Abstract

The purpose of this study is to develop the Korean version of Music-Related Quality of Life (K-MRQoL) for the elderly. The K-MRQoL consisted of Musical Ability, Attitude, Activity Frequency (PART 1) and Musical Ability, Attitude, Activity Important (PART 2). Each subcategory consists of Music Perception with 11 items and Music Engagement with 7 items. The validity and reliability of K-MRQoL were measured with Pearson's and Cronbach's alpha correlation coefficients and Independent t-test in total 30 elderly with normal hearing and 30 elderly with hearing loss from local welfare Centers and nursing homes. The correlation coefficients between total scores and PART 1 and PART 2 ranged from .701 to .948 and from .598 to .926, respectively. The internal consistency between total and Part 1 and Part 2 ranged from .846 to .931 and from .838 to .918, respectively. The test-retest correlations were .979, .970, and 979 for total, PART 1, and PART 2, respectively. The correlation between K-MRQoL and Quality of Communication Life Scale was .449. There were significant differences in total, PART 1, and PART 2 between the elderly with normal hearing and hearing loss. This indicates that the K-MRQoL can be used as a useful clinical tool to evaluate Music-related Quality of Life in the elderly with normal hearing or hearing loss.

음악은 일상생활의 어려움과 스트레스를 축소함으로 노인의 삶의 질에 긍정적인 영향을 미친다. 본 연구는 한국 노인들을 대상으로 음악지각과 참여와 관련된 한국어판 삶의 질 설문지를 개발하고자 한다. 한국어판 음악관련 삶의 질 설문지(Korean version of Music-Related Quality of Life, K-MRQoL)은 음악능력, 태도, 활동빈도(Part 1)과 음악능력, 태도, 활동중요성(Part 2)으로 구성되었고 각 하위범주는 11문항으로 구성된 음악지각과 7항목으로 구성된 음악참여로 구성되었다. 복지센터와 양로원의 난청 노인30명과 정상청력 노인 30명을 대상으로 피어슨, 크론바크 알파 상관계수와 독립 t 검사를 측정하었다. K-MRQoL의 전체점수와 하위범주(Part 1)간의 상관계수는 .701에서 .948이었고 하위범주(Part 2)간의 상관계수는 .598에서 .926이었다. K-MRQoL의 전체점수와 하위범주(Part 1) 간의 내적일관성은 .846에서 .931이었고 하위범주(Part 2) 간의 내적일관성은 .838에서 .918이었다. K-MRQoL의 전체 점수와 하위범주(Part 1과 2)의 검사-재검사의 상관계수는 각각 .979, .970, .979이었다. K-MRQoL과 의사소통 삶의 질척도(Quality of Communication Life Scale, QCL)와의 상관관계는 .449이었다. K-MRQoL 전체점수와 하위범주(Part 1과 2)는 건청과 난청 노인 간 통계적으로 의미있는 차이를 보였다. 따라서 한국어판 음악관련 삶의 질 설문지는 건청과 난청노인의 음악관련 삶의 질을 심층적으로 살펴볼 수 있는 유용한 임상적 도구임을 나타낸다.
