Abstract

The aim of this study was to examine the structural relationship between leisure function, self-efficacy and quality of life among elderly participating in leisure sports. To achieve the purpose of this study, a total 222 surveys gathered from indoor, outdoor sports facilities in Seoul, Jeonbuk province were utilized for analysis. For analysis of the data, frequency analysis, reliability analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, correlation analysis and structural equating modeling were performed using SPSS 18.0 and AMOS 18.0. Main findings were as follows : First, Leisure function had a positive effect on self-efficacy. Second, Self-efficacy had a positive effect on quality of life. Third, Leisure function had a positive effect on quality of life. Fourth, Self-efficacy mediated the relationship between leisure function and quality of life. Our findings revealed a meaningful way to lead healthy life in the elderly.

본 연구는 서울과 전북에 실내외 여가스포츠 활동에 참여하고 있는 노인 222명을 대상으로 여가기능과 자기효능감 및 삶의 질의 관계를 규명하기 위해 연구를 진행하였다. 본 연구의 자료는 SPSS 18.0 및 AMOS 18.0을 활용하여 빈도분석과 신뢰도 분석, 확인적 요인분석, 상관관계분석 및 구조방정식 모형 분석을 실시하였다. 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 여가기능은 자기효능감에 정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 자기효능감은 삶의 질에 정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 여가기능은 삶의 질에 정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 자기효능감은 여가기능과 삶의 질의 관계에서 매개하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 노년기 건강한 삶을 영위하기 위한 방안을 모색했다는 점에서 의의가 있다.
