12週法鼓八式動禪訓練對女性教師健康體適能和生活壓力的影響

Abstract

本研究的主要目的在探討十二週法鼓八式動禪訓練對女性教師健康體適能與生活壓力的影響；並比較有無訓練兩組在健康體適能與生活壓力上之差異。本研究徵求40名國中女性敎師為研究對象，平均年齡為29.9±5.8歲，受試者隨機分配到實驗組（20名）與對照組有20名。實驗組受試者接受十二週，每週訓練三天，每次30分鐘。運動強度為55-65％最大心跳率。在訓練前後，研究對象皆接受健康體適能測驗(800公尺跑走、仰臥起坐、立定跳遠、坐姿體前彎及身體質量指數)與生活壓力問卷調查，受試者於實驗期間要求保持平時之日常生活作息。所得資料以中文版SPSS 10.0套裝軟體進行統計分析，以相依樣本t、共變數分析考驗。 結果如下： 1.實驗組女性教師經過訓練後，各項健康體適能項目皆有顯著進步。（P＜0.05） 2.實驗組女性教師經過訓練後，生活壓力有顯著降低。（P＜0.05） 3.實驗組與對照組在訓練後，兩組經共變數分析比較，結果顯示實驗組之各項健康體適能皆優於對照組。（P＜0.05） 4.實驗組女性教師經過訓練後，生活壓力優於對照組。（P＜0.05） 十二週八式動禪訓練對女性敎師健康體適能與生活壓力有正面影響。

Besides, all the subjects had filled out the life stress questionnaires. All the collected data were analyzed with ANCOVA and dependent t test with SPSS version 10.0 for windows software. Results: 1.The all variables of health-related physical fitness (including 800 m run, BMI, sit and reach, standing long jump, and 1 minute sit-up) after the trainings in experimental group were significantly improved (p< 0.05). 2. The life stress of experimental group was significantly improved after training (p< 0.05). 3. The all variables of health-related physical fitness (including 800 m run, BMI, sit and reach, standing long jump, and 1 minute sit-up) of experimental group after training were significantly better than that of control group (p< 0.05). 4. The life stress of training group was significantly better than that of control group after 12 weeks of training (p< 0.05). Conclusion: The 12 weeks of Drum’s Eight-Form training has positive effects of health-related physical fitness and life stress of junior high school female teachers.
