description |
The present study was about the acute effects of aerobic dance exercise on
mood changes in female university students. It is a field study that involved
volunteers who joint the aerobic dance exercise class. Based on previous
research, subjects should show positive mental health (an increase in vigor and a
decrease in all negative mood subscales; anger, tension, depression, confusion
and fatigue) after the exercise.
Participants were 16 female students (21.75 ± 0.71 years). They completed
the Brunei of Mood Scale (BRUMS) 15 minutes before and immediately after
exercise. The aerobic dance exercise session lasted for about 60 minutes including
the warm-up, main session and cool-down.
The results indicated that the negatives mood subscales of anger (1.88
versus 1.19), tension (0.94 versus 0.44), depression (2.13 versus 0.94), confusion
(1.63 versus 0.25) and fatigue (4.19 versus 3.81) were lower, while vigor (positive
mood) was higher (7.88 versus 9.81) after the exercise session. However, the
changes were only statistically significant for vigor (p = 0.016, eta2 = 0.328) and
confusion (p = 0.040, eta2 = 0.252). On the other hand, the results also resembled
the Iceberg Profile and may be classified as positive mental health. Findings lend support to the notion that the exercis~ is ~~sociated with
' ~
improved mood. Thus, the aerobic dance exercise can be V,S~d to maintain and
regulate positive mental health. |
