The mediating effect of resilience between physical activity and mental health: a meta-analytic structural equation modeling approach.

ABSTRACT:

Background

While the correlation between physical activity (PA) and mental health is well known, the mediating mechanism of resilience between the two variables remains unclear.

Objectives

To systematically evaluate the relationship between PA and mental health, and explore the mediating role of resilience between them.

Methods

A systematic search of electronic databases (PubMed, Web of Science, ProQuest, Ebsco, China Knowledge, and China Biomedical Database) was conducted to identify relevant studies, and meta-analytic procedures were used to assess the strength of the relationships between PA and mental health. Furthermore, a meta-analytic structural equation model (MASEM) was used to assess the mediating effects of resilience, ensuring the reliability of our findin
