Data was collected with self-reported questionnaires in order to measure health management, health status, and ADL. Data was analyzed by t-test, ANOVA, and stepwise multiple linear regression using SPSS/WIN 22.0. Results: ADL in this subject were different depending on their age, education, marital status, type of family, and average monthly living expenses. Multivariate analysis showed that age (${\beta}=-0.35$, p<.001), exercise ability (${\beta}=0.20$, p<.001), diabetes (${\beta}=-0.17$, p<.001), osteoarthritis (${\beta}=-0.15$, p<.001), caregiver (${\beta}=0.14$, p=.005), frequency of health management (${\beta}=-0.13$, p=.006), smoking (${\beta}=-0.11$, p=.019), hypertension (${\beta}=-0.10$, p=.027), and type of family (${\beta}=-0.10$, p=.036) were significantly associated with ADL. Overall, approximately 60.2% of total variability in ADL could be explained by the 11 variables in this model ($R^2=0.602$, F=32.06, p<.001). Conclusion: This study suggests that individualized health care should be continued for older, community-dwelling Koreans in order to improve their ADL. Moreover, we need to develop self-care programs and encourage them to participate in those programs.

우리나라는 지금 고령사회의 도전에 직면해 있다. 젊은 경제활동인구가 감소하고 노인인구가 크게 증가하는 고령사회에서는 전대미문의 노인문제가 제기된다. 노인 인구가 급작스럽고도 빨리 증가하는 사회는 고령화의 쇼크, 고령화 사회의 지진 등으로 불리는 미래사회의 위기를 경고하고 있다. 한국의 노인들은 여러 사회적인 요인으로 인해 제대로 교육을 받지 못한 집단으로 어느 구성원 보다 평생교육이 필요한 집단이며 노인들은 평생교육의 주요 대상자로 부각되고 있다. 현대사회는 문화수준의 향상과 함께 삶이 윤택해지고 삶에 대한 개인적인 욕구가 높아지면서 여가생활의 필연성이 강조되고 있고, 여가스포츠를 통해 단순히 스트레스만을 해소하기 보다는 그것을 통해 교육의 기회를 제공받고자 한다. 또한 노인 여가스포츠 활동은 21세기에 요구되는 노인상, 즉 주체적인 노인, 생산적인 노인, 봉사하는 노인, 정보화된 노인, 통합적인 노인으로 노인의 정체성을 확립하기 위한 중요한 수단이 되어야 하고 여가스포츠를 체계적으로 제공하는 전문 여가스포츠 프로그램이 평생 교육적 차원에서 이루어져야 할 것이다. 그러므로 노인의 평생 교육적 차원으로써 여가스포츠는 건강증진과 사회성 함양, 그리고 자아실현과 함께 노인의 삶의 질을 향상시키는데 큰 의미가 있다고 할 수 있으며, 21세기가 요구하는 자립적인 생활을 영위하며 남에게 의존하지 않고 당당하게 독립적으로 살아가는 디지털 시대의 성공적인 신(新)노인상을 정립 하는데 큰 의미가 있을 것이다.

본 연구는 Andersen과 Newman(1973)의 행동모델을 적용하여 지역사회 노인들의 경로당 이용에 영향을 미치는 요인을 규명하고, 이용자 만족도의 매개효과를 검증하여 경로당 이용 노인의 만족도 향상 및 경로당 운영 활성화를 위한 정책적·실천적 대안을 제시하고자 하였다. 연구대상자는 부산지역 2,283개소 경로당 이용 노인 578명이다. 연구결과, 경로당 총 이용기간에 영향을 미치는 요인은 선행요인 중 연령, 가능성 요인 중 경로당 유형으로 분석되었으며, 1주일간 경로당 총 이용일 수에 영향을 미치는 요인은 선행요인 중 성별, 연령, 교육수준으로 나타났다. 매개변수인 이용자 만족도에 영향을 미치는 요인은 선행요인 중 성별, 연령, 욕구요인 중 주관적 건강상태로 분석되었다. 이용자 만족도 매개효과 검증 결과, 연령과 경로당 총 이용기간 사이에는 부분 매개효과, 성별과 1주일간 경로당 이용일 수 사이에는 완전 매개효과, 연령과 1주일간 경로당 이용일 수 사이에는 부분 매개효과가 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 연구의 목적과 주요 결과에 따라 경로당 이용자 만족도 및 이용 활성화를 위한 정책적·실천적 제언은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 경로당 이용자 특성에 따른 프로그램 개발과 지원이 요구된다. 둘째, 경로당 유형 및 지역적 환경에 따라 경로당을 특성화 할 필요성이 있다. 셋째, 경로당 운영비 지원 기준 개선과 인상이 필요하다.
