Özet (Çeviri)

People know that physical activity is good for their health. However, just having this knowledge is not sufficient to motivate people to engage in regular physical activity. Current data shows that 52% of the U.S. population has chosen a lifestyle that is either sedentary or insufficiently active. Recently, behavioral scientists have been searching for better ways to motivate people's physical activity levels. Providing an immediate reward of donating for a charitable cause for physical activity behavior may be one way to increase motivation to engage in physical activity, and using social media to make one's physical activity public may be another motivational strategy. Thus, the purpose of this study was to investigate whether or not linking an exercise task to a charitable cause (earning money via cycling to be donated to a charity) influences the amount of effort expended in a single bout of exercise on a stationary exercise bike. Additionally, the effect of making exercise results public (e.g., posting on social media) on effort while cycling was examined. Results of this dissertation demonstrated that immediate rewards following an exercise bout increased motivation in terms of longer cycling minutes. Results suggest that incorporating attractive/trendy rewards such as social media posts and/or providing an opportunity to donate to a charity can be an effective way to promote physical activity.
