Abstract

Objective : The cognitive rehabilitation were necessary for the elderly has generally decreased memory in order to recovery and maintain. This study showed that effect of memorial strategy program on memory in the elderly. Methods : 20 elderly who has used seniors welfare center in Busan was divided into an experimental group and control group. The control group used program of seniors welfare center, the experimental group participated memorial strategy program twice a week, total of 8 times. We used contextural memory test(CMT) to compared before and after. Results : Immediate recall and delayed recall were no statistically significant difference(p>.05) in both experimental group and control group when compared before and after. But there was statistically significant difference(p<.05) in a experimental group after memorial strategy program. Conclusion : This study shown that memorial strategy program help memory improve in the elderly. Many programs for memory improve in the elderly expect that prevent dementia or mild cognitive impairment.

목적 : 본 연구는 일반적으로 노인에게 저하되어 있는 기억력을 회복하거나 유지하기 위한 인지재활의 필요성을 인식하고 기억전략 프로그램이 정상 노인의 기억력에 미치는 효과를 알아보고자 하였다. 연구방법 : 부산광역시에 위치한 노인복지관을 이용하는 60세 이상의 노인 20명 중 무작위로 실험군과 대조군을 나누어 대조군은 기존 노인복지관 프로그램을 이용하였고, 실험군은 기억전략 프로그램을 주 2회, 4주간, 총 8회기 동안 실시하였다. 평가 전 후의 비교는 상황기억검사(Contextural Memory Test; CMT)를 시행하였다. 결과 : 두 집단의 프로그램 전과 후를 비교한 결과 두 집단 모두 순간기억과 지연기억에서 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다(p>.05). 그러나 프로그램 후 실험군의 순간기억과 지연기억에서 모두 유의한 차이가 나타났다(p<.05). 결론 : 연구결과 기억전략 프로그램은 정상 노인에게 기억력을 증진시킬 수 있다는 것을 보여주었다. 앞으로 정상 노인을 위한 기억 증진 목적의 프로그램이 많이 개발되고 발전된다면 이후 발생하게 될 치매 혹은 경도인지장애의 발병을 예방해 줄 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
