Adherence Issues in Sport and Exercise pulls together a wide range
of current adherence themes to provide an overview of the many
different theoretical approaches currently being used. Each chapter
provides a theoretical framework and a range of practical
implications for professionals. Written by eminent experts from
Europe and North America, they discuss how adherence is affected by
a wide variety of personal, situational, and programme variables.

This volume is essential reading for sport and exercise
psychologists, exercise and health researchers and students of
health studies, sport science, physical education, leisure studies
and psychology.

"This text will be an excellent resource for scholars and
practitioners regarding the latest research on adherence issues
within sport and exercise settings. With contributions from leading
experts around the world, Steve Bull has pulled together a
comprehensive and inclusive review of predictors of adherence
behaviours in the broadest sense." Professor Joan L. Duda,
University of Birmingham

"This is a well-written and informative book of value to all in
the field of promotion of exercise for health improvement." Selwyn
Richards, Psychological Medicine, 2000, Vol 30

"Steve Bull has ably assembled a broad-based book, designed to
expand research and application to new areas in exercise and
sport." From the foreword by Rod K. Dishman
