dc.description.abstract | Recent research shows that tango dance is an absorbing and effective strategy to reduce levels of depression, while also increasing well-being. This study investigates the feasibility, acceptability, and adherence to a tango programme for individuals with age-related macular degeneration (ARMD). Depression is closely intertwined with the ARMD diagnosis, since the loss of central vision has a profoundly negative impact on the person's quality of life. Seventeen participants were randomised to tango dance (1.5 h, 2 times/week for 4 weeks) or wait-list control condition. Demographic questions and 'Visual Function Questionnaire' were taken at pre-test. Self-rated symptoms of depression, self-esteem, and satisfaction-with-life were assessed at pre-test and post-test. Tango group participants showed significant reductions in depression and significantly increased satisfaction-with-life and self-esteem at post-test relative to the controls, and reported physical improvement, including increased balance. Tango dance was demonstrated to be a feasible and positive activity for this population. | en |
