초록

본 연구는 2025년 한국이 초고령 사회로 진입함에 따라 노인의 우울감과 자아존중감이 노인 정신건강, 삶의 질 및 삶의 만족도에 미치는 영향을 분석하고, 이를 효과적으로 관리하기 위한 융합적 접근 방안을 제시하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 연구 결과, 노인의 우울감과 자아존중감은 노인 정신건강과 삶의 질, 삶의 만족도에 중요한 영향을 미친다. 우울감이 증가하면 삶의 질과 만족도가 저하되며, 자아존중감이 높아지면 우울감이 감소하는 경향이 있다. 특히, 사회적 관계의 축소는 우울감을 증가시키고 자아존중감을 낮추는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 노인의 삶의 질과 만족도를 향상시키기 위해서는 우울감과 자아존중감을 체계적이고 지속적으로 관리해야 하며, 이를 위해 국가 차원에서 통합적인 접근이 요구된다.

This study investigates the effects of depression and self-esteem on elderly mental health, quality of life, and life satisfaction, considering South Korea's transition to a super-aged society by 2025. The research aims to propose integrated strategies for effective management of these factors. The findings reveal that depression and self-esteem significantly impact elderly mental health, quality of life, and life satisfaction. Increased depression is associated with decreased quality of life and life satisfaction, while higher self-esteem is linked to reduced depression. Additionally, a reduction in social relationships is found to exacerbate depression and diminish self-esteem. To enhance the quality of life and life satisfaction for the elderly, it is crucial to manage depression and self-esteem systematically and continuously. Thus, an integrated, nationwide approach is needed for effective management.
