Abstract

This study was conducted with the purpose of identifying the effects of behavioral psychosomatic symptoms, cognitive functions, ability to perform daily life, and depression among the elderly with dementia. The sample for this study comprised 40 people in the experimental group and 20 in the contrastive group from the Dementia Supporting Center, located in NoWon-Gu of Seoul city. Data were collected from November 1, 2016 until March 31, 2017. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS 23.0, and descriptive statistics, chi-square test, independent t-test two-way repeated measures ANOVA, and ANCOVA were calculated. An 8-week brain activation intervention program including lectures was administered to elderly people with dementia. The results show improved cognitive function and reduced depressed feelings. Based on the results of this study, brain activation intervention programs can be applied to elderly people with dementia at the community level to help improve their cognitive function and relieve them from depression.

본 연구는 뇌 활성화 중재프로그램을 경증치매노인에게 적용하여 경증치매노인의 인지기능, 행동심리적 증상, 우울 및 일상생활수행능력에 미치는 효과를 파악하는데 목적을 두고 수행 하였다. 본 연구의 연구 대상자는 실험군 20명과 대조군 20명으로 총 40명이었다. 본 연구의 자료 수집은 서울시 노원구에 소재한 치매지원센터에서 2016년 11월 1일부터 2017년 3월 31일까지 자료가 수집 되었다. 수집된 자료의 분석방법은 SPSS 23.0K을 이용하여 기술통계, Chi-square test, independent t-test, Two-way Repeated Measures ANOVA, ANCOVA로 분석 하였다. 본 연구에서 경증치매노인을 대상으로 뇌 활성화 중재프로그램을 8주간의 강의 및 프로그램을 시행한 결과 대상자 경증치매노인의 인지기능이 유의하게 향상되었고, 우울감이 유의하게 감소하였다. 본 연구 결과를 토대로 치매노인에게 적용한 뇌 활성화 중재프로그램으로 인지기능의 향상으로 일상생활에도 도움을 줄 수 있고, 치매노인의 우울을 완화시키는 것으로 나타나 차후에 지역사회 프로그램에 활용되도록 하는 기초자료로 지역사회에서 연계하는 프로그램으로 도움이 될 것으로 사료된다.
