Application of social ecological model in the field of physical activity research
In the study of physical activity promotion, the traditional research overemphasizes the role of individual psychological factors and relatively ignores the role of environmental factors. The social ecological model, as a comprehensive and interdisciplinary framework, provides new ideas for the study of physical activity. This model comprehensively considers various levels of influencing factors of individuals and the environment: individual level, interpersonal level, organizational level, community level and policy level. This article reviews the evolution of the application of the model in the field of physical activity and the research progress at various levels in order to provide a theoretical reference for the future application of the model for physical activity correction.
