초록

본 연구는 중년여성들이 현재까지 자신들의 삶을 어떻게 살아왔고, 현재시점에서 그들의 삶을 어떻게 바라보고 있는지, 그 경험의 의미와 구조는 무엇인지를 알아보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 50세에서 59세 사이의 중년여성 7명을 대상으로 총 3회에 걸친 인터뷰를 실시하였다. 인터뷰 자료는 현상학적 연구방법인 Giorgi 방법을 이용하여 분석과 해석의 과정을 거쳐서 진행하였으며, 그 결과 의미단위 358개를 도출하고, 다시 하위구성요소 26개로 묶은 후 최종 구성요소로 7개의 범주로 나누었다. 분석 결과, 중년여성들의 삶에 대한 조명은 "어려운 가정 형편", "원가족(family-of origin)의 의미", "역동적인 사회 경험", "결혼", "애달픔", "점점 느껴지는 노화"와 "삶의 초점"으로 구성되었다. 이상과 같은 의미를 바탕으로 중년 여성들의 삶에 대한 조명의 구조는 결론적으로, 어려운 가정형편을 더욱 절실하게 느낀 참여자들이 전문직종에 종사하게 되었으며, 역동적인 사회경험, 결혼, 자식에 대한 애달픔을 경험하면서 노화를 영성을 통하여 긍정적으로 바라보고 있었다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 중년여성들에게 통합적이고 바람직한 노후를 맞이하게 하기 위한 올바른 영성 프로그램의 제공을 제언한다.

The purpose of this study was to clarify what's the middle-aged experience until now and what's the middle-aged women shed light on their life. The phenomenology study design was used and Giorgi method was used for this analysis. We selected 7 middle-aged women for this study such as 2 professor, 1 dentist, 1 own-business woman, 1 house house wife, 1 Nurse, and 1 farming woman. The result of this study were as followers; there were 7 structure factors such as 'poor family economic status', 'meaning of family-of-origin', 'dynamic social experience', 'marriage', 'heartrending', 'getting feeling of aging', and 'focus of life'. According to the results of this study, the participants who were more positive feeling of their poor family status, they were more becoming professional job in the adult age. And they shed light on their life with spirituality through the dynamic social experience, marriage, and heartrending.
