Purpose: The purpose of the study was to identify the pain patterns and factors affecting low back pain in middle-aged women with backache. Method: A descriptive research design was utilized. The participants were middle-aged women who visited to two back pain clinics in Wonju from October, 2006 through February, 2007. A total of 195 low back pain patients agreed to participate in this study, and data from 177 were analyzed. Data were collected using a questionnaire which included a modified short-form Korean pain rating scale, demographic factors, factors related to low back pain and health behavior. Descriptive statistics and multiple regression analysis was utilized in the analysis. Results: The mean score for low back pain was relatively low(M=21.57, SD=11.44). Among pain patterns, scores for dull pain were the highest of all the dimensions. In the regression analysis, significant factors affecting low back pain were found to be age, level of education, religion, BMI, experience of pregnancy, delivery type and exercise. These variables explained 24.8% of variance in low back pain(F=3.79, p<.001). Conclusion: These results suggest that nurses need for assessment and intervention to take into consideration pain patterns as well as factors affecting middle-age women with backache.

본 연구는 중년기 과민성방광증후군 환자의 증상심각도와 스트레스가 우울에 미치는 영향에 대해 알아보기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 연구대상자는 G광역시에 소재한 비뇨기과 의원 및 병원 외래에서 과민성방광증후군으로 진단받은 40~60세의 중년기 환자 167명을 대상으로 하였다. 자료분석은 SPSS 23.0 프로그램을 이용하였으며, 빈도분석, pearson' correlation, t-test, multiple regression로 분석하였다. 연구 결과 중년기 과민성방광증후군 환자의 우울에 영향을 미치는 요인은 증상심각도, 연령, 배우자 유무 순으로 나타났다. 따라서 대상자의 우울을 감소시키기 위해 적극적 치료 유도와 생활 습관 교정 및 행동치료를 교육하고, 연령대별, 배우자 유무에 따른 맞춤형 간호 중재를 수행할 수 있는 프로그램을 개발이 필요하다.

중년기는 인간발달 과정 중 전환의 시기이며 위기의 시기이다. 중년기 위기의 의미를 이해하기 위해서는 다차원적인 접근이 필요하다. 중년기의 위기를 파악하기 위해 개인의 심리적 측면, 행동·사회적 측면의 이해가 요청된다. Jung은 중년기를 개성화 시기라하며, 파편화된 성격의 여러 개체를 안정화시키고 통합하는 과정이라 하였다. 중년기 삶의 의미에 대한 발견은 타인과 자신의 이해를 통해 진정한 공동체 일원이 되는 것이며 실존의 의미와 연결된다. 중년기 위기는 삶의 의미와 깊은 상관관계를 가지며, 삶의 의미를 통해 중년의 위기감을 낮출 수 있다. 다만, 삶의 의미를 발견하는 과정에서 가족 및 사회적 위기상황에 대한 적응, 스트레스 대처 여부가 중요한 요인이 될 것이다.

본 연구에서는 중년비만여성을 대상으로 비만의 발생요인으로 예상되는 요인을 이용하여 비만의 상태를 연령 척도화하여 비만연령(Obesity Age: OA)이라는 연령 추정식을 산출함과 동시에 비만도(비만연령)를 실제의 역연령과 검토하였고 비만연령의 추정식은 다음과 같다. OAS (Obesity Age Score)=$0.106*X_1+0.035*X_2+0.048*X_3+0.041*X_4+0.003*X_5-0.037*X_6-10.66$ (1) ($X_1$: BMI, $X_2$: 체중, $X_3$: 체지방률, $X_4$: 배둘레, $X_5$: 중성지방, $X_6$: $VO_{2max}$) OA (Obesity Age)=7.3*OAS+49.6*(-1) (2) Z=(CA-49.6)(1-0.03) (3) OAc (Obesity Age corrected)=1.03*CA-7.3*OAS+1.47 (4) 그리고 역연령과 추정된 비만연령(Obesity Age corrected: OAc)의 비교에서는 유의한 차이를 나타내지 않아 타당성이 확인되었으며, 총 6개의 측정항목으로 구성된 비만연령을 통해 비만자 개개인의 비만건강도(상태)를 용이하게 평가할 수 있을 것으로 기대하며, 추후에는 다른 집단에서의 적용가능 여부를 알아보기 위해 교차타당성을 검토해야할 것이라고 사료된다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the aging anxiety, factors of successful aging, and preparation for aging in early and late middle-aged people. Methods: The study subjects were 140 middle-aged people aged from 40 to 59. Data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire from August 16 to September 30, 2013. The collected data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, t-test, ${\chi}^2$-test and Pearson correlation coefficient using IBM SPSS 21.0 program. Results: Between early and late middle age, there were statistically significant differences in the subcategories of aging anxiety: fear of loss (t=2.93, p=.004), fear of old people (t=-2.33, p=.021), physical appearance (t=2.32, p=.022), and psychological concerns (t=2.04, p=.043). A statistically significant difference was found between two groups in one subscale of preparation for aging: physical preparation (t=-2.02, p=.045). In early midlife, significant associations were observed between preparation for aging and both aging anxiety (r=.56, p<.001) and factors of successful aging (r=.54, p<.001). In late midlife, preparation for aging and factors of successful aging showed positive correlation (r=.50, p<.001) Conclusion: Results of this study indicate that programs for successful transition to old age in middle-aged people should consider their aging anxiety level and preparation for aging at their stage of life.

본 연구는 고령화연구패널조사(KLoSA)를 활용하여 중 고령층의 연령대에 따른 고용변화 특성을 종단적으로 분석하고, 고용안정성의 탈빈곤 효과를 추정하였다. 연구 결과 현재의 중 고령층은 조기퇴직 등으로 인해 50대 중반 이후 급격한 고용불안을 경험하며, 이후 재취업이 어려워 향후 노후소득보장 측면에서 위험이 큰 집단으로 나타났다. 특히 시간이 지날수록 중 고령층의 고용불안이 심화되고 있으며, 고령일수록 고용상 지위가 악화되는 것으로 나타났다. 로짓분석을 활용하여 중 고령층이 인지하는 고용안정성이 탈빈곤에 미치는 영향에 대해 분석한 결과, 65세 이상의 고령자보다 조기퇴직이 시작되는 55세 전후에서 경험하는 고용안정성이 가져오는 탈빈곤 효과가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 이는 퇴직 전에 충분한 노후준비를 갖추는 것이 무엇보다 중요함을 의미한다. 이러한 측면에서, 단계적인 정년 연장, 중 고령층에 대한 일자리 대책, 부처간 사업의 통합 및 일관성 확보, 연령 및 특성에 맞춘 맞춤형 고용-복지 연계제도의 도입에 대한 적극적인 정책적 고려가 필요하다.

For the purpose of providing basic data for the development of size specifications for middle-aged women in Busan, one dimensional measurements were made with the subjects. ranging 45 to 59 in age. The following are the conclusions : 1) According to ages, the middle and elder groups of the middle-aged women shared similar body types, having shorter height, more lowered bust. and increased upper-body depth and girth factors, compared with the earlier middle-aged women group. But the thigh girth of the elder middle-aged group (age: 55∼59) was the lowest, maybe owing to the aged lower-body muscles. 2) In the comparison with national averages. armhole girth, elbow girth, wrist girth. back waist length, side neck point-B.P.-waist line, and sleeve length showed great differences. This is problematic in that the national size standards fail to reflect each legion\`s peculiar body type characteristics. 3) Even though body types were classified according to drop value criteria suggested by KS specifications, 23.05% did not belong to the criteria. They were thus classified as A, N, and H body types, following the distribution of the present experiment. 4) In consideration of the economy factor of the production and sales of the clothes industry, the combinations of height and chest garth for the middle-aged Busan women were as follows: 155cm-85cm (Body Type A) 150cm-88cm (Body Type N), and 155cm-94cm (Body Type H).
