With the establishment of new China,Chine's women have gained more equal rights in the social fields of politics,economy and culture.In addition,they have got more development either in competitive sports or social sports.When the living conditions in China's society are improved a lot,the women will seek higher aspiration.Their requirement for sports is just the high-level pursue for enjoying life and developing themselves.However,the rural women's sports always develop slowly.Since the middle-aged rural women have a poor physical condition,it is urgent to improve the health condition of middle-aged rural women.However,to really make the rural women participate in the sports,their attitude towards physical exercise should be improved,thus promoting them to form a good sports consciousness and cultivating their habits of taking part in the physical exercises.In this paper,the author takes the middle-aged rural women in Kunming area as the research objects.By adopting the random cluster sampling method,the author selects the Kunming 6 areas' surrounding rural women aged from 45 to 59 as the investigation objects.By making a survey and analyzing the attitude towards physical exercise and their sports behaviors of the women who participate in the sports,and making a survey and analyzing the attitude towards physical exercise and their sports behaviors who don't participate in the sports,the author makes a study on the relationship between the attitude towards the sports and the sports behaviors.The research results are as follows:(1)The middle-aged rural women in Kunming area are not enthusiastic about the sports.They lack interests in sports and they have few sports consciousness.The middle-aged women who participate in the physical exercise have a relatively good attitude towards sports and they have a nice emotional experience to sports,but they have a poor sports behavior;as for the middle-aged women who don't take part in the sports,they have a poor attitude towards sports and they lack interests in sports,so they don't have behavior intentions.(2)There is a significant difference in the attitude towards sports between the middle-aged women who participate in sports and the women who don't participate in sports.The score of women who participate in sports is obviously higher than the women who don't participate in sports.The two kinds of women also have asignificant difference in terms of behavior attitude,behavioral intension and emotional experience.Moreover,the average value of middle-aged women who participate in sports of each dimension is higher than the women who don't take part in the sports.In terms of cognitive behavior,there is no significant difference between the middle-aged women who participate in sports and the middle-aged women who don't take part in the sports.(3)The Kunming rural women who take part in sports like dancing,running and walking.Most of the women take exercises less than half an hour every time,Mostly,they choose the practice of middle and small intensity.They seldom have exercises.They mostly take exercises in the public area and have a low consumption level.Additionally,their sports consumption don't have an absolutely relation with their family annual income.There are few people taking the scientific exercise.Their sports training condition is not ideal and there is a poor participation.They lack the consciousness,initiative and usualness towards sports.(4)The four dimensions of middle-aged rural women's attitude towards sports in Kunming area have the relevance with the sports behaviors.The one which mostly related to the sports behaviors is the emotional experience.The lowest one is the behavior cognition.Each dimension of different sports has the positive correlation.Furthermore,there is a significant correlation among different exercise amount's sports attitude,behavior attitude,behavioral intension and emotional experience when P<0.05.(5)Most of middle-aged women who don't take part in sports have no interest in sports.Under the allowable condition,most middle-ages women will participate in sports activity.They are likely to take part in walking,square dancing,instrument body-building.Mostly,they hope to participate in sports in the public sports filed and facility.What they most need are bodybuilding facilities,battledore,skipping rope,audio device and broadcasting device.In most case,they need the guidance when taking the exercises.They hope the local government and village committee can well organize the sports activity,thus realizing their sports demands.Therefore,they are willing to make consumption in the aspect of sports.(6)The main factors for hindering middle-aged women's to participate in sports are lacking of time,high living pressure,lacking of ground and equipment,few sports partners,limited economic condition,lacking of organizations and guidance,laziness,losing of interest and little knowledge of
