  • Moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) is crucial for health, especially for individuals with mental illnesses who often experience higher risks of diseases due to lower activity levels and increased sedentary behavior (SB).
  • The study analyzed how different types of motivation (amotivation, controlled, autonomous) affect MVPA and SB among people with various mental health conditions across four countries using self-reported and accelerometer data.
  • Results showed that autonomous motivation significantly increased MVPA, while amotivation and controlled motivation reduced it; controlled motivation was linked to increased SB, highlighting the need for health professionals to encourage autonomous motivation for better physical activity outcomes in this population.
