Perspectives on physical activity from people with Parkinson’s disease who do not engage
This research supports existing findings on the impact of interpersonal, social support, environment, and disease-related factors on engagement. However, it also highlights the potential role of self-identity in influencing the type, level, and sustainability of physical activity engagement. Approaches to promoting activity based on an individual's self-identity may be beneficial.
