为了开发一种简单的测试老年人耐力能力的方法，我们对穿梭耐力步行测试（SSTw）的信度和效度进行了评估，将穿梭耐力测试中的跑步（SST:3分钟10米跑道穿梭跑）改为步行。我们发现：1) SSTw中步行距离与（V) / o（2)max相关（r = 0.827）， 2）步行距离与第一次和第二次测试之间存在相关性（r = 0.853）， 3）测试期间平均峰值心率为估计最大心率的86.3%，年龄和性别无差异，4)73.7%的受试者主观评价运动强度为“相当轻”或“有点硬”。5) SSTw的结果反映了被试对耐力能力的自我评价；6)SSTw中与年龄相关的步行距离减少百分比在40岁及以上被试中与(V) / o(2)max相似。这些结果表明，SSTw是一种简单的耐力能力测试，可以在广泛的中老年人，包括老年晚期和低健康水平的人群中安全进行，具有足够的信度和效度。
To develop a simple test of endurance capacity in the elderly, we evaluated the reliability and validity of the shuttle stamina walk test (SSTw), in which the running in the shuttle stamina test (SST:3-minute shuttle running along a 10-meter course) was changed to walking.We found that: 1) The walking distance in the SSTw was correlated with (V) over dot o(2)max (r = 0.827), 2) the walking distance showed a correlation between the first test and a re-test (r = 0.853), 3) the mean peak heart rate during the test was 86.3% of the estimated maximum heart rate with no difference according to age or sex, 4) subjective evaluation of the intensity of exercise was expressed as "fairly light" or "somewhat hard" by 73.7% of the subjects, 5) the results of the SSTw reflected the subjects' self-evaluation of endurance capacity, and 6) the age-related percentage reduction of the walking distance in the SSTw was similar to that in (V) over dot o(2)max in subjects aged 40 years and above.These results suggest that the SSTw, a simple test of endurance capacity that can be performed safely over a wide range of middle-aged to elderly people including those in late old age and those with a low fitness level, has sufficient reliability and validity.
