To investigate the effects of the BAILAMOS dance program on physical activity (PA), cardiorespiratory, and cognitive health. A parallel, two-armed pilot study was conducted with 57 older Latinos randomized to the BAILAMOS dance program ( = 28) or health education (HE) ( = 29). We conducted two- and three-way repeated-measures ANOVAs. BAILAMOS participants increased participation in leisure moderate-to-vigorous PA (LMVPA) ([1,53] = 3.17, = .048, = .01) and performance in global cognition relative to HE participants ([1,52] = 4.19, = .045, = .01). Attendance moderated increases in moderate PA, MVPA, LMVPA, and total PA ( < .05). Participants of both groups with ≥75% attendance increased participation in PA. Among participants with <75% attendance, BAILAMOS participants increased PA relative to HE. BAILAMOS positively impacted self-reported PA and global cognition in older Latinos. Even smaller doses of dance appear to impact self-reported PA levels.
为了探究 BAILAMOS 舞蹈项目对身体活动（PA）、心肺功能和认知健康的影响。我们进行了一项平行的、双臂的试点研究，57 名拉丁裔老年人被随机分配到 BAILAMOS 舞蹈项目（n=28）或健康教育（HE）（n=29）。我们进行了两因素和三因素重复测量方差分析。与 HE 参与者相比，BAILAMOS 参与者增加了休闲中到剧烈体力活动（LMVPA）的参与度（[1,53] = 3.17，p=.048，ηp2 =.01），并且在整体认知方面表现更好（[1,52] = 4.19，p=.045，ηp2 =.01）。出勤率对中强度 PA、MVPA、LMVPA 和总 PA 的增加有调节作用（p<.05）。两组中出勤率≥75%的参与者增加了 PA 参与度。在出勤率<75%的参与者中，BAILAMOS 参与者的 PA 参与度相对于 HE 参与者有所增加。BAILAMOS 项目对拉丁裔老年人的自我报告的 PA 和整体认知产生了积极影响。即使较小剂量的舞蹈也似乎会影响自我报告的 PA 水平。
