| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立體育學院 === 運動科學研究所 === 81 === The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Tai
Chi Chaun training on Physiological response of Psychological
Stress, Perception of Stress and Type A Behavior Pattern.
Twenty-four type A subjects from Chang Cung Institute of
Nursing College were randomly assigned to experimental group
(n=12) and control group (n=12). The experimental group
participated in the Yang Tai Chi Chaun training for twelve
weeks. The training courses were three times a week, including
the first section of Yang Tai Chi Chaun and the instruction of
Tai Chi Chaun principles. The control group was required not to
change their habits of exercise during the twelve weeks. Both
groups were tested on the dependent variables before and after
the training. Data wre collected from "State-Trait Anger
Scale","State- Trait Anxiety Inventory","Type A Behavior
Pattern Scale for Chinses People" and the response of heart
rate, blood pressure,and skin temperature during mirror trace
task. All data were analyzed by mixed factor two-way ANOVA.
After training for 12 weeks, the results showed: On DBP
difference (stress-rest)of experimental group, the post-test
was lower than the pretest. On skin temperture difference,the
post-test of experimental group was smaller than its pretest as
well as the post-test of control group. On SBP and HR, there
was no significant interaction. On the perception of stress,
the trait anger scale showed significant interation,while there
was no significant interation on trait anxiety. On the type A
behavior only the "aggression and hostility" in the post-test
of experimental group was lower than its pretest as well as the
post-test of the control group.
