초록

본 연구의 목적은 노인의 건강관련 삶의 질에 대한 인구사회학적 및 건강관련 요인의 영향력을 성별에 따라 확인하기 위한 것이다. 이를 위해 제5기 2차년도 국민건강영양조사 자료를 이용하여 65세 이상 노인 1,598명의 자료를 SPSS 통계 프로그램을 이용하여 분석하였다. 연구결과 남자노인의 경우 교육수준과 월 소득, 활동제한, 주관적 건강상태, 만성질환 수가 영향요인이었고, 여자노인의 경우에는 연령, 활동제한, 주관적 건강상태, 우울, 스트레스가 영향요인이었다. 남녀노인 모두에서 활동제한과 주관적 건강상태가 건강관련 삶의 질의 강력한 영향요인이었고, 특히 남자노인과 달리 여자노인에서는 우울, 스트레스와 같은 정신 건강특성이 건강관련 삶의 질에 유의한 영향을 미쳤다. 따라서 향후 노인을 대상으로 건강관련 삶의 질 향상을 위한 프로그램을 기획할 때 이러한 노인의 성별 특성을 고려하여야 할 것이다.

Results: For male, the affecting factors on the HRQoL were education level, monthly income, and number of chronic disease. For female, affecting factors on the HRQoL were depression, stress, and age.
