Multidimensional Outcome Expectations for Exercise Scale (MOEES)
The Multidimensional Outcome Expectations for Exercise Scale is used to assess three related, but conceptually independent domains of outcome expectations for exercise (i.e., physical, social, and self-evaluative outcome expectations). For each item, participants indicate the degree to which they agree with each statement (e.g., "Exercise will increase my muscle strength") on a scale of 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). Each dimension is scored by summing the numerical ratings for each response. Higher scores are indicative of higher levels of outcome expectations for exercise.
