چکیده

Social support is an important factor for exercise among cancer patients, but too much control might elicit reactance and lead to detrimental effects.

Relative-reported support was the only variable associated with exercise behavior at T2. Perceived control (r = .4) but not perceived support was significantly correlated with reactance. Male patients reported more support, but were also more prone to reactance.
