The objective of this study is to investigate the impact of exercise habits on enhancing the sleep quality of older adults. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Scale and other questionnaires were utilized to assess the sleep quality of older adults aged 60 years and above in the H district. The sampling method employed was stratified random sampling. To analyze the influencing factors of sleep quality, the average treatment effect was estimated, the robustness of the results was assessed and statistical methods such as Logit regression and propensity score matching were employed. The study revealed that exercise habits strongly correlated with improved sleep quality in the older adult ( < 0.05), with the average total sleep quality score being 6.22 (±3.53). It was observed that older adults who engaged in exercise habits experienced a significant 12.66% increase in the likelihood of achieving good sleep. This investigation highlights the positive association between exercise habits and enhanced sleep quality among older adults. Additionally, age, physical pain and self-rated health statuses were identified as significant factors influencing sleep quality in this population. To enhance the sleep quality of older adults, this article recommends promoting relevant exercise habits, thus contributing to their overall well-being and quality of life.
本研究的目的是调查运动习惯对提高老年人睡眠质量的影响。使用匹兹堡睡眠质量量表和其他问卷对H区60岁及以上老年人的睡眠质量进行评估。采用的抽样方法是分层随机抽样。为了分析睡眠质量的影响因素，估计了平均治疗效果，评估了结果的稳健性，并采用了Logit回归和倾向得分匹配等统计方法。研究表明，运动习惯与老年人睡眠质量的改善密切相关（<0.05），平均总睡眠质量得分为6.22（±3.53）。据观察，有运动习惯的老年人实现良好睡眠的可能性显著增加了12.66%。这项调查突出了运动习惯与老年人睡眠质量提高之间的正相关关系。此外，年龄、身体疼痛和自我评定的健康状况被确定为影响该人群睡眠质量的重要因素。为了提高老年人的睡眠质量，本文建议促进相关运动习惯，从而有助于他们的整体幸福感和生活质量。
