The AgingPLUS program targets motivational barriers, including negative views of aging, as mechanisms to increase adult physical activity. A pilot study was conducted to test the efficacy of this new program against a generic successful aging program. Fifty-six participants were randomly assigned to the AgingPLUS group, and 60 participants were assigned to the active control group. Repeated-measures multivariate analyses of variance assessed changes in views of aging, physical activity, blood pressure, and hand-grip strength from pretest (Week 0) to delayed posttest (Week 8). The Condition × Occasion interactions were nonsignificant; however, significant main effects for condition and occasion were found. Follow-up tests showed that views of aging were more positive, and physical activity had significantly increased at Week 8 for all participants. In addition, in the treatment group, elevated blood pressure had significantly decreased and hand-grip strength had significantly increased at Week 8. Despite the nonsignificant multivariate findings, the main effect findings provided partial support for the efficacy of the AgingPLUS program.
AgingPLUS 计划针对动机障碍,包括对衰老的负面看法,作为增加成年人身体活动的机制。进行了一项试点研究,以测试该新计划相对于通用成功老龄化计划的功效。56 名参与者被随机分配到 AgingPLUS 组,60 名参与者被分配到积极对照组。重复测量多元方差分析评估了从预测试(第 0 周)到延迟后测试(第 8 周)期间对衰老、身体活动、血压和握力的看法的变化。条件 × 场合的交互作用不显著;然而,条件和场合的主要效应是显著的。后续测试表明,所有参与者的衰老观更加积极,第 8 周身体活动显著增加。此外,在治疗组中,第 8 周血压显著降低,握力显著增加。尽管多元分析结果不显著,但主要效应结果为 AgingPLUS 计划的功效提供了部分支持。
