Abstract

This study explores the health behaviors and related situations of Korean low-income breast cancer survivors using in-depth interview. The study derives 95 concepts, 23 sub-categories and 12 categories in open coding. Illness experiences were categorized by behavioral, psychological, and social domains, cognitive were categorized by causal and destiny thought, emotions were categorized by negative, positive emotion, reserve capacity were categorized by internal and external domains and health behaviors were categorized by behavioral, psychological, and social domains. Understanding illness experience, cognitive, emotion, reserve capacity and health behaviors for Korean low-income breast cancer survivors will be useful in developing social welfare interventions and for enhancing health promotion.

본 연구는 질적연구방법을 활용하여 저소득층 유방암 생존자들의 건강증진행위 경험을 탐색하였다. 9명의 참여자를 대상으로 심층면담 후 자료를 분석한 결과, 95개의 개념, 23개의 하위범주를 발견하였으며, 신체행동적, 심리적, 사회적 영역의 암 관련 경험, 원인적 사고, 운명적 사고와 같은 인지지각적 요소, 부정적, 긍정적 차원의 정서, 내적, 외적 차원의 자원확보 역량, 신체행동적, 심리적, 사회적 영역의 건강증진 행위로 12개의 범주를 도출하였다. 특히 건강증진 행위를 촉진하거나 방해하는 요소들을 발견하고 이러한 요소들을 자원확보역량이라는 개념으로 범주화 하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 건강증진 행위촉진을 위한 방안을 논의 하였다.
