摘要
本工作采用“数字符号”及“默写”和“临摹”变式三项测验,对老年,(30例、平均66岁)和青年(20例、平均25岁)训练组进行训练作用的研究。并设两个对照组,在年龄、性别、文化方面和训练组匹配。结果指出:1)老年组各项作业较青年组明显要差;2)训练后作业较训练前有进步,训练后老年组成绩较未训练青年对照组好。这表明功能训练能改善老年人的心智能力,有关记忆的改善比反应速度的改善更为明显。
The effect of digit symbol training was tested with digit symbol andits two variations- 'write from memory'and 'copy test' in the aged (30 Ss,aver. 66 yrs old) and the young (20 Ss, aver. 25 yrs old)training groupsrespectively. Two control groups, matched in age, sex and educationallevel with the trained ones were used. The results indicate: 1. Theperformance of the aged group was significantly worse than the youngergroup; 2. After training, performance improved significantly in bothgroups, and the performance of the trained aged group was better thanthat of the younger control group. This shows that the mental ability ofthe aged might be improved by functional training, and the abilityrelated to memory is more responsive to training than that related toreaction time.
