中文摘要 | 研究證實太極拳對老年人之健康及安適感有顯著之成效;然而,虛弱老年人從事此項活動者卻不多。本描述性研究之目的旨在探討虛弱老人對太極之觀感,包括拳法招式難易度,打拳頻率與時間,及打拳之偏好。運用焦點團體,40位入住長期照護機構之老年人接受訪談。研究結果顯示,老年人較能接受緩慢或大動作之太極拳招式,且他們喜歡以團體約10至20人方式在清晨或午睡後一起打拳,每週兩次,每次約31至60分鐘。另外,打拳地點宜寬敞、平坦、通風且不易受干擾之處。教拳者應具經驗豐富、和藹可親、關心體諒、及表達清晰等特質。這些觀感可作為未來針對虛弱老人太極拳活動設計之參考。 |
英文摘要 | The beneficial effects of Tai Chi on an elder's well-being have been well documented; however, not many frail elders practice it. The purpose of this descriptive study was to explore the perspectives frail elders have about Tai Chi, including its movements, practice frequency and duration, and practice preferences. Using focus groups, 40 frail elders who lived in long-term care facilities were interviewed. Results indicated that Tai Chi styles with slow and large motions were manageable. Subjects preferred to practice 1ai Chi in a group of 10 to 20 people, twice a week with 31 to 60 minutes of practice in the early morning or in the afternoon after napping. The practice locations should be wide, flat, non-disturbed, and well-ventilated. Tai Chi instructors should be experienced, gentle, considerate, and have clarity in expression. Findings can be used to design a simple Tai Chi program that is specifically tailored to the needs of frail elders. |
