Due to the global trend of aging, the health problems of the elderly have become a worldwide social problem. The World Health Organization (WHO) (2014) stated that physical activity or physical inactivity impacts health. Accordingly, this study explored the correlation among exercise motivation, constraints, and healthy aging in people over 65 years old in Hsinchu County in Taiwan. In this study, a paper questionnaire was utilized for collecting data. In total, 580 questionnaires were distributed, and 468 were returned. Thus, the recovery rate was 80.7%. Further, 25 incomplete questionnaires were removed, so the questionnaires which could be used for analysis numbered 443 in total.

520 $a Due to the global trend of aging, the health problems of the elderly have become a worldwide social problem. The World Health Organization (WHO) (2014) stated that physical activity or physical inactivity impacts health. Accordingly, this study explored the correlation among exercise motivation, constraints, and healthy aging in people over 65 years old in Hsinchu County in Taiwan. In this study, a paper questionnaire was utilized for collecting data. In total, 580 questionnaires were distributed, and 468 were returned. Thus, the recovery rate was 80.7%. Further, 25 incomplete questionnaires were removed, so the questionnaires which could be used for analysis numbered 443 in total.
520 $a In this study, statistical analyses were performed using the Statistical Product and Service Solutions (SPSS) 19.0 Windows statistical package. Statistical analyses included descriptive statistics; a t-test and one-way-ANOVA were also used to investigate whether there were significant differences among the demographic variables and factors of elderly exercise motivation, constraints, and healthy aging. In addition, a Pearson's product-moment correlation analysis method was used to explore the correlation among elderly exercise motivation, constraints, and healthy aging; a multiple regression method was used to determine whether elderly exercise motivation and constraints can effectively predict healthy aging.
520 $a The conclusions of this study were as follow:
520 $a 1. The research objects of this questionnaire were comprised from a group of people with slightly more males than females; the primary age range was 65-70. Most participants lived in urban parts of the city. The group's primary education level was elementary school or below. Most of the group members were married and living with their families. Most were retired or otherwise without occupation; their general income was under NT $10,000 per month.
520 $a 2. As it related to the current exercise behavior and health status of the participants, most engaged in regular exercise, primarily in the vicinity of their homes, and walked with friends. At present, most of participants have good health status.
520 $a 3. As it related to their exercise motivation status, the highest motivation factor was psychological. The lowest motivation was the social interaction factor. Based on the status of the exercise constraints, the biggest obstacle was the resource constraint. On the other hand, the minimum obstacle was interpersonal constraint. As it related to the benefits of healthy aging, a primary factor was social/familial relations. The learning factor was the lowest scoring benefit.
520 $a 4. There were significant differences between exercise motivation and two demographic background variables in particular: area and education. In addition, there were significant differences between exercise constraints and the factor of marital status. Finally, there were differences between healthy aging and the demographic variables of gender, age, and area.
520 $a 5. There was a negative correlation between exercise motivation and exercise constraints. Also, there was a positive correlation between exercise motivation and healthy aging. In addition, there was a negative correlation between exercise constraints and healthy aging.
520 $a 6. The factors of social interaction and health can effectively predict healthy aging. The researcher proposes strengthening the exercise motivation and reducing the exercise constraints of older adults in Hsinchu County to aid in healthy aging. At the same time, the community needs to promote lifelong education in exercise and health, and to enhance older adults' ability to learn and be aware of mental health by increasing their social participation opportunities. To this end, the researcher has provided suggestions for government sectors, private enterprises, older adults, and future study.
