本研究主要的目的在瞭解松年大學老人的睡眠品質現況，及探討個人屬性、身體活動和睡眠品質之間的關係。內容以台北縣新店行道會松年大學100位的老人為研究對象，由研究者面對面親訪的方式收案，個案的平均年齡為71±8.32歲。以匹茲堡睡眠品質量表評估個案睡眠品質之得分介於0-12分，平均得分為6.26±2.65分 ，其中睡眠品質不佳者(PSQI>5)佔45%。
經本研究調查所得的資料，由單因子變異數分析、t-檢定、皮爾森積差相關等統計處理後的結果，發現睡眠品質與相關因素的關係如下：
一、個人屬性中除自覺健康較差者其睡眠品質有顯著不佳之外(p<0.01)，在罹患心血管疾病方面的老人，其睡眠品質亦有顯著不佳的情形(p<0.05)。其他屬性則與睡眠品質沒有顯著的相關。
二、松年大學的老人其身體活動以「老年人身體活動量表」測得平均得分為172.88±55.68分，年齡愈大、自覺健康愈差之個案其身體活動量愈少。同時身體活動與睡眠品質之間呈現顯著的正相關性(r=-0.214，p<0.05)，也就是說身體活動量愈大者，睡眠品質愈佳。
整體而言，本研究發現松年大學的老人睡眠品質並不佳，而睡眠品質與身體活動皆有顯著的相關性存在。

The purpose of this study reports of the sleep quality in Senior Community College elders, and the relationship of sleep quality with associated factors including demographic factors and physical activity. A total of 100 elders study in one of Senior Community College at Hsin Tien Covenant Church were purposive sampled and home-visited by the researcher. The average age of the subjects is 71±8.32 years old. It is found that average PSQI(Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index) global score is 6.26±2.65, and 45% Senior Community College elders are poor sleepers whose scores are beyond the cutoff point of 5. Major findings by using statistics of one-way ANOVA, independent t-test and Pearson's product moment correlation of the study are listed below
1. Individual attributes of normal elders do not have apparent effect to sleep quality, except some poor perceived-health elders (p<0.01) and ones who have cardiovascular disease (p<0.05) can’t not have good sleep quality.
2. Physical activity was assessed using PASE (Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly). The mean score of physical activity amount among Senior Community college elders is 172.88±55.68. Bivariate statistics shows that older age and poorer perceived-health are significantly associated with less physical activity. Better sleep quality is positively correlated with more physical activity amount(r=-0.214,p<0.05).
To sum up, the study recommended that the elderly in Senior Community College do not have good sleep quality. Apparently, there is a kind of relationship between sleep quality and physical activity.
