RESULTS: Totally 420 office employees with mean age of 37.1±8.03 years participated in this study. Perceived barriers to action (B =-0.106, P<0.001), could prevent the studied participants from engaging in SE. However, perceived self efficacy (B = 0.172, P < 0.001), commitment to a plan of action (B = 0.173, P=0.016), interpersonal influences (B = 0.099, P=0.003), and stimulus control (B = 0.193, P=0.007) were significant determinants for SE behavior. CONCLUSION: This study showed that the office employees who were more perceived self efficacy, commitment to a plan of action, interpersonal influences, stimulus control and less perceived barriers were more likely to perform stretching exercise.
