摘要

本研究目的為探討團體音樂治療活動對社區老人體適能之影響。研究方法採類實驗設計，以立意取樣選擇台中市某二處社區關懷據點，共47名55歲以上之老人（實驗組33人，對照組14人）。實驗組接受每週1次，每次60-90分鐘，持續8週，並結合有氧運動、上下肢大肌群體操式的伸展之團體音樂治療活動：對照組則未參加團體音樂治療，僅參加社區關懷據點日常生活活動。測量變項包括：老人體適能之30秒椅子站立檢測、2.44公尺椅子坐起繞物測驗、2分鐘踏步測驗等。結果：團體音樂治療活動介入對社區老人體適能的影響，在實驗組中之兩分鐘踏步方面，後測次數增加並達統計學顯著差異：而對照組中2.44公尺坐起繞物方面，後測秒數增加有達統計學顯著差異。本研究建議以團體音樂治療活動應可廣泛推廣於社區老人關懷據點中，藉以協助促進社區老人的體適能，進而提升老人生活品質。
