Purpose: This study was performed to determine the physical and psychological effects of an urban forest-walking program for officeworkers. For many workers, sedentary lifestyles can lead to low levels of physical activity causing various health problems despite an increasedinterest in health promotion.
Methods: Fifty four office workers participated in this study. They were assigned to two groups(experimental group and control group) in random order and the experimental group performed 5 weeks of walking exercise based onInformation-Motivation-Behavioral skills Model. The data were collected from October to November 2014. SPSS 21.0 was used for thestatistical analysis.
Results: The results showed that the urban forest walking program had positive effects on the physical activity level(U=65.00, p <.001), health promotion behavior (t= - 2.20, p =.033), and quality of life (t= - 2.42, p =.020). However, there were no statisticaldifferences in depression, waist size, body mass index, blood pressure, or bone density between the groups.
Conclusion: Thecurrent findings of the study suggest the forest-walking program may have positive effects on improving physical activity, health promotionbehavior, and quality of life. The program can be used as an effective and efficient strategy for physical and psychologicalhealth promotion for office workers.
