对Schmacher等人文章的评论（见记录2013-06066-009）。 《康复心理学》的读者可能会感到惊讶，甚至可能感到震惊，因为他们在最新一期的封面上发现了一篇关于促进健全人身体活动的文章。这篇评论认为，这一研究和实践领域可能是康复心理学家想要涉足的领域。舒马赫和同事描述了用于加强爬楼梯的令牌系统的现场测试（N = 216）。场景是美国东南部一座中型城市的一座八层办公楼，里面有一家公司。舒马赫等人。报告称，所有研究参与者在实施干预前 6 个月内每天进行 39 次楼梯交易，增加到实施干预后 6 个月内的 301 次，增加了 600%。每人的干预费用仅为 17 美元。尽管在具有额外控制源的研究中复制这些结果会增加对研究结果有效性的信心，但爬楼梯的收益大小、研究参与者的数量、基线和实施期的长度以及结果的客观测量值得关注。（PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2022 APA，保留所有权利）
Comments on the article by Schmacher et al.(see record 2013-06066-009). Readers of Rehabilitation Psychology might be surprised, or maybe even alarmed, to find an article on promoting physical activity in able-bodied people between the covers of their latest issue. This commentary contends that this area of research and practice might be one into which rehabilitation psychologists want to venture. Schumacher and coworkers describe a field test (N= 216) of a token system for reinforcing stair taking. The setting was an eight-story office building housing a single company in a midsized city in the southeastern United States. Schumacher et al. report an increase from 39 stair transactions per day by all study participants in the 6 months before implementation of the intervention to 301 transactions in the 6 months after the implementation of the intervention, which represents a 600% increase. The cost of the intervention was only $17 per person. Although replication of these results in a study with additional sources of control would increase confidence in the validity of the findings, the size of the gains in stair taking, the number of participants in the study, the length of the baseline and implementation periods, and the objective measurement of outcome warrant attention.(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved)
