본 연구는 기존 노인돌봄서비스의 사회적가치지향성과 서비스 이용 노인의 안녕감을 평가하고, 돌봄 욕구에 대한 수요를 확인하여 우리나라 노인돌봄 정책의 발전 방향을 모색하고자 실시되었다. 2019년 10월 기준 3개월 이상 노인돌봄기본서비스를 이용한 노인 1,501명을 편의표집하였으며, 빈도분석 및 기술통계분석, t-검정, 분산분석 등을 실시하였다. 분석 결과 돌봄 서비스의 사회적가치지향성은 평균 90.93점이며, 돌봄 서비스 이용 노인의 안녕감은 71.29점으로 나타났다. 분산분석 및 사후분석 결과 사회적가치지향성을 보다 높다고 인식한 집단에서 노인들의 안녕감이 통계적으로 유의미하게 높았다. 한편 돌봄 서비스 중단 시 우려되는 점에 대해 "외로움", "고독사", "안전" 등의 키워드가 도출되었으며, 향후 필요한 서비스로 '일상생활 지원 서비스'에 대한 욕구가 가장 높았다. 본 연구결과를 토대로 노인돌봄서비스의 발전 방향 모색 및 노인돌봄 체계 구축에 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

이 연구에서는 여성 독거노인의 웰빙을 증진하기 위한 프로그램을 개발하고 효과를 검증하였다. 프로그램은 자기노출, 후회다루기, 원한감정 처리, 용서, 감사 및 회복탄력성을 중심으로 삶과 행복의 의미를 탐구하도록 구성하였다. 본 프로그램을 운영하기 전에 6명의 여성 독거노인에게 파일럿 프로그램을 적용하며 그 효과를 예측하고 프로그램을 보완하였다. 프로그램 효과를 검증하기 위하여 11명의 여성 독거노인으로 구성된 실험집단 외에도 활동 위주의 프로그램에 참여한 11명을 비교집단으로 하고 또 다른 12명으로 통제집단을 구성하였다. 연구 결과, 여성 독거노인이 웰빙 증진 프로그램에 참여한 후 인간관계에서의 후회와 자신에게 피해를 준 사람에 대한 원한 수준이 감소하였고 자기를 노출하는 수준은 증가하였다. 본 연구에서 개발한 웰빙 증진 프로그램에 참여한 여성 독거노인의 불안, 외로움 및 노화에 대한 인식 수준 모두 감소하여 노년기 주관적 웰빙 수준이 증진되었다. 또한 프로그램 참여 후 부정정서는 감소하였으나 삶의 만족과 긍정정서 수준은 증가하였으며 행복감도 더 느끼게 되었다. 이런 모든 변화는 통제집단은 물론 비교집단에서도 나타나지 않았다. 이런 결과는 본 연구에서 개발한 여성 독거노인 웰빙 증진 프로그램이 효과가 있어 노인복지관인 상담센터 등과 같은 기관에서 활용할 수 있음을 시사한다.

본 연구는 노인의 죽음불안이 자아통합감에 미치는 영향을 알아보고, 죽음불안과 자아통합감의 관계에서 심리적 안녕감의 매개효과를 검증하였다. 이를 위해 서울 및 경기 지역 노인 관련 시설에 거주하는 65세부터 94세까지의 노인 254명을 대상으로 2020년 9월 1일부터 같은 해 11월 30일까지 설문을 시행하였고, 측정도구로는 죽음불안 척도, 심리적 안녕감 척도, 자아통합감 척도를 사용하였고, Baron·Kenny(1986)의 3단계 매개효과 분석 방법을 활용하였다. 연구의 결과는 첫째, 죽음불안이 자아통합감에 미치는 영향력은 통계적으로 유의하였다. 둘째, 적용한 결과, 죽음불안과 자아통합감 간의 관계에서 심리적 안녕감이 완전매개 효과를 갖는 것으로 연구 결과가 나타났다. 이 연구에서는 노인의 자아통합감 문제를 효과적이고 긍정적으로 다루기 위해서는 노인의 죽음불안과 함께 노인의 심리적 안녕감 역시 간과하지 않아야 한다는 것을 밝혔다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop a self-transcendence enhancement program and examine its effect on self-transcendence, spiritual well-being, and psychological well-being in elderly women who live alone. Methods: A self-transcendence enhancement program was developed through theory, literature review, and in-depth interviews. The theoretical framework came from the Psychoeducational Approach to Transcendence and Health intervention model based on Reed's middle-range theory of self-transcendence. The program consisted of multiple modalities in a structured, theory-based program lasting for eight weekly sessions. Using a single-group pretest-posttest design, the program was tested on a group of 40 elderly women aged 75 to 84 years living alone in Daejeon, Korea. Participants completed self-reported study questionnaires before and after the program at the elderly welfare center. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 24.0, with significance level set at .05. Paired t-test was used to compare mean differences before and after the program. Results: The mean age of the study participants was 79.1 years. After completing the program, the participants showed higher levels of self-transcendence (t=8.78, p<.001), overall spiritual well-being (t=8.30, p=.002), religious spiritual well-being (t=1.79, p=.040), existential spiritual well-being (t=6.75, p=.002), and positive affect (t=3.77, p=.001) than they did before the program. They also reported lower levels of depression (t=-7.59, p<.001) and negative affect (t=-6.15, p<.001). Conclusion: The self-transcendence enhancement program developed in this study may be effective for improving the level of self-transcendence in elderly women living alone and helping them to attain spiritual and psychological well-being.

This study is to find complementary way of improving the project, and the results of the study are summarized as follows. First of all, the sustainable and practical strategies of the health care for the rural elderly must be adopted. The elderly people's mutual care system can be a good option for improving the existing project. Secondly, the cooperative heath care system must combine with this project. In this regards, health cooperative federation system can be also a challenging option. The beneficially activity of rural elderly people, which is a component of this project, must be linked with rural social enterprise or community venture. The local experts or capable men of various fields including family, the aged problem, social welfare, and regional development, must be appointed, and the support system enables them to do their jobs actively in the Senior Well-being Villages Project as well as other community works.
