內政部統計處在2009年老人狀況調查結果發現,老人有75.9%有慢性或重大疾病。慢性病原因與坐式生活型態有關,所以運動對健康的維持非常重要。根據台灣地區中老年身心社會生活狀況長期追蹤調查報告,台灣地區50 歲以上中老年人有37.2%平常沒有在運動,因此本研究目的探討台灣地區中老年人運動情形及其相關因素。研究資料來自國民健康局2007年「台灣地區中老年身心社會生活狀況長期追蹤調查」資料,調查對象共有4534人,選取4112人可自答問卷者為研究對象。研究結果,有規律運動人口占54.8%。與運動相關之變項為年齡、教育程度、居住地區、是否獨居、自覺健康狀況、身體疼痛程度、身體行動是否方便、嚼檳榔、抽菸、服用綜合維他命或礦物質、運動自我效能、社會支持、經濟狀況滿意度與目前工作狀況等變項。與運動無相關之變項為性別、婚姻狀況、喝酒、疾病狀況與家庭因素等變項。年齡、居住地區、是否獨居、目前工作狀況、身體行動是否方便、運動自我效能是預測中老年人運動的因子。建議發展老年人運動方案,必須考慮城鄉差異、老人健康狀況、強化老人自我效能,提高老人運動的比例。
