Abstract

The aim of this study; investigated the effects of an eight-week exercise and nutrition lifestyle intervention on weight control and behavior change processes in sedentary older adults with overweight obesity. They were assigned to a control group (18 women) aged ≥65 years with a body mass index (BMI (kg/m2) ≥30.00) or to a intervention group (17) undergoing an eight-week exercise lifestyle intervention. The behavioral attitudes of the participants before and after the intervention were determined with the Exercise Change Processes Scale (ECPS) and the Nutrition Change Processes Scale (NCPS). Descriptive statistics and T test were used in the research. Statistical significance was accepted as P < 0.05. There were no significant control group differences in any of the baseline values, but there were BMI and Body weight significant intervention group differences of the post-test values (p<00*). While there was a no significant (p>,278) difference in Helping Relationships according to comparison of pre-test and post-test measurements of the intervention group exercise change processes scale sub-dimensions, there were significant between-group differences in other of the baseline values (p<05*, p<001*). When comparing the pre-test and post-test measurements of the nutrition change processes scale sub-dimensions of the control and intervention groups, there are significant differences in all sub-dimensions in favor of the intervention group (p<05*, p<001*). In conclusion; Within the scope of ECPS and NCPS among inactive elderly individuals, it is aimed to prevent obesity in the elderly, improve health, and make people competent in improving and controlling their own health.
