There may be differential benefits from regular exercise for elderly persons, and their rationales about exercise can influence the likelihood that they will do it. 98 elderly persons (29 men, M age = 66.3 yr., SD = 9.1, Range = 51-90 and 69 women, M age = 72.7 yr., SD = 10.3, Range = 53-94) were given two self-report surveys of 13 items each consisting of statements about jogging, not jogging, or engaging in other forms of exercise. Only one man and one woman completed the "reasons for jogging" form, while 96 elderly persons completed the "reasons for not jogging" form. A two-way (repeated-measures) analysis of variance indicated a significant main effect for differences among 10 items dealing with "reasons for not jogging." These reasons included engaging in another form of aerobic activity (such as walking), having a health condition that prevented jogging, and jogging as too uncomfortable.
定期锻炼对老年人可能有不同的益处，而且他们对锻炼的理解会影响其进行锻炼的可能性。98名老年人（29名男性，平均年龄 = 66.3岁，标准差 = 9.1，年龄范围 = 51 - 90岁；69名女性，平均年龄 = 72.7岁，标准差 = 10.3，年龄范围 = 53 - 94岁）接受了两项自我报告调查，每项调查有13个项目，内容包括关于慢跑、不慢跑或进行其他形式锻炼的陈述。只有一名男性和一名女性完成了“慢跑原因”表格，而96名老年人完成了“不慢跑原因”表格。一项双因素（重复测量）方差分析表明，在处理“不慢跑原因”的10个项目之间存在显著的主效应。这些原因包括进行另一种形式的有氧运动（如散步）、有健康状况妨碍慢跑以及慢跑太不舒服。
