Abstract

Objective : This study aimed to determine the impact of an instrumental daily living activity program for adults with developmental disabilities on their daily living activities and quality of life (QOL). Methods : This study used a single-group pre-test-post-test experimental design. Participants comprised 17 adults with developmental disabilities from the Welfare Center for the Disabled. This program consisted of 10 sessions, including pre- and post-assessments, pertaining to training and education on grocery shopping, meal preparation and cleaning, home management, safety, and emergency management. The evaluation tools used in this study were the Quality of Life Questionnaire, Korean version of the Life Space Assessment (K-LSA), and Korean version of the Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (K-IADL). Results : There was a statistically significant difference in the QOL and K-IADL scores before and after the instrumental activities of daily living occupational therapy program, and there was no statistically significant difference in the K-LSA scores. Conclusion : This study confirmed that implementing an IADL program for adults with developmental disabilities had a positive impact on performance and QOL. For adults with developmental disabilities to participate in daily life and society, interventions for work participation, including training in activities of daily living, must be expanded.

목적 : 본 연구는 성인 발달장애인을 대상으로 수단적 일상생활활동 프로그램을 제공하였을 때 일상생활활동 및 삶의 질에 미치는 영향을 확인하고자 하였다. 연구방법 : 본 연구는 단일집단 사전-사후 실험설계로, E 장애인복지관의 성인 발달장애인 17명을 대상으로 시행하였다. 프로그램은 사전-사후 평가를 포함하여 총 10회기로 이루어졌으며, 장보기, 식사준비 및 정리, 가정관리, 안전 및 응급관리와 관련된 훈련 및 교육을 제공하였다. 평가도구는 삶의 질 설문지(Quality of Life: QOL), 한국어판 생활공간 평가(Korean version of the Life Space Assessment: K-LSA), 한국어판 수단적 일상생활활동(Korean version of the Instrumental Activities of Daily Living: K-IADL)을 사용하였다. 결과 : 수단적 일상생활활동 작업치료 프로그램 전과 후의 QOL과 K-IADL 점수에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 나타났으며, K-LSA 점수는 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다. 결론 : 본 연구는 성인 발달장애인 대상으로 수단적 일상생활활동 프로그램을 시행함으로써 수단적 일상생활활동 수행도와 삶의 질에 긍정적인 영향을 주는 것을 확인하였다. 성인 발달장애인의 일상생활 및 사회참여를 영위하기 위해 일상생활활동 훈련을 포함한 작업참여의 중재가 확대되어야 한다.
