With the aging of the baby boomer population and their accompanying burden of disease, future disability rates are expected to increase. This paper summarizes the state of the evidence regarding physical activity and aging for individuals with mobility disability and proposes a healthy aging research agenda for this population. Using a previously published framework, we present evidence in order to compile research recommendations in four areas focusing on older adults with mobility disability: (1) prevalence of physical activity, (2) health benefits of physical activity, (3) correlates of physical activity participation, and, (4) promising physical activity intervention strategies. Overall, findings show a dearth of research examining physical activity health benefits, correlates (demographic, psychological, social, and built environment), and interventions among persons aging with mobility disability. Further research is warranted.
随着婴儿潮一代人口老龄化及其随之而来的疾病负担，预计未来的残疾率将会上升。本文总结了有关行动不便的老年人体育活动与衰老方面的证据状况，并为这一人群提出了一项健康老龄化研究议程。我们使用先前发表的框架，展示证据以便在四个领域汇编针对行动不便的老年人的研究建议：（1）体育活动的患病率，（2）体育活动对健康的益处，（3）体育活动参与的相关因素，以及（4）有前景的体育活动干预策略。总体而言，研究结果表明，针对行动不便的老年人，在研究体育活动对健康的益处、相关因素（人口统计学、心理、社会和建筑环境方面）以及干预措施方面存在研究不足。有必要开展进一步研究。
