Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to examine the influence of a short-term temple stay experience on daily life-stress reduction and continuance. The result of this study is as follows. Average daily stress index of male and female after temple stay was remarkably low more than before. Stress index was relatively highly in the following order: just before temple stay, three months, a month, a week after temple stay. By age stress reduction, index of 60s' male was highest while one of 30s' and 40s' female was rather high.

본 연구는 단기간 템플스테이 체험이 일상스트레스감소에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 그 결과 남 여 모두 템플스테이 체험 전 보다 체험 후 평균 일상 스트레스 척도 점수가 현저히 낮았다. 템플스테이 체험 전, 템플스테이 체험 1주일 후, 1개월 후, 3개월 후의 스트레스 척도 점수는 성별과 연령에 관계없이 거의 모두 템플스테이 직전이 가장 높았다. 이어 템플스테이 체험 3개월 후, 1개월 후, 1주일 후의 순서로 나타났다. 마지막으로 연령별 스트레스 척도 점수는 남성의 경우 60대에서 가장 높게 나타났으며, 여성은 30대와 40대에서 다소 높게 나타났다.
