초록

본 연구는 성별에 따른 독거노인 삶의 질의 영향요인을 파악하고자 시행되었다. 2013-2015년 국민건강영양조사대상자 22,948명 중 독거노인 959명 대상으로 하였다. IBM SPSS 23.0프로그램을 이용하여 복합표본을 형성한 후 복합표본 통계로 자료를 분석하였다. 두 그룹 간 나이, 교육수준, 칼로리 섭취, 관절염유무, 무릎통증, 허리통증, 알코올섭취 빈도와 양, 흡연유무, 주관적 건강과 삶의 질에서 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 남성 독거노인 삶의 질의 유의한 영향요인은 경제상태, 관절염유무, 활동제한, 주관적 건강이었고 이들의 설명력은 50.5%이었다(p<.001). 여성 독거노인 삶의 질의 유의한 영향요인은 허리통증, 주관적 건강, 자살생각이었고 이들의 설명력은 41.4%이었다(p<.001). 그러므로 독거노인의 삶의 질을 향상시키기 위해서는 성별에 따른 적절한 중재를 제공할 필요가 있다.

This study was conducted to investigate the factors affecting the quality of life of elderly who live alone according to gender. The participants in this study were 959 elderly living alone from a total of 22,948 individuals studied in the 2013-2015 Korean national health and nutrition examination survey. IBM SPSS 23.0 was used to analyze the data. There were significant differences between the two groups in age, level of education, and amount of calorie intake. Economic status, presence of arthritis, presence of restrict activity, subjective health status had an influence on quality of life in men with an explanatory power of 50.5% (p < .001). Presence of back pain, subjective health status, suicidal ideation had an influence on quality of life in women with an explanatory power of 41.4% (p < .001). Therefore, in order to improve the quality of life of elderly living alone, it is necessary to provide appropriate intervention depending on gender.
