Measurement Equivalence of the Behavioral Regulation in Exercise Questionnaire – 2 across Greek Men and Women Exercise Participants

The present study examined the extent of measurement invariance of the Behavioral Regulation in Exercise Questionnaire – 2 (BREQ-2) scores across Greek men and women exercise participants. Data were analyzed from 330 men and 403 women exercise participants aged between 18 and 64 years. After obtaining a sound factor structure via confirmatory factor analysis and strong internal consistency of the Greek BREQ-2 responses for men and women separately, measurement invariance analyses provided support for configural and full metric, full strong, and partial strict factorial invariance across gender. Overall, the present findings point to equivalent interpretation of the BREQ-2 items across Greek men and women exercise participants.
