Purpose: This study was conducted in order to investigate the level of intimate partner violence (IPV), beliefs and attitudes toward IPV and depression in victims of IPV and to identify factors influencing their depression. Methods: This was a descriptive study using a questionnaire. The Woman Abuse Screening Tool was used for examination of IPV, and the tool developed by Saunders, Lynch, Grayson & Linz(1987) and Haj - Yahia (2003) was used for examination of beliefs and attitudes toward IPV. The CES -D Scale was used for evaluation of depression. Results: A total of 172 victims were recruited. The level of IPV was low ($1.36{\pm}0.30$ out of 3) and the level depression was mild depression ($11.57{\pm}11.30$, out of 60). Beliefs and attitudes toward IPV were not positive (2.51 out of 5). A significant relationship was observed between beliefs and attitudes toward IPV, level of IPV and depression. Factor influencing depression was physical abuse, and that was explained by 13.5% (F=3.600, p=.001). Conclusion: According to these results, depression was a significant symptom in victims of IPV, therefore, health care providers should recognize depression as a significant indicator of IPV and should evaluate women with depression regarding their experience with IPV.

본 연구의 목적은 발-반사 마사지가 지역사회 재가노인의 수면, 우울 및 변비에 미치는 효과를 검증하는 것이다. 본 연구는 비동등성 대조군 전후설계 유사실험연구이다. 연구대상자는 D광역시 소재 2개 노인복지관을 이용하는 65세 이상 노인 46명이다(실험군=24명, 대조군=22명). 실험군은 2주간 1회 20분씩 주 5회, 총 10회의 발-반사 마사지에 참여하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS 22.0 프로그램을 이용하여 서술통계, ${\chi}^2-test$, independent t-test, Pearson correlation coefficient로 분석하였다. 본 연구결과, 2주 후 발-반사 마사지에 참여한 실험군은 참여하지 않은 대조군에 비해 통계적으로 유의한 수면증진 (t=-5.60, p<.001), 우울감소(t=3.93, p<.001), 및 변비완화 (t=4.90, p<.001)효과가 나타났다. 따라서 발-반사 마사지는 재가노인의 수면증진과 우울 및 변비 감소에 효과적인 중재임이 확인되었다.

본 연구는 지역사회 거주 노인들의 통합돌봄욕구를 유형화하여 각 유형이 우울에 미치는 영향을 검증하고, 동시에 각 유형의 인구사회학적 특징을 파악하기 위해 실시되었다. 2017년 노인실태조사 자료로 65세 이상 노인 10,300명을 대상으로 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 만성질환 수, ADL/IADL, 거주환경 만족도, 사회활동/사회적 지지망으로 노인들의 돌봄욕구 수준을 유형화한 결과, '전반적 돌봄욕구 저집단', '사회적욕구 고집단', '복합 돌봄욕구집단'의 세 개 군집이 도출되었다. 둘째, '사회적욕구 고집단'에 비해 '복합돌봄욕구집단'은 고연령, 여성, 낮은 교육수준, 도시 거주라는 특성이, '전반적 돌봄욕구 저집단'은 저연령, 여성, 높은 교육수준, 가족동거라는 특성이 제시되었다. 셋째, '전반적 돌봄욕구 저집단'의 우울 수준은 '사회적욕구 고집단'에 비해 더 낮았고, '복합돌봄 욕구집단'의 우울 수준은 더 높은 것으로 나타났다. 분석 결과에 따른 실천적, 정책적 함의를 논하였다.

본 단면 연구의 조사 목적은 지역사회거주 여성 노인들을 대상으로 근감소증 실태와 일상생활능력, 영양상태, 및 우울과의 관련성을 조사하기 위함이었다. 연구대상자는 2014년 5월~7월 동안 B와 D광역시에 거주하는 65세 이상 여자 노인 90명을 대상으로 하였다. 연구도구는 신체계측(anthropometric measures), Mini-nutritional assessment instrument (MNA). ADL, IADL, MMSE, SGDS-K를 사용하였다. 연구결과. 노인들의 평균 연령은 74.2세이었고, 37.8%가 근감소증이 있었으며, 대부분 도움없이 독립적인 일상생활 능력을 가지고 있었고, 15.6%가 영양부실 위험이 있었으며, 12.2%가 우울증상을 나타내었다. 근감소증이 있는 노인들은 없는 노인들보다 수입과 교육수준이 낮았고, 혼자 사는 노인이 더 많았으며, 동반질환이 더 많은 것으로 나타났다. 근감소증이 있는 노인은 없는 노인들보다 영양상태가 불량하고, 우울점수가 높았으나 일상생활능력에는 차이가 없었다. 근감소증 예측요인은 종아리와 허벅지 둘레, 인지기능이었다. 결론적으로 65세 이상 지역사회거주 여성노인들은 종아리둘레, 허벅지둘레, 및 인지기능이 낮을 때 근감소증 위험이 높을 것이며, 이들 세 요인은 앞으로 근감소증의 조기발견을 위한 간이 지표로서 활용할 수 있을 것이다.
