Group Dynamics and Physical Activity Lab

Vision

Research at the Wilfrid Laurier Group Dynamics in Physical Activity Laboratory is currently aimed at enhancing our understanding of group and social influences on cognitive, behavioural, and affective factors related to physical activity in group contexts. 

Specific Objectives

To understand...

1. How physical activity group membership influences individual cognition, affect, and behaviour.

2. What makes groups effective in terms of achieiving their task and social objectives.

3. How to apply this knowledge to promote physical activity behaviour through group membership.
