Abstract

This study examined the preparation for elderly life in terms of health for aging and the related factors in the community (part of Daegu). The data of 391 middle-aged women in this study were collected from 4 culture centers. The interviews were conducted from March 1 until March 25 in 2011 using a structured questionnaire. The data was analyzed by descriptive statistics and logistic regression analysis using the IBM SPSS Statistics 20 program. The variables in preparation for elderly life regarding their health were exercise, good nutrition, proper sleep, and health examination. From the data, the preparation for elderly life regarding middle-aged women's health for successful aging was identified. Therefore, health service programs and healthy environment should be varied based on the result of this study.

본 연구의 목적은 중년여성의 건강관련 특성을 비교해 보고, 건강관련 노후준비에 영향을 미치는 요인을 규명하려는 것이다. 연구대상은 대구광역시 4개 지역의 문화센터를 이용하는 40세 이상부터 64세 미만 여성 중 391명을 대상으로, 2011년 3월 1일부터 3월 25일까지 설문조사하였다. 수집된 자료는 IBM SPSS Statistics 20을 이용하여, 기술통계와 로지스틱 회귀분석을 하였다. 연구결과, 노후건강을 대비해서 노력하고 있는 여성은 215명(55%)으로 건강관련 특성에서 전반적으로 분포의 차이가 있었다. 건강관련 노후준비에 미치는 변인들로 현재의 운동 여부(비차비: 4.990), 다양한 식품섭취(비차비: 3.563), 적정수면(비차비: 2.021) 등이었다. 중년여성을 위한 건강관리 교육프로그램과 환경조성이 연구결과처럼 다양하게 제공되어야 함을 시사한다.
