Abstract

This study aims to provide basic data for improved the level of subjective health awareness in the physical and mental aspects of prospective seniors by verifying the effect of self-esteem of pre-elderly on subjective health awareness and the mediating effect of interpersonal skills. For the analysis, data were collected through a survey of 270 prospective seniors aged 55 and over to 64 years old, who participated in the prospective elderly program operated by social welfare institutions in the metropolitan area, from February 16 to March 16, 2023, and SPSS WIN 25.0 and PROCESS MACRO were used. Frequency analysis, descriptive statistics analysis, and correlation analysis were conducted as analysis methods, and the mediating effect of interpersonal ability was verified through structural equation analysis, and the main analysis results are as follows. First, it was found that the self-esteem of the pre-elderly had a positive (+) effect on subjective health perception. Second, interpersonal ability showed a mediating effect in the relationship between self-esteem and subjective health perception of pre-elderly. Based on these results, it is significant in that it presents basic data for a successful and active retirement life in the future old age.

본 연구는 예비노인의 자아존중감이 주관적 건강 인식에 미치는 영향과 대인관계 능력의 매개효과를 검증하여 예비노년의 신체적·정신적 측면에서의 주관적 건강 인식 수준 향상을 위한 기초자료를 제공하는 데 목적이 있다. 분석을 위해 수도권을 중심으로 사회복지기관에서 운영하는 예비노인 프로그램 참여 55세 이상~64세 예비노인 270명을 대상으로 2023년 2월 16일부터 3월 16일까지 설문조사를 통해 자료를 수집하였으며, SPSS WIN 25.0과 PROCESS MACRO를 활용하였다. 분석방법은 빈도분석, 기술통계분석, 상관관계 분석을 실시하였고, 구조방정식 분석을 통해 대인관계 능력의 매개효과를 검증하였으며, 주요 분석결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 예비노인의 자아존중감은 주관적 건강 인식에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 에비노인의 자아존중감과 주관적 건강 인식 간의 관계에서 대인관계 능력은 매개효과가 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 향후 노년기에 활발하고 성공적인 노후 생활을 누릴 수 있는 기초자료를 제시하였다는 점에서 의의가 있다.
