摘要：Mendonça RMSC, Araújo Jr AT, Sousa MSC, Fernandes HM. The Psychological Health of Women After 16 Weeks of Practicing Different Exercise Programs. JEPonline 2015;18(2):32-44. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of practicing different exercise programs for 16 wks on various psychological dimensions of women. A sample of 89 Brazilian women between 25 and 55 yrs of age (41.42 ± 9.23 yrs), was divided into the following experimental groups: strength training, dance, hydrogymnastics, and a sedentary control group. Women completed rating scales with the following dimensions: satisfaction with physical appearance (SPA), health perception (HP), body image perception, self-esteem (SE), and depression. For the analysis, estimated marginal averages for SPA, HP, and depression were used. The ANCOVA results showed significant effects favorable to all experimental groups on the group × time interaction factor for SPA, HP, and SE. It was concluded that 16 wks of practical exercise resulted in significant improvements in SPA, HP, and SE regardless of the program, with the greatest effect shown by the strength training group.
