Educational Gerontology, v27 n8 p717-28 Nov-Dec 2001
The SeniorCise booklet and program (based on the Transtheoretical Model of behavior change) were evaluated by 61 older adults; 91% said it helped them think about exercise and 72% engaged in exercise. Positive aspects were presentation, instructions, motivation, and ease of understanding. Few illustrations and lack of a Spanish edition were criticisms. (Contains 27 references.) (SK)
