Impact from physical exercises on the body self-esteem among professional women

In the context of the body self-esteem (BSE), the previous study has proved that it was a potential factor to reflect the psychological efficacy of physical exercises (PE). This study examined the practical efficacy of PE and specific factors which affected the BSE among professional women. In our study PSPP and BES was employed to test the BSE of 1000 professional women served as subject. Oneway ANOVA Analysis indicated that PE frequency, time and intensity are all important contributing factors to the abstract and concrete BSE of professional women. Spearman´s Correlation Coefficient Analysis also showed that the above three factors are positively relative to the abstract and concrete BSE. Among them, frequency factor has the best correlations. Conclusions were given as well as some suggestions: PE frequency contributes the most to the professional women´s BSE; exercising 30 min or more each time with medium or above intensity helps the professional women effectively improve their BSE.
