초록

본 연구의 목적은 장애인의 보행 보조 기구의 사용 능력에 따른 보행 보조 기구의 사용과 일상생활 수행정도를 비교하는 것이다. 연구자료는 2014년 한국복지패널 표본에서 추출하였다. 전체 435,947 자료를 교차분석과 t-검정을 이용하여 분석하였다. 연구 결과, 독립적으로 보행 보조 장치를 사용할 수 없는 장애인들이 장애정도가 더 심하고 일상생활 수준도 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 사회참여 수준과 여가활동 수준도 역시 비교그룹에 비해 독립적으로 사용하는 그룹에서 현저히 낮았다. 보행보조기는 장애인의 보행보조기 사용에 있어 장애인의 독립성 수준에 따라 맞춤형으로 해야 한다는 결론이 도출되었다.

This study compared the utility of walking aids, and activities of daily life depending on the ability of people with mobility disabilities to use walking aids. Data were extracted from the Korea Welfare Panel Study in 2014. Data of 435,947 individuals were analyzed using chi-square and t-tests. The findings from this study showed that disabled persons who cannot use walking aids independently were more likely to have a severe disability level and a lower level of daily activities than the independent group. The level of social participation and leisure activities were also significantly lower in the dependent than the independent group. Therefore, walking aids should be tailored for individuals depending on their level of independence for using walking aids.
