Abstract
[Abstract] The objectives of the study were to identify physical self-concept profiles and examine their role in the intention to be physically active and emotional regulation. A sample of 606 physical activity practitioners (Mage= 34.19, SD= 13.05), completed a series of self-report measures that evaluated physical selfconcept, the intention to be physically active, and emotional regulation. Cluster analyzes revealed three profiles of physical self-concept. Profile b with relatively high physical self-concept experienced significant differences in intention to be physically active, self-blame, and positive reappraisal. Profile a with low physical self-concept showed significant differences in acceptance, rumination, and catastrophizing. Profile c with a very low physical self-concept revealed significant differences in blaming others. In conclusion, profile b with relatively high physical self-concept and with optimal scores in condition, attractiveness and strength is associated with a higher intention to be physically active and the use of functional emotional regulation strategies. [Resumen] Los objetivos del estudio fueron identificar perfiles de autoconcepto físico y examinar su rol sobre la intención de ser físicamente activo y la regulación emocional. Una muestra de 606 practicantes de actividad física (Medad= 34,19; DT= 13,05) completó una serie de medidas de autoinforme que evaluaban el autoconcepto físico, la intención de ser físicamente activo y la regulación emocional. Los análisis de conglomerados revelaron tres perfiles de autoconcepto físico. El perfil b con autoconcepto físico relativamente alto experimentó diferencias significativas en la intención de ser físicamente activo, autoculpa y reevaluación positiva. El perfil a con autoconcepto físico bajo mostró diferencias significativas en aceptación, rumiación y catastrofización. El perfil c con autoconcepto físico muy bajo reveló diferencias significativas en culpar a los demás. Como conclusión, el perfil b con autoconcepto físico relativamente alto está asociado con la mayor intencionalidad de ser físicamente activo y el uso de estrategias de regulación emocional funcionales.
