Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of life stress, depression, and smart-phone addiction on quality of life as well as to verify the variables related to quality of life and the factors contributing to quality of life among undergraduate students. The data were collected from 194 subjects at K university in G city using a self-administered questionnaire. T-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and multiple regression were used to analyze the data. As a result, mean scores of life stress, depression, smart-phone addiction, and quality of life were $62{\pm}.33$, $24{\pm}.3$, $2.59{\pm}.63$, and $3.48{\pm}.54$, respectively. There was a negative correlation between life stress, depression, smart-phone addiction, and quality of life. The factors influencing quality of life were life stress, depression, and smart-phone addiction. Based on these findings, it is necessary to improve quality of life and multidisciplinary interventions in order to reduce life stress, depression, and smart-phone addiction in undergraduate students. These findings contribute to the development of a program to improve quality of life among undergraduate students.

본 연구는 생활스트레스, 우울, 스마트폰 중독이 대학생의 삶의 질에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 연구대상자는 G시에 소재한 일개 대학교 재학생 194명이며, 수집된 자료는 기술통계와 t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient, Multiple Regression을 실시하여 분석하였다. 본 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 연구대상자의 생활스트레스는 평균 $.62{\pm}.33$점, 우울 $.24{\pm}31$점, 스마트폰 중독 $2.59{\pm}.63$점, 삶의 질 $3.48{\pm}.54$점으로 나타났다. 둘째, 대학생의 생활스트레스는 학년에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었고, 우울은 학년, 대인관계, 음주에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었다. 또한 대상자들의 스마트폰 중독은 성별, 스마트폰 이용시간, 외모 만족도, 운동, 음주에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었으며, 삶의 질은 성별, 스마트폰 이용시간, 외모 만족도, 대인관계, 운동 등과 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었다. 셋째, 연구대상자의 삶의 질과 생활스트레스, 우울, 스마트폰 중독 간에 통계적으로 유의한 부적 상관관계가 나타났다. 넷째, 연구대상자의 삶의 질에 영향을 미치는 요인은 생활스트레스, 우울, 스마트폰 중독으로 나타났다. 본 연구결과를 토대로 대학생들의 삶의 질 향상 프로그램 개발을 위한 기초자료서 활용되기를 기대한다.
