This year, Society of Behavioral Medicine‘s Physical Activity Special Interest Group published its Inaugural Fall Newsletter showcasing the research of its members. I discuss a manuscript in preparation focused on threat perceptions, worry, and exercise. The manuscript is being prepared using an archival data set- a national probability sample (R01 CA197351). The study explores relationships between threat perceptions (perceived susceptibility and severity of developing diabetes and colon cancer), worry, and exercise in U.S. adults. The results of this investigation will further our understanding of the relationships between attitudes, worry about illnesses, and exercise in U.S. adults.
