Abstract
The purpose of this study is to provide basic data for developing effective intervention methods to improve the quality of life by identifying the factors that affect the quality of life of the baby boomers. A descriptive survey research was conducted with the research subjects, 145 baby boomer women who lived in Island J from June 1 to June 30, 2018. The analysis of quality of life had positive correlations with health condition, family relationship satisfaction, retirement preparedness, age, aging anxiety, and showed negative correlations with family relationship satisfaction, and aging anxiety. Therefore, this research is expected to provide useful materials to develop efficient mediation programs in various areas for positive preparation for the golden age and improved family relationship.
