摘要

本研究主要之目的在探討有無規律登山之老年人在體適能與睡眠品質上的差異，以80名台北縣(市)60~70歲的男性老年人為受試對象；其中40名為有半年以上持續進行爬山運動之登山組(每週登山三次、每次30分鐘以上)，另40名老人則為平常無運動習慣之對照組，測量兩組的體適能，並填寫匹茲堡睡眠品質量表(PSQI)以評估其睡眠品質。資料以獨立樣本t-
test、卡方檢定，進行統計分析，獲得以下結論:
一、在體適能測驗上，有規律從事登山運動之老年人在心肺耐力、下肢肌力、柔軟度、平衡能力等測驗結果明顯優於無規律運動之對照組(p<.05)。但在身體組成、睜眼墊腳尖站立上兩組間則沒有顯著差異。
二、登山組與對照組在匹茲堡睡眠品質量表(PSQI)的睡眠品質評估上，兩組平均得分為5.8分與5.5分，但沒有達到顯著差異。
有規律登山之老年人比無規律登山者有較佳的體適能水準，但在睡眠品質上兩組間則沒有不同。

The purposes of this study was to compare the difference of physical 　fitness and sleeping quality between the regular mountain-climbed elderly and sedentary controls. Eighty male subjects, ages from 60 to 70 years, lived in Taipei city or county were asked to perform the physical fitness test and filled out the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaire. Forty of the subjects had regularly mountain-climbed ( 3 times per week, more than 30 minutes each time ) for at least half year, and the other elderly didn’t have regular exercise habits. The t-test and χ2 test were used to analyzed the data. The results from the study was followed:
1. The cardiovascular fitness, lower extremity strength, flexibility and balance of the regular mountain-climbed elderly were significantly better than those of control groups. However, the body composition and the balance of the balance (open-eye one leg stand) of the two groups didn’t reach the significant levels.
2. The average scores of PSQI of regular mountain-climbed and control subjects were 5.8 and 5.5, respectively, and didn’t have significant difference.
The regular mountain-climbed elderly had better physical fitness then those of sedentary subjects, but the sleeping quality didn’t show the difference between two groups.
