简要总结
The primary purpose of this investigation is to examine the efficacy of virtual reality (VR) exercise (Supernatural exergaming via Meta Platforms Technologies, LLC) for improving well-being (i.e., vitality) over a 10-week period. The secondary purpose is to examine the efficacy of VR exercise for improving depression mood symptoms, anxiety mood symptoms, and perceived cognitive functioning over a 10-week period, as well as short-term mood (post-exercise) and affective experiences during exercise. The tertiarty purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy of VR exercise for improving both physical activity behaviour and physical activity motivation (attitudes, capability, opportunity, intentions, behavioural regulation, habit, identity) over a 10-week period. Another tertiary purpose is to examine whether key motivational variables (e.g., attitudes, capability, opportunity, intentions, behavioural regulation, habit, identity) regarding Supernatural use explain variability in Supernatural use over time.

结局指标
主要结局
Well-being: subjective vitality
时间窗: Baseline, week 5, week 10
Subjective vitality will be assessed using a six-item subjective vitality scale. Participants will respond to the six subjective vitality items on a seven point Likert-type scale anchored by 1 (not at all true) to 7 (very true). The six items will be mean scored (potential range 1-7), with higher scores reflecting higher subjective vitality and a more positive outcome.
