Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify factors influencing the outcome of psychosocial rehabilitation for persons with chronic mental illness and to suggest a hypothetical model of psychosocial rehabilitation which is based on the relationship between influencing factors and then to test its fitness empirically. Method: Data was collected from persons with a chronic mental illness using a self-report questionnaire, and from their case managers using an observed rating questionnaire. A total of 220 cases were used in the final analysis, and a hypothetical model was verified through covariance structure analysis using LISREL. Result: 1) The fitness indices of the model were $X^2=133.77$ (df=48, p=.00), GFI=0.93, AGFI=0.87, RMR=2.32, NNFI=0.95 and NFI=0.95. Twelve paths among fifteen proved to be significant. 2) Psychosocial rehabilitation was influenced directly by symptoms, daily living skill and self-concept, and was influenced indirectly by the psychosocial rehabilitation program service. Psychosocial rehabilitation accounted for 32% of variance of these factors. Conclusion: This study is expected to contribute to understanding the psychosocial rehabilitation phenomena. Besides it will provide basic information for developing strategies of bio-psycho-sociological interventions and evaluations in regard to influential factors of psychosocial rehabilitation.

본 연구는 정신장애인의 정신질환 발병 이후 생애경험을 '생애사적 진행과정구조'에 주목하여 재구성함으로써 발병이후 위기의 진행과 전환의 과정을 이해하고자 한다. 정신장애인 5명이 연구에 참여했으며, 수집된 자료는 Sch$\ddot{u}$tze의 생애사적 이야기식 인터뷰(narrative interview)분석에 의하여 이루어졌고 위기 상황의 전환을 중심으로 '발병과 혼란단계'와 '집중적 치료 재활단계로' 나누어 재구성하였다. 전자는 '질환에 압도당함, 고통스런 삶의 반복과 감내, 가족으로부터의 분리', 후자는 '정신보건법 제정과 지역사회정신보건서비스의 확대, 사회적 역할변화를 통한 자신의 재발견, 생애사적 잠재성을 깨닫게 해준 중요한 타인, 지역사회통합의 장애물 경험, 가족관계의 재통합, 발병이전의 삶에 대한 고찰을 통한 질병경험의 재해석, 미래에 대한 기대'라는 주제로 분석했다. 그리고 두 단계를 전체적으로 비교분석하였다.

본 연구는 지역사회 만성정신질환자를 대상으로 건강위험행위와 스트레스생활사건, 정신증상, 병식, 우울간의 관계 및 건강위험행위에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악하여 효율적인 만성정신질환자의 건강증진프로그램 개발을 위한 기초자료를 마련하고자 시도되었다. 연구의 대상은 D시와 C도에 위치한 정신보건센터와 사회복귀시설을 이용하고 있는 성인 만성정신질환자 255명이며 자료수집기간은 2011년 8월 1일에서 9월 20일까지였다. 수집된 자료는 실수, 백분율, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson 상관계수, 다중회귀분석을 이용하여 분석하였다. 연구결과 성별, 진단명, 스트레스 생활사건, 병식, 우울이 통계적으로 유의한 영향요인으로 나타났으며, 이들 전체 요인들은 만성정신질환자의 건강위험행위를 24% 설명하였다. 따라서 지역사회 만성정신질환자의 성별과 진단을 반영하여 병식교육과 스트레스 및 우울관리를 통해 건강위험행위를 효율적으로 관리할 수 있는 건강증진프로그램이 개발되어야 할 것이다.

사례관리의 수행요소가 지역거주 정신장애인의 삶의 질에 미치는 영향이 소비자 만족도에 의해 어떻게 매개되는지를 분석하였다. 분석대상은 지역사회정신보건서비스 기관 중 사례관리를 수행하는 18개 기관과, 이 기관의 서비스를 이용하는 381명의 정신장애인이다. 설문조사를 실시하였으며, 클라이언트 수준과 기관 수준의 자료를 동시에 고려하는 위계적 선형모형(HLM: Hierarchical Lineral Model)을 적용하여 검증하였다. 주요한 연구 결과는 실무자의 담당 사례량이 삶의 질에 직접적 영향을 주었다. 사례관리팀 접근은 소비자 만족도에 직접적 영향을 미친 반면, 소비자 만족도를 매개하여 삶의 질에 이르는 간접적 영향은 미미하였다. 적절한 사례량의 확보 및 사례관리자 확대, 팀접근의 유용성에 대한 실천적 함의를 제안하였다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop and evaluate a self-management program for community dwelling patients with chronic mental illness so that they could improve their daily living skills and interpersonal relationships. Methods: A nonequivalent control group pre-post test design was used. The participants with chronic mental illness were recruited from a community mental health center. Twenty-two participants were assigned to the intervention group and 19 to the control group. The self-management was provided by 8 trained nursing students, and consisted of 8 sessions including education and practice. Each session was composed of strategies to improve self-care of community dwelling patients with chronic mental illness. Baseline and post-intervention measurements were done using a daily living skill performance scale and interpersonal relationship instrument. Results: Scores for daily living skill performance were not statistically significant, but scores for interpersonal relationship were statistically significant. Conclusion: The results of this study show that the self-management program had a positive impact on patients with chronic mental disorders. Therefore, it is suggested that the program could be used as an effective nursing intervention for patients with chronic mental disorders being cared for in community mental health centers.

Improving quality of life can be achieved by rehabilitating one socially and restoring their sexual life. Holistic care for persons with disabilities means the rehabilitation nurse intervenes when problems of sexual function are discovered, observed, or expressed. However, most people with chronic illnesses and disabilities must confront prevalent myths about their sexual nature and abilities. These myths often have their basis in the notion, common in our society, that the only people who are sexual are those who are young and beautiful. People who are obese, old, or do not conform to current standards of sexual attractiveness are usually deemed as asexual or undesirable. These narrow sterotypes have been particularly damaging to physically or mentally disabled people. People with chronic illnesses and disabilities often have special needs regarding their sexual behavior. Most of us will confront chronic illness or disability in our own lives to some degree. In addition, illnss or disability can occur at any age. In this study, I discuss some of the special needs of people with chronic illnesses and disabilities and the methods of coping with those needs. I also discuss some of the sexual concerns that people with chronic illnesses and disabilities have in common, and the assessment of sexual function and nursing strategies through literature review.
