简要总结
The absence of social relationships negatively affects physical, psychological, and social health. In other words, it alters people's quality of life and makes active aging difficult. The investigators have designed a study to reduce unwanted loneliness in people over 65 living in the community through multiple interventions (music therapy, health education, and physical exercise).
详细描述
The proposed study will involve 4 group sessions each week for a total of 13 weeks. The program will include the following activities:
Physical exercise adapted to the physical conditions of each participant. Total of 26 sessions (2 per week).
Health education workshops. A total of 12 workshops. These will include group training talks on the following topics: sleep hygiene, diet, and cognitive stimulation, among others.
Music therapy workshops. Through listening to songs, singing, dancing, guided relaxation with music, and group instrumental performance, the enjoyment and expression of feelings will be encouraged. There will be 1 session per week. Total 12 sessions.

结局指标
主要结局
Score on the Jong Gierveld Loneliness Scale
时间窗: 3 months
Social isolation was measured with the Jong Gierveld Loneliness Scale. The final score is the total score for the 11 items, with the lowest possible score being 0 (no loneliness) and the highest being 11 (severe loneliness). Three categories have been proposed based on the score: a score of 0-2 points = no loneliness; a score of 3-8 points = moderate loneliness; and a score of 9-11 points = severe loneliness.
次要结局
- Score on Goldberg Anxiety and Depression Scale(3 months)
