목적 : 본 연구는 노인의 일상 활동 범주에 따라 보유하고 있는 활동 수준을 확인해보고 일상 활동범주에 따른 차이를 비교해보고자 하였다. 연구방법 : 지역사회에 거주하면서 경제 활동을 하는 노인 30명과 경제 활동을 하지 않는 노인 30명, 시설에 거주하면서 활동을 할 수 있는 노인 30명을 대상으로 한국형 활동분류카드(Korea Activity Card Sort; K-ACS)를 사용하여 활동 보유 수준을 비교하였다. 또한 노인의 활동 수준과 상관이 있는 일반적 특성과 일상 생활 특성을 확인하였다. 결과 : 대상자의 일상 활동 범주에 따른 활동 보유 수준은 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었다(p<.001). 수단적 활동에는 각 활동의 범주에 따라 차이를 보이는 반면 여가활동과 사회활동에서는 세 그룹이 비슷한 양상을 나타내었다. 특히 여가 활동에서는 세 그룹 모두 휴식하기와 텔레비전 보기를 가장 많이 하고 있어 우리나라 노인의 여가 활동이 매우 제한적인 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 일반적 특성 중에는 학력, 결혼상태, 종교와 인지 수준이, 일상 활동 특성 중에는 받고 있는 치료와 규칙적인 운동 및 정기 모임 횟수가 노인의 활동 영역과 상관성이 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 결론 : 노인의 일상 활동 범주에 따라 활동 보유 수준은 차이가 있었으며 일반적 특성 및 일상 활동 특성이 노인의 활동 영역과 상관이 있음을 알 수 있었다. 이는 노인 작업치료 시 노인의 일상 활동에 영향을 미치는 특성과 활동보유 수준을 고려하여 클라이언트 중심의 중재 계획을 수립하고 치료적 활동을 계획하기 위한 기초자료가 될 수 있을 것이라 사료된다.

본 연구는 노인을 대상으로 구강 입체인지 검사를 시행한 후 그 특징을 알아보고 인지, 수단적 일상생활, 삶의 질과의 연관성을 확인하고자 하였다. 경기도에 거주하는 75세 이상의 노인 20명을 대상으로 구강 입체인지를 평가하고, 인지는 MoCA-K, 수단적 일상생활수준은 K-IADL, 삶의 질은 GQOL을 사용하여 평가 하였다. 구강 입체인지는 연령이 높아짐에 따라 정확성이 감소되며, 교육수준에는 영향을 받지 않았다. 여러 가지 도형 중 모서리가 명확하고 면적이 넓은 도형이 인식하기 좋은 것으로 나타났다. 구강 입체인지는 인지, 수단적 일상생활, 삶의 질과 관련성이 있어 본 연구를 통해 노인의 구강 입체인지는 인지를 포함한 노인의 기능 수준과 삶의 질을 예측할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 구강을 통한 노인의 신체적, 정신적 건강 관리의 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료되고, 대규모의 대상자를 통한 노인용 구강 입체인지 평가도구의 개발이 이루어져야 할 것이다.

Purpose: This study examined the mood state, activities of daily living, and attitude toward aging in the elderly according to the existence of a spouse and investigated the relation between these factors. Method: The subjects consisted of 190 elderly people, who were classified into two groups: those with and without a spouse. The data was collected from March to December 2004 using a structured questionnaire that included general characteristics, mood states, instrumental activities of daily living (IADL), and an attitude toward aging scale. The collected data was analyzed using the program SPSS, including descriptive statistics, $x^2-test$, ANOVA, Scheff's test, and the Pearson correlation coefficient. Result: 1. There were significant differences between the two groups in mood state (t=-3.349, p=.001), anxiety-depression (t=-3.350, p=.001), and anger (t=p=.003) in the mood state subscales, and in attitude toward aging (t=2.514, p=.013). 2. There was a significant positive correlation between vigor and IADL (r=.253, p=.012) in the elderly with a spouse. 3. When there was a spouse, there was a significant difference according to gender (t=2.587, p=.012) in IADL. Without a spouse, there were significant differences in mood states according to education level (F=3.315, p=.023), in anxiety-depression according to the presence of illness (t=2.156, p=.033), in vigor according to age (F=3.439, p=.020) and education level (F=5.285, p=.002), and in IADL according to monthly income (F=3.322, p=.023) and the presence of illness (t=2.172, p=.032). Conclusion: An individualized approach is needed for elderly people that considers living arrangements and the existence of a spouse.

Objectives: This study was undertaken to compare dietary life of the elderly living alone and in a family, and to compare differences based on gender, for the 2013-2016 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES). Methods: The subjects included 2,612 elderly people aged over 65 years who participated in the health survey, health examination and nutrition survey. Subjects on a diet therapy were excluded. This study analyzed the general characteristics, dietary habits, daily energy and nutrient intakes, CPF ratio, estimated average requirement (EAR), nutrient adequacy ratio (NAR) and mean adequacy ratio (MAR), index of nutrient quality (INQ), and food consumption of the elderly living alone and in a family. We also compared the differences based on gender. Results: Daily intake of food, water, dietary fiber, potassium, retinol, and riboflavin were low in the male elderly subjects living alone. The elderly living with family revealed higher NAR and MAR as compared to the elderly living alone. Although all MAR values were <1, the elderly living alone had lower values. Considering the intake of food, the consumption of seaweed, fish and shellfish, and oils (animal) was higher in elderly men living with families, whereas women living with families consumed more vegetables, fruits, seaweeds and seafood, as compared to their counterparts living alone. Furthermore, analyzing the foods consumed by the elderly people living alone, female subjects consumed more seaweed, milk and animal oil as compared to male subjects. Conclusions: The results of this study indicate that the elderly living alone have poor nutrient intake as compared to the elderly living with families. Based on this research data, we recommend that it is necessary to improve the health and nutritional status of the elderly living alone.

The subjects were assigned into two groups using paired matching on gender and age: experimental group (33 persons) and control groups (35 persons). The subjects in experimental group was put on the low intensity exercise program (exercising upper and lower limbs for 12 weeks using dumbbell and lead-packed weight). The results showed that the difference of physical and social behavior scores among activities before and after exercise were significantly higher in all variables of general characteristics, health habits and status, perception, and physical fitness.

본 연구는 농촌지역 독거노인을 대상으로 자살생각을 파악하고 자살생각에 영향을 주는 요인을 구명하고자 시행하였다. 연구대상자는 전라남도 G군에 거주하는 노인돌봄서비스를 제공받는 독거노인 206명을 대상으로 사회 인구학적 특성, 건강관련 특성, 가족지지와 자살생각과의 영향을 미치는 요인들을 살펴보기 위해 t-검정과 분산분석 그리고 상관분석을 이용하였고, 자살생각에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악하기 위해 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 그 결과 사회인구학적인 특성에서는 연령이 65-74세가 75-84세(${\beta}$=-.181, p=.029)보다 자살생각을 많이 하며 유의하였다. 건강관련특성은 신체적 건강관련요인으로 우울(${\beta}$=.269, p<0.001)과 스트레스의 정도(${\beta}$=.211, p=.005)가 높을수록 자살생각을 많이 하는 것으로 나타났고 유의하였으며, 신체적 건강관련요인으로 일상생활동작(${\beta}$=.228, p=.003)이 자살생각과 유의한 관련이 있었다.
