摘要

目標：肥胖，是一全球性的公共衛生問題，也是許多慢性疾病之重要危險因子。本研究欲探討中老年人族群介入社區型之健走運動，對其健康相關指標之影響。方法：本研究採類實驗性研究設計（Quasi-experimental design），以立意取樣方式選取非規律運動者，分為：實驗組(健走運動介入組)計28名；對照組(未參加健走運動組)共8名。收案時間為：96年8月24日至96年10月28日止（共計9 週）。採用SPSS 13.0版進行統計分析。結果：實驗組經由9週健走運動介入後，於腰圍、體重、身體質量指數、收縮壓、三酸甘油脂以及低密度脂蛋白膽固醇等指數均有顯著降低之情形；對照組則無顯著變化。混合設計雙因子變異數分析顯示：實驗組在運動介入後，體重、身體質量指數、三酸甘油脂確實有達顯著改善。結論：整體而言，經由9週的社區型健走運動介入能有效提升中老年人之健康相關指標的改善。

Objectives: Obesity is not only a global public health problem, but also an important risk factor of many chronic diseases. The purpose of our study was to investigate the effects of health-related indicators that collected from a community exercise-walking intervention for the middle-aged and elderly. Methods: Quasi-experiment design was used, and selected a group of non-regular exercise subjects. These subjects were divided into: (1) the experimental group (exercise-walking intervention group, N= 28); (2) the control group (the group that did not participate in the exercise-walking, N= 8). All subjects were recruited from August 24, 2007~October 28, 2007 (a period of 9 weeks). Results: After 9 weeks of exercise-walking intervention, the waist circumference, weight, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, triglyceride and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol of the experimental group had declined significantly among the experimental group, with no significant changes among the control group. The mixed-design two-way ANOVA showed that after the intervention, the body weight, body mass index, and triglyceride in the experimental group indeed showed a significant improvement. Conclusions: Nine weeks of community exercise-walking intervention can effectively improve the health related indicators of the middle-aged and elderly in the community.
