The influence of Latino cultural values on the perceived caregiver role of family members with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias
Latino cultural values influenced the role of caregiving and caregiving roles of family members with ADRD. Future research should consider these values as they affect different familial and health dynamics
Bailamos With mHealth Technology! Improving Physical Activity and Well-Being in Middle-Aged and Older Latinxs
Older Latinxs engage in lower levels of leisure-time physical activity (PA) compared with non-Latinx Whites. Latin dance is a culturally relevant type of leisure-time PA that may engage older Latinx populations, particularly when coupled with mobile health technologies (mHealth). This single group pre–post feasibility study described the PA and health outcomes of middle-aged and older Latinxs participating in BAILA TECH—an intervention that combi…
The Effects of the Bailamos TM Dance Program on Physical Activity Levels and Cognition of Older Latino Adults
Objective: To investigate the effects of the BAILAMOS TM dance program on physical activity (PA), cardiorespiratory, and cognitive health. Methods: A parallel, two-armed pilot study was conducted with 57 older Latinos randomized to the BAILAMOS TM dance program ( n = 28) or health education (HE) ( n = 29). We conducted two- and three-way repeated-measures ANOVAs. Results: BAILAMOS TM participants increased participation in leisure moderate-to-vig…

Association of physical activity levels and brain white matter in older Latino adults
Higher levels of PA, particularly higher leisure-time moderate-to-vigorous PA, might be associated with greater WM volume in select white matter regions key to brain network integration for physical and cognitive functioning in older Latinos. More research is needed to further confirm these associations
