Perceptions of Commercial Health Club Membership

Brief Project Description

Lead Investigator: Todd Miller, PhD; Wayne Miller, PhD
Sponsor: International Health & Racquet Sport Club Association.
Beginning in the summer of 2005, Department researchers will perform a quantitative analysis on Americans' attitudes and perceptions toward commercial health club membership. The goals of the research are to determine why Americans join health clubs; why they discontinue membership; why they don't join health clubs; and what subsets of the population are least likely to join health clubs and why.
