One of the most consistent beliefs regarding the influence of physical activity participation on psychological outcomes has been that regular participation can have a positive influence on self-esteem (Sonstroem, 1984). Research examining this relationship has, until recently, been simplistic in nature and has fallen short of determining the mechanisms by which exercise participation leads to self-esteem change (Sonstroem & Morgan, 1989). Research examining the relationship has been limited to investigating changes through only the physical self-system. Recent work has emphasized that exercise settings can be highly social in nature (Crawford & Eklund, 1994) yet the influence of the social environment has yet to be studied with reference to global self-perceptions. Therefore, the purpose of the present investigation was to replicate previous research and also to extend previous work through the consideration of the social self-system in the exercise, self-esteem relationship.

520 $a Using a population of 427 undergraduate kinesiology students, it was determined that physical activity participation was related indirectly to self-esteem through both physical as well as social self-perceptions. The results suggest that the relationship between exercise and self-esteem is more complicated than previously considered and warrants further investigation. The findings of this investigation support that validity of an expanded model of the exercise, self-esteem relationship that includes both physical and social influences. The results are discussed in terms of practical applications such as exercise adherence, public health and physical activity promotion.
