Intervention Method: One-and-a-half-day program combining education, role plays and relaxation. Methods: Participants were 11 participants, and of these 8 gave valid responses to our questionnaire. The scores of the participants on a facilitator intervention skills scale and on a scale of facilitator skills to cope with difficult situations were compared before and after the course, using SPSS16 for windows. In addition, the participants’ impressions before and after the course were analyzed qualitatively and inductively. Results: Seven of the 16 items on the facilitator intervention skills scale and 7 of the 12 items on the facilitator skills to cope with difficult situations improved the participants after the facilitator training. All participants indicated that they could understand the lectures. Their impressions changed from anxiety and enthusiasm to pleasure of learning and discovery of specific problems. Conclusion: The results suggested that the educational method created in this study, with emphasis on role-playing, is useful.展开更多

The result showed that there was significant difference between the pre-test and the post-test for the experimental group (n = 17), whereas no significant difference was found between the pre-test and the post- test for the control group (n = 17). In the pre-test, there was no significant difference between the experimental group and the control group, and obvious difference between the two groups was found in the post-test. This indicated that the group training was effective on improving the CDMSE of the college students whose scores of CDMSE were below 27% point of the total students.展开更多

To date, different intervention delivery methods have not been assessed. This study compared the effect of group-based exercise (GBE) to personal training (PT) in men undergoing ADT for PCa. Methods: 13 participants (mean age = 68.2, SD = 7.2) were randomly assigned to GBE or PT for 8 weeks. Participants exercised for 60 minutes three times per week at a moderate-vigorous intensity. Results: 10 participants completed the intervention. At post-intervention, the PT group improved: fatigue, systolic BP, waist circumference, body fat percentage, and maximal leg strength;participants in the GBE group improved leg strength. At 8 weeks, maximal upper body strength in the PT group was greater than the GBE group. There were no adverse events associated with moderate-high intensity training in this population of older men. Conclusion: PT may be more efficacious than GBE in improving several physical fitness outcomes and fatigue in men with PCa who are androgen deprived. Due to the small sample size and attrition, these results require cautious interpretation and confirmation from adequately powered trials.展开更多
