運動中心瑜伽課程參與者自覺健康狀態與幸福感之相關研究

Abstract

本研究以台北市大安、中山兩個運動中心之瑜伽課程參與者為研究對象，探討自覺健康狀態與幸福感之間的關聯及相關情形。本研究以電子問卷調查法收集共收回403份問卷，問卷包含人口學變項(含瑜伽運動參與經驗)、自覺健康量表、幸福感量表。資料處理方式採用描述性統計、單因子變異數分析、皮爾森積差相關、多元迴歸分析，研究結果如下：1、 不同的年齡、運動課程年資、運動課程次數在自覺健康狀態達顯著差異。2、 不同的年齡、婚姻狀態、瑜伽運動課程時間，對幸福感表現達顯著差異。3、 自覺健康狀態與幸福感，呈現顯著的正相關。4、 瑜伽課程參與者的自覺健康狀態對幸福感具有預測力。透過瑜伽團體課程伸展身體活動，除提升參與者的體適能與放鬆之外，更可激發參與者的群體性，對個人的健康促進與凝聚逐漸疏離的社會，具有莫大的助益，且鼓勵全民養成健身運動習慣之外，還能培育更多管理身心健康的瑜伽專業人才，並針對提升民眾自覺健康狀態與幸福感之研究提出各項具體建議。

This study took the participants of yoga courses in Daan and Zhongshan Civil Sport Centers in Taipei, Taiwan as the research objects, and explores the correlation between the perceived health status and the well-being. In this study, a total of 403 surveys were collected to investigate aspects including demographic variables such as experience in exercising, perceived health scales, and well-being scales. The data analysis methodologies include descriptive statistics, one-way analysis of variance, Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient, and multiple regression analysis. The research results were summarized as below:1. There are significant differences in perceived health status across different ages and years of yoga participation.2. There are significant differences in well-being status across ages, marital status, and years of yoga participation.3. Perceived health status and well-being of participants in yoga courses are positively correlated.4. The well-being of yoga participants can be predicted by their perceived health status.The benefits of yoga go beyond physical fitness and relaxation. It also stimulates the groupness of the participants, which increases individuals’ sense of belonging in modern society. With the observation, this study proposes recommendations on how to promote participation and awareness in yoga to develop national-wide fitness and exercise habits. The study also provides guidance on cultivating yoga professionals at scale to improve overall mental health status in Taiwan’s society.
