This clinical trial examined changes in affect, behavior, and cognition in 176 chronically ill elders who were randomly assigned to Resourcefulness Training (RT), Acceptance Training (AT), or Diversional Activities (DA). The RT group improved on affect (t(1,42) = 4.91; p < .001) and cognition (t(1,42) = 2.03; p < .05) and these effects lasted 12 weeks. The AT group improved on affect (t(1,36) = 3.08; p < .01), but this improvement did not persist. The RT and AT groups both showed positive behavior changes after six weeks. There were no changes in the DA group. The findings suggest that teaching elders resourcefulness and acceptance of chronic conditions may promote healthy functioning and improve their quality of life.
这项临床试验研究了176名慢性病老年人在情绪、行为和认知方面的变化,这些老年人被随机分配到应变能力训练(RT)、接纳训练(AT)或消遣活动(DA)组。RT组在情绪(t(1,42) = 4.91;p < .001)和认知(t(1,42) = 2.03;p < .05)方面有所改善,且这些效果持续了12周。AT组在情绪方面有所改善(t(1,36) = 3.08;p < .01),但这种改善并未持续。RT组和AT组在六周后均表现出积极的行为变化。DA组没有变化。研究结果表明,教导老年人应变能力和接纳慢性病状况可能会促进健康功能并改善他们的生活质量。
