Abstract

All levels of society are closely concerned about the progress and development of higher vocational college students, but in actual operation, many higher vocational college students still face huge difficulties and threats to their psychological and physical health. Therefore, effectively improving the overall physical fitness of higher vocational college students has become a key issue that needs to be dealt with urgently. According to the theory of planned behavior, this study established a mediation model with a moderating effect, including multiple influencing factors such as self-control ability and exercise self-efficacy, aiming to deeply explore the role of sports motivation in sports activities. At the same time, this study will also explore the differences in sports motivation, self-control ability, self-efficacy and other aspects among higher vocational college students in Kunming, Yunnan Province, China. To achieve this goal, this study will use questionnaire surveys to obtain relevant data extensively, and use descriptive statistics, independent sample t-tests, correlation analysis, regression analysis and other statistical methods to conduct in-depth discussions and analysis on the collected data. By doing this study, we hope to be able to give higher vocational college students better scientific and useful theoretical support and practical advice for their physical and mental health. This will help improve the overall quality of talent training in higher vocational colleges.
