Promoción del envejecimiento activo: efectos del programa «Vivir con vitalidad»®

both programmes produced positive and significant changes in several behavioural indicators. Changes in the expected direction were observed in the experimental groups (in comparison with the control group) in the frequency of activities, as well as in opinions on ageing and old age. Significant differences were found in life satisfaction, nutrition and regular physical exercise in the multimedia group. No significant changes were found in social relationships or in health in either of the experimental groups. The results of this study are discussed in light of research on active and healthy ageing published in the literature.
