Short Description of your Research or Creative Project (700 characters or less)
This research aims to explore the efficacy of using Social Determination Theory (SDT) principles with an exercise program for individuals with disabilities. The SDT theoretical framework highlights the importance of social environments to support individuals' basic psychological needs such as autonomy, relatedness, and competence as it relates to exercise motivation. In the study, the researcher measured the exercise performance of an adult with a disability during a 6-week program hosted right here at Cal Poly Humboldt! The independent variables measured included walking, modified push-ups, and curl-ups. Special thanks to everyone who contributed to this programs success.
