본 연구는 가구유형에 따른 장애노인 특성과 우울 영향 요인을 연구하였다. 분석자료는 한국장애인고용공단 2차 웨이브 3차 장애인고용패널조사 자료로 대상자는 608명이다. 통계분석은 기술통계, 카이스퀘어, 로지스틱 회귀분석 하였다. 연구결과 첫째, 단독가구 장애노인은 여성, 비수도권, 중증장애, 건강상태가 나쁜 경우, 경제수준이 낮은 경우, 일상생활도움이 필요한 경우, 차별경험이 높은 경우, 관계만족도가 낮은 경우, 사회생활참여를 하지 못하는 경우 분포가 높게 나타났다. 둘째, 장애노인 우울 영향 요인은 차별경험(p<.05), 사회활동참여(p<.05)이고, 다인가구 장애노인은 성별(p<.05), 거주지(p<.01), 건강상태(p<.001), 경제수준(p<.05)으로 단독가구 장애노인은 일상생활도움(p<.05)으로 나타났다. 장애노인의 우울 감소를 위해 차별경험 감소 및 장애인식개선, 보건의료 및 경제적 지원 등이 필요하다. 본 연구는 가구유형을 구분하여 연구를 진행한 점에서 의의가 있으며, 향후 종단적 연구를 제언한다.
