Based on the view that regular exercise can improve the evaluation of body image for female, this study aims to explore the relationship between female aerobic dancers' exercise participation and body satisfaction, and to further examine the mediating effect of self-presentation. This study was a cross-sectional survey design, using convenience sampling method to select adult women from the fitness center as participants, a total of 200, with an average age of 37 (SD = 8.31) years old. After informed consent was obtained, participants were requested to fill out a questionnaire regarding background, exercise participation, self-presentation, and body satisfaction. Structural equation modeling and bootstrap method were utilized for data analysis. The results showed that there is a significant linear structural relationship among exercise participation, self-presentation, and body satisfaction. Self-presentation partially mediated the relationships between exercise participation and body satisfaction. It was concluded that in the process of improving the body shape of women through regular exercise, the influence of self-presentation must be considered. That is, if women use impression management as the motivation for involvement, the effect of regular exercise on body satisfaction will be more significant. |
