Abstract

This study was conducted to analyze the Ego Integrity, Subjective Pain, Subjective Health, Subjective Happiness and Social Support level of Community Dwelling elderly, and to analyze the variables that impact their Ego Integrity. Methods: A total of 250 elderly aged 60 years or above visiting a Senior Welfare Center in j city and j group of Jeonbuk were selected as subjects of this study for collection and analysis of data. Data were collected from January 8 to February 26, 2008 from 250 community-dwelling elders in Korea and subjected to descriptive analysis, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's Correlation Coefficient, and multiple regression analysis. Results: only economic strength was influenced by general characteristics. Additionally, Subjective Pain, Subjective Health, and Subjective Happiness and Social Support l were found to have a statistically positive correlation with Ego Integrity. Finally, the most influential variables on the elderly Ego Integrity were Social Support (${\beta}=.194$, p=.002), followed by Subjective Health (${\beta}=.149$, p=.040) and four variables explaining 10.8% of the elderly Ego Integrity. Conclusion: it is necessary to develop specific intervention programs to improve Social Support and Subjective Health among Community Dwelling elderly to make it possible to enable Ego Integrity.

본 연구의 목적은 노인의 주관적 통증, 주관적 건강, 주관적 행복감, 사회적지지, 자아통합감 정도를 파악하고, 자아통합감에 미치는 요인을 파악하고자 하였다. 연구를 위해 J시의 노인복지관을 이용하는 60세 이상 노인 250명을 대상으로 자료를 수집하여 분석하였다. 연구 자료는 기술통계, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's Correlation Coefficient, multiple regression analysis를 이용하여 분석하였다. 결과, 첫째, 일반적 특성 중 경제능력만 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 노인의 자아통합감과 주관적 통증(r=-.187, p=.003), 주관적 건강(r=.231, p<.001), 주관적 행복감(r=.164, p=.009), 사회적 지지(r=.207, p=.001)는 유의한 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 사회적 지지(${\beta}=.194$, p=.002), 주관적 건강이(${\beta}=.149$, p=.040), 이 자아통합감에 영향력이 있는 것으로 나타났으며 주관적통증과 주관적 행복감은 영향력이 없는 것으로 나타났다. 이들 네 개의 변수가 노인의 자아통합감을 총 10.8% 설명하는 것으로 나타났다. 그러므로, 노년기의 과업이며 성공적 노화인 자아통합감을 이룰 수 있도록 하기 위해서 노인의 사회적 지지를 향상시키고, 주관적 건강상태를 향상시키기 위한 노인의 중재 프로그램 개발이 필요하다.
