Abstract

This purpose of this study was to survey pregnancy stress, self-esteem and depression in pregnant women and to identify factors influencing depression. Data were collected 154 pregnant women. Data were analyzed using ANOVA, t-test, Scheffe's test, Stepwise Regression Analysis, Pearson's correlation coefficient. There was statistically significant difference in pregnancy stress on variable such as planned pregnancy. There were statistically significant difference in self-esteem on variables such as religion, occupation, gestational age. There was statistically significant difference in depression on variables such as planned pregnancy. Pregnancy stress was positively correlated with depression. depression was negatively correlated with self-esteem. Self-esteem was negatively correlated with pregnancy stress. Factor influencing depression were self-esteem, planned pregnancy, pregnancy stress, which explained 30.2%. Findings provide useful information for further studies in antenatal care of pregnant women. Therefore, to promote emotional support of pregnant women, it is necessary to standardized antenatal education program.

본 연구 목적은 임부의 임신 스트레스, 자아존중감 및 우울 정도를 조사하고 그 변수들 사이의 관계를 규명하여, 임부의 우울에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악하는 데 있다. 본 연구는 154명의 임부를 대상으로 자료를 수집하고, 분석은 t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe's test, Stepwise Regression Analysis, Pearson's correlation coefficient를 이용하였다. 대상자의 임신 스트레스는 평균 61.17±13.84점(범위:27~135)으로, 계획된 임신인지에 따라 유의한 차이를 있는 것으로 나타났다. 대상자의 자아존중감은 평균 30.94±4.76점(범위:10~40)으로, 종교, 직업, 임신주수에 따라 유의한 차이를 보였다. 대상자의 우울은 평균 6.89±5.04점(범위:0~63)으로, 계획된 임신인지에 따라 유의한 차이를 보였다. 대상자의 우울은 임신 스트레스와 통계적으로 유의한 양적 상관관계를 나타냈고, 자아존중감과는 통계적으로 유의한 음적 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 임신 스트레스는 자아존중감과 통계적으로 유의한 음의 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 임부의 우울에 영향을 주는 요인은 자아존중감, 계획된 임신 여부, 임신 스트레스 순이었다. 본 연구결과는 산전 관리 시 임부의 임신 스트레스, 자아존중감 및 우울 등 정서적 요인 정도를 사정하고, 임부의 정서적 측면을 지지하기 위한 간호 중재 프로그램 개발 및 적용의 필요성을 제시한다.
