Why are some people physically active and others not? This program examines the social-ecological model and its four main categories of factors that influence participation in physical activity: individual; social environment; physical environment; and policy and organizational. With comments from Deakin University’s Dr. Helen Brown, this is an ideal resource for senior secondary / college-level students of health, physical education and allied disciplines.
