This study investigated body awareness as an affect determinant of university students based on the behavior changes of their exercise situation. The survey was conducted with 403 students from private universities (229 men, 174 women ; at age 19.1±2.5 years) in the Tokyo metropolitan area. The survey contents assessed behavior changes for exercise, and body awareness of that affect. The findings were as follows : (1) Body awareness differed according to the behavior changes in exercise. (2) The students who had high body awareness expressed positive affect when they recalled the exercise situation. (3) It is necessary to choose a strategy that considers behavior changes in exercise and body awareness, even when using a cognitive strategy for exercise adherence.
