Light-Intensity, Community-Based Group Exercise: A Pre–Post Study

We investigated the motor and psychological effects of 15-week participation in a light-intensity, group-based, multicomponent program designed to older adults. Motor variables included: Two-Minute Step Test (twom), Timed Up and Go (tug), 30-Second Arm Curl (arm), Hand Grip Strength (hand) and Short Physical Performance Battery (sppb), while psychological variables included Frontal Assessment Battery (fab), WAIS Digit Span Test (wais), Geriatric Depression Scale (gds) and World Health Organization Quality of Life Brief Version questionarie (who). A total of 143 older adults were included in the final analysis, the data shows dependent variables results for each participant before (t0) and after 15 weeks of participation in the program (t1), besides their sex (0: male; 1: female) and age. This data set can be used to draw conclusions about group-based interventions in older adults.本研究探究了参与一项专为老年人设计的15周轻强度团体多组分干预方案对其运动与心理状态的影响。运动相关测评指标包括：两分钟踏步测试（Two-Minute Step Test, twom）、计时起立行走测试（Timed Up and Go, tug）、30秒手臂弯举测试（30-Second Arm Curl, arm）、握力测试（Hand Grip Strength, hand）以及简易体能状况量表（Short Physical Performance Battery, sppb）；心理相关测评指标包括：额叶评估量表（Frontal Assessment Battery, fab）、韦氏成人智力量表数字广度测试（WAIS Digit Span Test, wais）、老年抑郁量表（Geriatric Depression Scale, gds）以及世界卫生组织简版生活质量问卷（World Health Organization Quality of Life Brief Version, who）。本研究最终纳入143名老年人进行数据分析，数据集包含所有受试者在干预前（t0）及参与15周干预后（t1）的因变量测评结果，同时收录受试者的性别（0：男性；1：女性）与年龄信息。本数据集可用于推导针对老年人的团体干预相关结论。
