초록

본 연구의 목적은 중년여성의 노화 도구를 개발하는 것으로 연구대상자는 대도시 중년여성 385명을 대상으로 수집하였고, 개발과정은 예비문항 개발, 내용 타당도와 신뢰성 검증, 최종 문항의 요인분석 및 신뢰도와 타탕도를 검증하였다. 요인분석 결과 본 도구는 9개의 요인으로 구성되었고, '자기성취감', '신체변화적응', '심리변화적응', '대인관계', '갱년기증상적응', '경제적 안정', '신체건강유지', '사회적 지지', '사회변화적응'으로 명명되었다. 본 연구에서 개발한 도구는 전체 설명변량이 64.03%로 충분하였으며, 전체 신뢰도도 Cronbach' ${\alpha}$값 .90으로 높았고, 우울과의 상관관계 분석에서는 부적 상관관계(r=-.69, p<.001)가 있는 것으로 나타나 동시타당도가 검증되었다. 본 도구는 높은 타당성과 신뢰도를 가지는 것으로 확인되어 중년여성의 성공적 노화를 측정하기 위한 도구로 유용할 것이다. 본 연구에서 개발한 도구는 반복 연구를 통해 추후 중년여성의 성공적 노화를 지지하기 위한 프로그램 개발의 기초자료를 마련하는데 기여할 것으로 사료된다.

The purpose of this study was to develop an assessment scale for healthy aging of middle aged women. The data were collected from 385 middle aged women in two large cities in Korea. The development processes of the scale were followed: Development of preliminary items; Verification of content validity and reliability; Factor analysis and criterion validity of final items. Results: Factor analysis resulted in the creation of the final scale, which consisted of 38 items that were grouped into 9 factors: self achievement, physical change adaptation, psychological change adaptation, interpersonal relationships, menopausal symptom adaptation, economic stability, physical health, social support, social change adaptation. The explanatory variance was 64.03%. The reliability of the scale was Cronbach's ${\alpha}=.90$. Correlation of the scale with healthy aging and depression, established its construct and concurrent validity was r=-.69, p<.001. The scale was confirmed to have a relatively high validity and reliability. The findings of the study can be useful as a measurement to evaluate healthy aging of middle aged women. Future researches with the scale will be helpful for basic data for the program development to support healthy aging of middle aged women.
