A study on the effects of exercise motivation of the elderly people on euphoria

The present study aimed to empirically determine the relationship between the degree of exercise participation by the elderly people and their euphoria. The analysis results are as follows. First, the difference between the elderly people’s participation in the exercises and the euphoria that they have experienced showed that in all low variables of euphoria, the group who participated in the exercises showed a higher level of euphoria than the group who did not participate in the exercises. Second, the analysis of the effects of the elderly people’s motivations for exercise participation on euphoria showed that there was a significant relation between the two. Furthermore, the following suggestions were made for areas that the current study did not cover, as well as for the follow-up studies. The follow-up studies would need an in-depth multiangled analysis of various fun factors in order to encourage the elderly people to participate in the exercises by conducting interviews and observation studies with the study participants.
