Araştırma, kontrol ve deney grubundan oluşmaktadır. Haftada 3 gün 1 saat Bosu, Zumba ve Pilates egzersizleri yapan 54 kadın (Xyaş=30.63±4.47 yıl) deney grubunu oluşturmuştur. Kontrol grubu ise düzenli spor yapmayan 39 kadından (Xyaş=27.21±5.74 yıl) oluşmuştur. Ölçümler için kısaltılmış proaktif kişilik ölçeği, öznel mutluluk ölçeği, iyilik hali ölçeği ve öznel zindelik ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Verilerin analizinde tanımlayıcı istatistikler ile bağımlı gruplar t-testi kullanılmıştır.
