Researchersin the Netherlands report that children who get moreexercise, whether at school or on their own,26to havehigher GPAs and better scores on standardized tests. In a27 of 14 studies that looked at physical activity andacademic28, investigators found that the more childrenmoved, the better their grades were in school,29 inthe basic subjects of math, English and reading.The data will certainly fuel the ongoing debate overwhether physical education classes should be cut as schoolsstruggle to30 on smaller budgets. The argumentsagainst physical education have included concerns that gymtime may be taking away from study time. With standardizedtest scores in the U.S.31 in recent years, someadministrators believe students need to spend more time inthe classroom instead of on the playground. But as thesefindings show, exercise and academics may not be32exclusive. Physical activity can improve blood33 tothe brain, fueling memory, attention and creativity, whichare34 to learning. And exercise releases hormones thatcan improve35 and relieve stress, which can also helplearning. So while it may seem as if kids are justexercising their bodies when theyre running around, theymay actually be exercising their brains as well.A)attendanceB)consequentlyC)currentD)depressingE)droppingF)essentialG)feasibleH)flowI)moodJ)mutuallyK)particularlyL)performanceM)reviewN)surviveO)tendFinding the Right Homeand Contentment, TooA When your elderly relative needs to enter some sortof long-term care facilitya moment few parents orchildren approach without fearwhat you would like is tohave everything made clear.B Does assisted living really mark a greatimprovement over a nursing home, or has the industry simplyhired better interior designers? Are nursing homes as badas people fear, or is that an out-moded stereotype (固定看法)? Can doing ones homework really steer families to thebest places? It is genuinely hard to know.C I am about to make things more plicated bysuggesting that what kind of facility an older person livesin may matter less than we have assumed. And that thecharacteristics adult children look for when they begin thesearch are not necessarily the things that make adifference to the people who are going to move in. I am nottalking about the quality of care, let me hastily add.Nobody flourishes in a gloomy environment withirresponsible staff and a poor safety record. But anaumulating body of research indicates that somedistinctions between one type of elder care and anotherhave little real bearing on how well residents do.DThe most recent of these studies, published in Thejournal of Applied Gerontology, surveyed 150 Connecticutresidents of assisted living, nursing homes and smallerresidential care homes (known in some states as board andcare homes or adult care homes). Researchers from theUniversity of Connecticut Health Center asked the residentsa large number of questions about their quality of life,emotional well-being and social interaction, as well asabout the quality of the facilities.E“We thought we would see differences based on thehousing types,” said the lead author of the study, JulieRobison, an associate professor of medicine at theuniversity. A reasonable assumptiondont familiesstruggle to avoid nursing homes and suffer real guilt ifthey cant?F In the initial results, assisted living residentsdid paint the most positive picture. They were less likelyto report symptoms of depression than those in the otherfacilities, for instance, and less likely to be bored orlonely. They scored higher on social interaction.G But when the researchers plugged in a number ofother variables, such differences disappeared. It is notthe housing type, they found, that creates differences inresidents responses. “It is the characteristics of thespecific environment they are in, bined with their ownpersonal characteristicshow healthy they feel they are,their age and marital status,” Dr. Robison explained.Whether residents felt involved in the decision to move andhow long they had lived there also proved significant.H An elderly person who describes herself as in poorhealth, therefore, might be no less depressed in assistedliving (even if her children preferred it) than in anursing home. A person who bad input into where he wouldmove and has had time to adapt to it might do as well in anursing home as in a small residential care home, otherfactors being equal. It is an interaction between theperson and the place, not the sort of place in itself, thatleads to better or worse experiences. “You cant just say,Lets put this person in a residential care home insteadof a nursing homeshe will be much better off,” Dr.Robison said. What matters, she added, “is a bination ofwhat people bring in with them, and what they find there.”I Such findings, which run counter to mon sense, havesurfaced before. In a multi-state study of assisted living,for instance, University of North Carolina researchersfound that a host of variablesthe facilitys type, sizeor age; whether a chain owned it; how attractive theneighborhood washad no significant relationship to howthe residents fared in terms of illness, mental decline,hospitalizations or mortality. What mattered most was theresidents physical health and mental status. What peoplewere like when they came in had greater consequence thanwhat happened one they were there.J As I was considering all this, a press release froma respected research firm crossed my desk, announcing thatthe five-star rating system that Medicare developed in xxto help families pare nursing home quality also has littlerelationship to how satisfied its residents or their familymembers are. As a matter of fact, consumers expressedhigher satisfaction with the one-star facilities, thelowest rated, than with the five-star ones. (More on thisstudy and the star ratings will appear in a subsequentpost.)K Before we collectively tear our hair outhow arewe supposed to find our way in a landscape thisconfusing?here is a thought from Dr. Philip Sloane, ageriatrician(老年病学专家)at the University of NorthCarolina:“In a way, that could be liberating forfamilies.”L Of course, sons and daughters want to visit thefacilities, talk to the administrators and residents andother families, and do everything possible to fulfill theirduties. But perhaps they dont have to turn themselvesinto private investigators or Congressional submittees.“Families can look a bit more for where the residents aregoing to be happy,” Dr. Sloane said. And involving thefuture resident in the process can be very important.M We all have our own ideas about what would bringour parents happiness. They have their ideas, too. A friendrecently took her mother to visit an expensive assistedliving/nursing home near my town. I have seen this placeit is elegant, inside and out. But nobody greeted thedaughter and mother when they arrived, though the visit hadbeen planned; nobody introduced them to the other residents.When they had lunch in the dining room, they sat alone at atable.N The daughter feared her mother would be ignoredthere, and so she decided to move her into a more welingfacility. Based on what is emerging from some of thisresearch, that might have been as rational a way as any toreach a decision.
