Wininger and Pargman (2003) state from a study he conducted involving 282 female subjects that other factors associated with exercise enjoyment are. These variables in the study were: "satisfaction with the music used in the exercise environment, satisfaction with the exercise instructor, and salience of exercise role-identity (EIS)." In Wininger and Pargman's (2003) study, the results revealed significant positive correlations between all 3 variables and exercise enjoyment.
