Abstract

This study aimed to identify the factors influencing depression in adults with physical disabilities through a secondary data analysis. The study analyzed data from 867 adults who reported having physical disabilities in the 2018 Panel Survey on Disability conducted by the Korea Disabled People's Development Institute. Descriptive statistics and logistic regression analysis were performed using SPSS 29.0 with a complex sample design. The cause of disability was acquired in 98.1% of the participants, and 53.8% of them reported experiencing depression. Self-esteem (OR=0.18, 95% CI=0.08-0.39) and disability acceptance (OR=0.17, 95% CI=0.08-0.38) were significant factors influencing depression in adults with physical disabilities. These findings suggest that interventions aimed at promoting disability acceptance and enhancing self-esteem may effectively alleviate depression in this population.

본 연구는 성인 지체장애인의 우울에 영향을 미치는 요인을 확인하는 것을 목적으로 한 이차자료 분석 연구이다. 2018년 한국장애인개발원의 장애인삶 패널조사에서 지체장애가 있다고 응답한 성인 867명을 대상으로 하였고, SPSS 29.0 프로그램을 이용하여 복합표본통계의 기술통계 및 로지스틱 회귀분석을 적용하였다. 지체장애가 있는 성인의 장애 발생 원인은 98.1%에서 후천적이었고, 53.8%에서 우울이 있었다. 지체장애인의 우울에 영향을 주는 요인으로는 자아존중감(OR=0.18, 95% CI=0.08-0.39)과 장애수용(OR=0.17, 95% CI=0.08-0.38)이 유의하였다. 따라서, 지체장애가 있는 성인의 우울을 감소시키기 위해서는 장애수용을 촉진하고 하고 자아존중감을 향상하는 중재가 이들의 우울을 완화하는데 효과적일 수 있음을 시사한다.
