Project aims are a) to test the efficacy of a physical exercise program for adults with Down syndrome and b) to test the applicability of the transtheoretical model and social cognitive theory for predicting long- term adherence to enhanced physical activity in this population. It will also test the effects of a health promotion program on their physiological, adaptive behavior, and psychosocial outcomes. The design includes three randomized groups (n=36 per group): control and two intervention groups. Both intervention groups will received a 12-week center-based group exercise and education program offered at the Institute on Disability and Human Development's Center on Health Promotions for Persons with Disabilities. Only one of the intervention groups will receive the caregiver education programs. The project objectives are the following: 1. Test the efficacy of the exercise and education program for older adults with Down syndrome immediately following the program and in four six month intervals after the program is completed. The Exercise program is geared to increase cardiorespiratory fitness, muscle strength, and endurance. The education program for the adults with Down syndrome aims to increase knowledge of exercise benefits and to increase perceived exercise self-efficacy. 2. Assess the long-term benefits of a caregiver (family or vocational and residential staff) education training program geared to help caregivers support adherence to an exercise program. Outcomes assessed to four six month intervals following the program includes exercise adherence, physiological functioning, adaptive functioning, and psychosocial functions of the adult with Down syndrome. 3. Determine predictor variables associated with exercise adherence in the short and longer term (immediately after the training and in four six month intervals after the training)> Predictor variables include level of disability, age, type of residence, and exercise decisional balance (balance of perceived gains and losses and exercise self-efficacy of the adult with Down syndrome.

项目目标是a）测试体育锻炼计划的功效 对于患有唐氏综合症的成年人和b）测试 跨理论模型和社会认知理论，用于预测长期 遵守该人群中体育锻炼的术语。会 还测试健康促进计划对其的影响 生理，适应性行为和社会心理结局。设计 包括三个随机组（每组n = 36）：对照和两个 干预组。两个干预小组都将收到12周 基于中心的小组锻炼和教育计划 关于残疾和人类发展的健康促进中心 残疾人。干预组中只有一个 接受照顾者教育计划。项目目标是 下列的： 1。测试年龄较大的运动和教育计划的功效 计划后立即患有唐氏综合症的成年人，四个 程序完成后六个月的间隔。锻炼计划 旨在提高心肺健康，肌肉力量和 耐力。唐氏综合症成年人的教育计划旨在 增加对运动益处的知识并增加感知的锻炼 自我效能。 2。评估照顾者的长期利益（家庭或职业和职业和 住宅人员）旨在帮助护理人员的教育培训计划 支持遵守锻炼计划。结果评估为四个 程序之后的月间隔包括锻炼依从性， 生理功能，自适应功能和社会心理 唐氏综合症成年人的功能。 3。确定与运动依从性相关的预测变量 短期和长期（训练后立即和四个六个 培训后的月间隔）>预测变量包括 残疾，年龄，居住类型和锻炼决策平衡 （平衡感知的损失和损失与行使自我效能的平衡 成年唐氏综合症。
