Abstract

Objective : The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of group occupational therapy including education regarding depression, anxiety, and activity participation in people with dementia. Methods : Nineteen people with dementia were randomly assigned to experimental(n=10) and control group(n=9). The participants in experimental group conducted occupational therapy including education, whereas the control group occupational therapy only. Pre- and post- assessments were applied using Korean form of Geriatric Depression Scale(K-GDS), Hamilton Anxiety Scale(HAM-A), State Trait Anxiety Inventory(STAI-X-1), and Korean Activity Card Sort (K-ACS). Results : When comparing the differences between pre- and post- of the intervention, the depression and anxiety of occupational therapy group including the educational program decreased statistically(p<.05). Conclusion : This study has shown that occupational therapy including education has significant effects on reducing depression and anxiety in people with dementia. In the future, it will be necessary to develop an intervention program to strengthen the psychological and emotional aspects of people with dementia, and various studies in the field of occupational therapy focusing on care giver education should be conducted.

목적 : 본 연구는 교육 프로그램을 포함한 집단작업치료가 치매환자의 우울, 불안감, 활동참여에 미치는 영향에 대하여 알아보고자 하였다. 연구방법 : 치매환자 19명을 모집하였고 실험군 10명, 대조군 9명으로 무작위 배정하였다. 실험군은 집단작업치료와 교육 프로그램을 병행하였고, 대조군은 집단작업치료만을 실시하였다. 중재기간은 8주간 주 2회, 하루 2시간씩 동일하였으나 실험군의 치매환자와 보호자에게는 4가지 주제의 교육 프로그램을 하루 30분, 8회기 동안 추가로 실시하였다. 중재 전 후의 비교를 위하여 한국판 노인 우울척도(Korean form of Geriatric Depression Scale; K-GDS), 해밀톤 불안검사(Hamilton Anxiety Scale; HAM-A), 상태-특성 불안검사(State-Trait Anxiety Inventory; STAI-X-1), 한국형 활동분류카드(Korean-Activity Card Sort; K-ACS)를 사용하였다. 결과 : 중재 전 후의 차이를 비교하였을 시, 교육 프로그램을 포함한 집단작업치료군의 우울과 불안이 통계적으로 유의미하게 감소하였다(p<.05). 결론 : 교육 프로그램을 포함한 집단작업치료는 치매환자의 우울과 불안을 감소시키는데 유의한 효과가 있었다. 향후에는 치매환자의 심리 정서적 측면을 강화할 수 있는 중재 프로그램 개발과 더불어 보호자 교육에 중점을 둔 작업치료 영역에서의 다양한 연구가 진행되어야 할 것이다.
