Factor Predicting Physical Activity and Health Responsibility among Middle-Aged Staff of Tertiary Institutions in Sout-West, Nigeria

Abstract

Health responsibility enables an individual to achieve physical, mental, and social well-being. However, physical inactivity has become a global challenge, and that is why the World Health Organisation document for a global action plan on physical activity from 2018 to 2030, with the theme "More active people for a healthier world," is imperative. Physical activity and health responsibility are components of health-promoting behaviours that contribute to the overall health among various populations, including middle-aged staff. This study examined factors that predict physical activity and health responsibility among middle-aged staff of tertiary institutions in South-West, Nigeria.
