In Brief This article reviews the published studies in the physical activity domain, which include novel hypothesis from our laboratory, that have tested Rogers' Protection Motivation Theory. Across the various population groups, the theory's coping appraisal is generally supported; however, there is limited support for the theory's threat components. Implications of these findings are discussed from both theoretical and practical perspectives. This paper presents our lab's novel hypotheses in the Protection Motivation Theory in the physical activity domain and reviews the 14 studies, which have tested the domain.
