초록

본 연구는 국민건강영양조사 제7기 3차년도(2018) 자료를 이용하여 한국 노인의 배우자 사별과 노쇠의 관계를 규명하기 위해 시도되었다. 연구 대상자는 1,609명이었고, SPSS Win 26.0 프로그램으로 복합표본 빈도분석, 기술통계, 교차분석과 로지스틱 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 주요 결과로 대상자의 일반적 특성(연령, 소득수준, 교육수준, 독거여부)과 건강행태·질환관련 특성(신체활동 실천여부, 스트레스 인지정도, 주관적 건강 인지정도, 고혈압·뇌졸중·관절염·우울증 진단여부)을 동시에 보정한 대상자의 노쇠는 배우자 사별여부에 따라 유의한 결과를 나타내지 않았으나 낮은 연령, 높은 소득수준, 주관적 건강 인지정도가 좋을수록, 관절염이 없을 때 노쇠할 확률이 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 토대로 배우자를 사별한 노인의 노쇠를 관리하기 위해 지속적인 개인, 가족과 사회의 노력이 필요하다.

This study was attempted to investigate relationship between spousal bereavement and frailty in the Korean older adults using data from the 7th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey(KNHANES VII-3, 2018).
