Quality of Life (general) - SF-36
Chapter 4 – Results
No significant changes were observed for any of the domains of SF-36
QoL measure between the two baseline testing (Pre 1 and Pre 2)
occasions (p = 0.06 – 0.91). Following the six week RT period there were
no significant changes in any SF-36 score at Post 1 or Post 2 compared to
baseline.
Physical Health and Mental Health
Following the six week RT intervention there was no significant change
for either the Physical Health or the Mental Health scores (Figure 12).
Unsurprisingly, there were also no significant changes in the four sub-
domain scores Physical Function, Role Physical, Bodily Pain and General
Health that comprised the Physical Health; and the four sub-domains
Vitality, Social Functioning, Role Emotional and Mental Health that
comprise the Mental Health score. No data for these eight sub-domains
are presented here, although it can be found in Appendix C.
