| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This was an exploratory study of how exercise influences sleep, physical function, cognitive function, and quality of life (QOL) of older people. It was observed that 15 minutes of mild exercise soon after wake-up executed by older people for a week significantly decreased sleep duration and total sleep time, and tended to decrease sleep episode block and wake episode block, while it had almost no significant effects on changes of physical and cognitive functions, Epworth Sleepiness Scale, and QOL. But these results suggest the possibility that making a habit of exercising soon after wake-up, even if short in duration, could initiate smooth daily activities, more effectively regulate sleep in older people, improve physical and cognitive functions, and QOL as well.
