本研究目的主要探討銀髮族參與規律游泳對於平衡能力有無顯著影響，研究對象針對54位有規律游泳受試者及51位無規律游泳受試者，透過測量身體質量指數(BMI)、睜眼與閉眼單足站立、30秒座椅站立測驗、8呎起立-走、2分鐘原地踏步等測驗，並以SPSS 20進行資料分析，方法包括描述性統計、獨立樣本t檢定、單因子變異數分析，探究規律游泳對銀髮族平衡能力之關係，也希望能夠藉由此研究讓銀髮族有預防的觀念，減少跌倒的機率，也減低國內的醫療支出。研究結果顯示，無論有規律游泳之男性或女性，其數據結果皆優於無游泳者；而依年齡區分，55-59歲、60-64歲65歲以上三組，數據結果以年齡較少者為優；平衡能力各項之間，以睜眼單腳站立-右(平衡能力)、睜眼單腳站立-左(平衡能力)，皆達顯著水準(P<.05)。藉此提出建議以供有關單位、後續研究者作為參考。 The perposo of this study were to discussion on investigation of balance ability in the seniors for regular swimming whether level of significance. Research object on 54 regular swim experimental subject and 51 irregular swim experimental subject . By measuring BMI ,stand on one leg with eye closed and open , 30second seat and stand test, 8 ft Stand up – go test,2-minute step.Carry on the material analysis by SPSS20 ,the method includes description statistics, t test, one way anova, discussion on the investigation of balance ability in the seniors for regular swimming and hope this study offers seniors a prevention perspective reduce the chance of falls would reduce national health spending.
