Using an evaluative priming procedure, this study tested whether automatic evaluations of running differ among groups based on their amount of exercise and whether they were runners or not. Ninety-five participants (26 ± 5.06 years; 46% female) were divided into five groups: an inactive group, active exercisers, highly active exercisers, active runners, and highly active runners. A priming effect score was calculated based on the concept of response facilitation or inhibition: the reaction is faster when the target and prime are valence congruent and becomes slower if they are incongruent. The highly active runner group differed significantly from the inactive group (p < .01) and from the active exerciser group (p < .05). Furthermore, reflective evaluations were measured via questionnaires. The results show that priming effect scores can detect automatic evaluations of running, and they differ not only because of the amounts of physical exercise but also because of their preferred type of exercise.

这项研究使用评估启动程序，测试了各组对跑步的自动评估是否因运动量和是否跑步而有所不同。95 名参与者（26 ± 5.06 岁；46% 女性）被分为五组：不活跃组、活跃锻炼者、高度活跃锻炼者、活跃跑步者和高度活跃跑步者。启动效应分数是根据反应促进或抑制的概念计算的：当靶标和启动物价态一致时反应较快，如果它们不一致则反应变慢。高度活跃的跑步者组与不活跃组 ( p  < .01) 和活跃锻炼者组 ( p  < .05) 存在显着差异。此外，通过问卷调查来衡量反思性评价。结果表明，启动效应分数可以检测跑步的自动评估，它们的不同不仅因为体育锻炼的量，还因为他们喜欢的运动类型。
