ABSTRACT

This study examines two independent aspects of cognition, deductive and probabilistic reasoning to differentiate between their relationship to physical fitness in older adults. This study measured the deductive and probabilistic reasoning abilities of 65 community dwelling older adults ranging in age from 55 to 92 (M = 74.88, SD = 6.70). A series of three-line syllogisms was used to measure both probabilistic and deductive reasoning while physical testing was carried out using the Senior Fitness Test (SFT). Results showed deductive reasoning to be positively correlated with the SFT, particularly lower body strength (chair stands; r = .40), aerobic fitness (2-minute step test; r = .37), and agility/dynamic balance (8-foot up-and-go [smaller score is better]; r = −.29). However, no relationship was found between physical fitness and probabilistic reasoning.

居住在社区的老年人体能与推理的关系

摘要

这项研究检查了认知的两个独立方面,即演绎推理和概率推理,以区分它们与老年人身体健康的关系。本研究测量了 65 名 55 至 92 岁社区居住老年人的演绎和概率推理能力(M = 74.88,SD  = 6.70)。一系列三线三段论用于测量概率推理和演绎推理,同时使用高级体能测试 (SFT) 进行物理测试。结果显示演绎推理与 SFT 呈正相关,尤其是下肢力量(椅子站立;r = .40)、有氧适能(2 分钟步数测试;r= .37)和敏捷性/动态平衡(8 英尺起跑[分数越小越好];r = -.29)。然而,没有发现身体健康与概率推理之间的关系。
