Abstract

This study is an experimental study on the single group pre-post test design for the effects of the food expression activity program on subjective memory, depression, and self-expression of the elderly. 36 elderly people attending Senior Citizen Club from two locations in S City participated. A total of six session programs were applied from January 8 to February 17, 2020. The questionnaire survey conducted subjective momory, depression, and self-expression before and after the program. The contents of the intervention consisted of physical relaxation, cognitive activities, and various food activities. In the result of this study, the food expression activity program were statistically significant differences in subjective memory(t=2.67, p=.011), depression(t=3.88, p<.001), and self-expression(t=2.09, p=.044). Therefore, it is expected that the food expression activity program can be applied as a nursing intervention to reduce depression and improve subjective memory and self-expression in the elders attending senior citizen clubs.

본 연구는 푸드표현활동 프로그램이 노인의 주관적 기억력, 우울, 자기표현에 미치는 효과를 파악하기 위한 단일집단 사전사후 원시실험연구이다. 연구방법은 S시에 위치한 2곳의 경로당 이용 노인 대상자 36명이 참여하였으며, 2020년 1월 8일부터 2월 17일까지 총 6회기 프로그램을 시행하였다. 프로그램 전후에 주관적 기억감퇴, 우울, 자기표현의 변화를 설문지로 조사하였다. 중재 프로그램은 신체적 이완활동, 인지활동 및 다양한 '푸드'를 이용하여 손의 움직임과 자기표현을 할 수 있게 구성하였다. 연구결과, 푸드표현활동 프로그램은 대상자의 주관적 기억력(t=2.67, p=.011), 우울(t=3.88, p<.001), 자기표현(t=2.09, p=.044)을 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 본 연구 결과를 바탕으로 푸드표현활동 프로그램은 경로당 이용 노인의 우울 감소와 기억력 및 자기표현을 향상을 위한 간호중재로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
