Title: Impression management and the selection of scenarios for physical exercising for women
Abstract: The author examined the effects of impression management on the selection of scenarios for physical ex-ercising for women in two steps.In the first step,the author examined the effects of impression management on the feeling of women towards material scenarios for physical exercising,and revealed the following findings: partici-pants with a high level of impression construction are usually more sensitive to material environments,while par-ticipants with a higher level of impression motive are usually not sensitive to material environments in scenarios for physical exercising.In the second step,the authors examined action strategies made by women on the basis of feel-ing scenarios for physical exercising,and revealed the following findings: participants with a high level of impres-sion motive tend to select group events;women with a high level of impression construction and impression motive tend to select a physical exercising position near to the coach;physical exercisers with a high level of impression construction expect more audience,while physical exercisers with a high level of impression motive prefer fewer audience;perception that forms clues of the impression of others cannot predict the degree of sensitivity of women to material environments in scenarios for physical exercising as well as corresponding strategies for reac-tion.
