Methods: A quasi-experimental study employing a nonequivalent control group, pre-post design was conducted. The subjects consisted of 30 older women in the experiment group and 30 in the comparison group. The intervention was conducted twice a week for a period of 12 weeks. During this period, the pilates exercise program using self-efficacy sources (health education, phone coaching, mentoring, checking homework, recreation) were provided in the experiment group and pilates exercise program were offered in the comparison group. Chi-square test, independent t-test, ANCOVA were used for data analysis. Results: Following completion of the program, upper muscle strength (F=4.131, p=.047), low muscle strength (F=5.558, p=.022), upper flexibility (F=5.252, p=.026), static balance (F=5.957, p=.018), dynamic body balance & agility(F=18.971, p<.001), endurance(F=10.058, p=.002), muscle mass (F=5.748, p=.020), depression (F=4.493, p=.038), Self-efficacy (F=33.853, p<.001), and Health-related quality of life(F=5.586, p=.022) were significantly better in the experimental group.

Participants of this study were 312 volunteers and data was collected online, the collection period was from May 15, 2018 to May 31, 2018. The tools used in the research were the emotional happiness developed by Watson et al (1988) et al., the aging preparation developed by JH Lee (2009). Analysis was done using t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation, and regression by SPSS 18.0. As a result of the analysis, 84.0% of participants felt physically healthy and 89.8% felt mental health. The spouses of participants were physically 83.4% healthy and mentally 82.7% healthy. The correlation between emotional happiness, health cognition and aging preparation showed that physical health had a correlation with mental health (r = .482, p <0.01) and emotional happiness (r = .369, p <0.01), economic aging preparation (r = .411, p <0.01), social aging preparation (r = .119, p <0.01). Mental health was correlated with emotional happiness (r = .491, p <0.01), economic aging preparation (r = .411, p <0.01) and social aging preparation. Difference between emotional happiness and retirement preparation according to presence or absence of disease, emotional happiness (t = -4.503, p <0.01) and economic aging preparation (t = -4.960, p <0.01) were statistically significant. Emotional happiness affects the preparation of old age, emotional happiness affects to physical aging preparation under statistical significance (F=25.191, p<0.01), economic aging preparation (F=1131.783, p<0.01), and social aging preparation (F=147.672, p<0.01) which were sub components of aging preparation. Emotional happiness showed a 7.5% effect on the preparation of physical aging, 78.4% on economic aging preparation and 32.3% on social aging preparation. Based on the above results, it can be concluded that physical health and mental health are related to emotional happiness, economic aging preparation, and social aging preparation. And also these results can be inferred that the illness causes emotional less feeling of happiness and economic difficulty. Based on the results of this study, emotional well - being influences the retirement preparation significantly at statistical significance. Therefore, if the concept of emotional happiness is introduced to the old-age preparation program, it will be more client centered program.

연구목적 외래치료명령제는 정신질환을 앓고 있는 사람이 특정한 외래치료 프로그램에 참여하도록 법에 의해 명령을 내리는 사회적 강제 제도이다. 본 연구에서는 외래치료명령제 및 정신질환자들의 치료 순응도에 영향을 미치는 요인들에 관해 알아보고자 하였다 방법 정신건강의학과 전문의 60명을 대상으로 2016년 10월에서 11월까지 외래치료명령제 및 치료 순응도에 관한 설문조사를 실시하였다. 설문지 각 문항은 문헌조사를 통하여 초안을 작성하고 3명의 정신건강의학과 전문의 및 1명의 법학전문대학원 교수의 의견 조회 과정을 거쳐서 최종적으로 확정하였다. 설문에 응답한 대상자들의 답변을 기술 통계를 이용하여 분석하였으며, 외래치료명령제의 실효성 점수에 대해서는 중앙값과 최고치, 최저치를 알아보았다. 결과 60명의 정신건강의학과 전문의 중에서 45명(75.0%)이 외래치료명령제를 알고 있었지만, 지난 12개월 중에 이를 이용한 전문의는 2명(4.0%)이었고, 주관적 실효성 점수는 40점/100점으로 그 실효성은 매우 낮게 나타났다. 또한 재입원 환자 중 외래 치료를 지속적으로 받았던 환자의 비율은 37.7%, 외래치료를 임의 중단한 환자 비율은 53.1%로 임의 중단 환자가 차지하는 비율이 더 높았다. 퇴원 환자 중에서는 약 2/3가량이 지속적인 치료를 받고 있었다. 임의로 치료를 중단한 환자의 관리방법으로 '아무런 조치를 취하지 않는다'(n=27)와 '파악하지 않음'(n=15)가 대부분이었지만 '정신건강증진센터 연락한다'는 의견은 2명으로 매우 저조하였다. 또한 임의 중단 환자에 대한 효율적인 조치로서는 '정신건강증진센터에 연계해야한다'는 의견이 가장 많았다(n=30). 결론 현재 시행되는 외래치료명령제는 실효성이 낮고, 외래치료 환자의 치료순응도 또한 매우 저조하였다. 따라서 이에 대한 효과적인 개입을 위해 제도적, 행정적 개선이 필요하며, 향후 정신건강증진센터의 역할이 중요할 것으로 판단된다.
