Abstract

Objective : The purpose of this study was to find out the stress of vascular conditions and leisure activities for the elderly and the effect of stress problems on the vascular conditions of the elderly. Methods : The study surveyed 172 elderly people, conducted a validity and reliability analysis to organize items of leisure activities, analyzed vascular conditions and stress for leisure activities, and conducted a regression analysis to analyze stress factors affecting the blood vessel conditions of the elderly. Results : First, there was a significant difference in comparing the average value of vascular conditions for leisure activities in the elderly (p=.012) and sports activity was the most stable in vascular conditions. Second, there was a significant difference in comparing the average value of stress for leisure activities of the elderly (p=.035) and rest and other activities were higher than other activities. Third, the effect of stress problems in older people on vascular conditions has been shown to be influenced by financial difficulties and health problems. Conclusion : Leisure activities in older people can act as a factor in changing the quality of life. Older adults can expect improvement of vascular conditions and reduction of stress through leisure activities, especially sports activities have a high relationship of vascular conditions, and rest and other activities have a high relationship with stress. As a result, this study confirmed the importance of selecting and continuing participation in leisure activities for the elderly.

목적: 본 연구는 노인의 여가활동에 대한 혈관상태와 스트레스를 알아보고 스트레스의 문제가 노인의 혈관상태에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 연구방법: 본 연구는 노인 172명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였고 여가활동 항목의 구성을 위해 타당도와 신뢰도 분석을 실시하였고 여가활동에 대한 혈관상태와 스트레스를 분석하였으며 노인의 혈관상태에 영향을 미치는 스트레스 요인을 분석하기 위해 회귀분석을 실시하였다 결과: 첫째, 노인의 여가활동에 대한 혈관상태의 평균값 비교에서는 유의미한 차이가 있었고(p=.012) 체육활동이 혈관 상태에서 가장 안정성이 높았다. 둘째, 노인의 여가활동에 대한 스트레스의 평균값 비교에서는 유의미한 차이가 있었고(p=.035) 휴식 및 기타활동이 다른 활동보다 높게 나타났다. 셋째, 노인의 스트레스 문제가 혈관상태에 미치는 영향은 경제적어려움과 건강문제에서 영향이 있는 것으로 나타났다 결론: 노인에게서 여가활동은 삶의 질 변화의 요인으로 작용할 수 있다. 노인은 여가활동을 통한 혈관상태의 개선과 스트레스의 감소를 기대할 수 있고 특히 체육활동은 혈관상태와 긍정적 관계가 있고 휴식 및 기타활동은 스트레스와 부정적 관계가 있다. 이로 인해, 본 연구는 노인의 여가활동 선정과 지속적인 참여의 중요성을 확인할 수 있었다.
