摘要

本研究旨在探討安養機構老人之規律運動行為現況及預測因子。本研究採描述相關性研究設計，以立意取樣自中部三所公、私立立案之安養機構，共取得100位符合收案條件之老人。採用結構式問卷以面對面訪談方式收集資料，研究資料以SPSS Windows 10.0套裝軟體進行分析。結果顯示：只有36%的老人有從事規律運動行為，而目前是否從事規律運動行為，會因其進住機構前是否有規律運動習慣及日常生活活動功能依賴程度屬於輕度依賴或完全獨立而呈顯著差異。而目前有從事規律運動行為的老人，其自覺健康狀態得分以及上、下肢肌力測試分數均顯著較目前無規律運動者高。以邏輯式迴歸分析發現，進住機構前是否有從事規律運動行為、下肢肌力分數與自覺健康狀態三項為安養機構老人規律運動行為之主要預測因子，其勝算比(odds ratio, OR)分別為7.20、4.09與1.22。本研究結果可供日後安養機構老人規律運動行為推展與相關研究之參考。

The purpose of this study was to explore regular exercise behavior and its predictors among older adults living in residential care homes. A descriptive correlational design was applied. Purposive sampling was used to collect data from 100 older adults living in three public or private registered residential care homes in the Taichung metropolitan area. Data were collected through structured questionnaires with face-to-face interviews, and analyzed by SPSS/windows 10.0 statistical software. The results showed that only 36 percent of the participants engaged in any type of regular exercise. There were statistically significant differences in regular exercise behaviors between two groups with different previous exercise habits and between two groups with different degrees of dependency in relation to activities of daily living. There were statistically significant differences in perceived health status and the muscle powers of the upper and lower limbs between those who engaged in regular exercise and those who did not. The logistic regression analysis indicated that previous exercise habits, perceived health status, and the muscle powers of lower limbs were the significant predictors of older adults' regular exercise behaviors.
