AnnotationThe purposes of this cross-sectional, correlation study were to explore the differences in perceived exercise barriers across three age groups of Taiwanese rural women (30-50, 51-70, and >70 years old), and to examine the associations between perceived exercise barriers and regular exercise behaviour. A total of 227 women completed the Self-Reported Exercise Behaviour and the Perceived Exercise Barrier Scale. Women older than 70 reported higher physical and psychological barriers and lower administrative barriers than did the younger group. Women who did not exercise regularly tended to have a higher perception of exercise barriers. (RH).
