Abstract

This study is a descriptive research study to determine the relationship between middle-aged women's social support, resilience and quality of life, and to identify factors that affect quality of life. The participants were 162 middle-aged women in G City. Data was collected from May 10 to June 10, 2023. Data were analyzed through descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and multiple regression using SPSS 25.0 program. The social support was 3.36±0.38, resilience was 3.39±0.42, and quality of life was 3.18±0.50. Quality of life was positively correlated with social support(r=.502, p<.001), resilience(r=.530, p<.001). Factors that have a significant impact on quality of life include resilience(β=.422, p<.001), social support(β=.412, p<.001) and health status(β=.212, p=.001). The total explanatory power of these variables on quality of life was 39.2%. Therefore, it is necessary to develop effective programs and strategies to improve the quality of life of middle-aged women by improving their resilience, social support, and health status.

본 연구는 중년여성의 사회적지지, 회복탄력성 및 삶의 질의 관계를 확인하고, 삶의 질에 영향을 미치는 요인을 확인하기 위한 조사연구이다. 연구대상자는 G광역시에서 거주하고 있는 40-64세의 중년 여성 162명으로, 자료수집은 자가기입식 설문지를 이용하여 2023년 5월 10일부터 6월 10일까지 실시하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS 25.0 program으로 기술적 통계, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, 다중회귀분석을 시행하였다. 연구대상자의 사회적지지 점수는 3.36±0.38점, 회복탄력성 3.39±0.42점, 삶의 질 3.18±0.50점으로 나타났다. 삶의 질은 사회적지지(r=.502, p<.001), 회복탄력성(r=.530, p<.001)과 각각 통계적으로 유의한 양의 상관관계가 확인되었다. 삶의 질에 영향을 미치는 요인은 회복탄력성(β=.422, p<.001), 사회적지지(β=.412, p<.001), 건강상태(β=.212, p=.001)로 나타났고, 삶의 질에 대한 총 설명력은 39.2%였다. 따라서 중년여성의 회복탄력성, 사회적지지, 건강상태의 향상을 통해 중년여성의 삶의 질을 높일 수 있는 효과적인 프로그램의 개발과 전략이 필요하다.
