Abstract

Objective : The purposes of this study are to examine the correlations among work ability and sleep quality in bus driver and to find the factors affecting work ability. Methods : The participants were 120 inpatients with bus driver. The Work Ability Index(WAI) was used for measuring work ability and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was utilized to measure sleep quality. The relationships among the variables were examined with Pearson correlation coefficients. And the stepwise multiple regression analysis were performed to identify the predictive variables that explain changes of work ability. Results : As a result of analyzing correlation of variables affecting work ability, there was negative correlation in contact sleep quality(p<.001) and working hours(p<.001). Finally, Work ability was identified as a factor that explains 48.2% of change in sleep quality(p<.001) and working hours(p<.01). Conclusion : It was found that intimacy of bus driver was a major variable to affect work ability. The sleep quality and working hours should be considered as a way to improve the bus driver work ability.

목적 : 본 연구는 일부지역 버스운전기사의 일반적 특성과 수면의 질 그리고 작업 능력 간의 상관성을 파악하고, 작업능력에 미치는 영향을 확인하고자 하였다. 연구방법 : 버스운전기사 120명을 대상으로 작업 능력의 측정을 위해 작업 능력 지수(Work Ability Index : WAI)를 사용하였고, 수면의 질은 수면의 질 평가(Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index : PSQI)를 통해 평가하였다. 작업능력과 수면의 질과의 상관관계를 확인하기 위하여 피어슨 상관분석(Pearson's correlation coefficient)를 이용하였고, 수면의 질이 작업능력에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위해 단계적 다중 회귀분석(Stepwise regression analysis)을 통해 분석하였다. 결과 : 작업능력에 영향을 미치는 변인들의 상관관계를 분석 한 결과 수면의 질(p<.001)과 근로시간(p<.001) 에서 부적인 상관관계가 나타났다. 최종적으로 수면의 질(p<.001)과 근로시간(p<.01)이 버스운전기사들의 작업능력에 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 미치는 변인으로 분석되었고, 수정된 결정계수 값($R^2$)이 0.482로 48.2%의 설명력을 보였다. 결론 : 버스운전기사들의 수면의 질과 근로시간이 작업능력에 영향을 미치는 주요 변인으로 파악되었다. 그러므로 버스운전기사의 작업능력을 향상시키기 위한 방안으로 수면의 질과 근로시간을 고려하여야 하겠다.
