Abstract

목적: 본 연구는 65세 이상 농업인과 비농업인의 노화에 따른 취약성을 파악하고 차이를 비교 분석하고자 하였다. 방법: 본 연구는 단면 연구로서 강원도에 거주하는 고령의 농업인 29명과 비농업인 25명이 연구에 참여하였다. 노화에 대한 취약성 평가를 위해 노쇠, 신체 구성, 인지·신체 기능, 심리 상태를 검사하였다. 결과: 집단 간 유의한 차이가 있었던 배우자 유무를 보정하여 편 상관 분석한 결과, 농업인에서만 나이와 취약성 요소 간 유의한 상관관계가 있었으며, 편 상관 계수를 비교하였을 때 body mass index(BMI, r = -0.625 vs 0.026, P < 0.01), 우울도(r = 0.521 vs -0.046, P < 0.05)에서 유의한 차이가 있었다. 결론: 고령의 농업인과 비농업인의 노화에 대한 취약성을 비교하였을 때 나이와 취약성 요소 간 유의한 상관관계는 농업인에서만 나타나 비농업인과는 차별적인 패턴을 보였다. 이러한 결과는 농촌의 고령 농업인에 대하여 건강한 노화를 위한 예방 및 관리 전략이 필요함을 시사한다.
