우리사회에 이혼률이 급증하고(조이혼률 : 1990년 1.1건$\longrightarrow$2002년 3.0건), 가족생활주기 중에 학령기 부부의 결혼만족이 가장 낮다는 연구결과들(서동인ㆍ정현숙, 1994등)이 제기되면서 어느 때보다 가족관계 또는 부부관계의 질적인 향상에 관한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 실제로 Mace(1979) 등은 가족향상에서 가장 중요한 것은 부부중심(couple-focused)이며 해동중심(action-oriented)이라고 하였다. 더 나가가 부부관계를 평가함에 있어서는 자기역할보다는 배우자역할 평가가 중요하다고 보고 (최규련, 1988; 서광희, 1992)되고 있다.

This study was done to identify the significant convergence factors of affecting depression of elderly women in rural area. A total of 161 elderly women aged 65 and over were collected and data were analyzed using multiple logistic regression with SPSS/WIN 21.0. The result indicated that 42.9% of participants were depressed. In logistic regression, significant factors of depression were age(p<.001, OR=1.146), economic status (p=.004, OR=.123), number of family member living together (p=.013, OR=.020), number of social activities (p=.012, OR=.436), number of disease diagnosed (p<.001, OR=3.847), visual function (p=.023, OR=3.867), family support (p=.048, OR=.707), which accounted for 68.6% of the variance. The results of this study can contribute to develop various convergence strategies to prevent the prevalence of depression of elderly women in rural area. Further studies are needed to confirm the level of contribution of visual disability to depression in rural older women.
