Zusammenfassung. Der vorliegende Beitrag befasst sich mit Theorien und Diagnostik im Bereich Gesundheits- und Freizeitsport. Dabei wird auf Selbstkonzept, aktuelles Befinden, und Motivation eingegangen. Ein besonderes Anliegen in den letzten zehn Jahren war es, den Einfluss der Sportteilnahme auf das Selbst und umgekehrt zu untersuchen. Ergebnisse und Messinstrumente zum Selbstkonzept und zur Selbstwirksamkeit werden präsentiert. Weiterhin werden Theorien und Messinstrumente zum aktuellen Befinden vorgestellt, die auch heute noch kontrovers diskutiert werden. Determinanten und Theorien der Sportteilnahme sowie entsprechende Messinstrumente, der Forschungszweig mit der längsten Tradition, werden abschließend vorgestellt. Ein Ausblick auf zukünftige Forschungsfelder wird aus einer interkulturellen Perspektive gegeben.


Assessment in exercise psychology

Abstract. This article is concerned with theories and assessment in exercise psychology. A predominant concern during the last decade has been the influence of the self on participation in sport and physical exercise and vice versa. Results and instruments for measuring self-concept and self-efficacy are presented. Although the measurement of transient states, namely moods and affects, has a relatively long research tradition, it is still a controversial issue in exercise psychology. The determinants of participation in sport and exercise, motivational theories and the associated measurements, one of the oldest topics of research, are discussed briefly. Prospects for future research in exercise psychology are drawn from a cross-cultural perspective.
