본 연구에서는 일상생활에서 노인들이 경험하는 연령주의를 측정하는 일상 속 연령주의 척도(Everyday Ageism Scale: EAS)를 한국어로 번안하고 타당화하였다. 이를 위해 만 60세 이상 성인 남녀 498명을 대상으로 온라인 설문을 진행한 후, 무선적으로 두 집단을 추출해 첫 번째 집단(198명)에서 탐색적 요인분석과 신뢰도 분석을 실시하였고, 두 번째 집단(300명)에서 확인적 요인분석 및 타당도 검증을 실시하였다. 먼저, 탐색적 요인분석과 확인적 요인분석을 실시한 결과, 원척도와 동일한 10개 문항, 3개 하위요인(연령주의적 메시지 노출, 대인관계에서 연령주의, 내면화된 연령주의)이 적절한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 한국어판 일상 속 연령주의 척도(The Korean Version of the Everyday Ageism Scale: K-EAS)의 내적 신뢰도, 수렴타당도, 준거타당도, 증분타당도도 모두 양호한 것으로 확인되었다. 구체적으로 대인관계에서 연령주의와 내면화된 연령주의는 노인차별 피해경험, 노화에 대한 부정적 자기 인식, 우울과 정적 상관이 있는 반면, 노화에 대한 긍정적 자기 인식 및 삶의 만족도와 부적 상관이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, K-EAS가 우울에 대한 명시적인 노인 차별 피해 경험 외에 추가적인 설명량이 있음을 확인했다. 마지막으로, 본 연구의 의의 및 한계점, K-EAS 활용과 향후 연구에 대한 제언을 제시했다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to identify risk factors of accidental falls by age in the Korean elderly. Methods: The study subjects included 10,242 community-dwelling elders aged 65 or over. The data were analyzed by logistic regression analysis. Results: The risk factors of accidental falls in the younger old group (aged 65~74) include fear of falling (OR=16.28, 95% CI: 12.03~22.03), depression (OR=1.24, 95% CI: 1.06~1.44), and hearing impairment (OR=1.20, 95% CI: 1.01~1.43). The risk factors of accidental falls in the older old group (aged 75~84) include fear of falling (OR=11.54, 95% CI: 7.04~18.93), muscle strength (OR=1.36, 95% CI: 1.15~1.60), number of chronic disease (OR=1.65, 95% CI: 1.09~2.50), and presence of spouse (OR=1.27, 95% CI: 1.06~1.51). The risk factors of accidental falls in the oldest old group (aged 85 years old or older) include fear of falling (OR=8.05, 95% CI: 1.85~34.98) and exercise (OR=2.91, 95% CI: 1.36~6.24). Fear of falling is defined as a common factor in the all age groups. Conclusion: Different strategies should be developed for age groups to prevent elderly falls with understanding of contributing factors of falls in each group.

Objectives: This study attempted to determine the influence of factors related to suicide attempts in the elderly. Data from a 2017 Community Health Survey were used to find 67,810 subjects aged 65 years or older. Methods: Cross-analysis and logistic regression analysis were conducted by dividing the suicide thought and suicide attempt experience groups. Results: In the group with subjective stress, suicidal thoughts were higher in women 2.748 times (p<0.01) and 1.917 times (p<0.001) in women. In terms of income level, the higher the income level, the lower the suicidal ideation experience. Suicide attempts were 0.708 times lower when mastication was not uncomfortable and 0.170 times lower when the patient was not experiencing depression (p<0.001). Conclusions: The correlation between oral dysfunction and suicidal thoughts and attempts in the elderly has been demonstrated, and it is expected to be used as baseline data for establishing an institutional study.

For the analysis, this study used total 72 theses verified by inputting the keyword 'laughter therapy' from 2007 to 2021. Research design, data and methodology: This study performed the development and analysis of keyword co-occurrence network, analyzed the types of researches through topic modeling, and verified the visualized word cloud and sociogram. The keyword data that was cleaned through preprocessing, was analyzed in the method of centrality analysis and topic modeling through the 1-mode matrix conversion process by using the NetMiner (version 4.4) Program. Results: The keywords that most appeared for last 14 years were laughter therapy, depression, the elderly, and stress. The five topics analyzed in thesis data from 2007 to 2021 were therapy, cognitive behavior, quality of life, stress, and the elderly.

이 연구는 노인의 건강증진태도와 생리적 지수에 대하여 클린다이어트 프로그램의 중재효과를 파악하고자 비동등성 대조군 전 후 실험설계로 2015년 6월 24일부터 2015년 9월 18일까지 12주간 실시되었다. 연구대상자는 대구광역시 C 노인대학에서 만성질환이 있는 65세 이상 노인 60명을 선정하여 실험군과 대조군으로 각각 30명씩 배정하였다. 클린다이어트 프로그램은 실험군에만 적용되었으며 웰니스, 건강행동, 주관적 건강감, 우울 및 생리적 지수(혈압, 혈당, TG/TC, BMI)에 대하여 실험군과 대조군의 사전 사후 차이를 비교하였다. 연구결과 실험군의 웰니스(t=7.069, p<.001), 건강행동(t=6.196, p<.001), 주관적 건강감(t=6.624, p<.001) 수준이 향상되었고, 우울(t=4.038, p<.001)은 완화된 변화를 보였다. 그리고 생리적 지수는 BMI(t=5.974, p<.001)에서만 감소된 것으로 분석되었다. 이와 같은 결과는 클린다이어트 프로그램의 중재효과를 입증한다. 따라서 노인에게 클린다이어트 프로그램을 적용하면 삶의 질을 높이는 총체적인 생활방식이나 건강을 유지하기 위한 생활양식 그리고 우울증 완화와 BMI관리에 효율적인 것으로 판단된다.
