The effects of 2 oncologist-based exercise interventions-recommendation only (RO) and recommendation plus referral (RR)-versus usual care (UC) on social-cognitive constructs from the theory of planned behavior (TPB) are examined. Independent t tests revealed that both intervention had significant effects on TPB constructs, however, only the RO intervention impacted perceived behavioral control (PBC).
