Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between physical activity, diet and mental health of elderly and to use the study as basic data for a program development for elderly. This was a secondary data analysis study using the 2015 National Health and Nutrition Survey and the study subjects included 1,484 individuals aged 65 and over. The results showed that depression and stress perception in young-old were higher than old-old's and the suicidal ideation rate of old-old was higher than young-old's. In case of eating patterns, 'poor eating' in old-old was higher than young old's. Regression analysis showed that middle-intensity physical activity and eating patterns were associated with mental health of the elderly. Based on the results, it is necessary to develop a differentiated nursing intervention program suitable for the elderly by age.

본 연구의 목적은 우리나라 만 65세 이상 노인의 연령별 신체활동 및 식생활과 정신건강의 관련정도와 영향요인을 파악하여 노인의 정신건강에 긍정적으로 대처할 수 있는 요인을 확인하고, 노인건강프로그램 개발의 기초자료로 활용하기 위함이다. 본 연구는 2015년도 국민건강영양조사결과를 기초자료로 한 이차자료 분석연구이며, 우리나라 만 65세 이상의 노인 1,484명을 대상으로 하였다. 자료분석은 IBM 23 ver. SPSS를 이용하였다. 본 연구 결과 전기노인은 정신건강변수의 세부항목 중에서 우울감과 스트레스 인지가 높았으며. 후기노인은 자살생각이 높았다. 식생활형편은 전기노인보다 후기노인에서 '음식섭취 부족' 이 높았다. 회귀분석 결과 노인의 식생활 형편, 중강도 신체활동이 노인의 정신건강과 관련성이 있는 것으로 보고되었다. 연구결과를 토대로 세분화된 연령대에 적합한 차별화된 간호중재 프로그램개발이 필요하다.
