Abstract

Abstract Aims Prolonged sedentary behaviors increase the risk for adverse health outcomes among older adults. This study explored the effects of participation in meaningful occupations on sedentary behavior, quality of life, and occupational performance among community-dwelling older adults. Methods This exploratory study utilized a one-group, pretest-posttest design using the Sedentary Behavior Questionnaire, RAND-SF 36, and the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure. Results Six community-dwelling older adults between the ages of 76 and 87 (M = 81.83, SD = 3.87) participated in this exploratory study. No significant difference was noted in sedentary behavior. Significant changes in physical function and role limitations were found. Change in occupational satisfaction and performance was significant among some participants. Engagement in meaningful occupations did not result in improved quality of life. Conclusions Occupation-based interventions may impact the perceived quality of life and occupational performance in community-dwelling older adults; however, further research is needed.

社区居住老年人的久坐行为、生活质量和职业表现

【摘要】目的长时间的久坐行为会增加老年人不良健康结果的风险。本研究探讨了社区居住的老年人参与有意义的职业对久坐行为、生活质量和职业表现的影响。方法本探索性研究采用单组、前测后测设计，采用久坐行为问卷、RAND-SF 36和加拿大职业绩效量表。结果6名76 ~ 87岁的社区老年人(M = 81.83, SD = 3.87)参与了本探索性研究。在久坐行为方面没有发现显著差异。在身体功能和角色限制方面发现了显著的变化。在一些参与者中，职业满意度和绩效的变化是显著的。从事有意义的职业并不能提高生活质量。结论基于职业的干预可能影响社区居住老年人的感知生活质量和职业绩效;然而，还需要进一步的研究。
