Frequency, intensity and duration of exercise were assessed and then combined to produce the dependent variable (exercise behavior).

A positive correlation was observed between total self-efficacy and the exercise behavior measure (r =.3567, p $<$.001) as well as between the exercise behavior measure and the exercise barriers efficacy measure (r =.6727, p $<$.001). The exercise barriers efficacy measure was found to be the most significant predictor of exercise behavior (R$\\sp2$ =.270, p $<$.001) although total self-efficacy was also found to be a significant predictor of exercise behavior (R$\\sp2$ =.180, p $<$.005).","Since exercise barriers efficacy was found to be the most predictive of exercise behavior, it was suggested that perceived barriers be assessed of all graduates of the formal program (Phase II) and periodically of those enrolled in Phase III.
