Abstract

This study examined the relationship between resilience, emotional work, and attitudes toward caregivers caring for the elderly. Data collection was conducted from November 01, 2018 to December 31, 2018. The collected data were analyzed using the SPSS Win 21.0 program. The attitudes toward caring for geriatric subjects were $3.56{\pm}.90points$ out of 5, $3.23{\pm}.74points$ out of 5 for emotional work, and $3.94{\pm}.40points$ out of 5 for resilience. The attitudes toward caring for geriatric patients were related to resilience (r= .294, p<.001). Resilience (${\beta}=.360$, p= .002) and work type (${\beta}=-.282$, p= .001) had a significant effect on the attitudes toward caring for the elderly (F=7.5355, p<.001). The explanatory power of these variables was 15.6%. The results of this study suggest that interventions may be necessary to improve the attitudes of the caregiver toward caring for the elderly.

본 연구목적은 요양보호사를 대상으로 하여 감정노동, 회복 탄력성이 노인 돌봄 태도에 미치는 요인을 파악하고, 요양보호사의 노인에 대한 긍정적인 태도 형성 및 유지를 위한 전략을 제공하고자 시행된 조사연구로 D시, K도 요양보호사 142명을 대상으로 구조화된 설문지를 이용하여 시행되었다. 결과 분석 프로그램은 SPSS/WIN 21.0 program을 이용하여 기술통계, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson Correlation coefficient, Multiple regression analysis를 이용하였다. 연구결과 노인 돌봄 태도는 $3.56{\pm}0.90$점, 감정노동은 $3.23{\pm}0.74$점, 회복 탄력성은 $3.94{\pm}0.40$점이었다. 노인 돌봄 태도는 회복 탄력성(r= .294, p<.005)과 유의한 정적(+)상관을 보였고, 노인 돌봄 태도의 설명력은 15.6%로 회복 탄력성(${\beta}=.360$, p= .002), 근무 형태(${\beta}=-.282$, p= .001)가 요인으로 나타났다. 본 연구결과 요양보호사들에 관한 근무형태가 안정적일수록 자신의 직무인 노인 돌봄 태도가 증가하고 있음을 보여주고 있다. 또한, 어려운 상황을 스스로 이겨낼 수 있는 회복 탄력성에 관한 프로그램을 활용하여 이들에게 미치는 영향을 파악해 볼 필요성이 있다.
