1.538), p-value <0.001), behavior beliefs could predictor for attitude OR (%95CI): 1.276(0.106-1.355), p-value= 0.002). attitude, normative beliefs, subjective norm ,and evaluation outcome behavior could predictors the cLBP patients for intention to perform the PA behavior OR (%95CI): 1.188(0.032-1.312), p-value<0.001)., OR (%95CI): 1.158(0.076-2.208), p-value=0.003) ., OR (%95CI): 1.104(0.076-1.128), p-value<0.001) ., OR (%95CI): 0.814(0.301-1.440), p-value=0.007). Conclusions: This study showed that the cLBP patients who were normative beliefs and evaluation regarding PA behavior could effect on the intention to engage in greater PA than those via other constructs (attitude and subjective norm).

“…Unfortunately, those with physical disabilities face numerous barriers to participating in sports and PA, including impaired body functions and limited ability to perform daily tasks [ 35 ], unsupportive environments (e.g., limited local activity options, lack of access to transportation, and lack of information on accessible community-based sport and active recreational programming) [ 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 ], and lack of parental support [ 3 ]. As the TPB is closely related to the individuals’ beliefs about the presence of barriers that may prevent performance of the behaviour, examining the direct role of these specific barriers within the TPB framework could be a suitable way to address this challenge [ 41 ]. In this respect, the study uses a model of social construction of disability to capture barriers to sport and physical activities.…”

The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore the beliefs of Chinese children with physical disabilities engaging in sports and physical activity (PA), and the impact of the Paralympic Games on these beliefs. Five Chinese children with physical disabilities (female = 2, male = 3) were recruited for participating in the workshops of the Paralympic Games and PA, and received individual semi-structured interviews before and after the workshop implementations. Interview transcripts were analysed and presented as descriptive summaries. Three themes emerged based on the analysis of the participants’ interview data: (1) shocked, knowledgeable, and useful; (2) willingness to try, and (3) hope to obtain support. Results indicated that children with physical disabilities in this study acknowledged the positive outcomes of participating in the workshops of the Paralympic Games on the sports and PA engagement attitude change. However, children with disabilities also expressed that they need more related knowledge and information. The results of the study revealed that impairment and contextual factors (i.e., lack of support from family and physical education teachers, unsafe environments, and negative attitudes of peers without disabilities) were barriers to sports and PA engagement among children with physical disabilities in this study.
