Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a convergence program on depression, Quality of Sleep, and Quality of Life among rural elders. Participants were 48 elders, over the age of 65 (experimental group=29, control group=19) from 4 different senior citizen centers in O province. The experimental group participated in a total of six-session program, 60 minutes once a week. Data were collected from July to August in 2019. Collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, χ2-test and t-test using SPSS 26.0 program. After the program completion, the experimental group showed statistically significant results in depression (t=-2.40, p=.020), Quality of Sleep (t=2.19, p=.033) and no differences in Quality of Life compared to control group. Therefore, the findings suggest that the convergence program is effective for improving depression, Quality of sleep elders in rural areas. Further expanded studies are necessary to supplement the limitations of this study.

본 연구는 노인의 신체건강 및 정신건강을 위한 경로당 융복합프로그램이 농촌 노인의 우울, 수면의 질, 삶의 질에 미치는 효과를 파악하기 위함이다. 연구 대상자는 O군 소재 4개 경로당을 이용하는 65세 이상 노인 48명(실험군 29명, 대조군 19명)이며, 자료수집 기간은 2019년 7월부터 8월까지였다. 실험군은 주 1회 60분씩 총 6회기의 경로당 융복합프로그램에 참여하였고, 대조군은 사전조사와 사후조사 후 각각 1회 30분씩 총 2회의 정신건강교육을 제공하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS 26.0을 사용하여 서술통계, χ2-test, t-test로 분석하였다. 연구결과, 실험군은 경로당 융복합 프로그램 참여 후 대조군에 비해 우울(t=-2.40, p=.020)과 수면의 질(t=2.19, p=.033)에서 유의하게 향상되었고, 삶의 질(.t=0.47, p=.635)은 유의한 차이가 없었다. 이를 통해 경로당 융복합프로그램이 농촌 노인의 중재 프로그램으로 긍정적임을 확인하였다. 따라서 농촌 노인의 수면의 질 향상과 우울 감소를 위해 본 프로그램은 유용하게 활용될 것으로 사료된다.
