“…Reversal theory has been applied extensively to sport and exercise studies (e.g., Bindarwish & Tenenbaum, 2006; Frith, Kerr, & Wilson, 2011; Geisler & Kerr, 2007; Kerr, Fujiyama, & Campano, 2002; Kerr et al., 2006; Kerr, Kawaguchi, Oiwa, Terayama, & Zukawa, 2000; Kerr & Kuk, 2001; Kerr, Wilson, Bowling, & Sheahan, 2005; Kuroda, Thatcher, & Thatcher, 2011; Legrand & Thatcher, 2010; Thatcher, Kuroda, Legrand, & Thatcher, 2011). Within the exercise domain specifically, research has examined different types (Kerr & Svebak, 1994; Frith et al., 2011), intensities (Kerr & Kuk, 2001), and locations of exercise (Kerr et al., 2006) as well as differences in motivational dominance (Kerr et al., 2002). Regardless of variation in these variables, exercise participation has been shown to reduce unpleasant emotions and tension stress while increasing pleasant emotions and arousal.…”
