- Abstract
Although current symptom ratings of insomnia, depression, and pain were each associated with exercise participation when added to a multivariate model, including demographic factors, depression alone remained associated with exercise participation in our final model. Other participant characteristics, including a diagnosis of mild traumatic brain injury or posttraumatic stress disorder, were not associated with exercise participation. Greater self-reported depression severity is independently and negatively associated with exercise participation, unlike diagnoses of mild traumatic brain injury or posttraumatic stress disorder, self-reported pain or insomnia.
