本研究的主要目的在暸解規律運動對健康促進效果的影響，並以台灣地區相關研究論文為析論主體，從中探討「規律運動」的定義層面、受試對象、人口統計變項、實驗設計及理論模式之建立等因素。通過對相關研究的分析比較後，可暸解各論文對「規律運動」定義與解釋的差別程度，並經由定義的清楚界定以避免因研究者過渡推論而導致對健康促進效益產生誤解；另外，亦可提供個人日後從事運動或國家政策推行時之參考依據，進而提升生活品質。 　　綜觀相關研究論文中對「規律運動」的定義是採用問卷調查、運動介入或三日回憶法等方式產生，之後再對照學者的定義加以分類。而研究的範圍與內容則包含有以運動行為來驗證理論模式（如理性行動理論、健康信念模式、計畫行為理論、自我效能與社會支持等）、體適能發展、個人背景因素（如性別、年齡、教育程度、婚姻狀況、工作年資與時間、經濟、子女數與家庭型態等)、疾病預防（如血液生化值、糖尿病與憂鬱症等）、社會角色扮演（如配偶或父母親等）、相關影響因素（如運動性質、地點、前往方式、重要他人、需時與花費等）及其他（如睡眠品質與孕婦分娩過程等）。本研究透過上述內容之分析比較後，希望能釐清並提供國人對運動的正確認知與建議，以減少運動參與的障礙，並建立本土化研究的特色。

　　The main purpose of this research is to realize the influence that the regular exercise may have on the health promotion. The research is also based on the related in Taiwan area to discuss the elements of the definition of the regular exercise, tested subjects, factors of changing population, experimental design, and the construction of the theory model. The different levels between different researches to the definition and the explanation of the regular exercise can be realized after comparing the related researches, and the misunderstanding toward the effect of health promotion caused by over- induced researchers can be avoided by defining a clear definition. Moreover, it can also provide references for the purpose of personal exercise and national policies to increase the quality of lives. 　　The definitions that the related researches have for the regular exercise are decided by questionnaire collection, exercise intervention, or three-day recalling etc. Then they are assorted according to scholars' or researchers' definitions. The contents of the research include the test of the theory model by the way of exercise behavior (such as the theory of reasoned action, health belief model, the theory of planned behavior, self efficacy, and social support,) developments of physical fitness, factors of personal background (such as sex, age, educational level, marital status, years and lengths of working, economic situation, number of children, and family style,) prevention of illness (such as blood biochemical values, diabetics, and depression,) play of social roles (such as spouses, or parents,) factors of related influence (such as exercise style, location, the way to go, other important persons, time, and the cost,) and others (such as sleep quality, and the procedure of maternal delivery.) I hope this research can provide everyone the correct recognition and' suggestion of exercise to decrease the obstacles of exercise participation and to develop and build the characteristics of the local research.
