Abstract

The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between total physical activity and different dimensions of cognitive function (orientation, attention, and memory) among older adults in rural Sichuan, China. This cross-sectional study involved 715 older adults (average age of 72 years). Total PA was measured by the Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly, and cognitive function was assessed by the Telephone Interview for Cognitive Status (TICS) questionnaire. The multivariate linear regression analysis indicated that total PA and household PA were significantly associated with the overall Telephone Interview for Cognitive Status score (β = 0.143, p < .001; β = 0.115, p = .002, respectively), the orientation dimension (β = 0.142, p < .001; β = 0.131, p = .001, respectively), and the memory dimension (β = 0.179, p < .001; β = 0.134, p = .001, respectively). The study showed a positive association between total PA, household PA, and cognitive function in older adults, especially in the orientation dimension and the memory dimension of cognitive function.

中国四川农村老年人体力活动与认知功能的关系

摘要本研究旨在探讨四川农村老年人总体体力活动与认知功能(定向、注意和记忆)的关系。这项横断面研究涉及715名老年人(平均年龄72岁)。采用老年人体力活动量表(Physical Activity Scale for Elderly)测量总PA，采用认知状态电话访谈(Telephone Interview for cognitive Status, TICS)问卷评估认知功能。多元线性回归分析显示，总PA和家庭PA与认知状态电话访谈总分显著相关(β = 0.143, p < 0.001;β = 0.115, p = 0.002)，取向维度(β = 0.142, p < 0.001;β = 0.131, p = .001)，记忆维度(β = 0.179, p < .001;β = 0.134, p = 0.001)。研究发现，老年人总PA、家庭PA与认知功能呈正相关，尤其是认知功能的定向维度和记忆维度。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Aging and Physical Activity (JAPA) is a multidisciplinary journal that publishes peer-reviewed original research reports, scholarly reviews, and professional-application articles on the relationship between physical activity and the aging process. The journal encourages the submission of articles that can contribute to an understanding of (a) the impact of physical activity on physiological, psychological, and social aspects of older adults and (b) the effect of advancing age or the aging process on physical activity among older adults. In addition to publishing research reports and reviews, JAPA publishes articles that examine the development, implementation, and evaluation of physical activity programs among older adults. Articles from the biological, behavioral, and social sciences, as well as from fields such as medicine, clinical psychology, physical and recreational therapy, health, physical education, and recreation, are appropriate for the journal. Studies using animal models do not fit within our mission statement and should be submitted elsewhere.
