【 摘 要 】

The purpose of this study was to examine if exercise had a positive effect on reducing depression in collete students at University of Michigan-Flint (UMF). This study of twenty-four UMF students examined the effect of these interventions on BDI scores. A decrease was found in all three groups with slightly more change in the exercise group than the counseling group, but not enough to make a statistical difference due to the small sample sizes (p = .295).
