Using the theory of planned behavior (TPB; Ajzen 1988, 1991) as a theoretical framework, the purpose of this study was to investigate the potential influence of health empowerment and level of frailty on intention to participate in physical activity among community-dwelling older adults. The Korean Health Empowerment Scale (K-HES) developed by Park and Park (2013) was used as a measure of health empowerment. The Tilburg Frailty Indicator (TFI; Gobbens et al., 2010b) and hand grip strength, as a measure of frailty, were used to assess level of frailty among study participants. Intention to participate in physical activity was measured using five items and following the guidelines established by Ajzen (1988; 2006) and Fishbein and Ajzen (2010). These self-report instruments, which also included demographics, were administered to community-dwelling older adults (N = 103) in Northwest Florida. Hand grip strength for all participants was assessed by trained research assistants.

Hand grip strength for all participants was assessed by trained research assistants.
520 $a Descriptive statistical analyses revealed a majority of participants were knowledgeable about the health benefits of physical activity and most participated in regular physical activity. Most participants were not frail (n = 75) and most had normal grip strength (n = 59). Most participants also indicated relatively strong intentions to participate in regular physical activity. A stepwise multiple regression revealed health empowerment significantly and positively (F(1,101) = 30.511, p < .001, R2 = .232, R2Adjusted = .224) predicted intention to participate in physical activity. Health empowerment explained 23.2% of the variance in participants' intentions to participate in physical activity. The contribution of hand grip strength, as a measure of frailty, on intention to participate in regular physical activity was not significant. Future research should continue to explore the potential associations between health empowerment and level of frailty and intention to participate in physical activity.
