Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify the factors affecting life satisfaction in patients with alcohol use disorder. Participants were recruited at outpatient treatment facilities in two cites. Data were collected from October 1 to December 30, 2016, using self-report questionnaires. Abstinence self-efficacy, family support, and life satisfaction were investigated. 152 patients with alcohol use disorder participated in this study. Mean score for life satisfaction was 3.24. Life satisfaction had a positive correlation with abstinence self-efficacy and family support. Factors affecting life satisfaction in these men were abstinence self-efficacy. Findings indicate that abstinence self-efficacy and perceived mental health satisfaction are important variables influencing life satisfaction in patients with alcohol use disorder. Development and provision of intervention programs to increase abstinence self-efficacy and perceived mental health satisfaction will help to increase life satisfaction in patients with alcohol use disorder.

본 연구는 알코올 사용장애 환자의 삶의 만족도에 관련된 요인을 파악하여, 향후 알코올 사용장애 환자의 삶의 만족도를 증진을 위한 기초자료를 제시하고자 한다. 본 연구의 대상은 B시와 G시에 소재한 알코올 전문병원에서 알코올 사용장애로 진단받고 치료를 받는 152명으로, 2016년 10월 1일부터 12월 30일까지, 만족도, 자족지지, 금주 자기효능감, 삶의 만족도를 설문 조사하였다. 연구결과는 삶의 만족도는 3.24점으로 직업이 있는 경우, 알코올로 인한 경제적 손실이 없는 경우, 금주 자기효능감이 높을수록, 정신건강에 만족할수록 삶의 만족에 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 알코올 사용장애 환자의 삶의 만족도를 증진을 계획할 때, 직업재활과 금주 자기효능감을 고려한 전력이 도움이 될 것임을 시사한다.
