运动促进心理健康的研究进展:基于方法的视角

目前，有关运动促进心理健康的研究仍方兴未艾。但学者们关注的主题、采用的范式和方法不尽一致，研究结论不确定、不一致甚至相互矛盾的现象也仍然存在。该综述旨在通过分析运动促进心理健康研究的现状和存在的问题，探讨这一研究领域的发展方向。既往有关运动促进心理健康的研究主要是行为学层面的分析，虽然研究者也试图揭示出运动促进心理健康的机理，但囿于研究方法和手段的限制，难于揭示出运动与心理健康间的因果关系。当下探讨运动促进心理健康的大脑神经机制的研究越来越多。这不仅助于厘清运动促进心理健康的脑机制，也可以促进行为学层面的相关研究。但运动促进心理健康的大脑神经机制研究也还面临着挑战。

Advances of Physical Activity Promoting Mental Health from Method Based Perspective

The researches onto physical activity in promoting mental health are still unfolding. There are no accepted paradigms for the researches. Some conclusions of the studies were undetermined, inconsistent and even contradictory. The aim of this review was to reveal how physical activity affected mental health through analyzing the problems and challenges in the domain, pointing out the development directions of the research in this field. In the past, the paradigm of the researches was behavioral analysis. Although researchers had attempted to reveal the nature and law of physical activity promoting mental health, the conclusions were difficult to reach due to the restriction of study methods. Recently, there have been more and more researches related to the brain mechanisms of physical activity promoting mental health including brain mechanism research, behavioral research even though there exist challenges in revealing the brain mechanisms of physical activity promoting mental health.
