  • Public Health
  • Exercise Science

Background:

  • Aging population in South Korea necessitates focus on elderly quality of life.
  • Physical activity is vital for older adults' well-being.
  • Senior welfare centers offer crucial physical activity programs.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Evaluate exercise characteristics of elderly participants in South Korean senior welfare centers.
  • Assess elderly participants' satisfaction with physical activity programs, instructors, and facilities.
  • Identify factors influencing satisfaction among older adults in these programs.

Main Methods:

  • Surveyed 266 elderly participants in senior welfare centers.
  • Analyzed 263 completed surveys using SPSS 23.0 statistical software.
  • Examined exercise participation patterns and satisfaction levels.

Main Results:

  • Dancing, gymnastics, and racket sports were the most popular activities.
  • Satisfaction levels differed significantly based on sex, education, marital status, family type, and income.
  • Participants reported highest satisfaction with programs, followed by facilities and instructors.

Conclusions:

  • Elderly satisfaction with physical activity programs is influenced by demographic and exercise characteristics.
  • Programs should be tailored to individual elderly needs and preferences.
  • Optimizing physical activity programs can enhance the quality of life for the aging population.
