Purpose: This study aimed to identify the factors influencing the wellness of call center employees. Methods: From December 2018 to October 2019, a cross-sectional study was conducted with 155 workers recruited from the call centers in Seoul, South Korea. Data were collected using self-administered questionnaires. The questionnaires were used to measure the following scales: Korean occupational stress scale, emotional labor scale, work-life balance scale and wellness scale. Using the SPSS 26.0 program, the descriptive statistics, independent t-test, ANOVA, correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis were conducted. Results: The mean score of the wellness level of call center employees was 3.05 out of a maximum of 5.00. More wellness level of call center employees was associated with gender, psychiatric diagnosis, and call characteristics. A multiple regression analysis indicated that the total scores on the wellness scale were predicted by call characteristics, occupational stress and work-life balance, with an explanatory power of 42.2%. Conclusion: Study findings show that it is necessary to promote wellness in call center workers with differentiated strategies according to call characteristics, occupational stress and work-life balance. This implies that it is necessary to understand the call characteristics and patterns of workers and to provide an innovative wellness program tailored to individual characteristics for an effective management of the emotional labor and occupational stress.

본 연구는 한국의 일반 성인을 대상으로 삶의 중요 영역에서의 웰니스(wellness) 추구 행동을 측정하기 위한 척도를 개발하고 타당도를 검증하였다. 웰니스 척도개발을 위하여 문헌 검토, 전문가 인터뷰, 심층 인터뷰, 개방형 설문 1, 2차를 거쳐서 도출된 31개 요인, 182문항은 최종 10개 요인, 99문항으로 선정하였다. 한국의 일반 성인 351명을 대상으로 한 예비조사 결과의 탐색적 요인분석을 통해 10개 요인 58문항을 도출하였고, 각 요인에서 중요한 개념을 반영한 문항들을 일부 수정해서 10개 요인 63문항으로 본조사를 실시하였다. 667명을 대상으로 진행된 본조사에서는 본 검사의 구성개념 타당도를 검증하기 위해 전체 표집을 두 집단으로 나누어 한 집단은 탐색적 요인분석을 하고, 또 다른 집단은 확인적 요인분석을 하였다. 탐색적 요인분석 결과 최종적으로 10개 요인(일, 공동체, 가족, 타인, 경제력, 자아존중, 여가, 신체 건강, 영성, 자기 성장) 63문항을 도출하였으며, 구조방정식 모형을 이용한 확인적 요인분석에서는 모형적합도 기준을 충족하고 있는 것을 검증하였다. 도출된 웰니스 척도와 그 하위요인들이 실제로 웰니스를 측정하는지를 검증하기 위하여 정신적 웰빙 척도(K-MHC-SF)와 웰니스 지표(Wellness Index for Workers)를 사용하여 수렴 타당도가 검증되었다. 준거 관련 타당도 검증을 위해 주관적 행복감(Subjective Happiness Scale)과 삶의 만족 척도(Satisfaction with Life Scale) 변인과 요인들 간의 관계를 분석한 결과 유의한 상관으로 나타났다. 다중회귀분석을 통해 각 경로에 유의성을 확인한 결과 웰니스 척도의 '자아존중' 은 주관적 행복감과 삶의 만족감에 가장 중요하게 영향을 미치는 요인으로 확인되었다. 마지막으로 본 연구 과정과 결과에 대한 논의와 학문적 의의 및 실무적 의의, 그리고 제한점과 미래 연구 방향을 제시하였다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop a wellness index for workers (WIW) and examine the validity and reliability of the WIW for assessing workers' wellness. Methods: The developmental process for the instrument included construction of a conceptual framework based on a wellness model, generation of initial items, verification of content validity, preliminary study, extraction of final items, and psychometric testing. Content validity was verified by 4 experts from occupational health nursing and wellness disciplines. The construct validity, convergent validity and discriminant validity were examined with confirmatory factor analysis. The reliability was examined with Cronbach's alpha. The participants were 494 workers from two workplaces. Results: Eighteen items were selected for the final scale, and the results of the confirmatory factor analysis supported a five-factor model of wellness with acceptable model fit, and factors named as physical emotional social intellectual occupational wellness. The convergent and discriminant validity were also supported. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient was .91. Conclusion: The results indicate that the WIW is a valid and reliable instrument to comprehensively assess workers' wellness, and to provide basic directions for developing workplace wellness program.

행복은 개인들이 추구하는 삶의 가장 중요한 목적이라고 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 행복 증진을 위해서 개인들이 스스로 자신의 웰니스를 점검하고 관리하는 것이 필요하다고 보고, 셀프 라이프코칭 앱의 웰니스 증진 효과에 대한 예비 연구를 진행하였다. 이를 위해, 총 36명의 참여자를 실험집단(1·2)과 통제집단에 무선배정하고, 실험집단에는 연구용 앱을 활용해 4주간 셀프 라이프코칭을 수행하도록 하였다. 실험처치 중 주간 피드백을 실험집단1에는 제공하고, 실험집단2에는 제공하지 않았다. 종속변인으로 노동자를 위한 웰니스 지수(WIW)와 한국형 웰니스 척도(KWS)를 사용하였다. 실험결과, 사전, 사후, 추후의 시점과 집단 간의 상호작용 효과는 통계적으로 유의미하지 않았으나, 효과의 경향성을 확인하였다. 주간 피드백 유무에 따른 실험처치 효과 차이는 확인되지 않았다. 시간에 따른 웰니스 증진 효과가 통계적으로 유의미했으며, 실험처치가 웰니스에 미치는 효과가 선형적임을 확인하였다. 참여의견 조사 결과, 참여자의 84.2%가 이번 활동이 도움이 된다고 하였으며, 78.9%가 상용화된 앱이 있다면 1주 또는 2주에 한번 사용하겠다고 응답하였다. 본 연구는 누구나 스스로 자신의 웰니스 증진에 활용할 수 있는 방법론을 제시하였으며, 그 효과를 일정 부분 확인하였다는 점에서 의의가 있다.

The survey tool was modified and supplemented according to this study based on the questionnaire that had been verified for reliability and validity in previous studies, and all questionnaire items were composed of a 5-point scale. The statistical analysis used for data analysis was frequency analysis, exploratory factor analysis, reliability analysis, and multiple regression analysis using SPSS Windows 21.0 Version. First, it was found that the wellness perception of the elderly partially affects the perceived sense of freedom. Second, it was found that the wellness perception of the elderly partially affects psychological happiness. Third, the elderly's perceived sense of freedom was found to affect their subjective well-being.

Background: Researchers have previously commenced examining the degree of concordance between parent proxy and child self-reports on health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of many disease and impairment populations. Objects: To explore the differences between parent proxy and child self-reports on the HRQOL using Korean version of KIDSCREEN-10 questionnaires for applying to elementary school children and their parents who participated for a school-based wellness program. Methods: The focus groups were recruited for a school-based wellness program by implementing the following wellness services: 1) referring to a screening session for detecting potential posture-related musculoskeletal problems and 2) recommending home exercise programs. Before a primary field testing for the program, two focus groups were formed with a group of 9 parents and their 9 elementary school children aged 8-10 years of age. The parent proxy and child self-report versions of KIDSCREEN-10 questionnaires were administered to both groups after completion of the wellness program. Item level Rasch rating scale analysis was applied to compute logit scales of KIDSCREEN-10 questionnaire. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) and scatterplot of item difficulty between two reports were analyzed. Results: For fit statistics of parent proxy report, all items except 4 items (i.e., psychological well-being, mood/emotions, self-perception, parent relation) were found to be acceptable. For fit statistics of child self-report, all items except 3 items (i.e., psychological well-being, autonomy and home life) were acceptable. The relationship between two reports using ICCs were ranging from weak to very strong at p = 0.05 (i.e, ICCs = 0.011 to 0.905). Scatterplot analysis between two reports showed a major disparity on self-perception item at 95% confidence intervals. Conclusion: Both item level analyses and ICC comparisons provided a disparity between parent proxy and child self-reports of the HRQOL on self-perception item after competing a school-based wellness program. Therapist should consider the item as part of the HRQOL assessment.
