摘要
背景/目的最近的证据表明，高尔夫可以培养老年人的平衡能力。这项研究旨在评估电子游戏，特别是网络高尔夫，是否可以成为一种可行且廉价的替代这项有价值的运动。方法招募20名健康的社区居住老年人，随机分为实验组(n = 10)和对照组(n = 10)。实验组的参与者每天进行两周的网络高尔夫训练，对照组的参与者则进行同样长度和持续时间的常规桌上游戏。结果实验组运动员训练后在功能到达测试(F(2,17) = 5.16, p = 0.04)和单腿站立测试(F(2,17) = 5.32, p = 0.03)上的表现明显优于对照组。结论网络高尔夫是一种可替代高尔夫运动的运动方式，可以提高社区老年人的平衡能力。讨论了运动作为老年康复临床工具的潜力。
Effect of Cyber-Golfing on Balance Amongst the Elderly in Hong Kong: A Pilot Randomised Trial
Background/Objective
Recent evidence showed that golf can develop balance amongst the elderly. This study aimed at evaluating if exergaming, in particular cyber-golfing, can be a feasible and inexpensive alternative to this valuable exercise.
Methods
Twenty healthy community-dwelling elderly were recruited, and they were randomly assigned to either the experimental group (n = 10) or the control group (n = 10). Daily cyber-golfing training for 2 weeks was assigned to the participants of the experimental group, where regular table games with equal lengths and durations were arranged for the control group.
Results
The results revealed that the participants in the experimental group showed significantly better post-training performances in the functional-reach test, F(2,17) = 5.16, p = .04, and single-leg-stance test, F(2,17) = 5.32, p = .03, than those in the control group.
Conclusion
The results of this study suggest that cyber-golfing might be an alternative to golfing, which is capable of enhancing balance ability amongst community-dwelling elderly. The potential of exergaming as a clinical tool for geriatric rehabilitation was discussed.
