abstract="During a 1 year long investigation, 93 50-70 year old male persons took part in a special sports program. The comparison between the first and the second investigation showed a success of the training for several psychological dimensions in direction of less depression and less aggression, as well as a greater emotional stability, although results of the first investigation showed no pathologic deviation of personality structure of the participants. Comparing three groups; (sportsmen, former sportsmen, and people who never did sports before) it could be demonstrated that members of all three groups showed positive results concerning their personal traits, so that a positive coherence between sporting activities and less depression and more emotional stability became statistically significant.<p /><p>Language: de</p>",
