Abstract

Objective : This study was to examine the effects of general characteristics and fall efficacy on health care program needs through a comparative analysis of general characteristics and health care program needs for the elderly. Methods : In this study, we analyzed data from 118 elderly people with t-test and ANOVA for comparison of fall effectiveness and health care program requirements and with regression for general characteristics and effects of fall effectiveness on health care program needs. Results : The results were as followed: First, there was a significant difference in gender(p=.00), age (p=.00),educational background(p=.00), and existence of spouse(p=.00), and no significant difference in income(p=.17) based on fall efficiency according to the general characteristics. There was a significant difference in gender(p=.00), age(p=.00), educational background(p=.00), and income(p=.00) and no significant difference in existence of spouse (p=.46) based on health care program needs according to the general characteristics. Second, it was shown that the higher age, the higher the income, the higher the effectiveness of the fall, and in case of woman, the more significant the effect of the exercise program had.. The explanation was 56 percent. Third, the higher the age, the higher the income, and the higher the fall efficiency, the more meaningful the cognitive program demand. The explanation was 48 percent. Conclusion : The data from this study showed the importance of fall efficacy in older people with significantly higher risk of falls than in other age groups, and the need for exercise and cognitive management programs to prevent falls.

목적 : 노년의 노인을 대상으로 일반적인 특성에 대한 낙상효능감과 건강관리프로그램 요구에 대한 비교분석을 통하여 일반적 특성과 낙상효능감이 건강관리프로그램 요구에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 연구방법 : 본 연구는 노인 118명을 대상으로 일반적 특성에 따른 낙상효능감과 건강관리프로그램 요구 비교는 t-test와 ANOVA를 실시하였고 일반적 특성과 낙상효능감이 건강관리프로그램 요구에 미치는 영향은 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 결과 : 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 일반적 특성에 따른 낙상효능감은 성별(p=.00), 연령(p=.00), 학력(p=.00), 배우자의 유무(p=.00)에서 유의미한 차이를 보였고 수입(p=.17)에서는 유의미한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 그리고 일반적인 특성에 따른 건강관리프로그램 요구에서는 성별(p=.00), 연령(p=.00), 학력(p=.00), 수입(p=.00)에서는 유의미한 차이를 보였고 배우자의 유무(p=.46)에서는 유의미한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 둘째, 운동프로그램 요구에서는 성별은 여성, 연령은 높을수록, 수입은 높을수록 그리고 낙상효능감이 높을수록 유의미한 영향을 미친 것을 알 수 있었다. 설명력은 56%이었다. 셋째, 인지프로그램 요구에서는 연령은 높을수록, 수입은 높을수록, 낙상효능감은 높을수록 유의미한 영향을 미쳤다. 설명력은 48%였다. 결론 : 본 연구의 자료는 낙상의 위험도가 다른 연령대보다 월등히 높아지는 노인에게서 낙상효능감에 대한 중요성을 알 수 있었고 낙상을 예방하기 위한 운동관리프로그램과 인지관리프로그램의 필요성을 알 수 있었다.
