  This book was published to show the results of research which verified the effectiveness of physical education programs based on social cognitive theories or the transtheoretical model, through which college students can acquire knowledge and skills that will be useful to deal with mental and physical problems, and to test their intervention effects. A number of unique programs were developed and their validity was confirmed. In addition, we constructed a three dimension-interaction model consisting of three concepts (value, attract, and challenge) as guidelines for developing physical education programs and a theoretical model with psycho-social factors as mediators explaining mental health enhancement through physical activity programs..
