본 연구는 노후불안인식의 수준과 노후불안인식에 영향을 주는 요인을 각 연령집단별로 살펴보고, 노후불안을 낮추기 위해 사회적으로 어떠한 대안이 마련되어야 하는지 탐색하기 위한 목적으로 진행되었다. "2017 연령통합 설문 조사" 자료를 사용하였으며, 총 1,017명의 조사대상자를 청년층 307명, 중년층 357명, 노년층 353명의 3개 연령집단으로 구분하여 노후불안인식 영향 요인들을 비교분석하였다. 각 연령집단 간 노후불안인식의 정도에 차이가 있는지 분산분석을 통해 살펴보았으며, 노후불안인식에 대한 각 변수들의 영향력을 다중회귀분석을 통해 분석해 보았다. 분석결과, 각 연령집단별 노후불안인식에는 차이가 없었으나, 그에 영향을 미치는 요인에는 집단 간 차이가 있었다. 노후불안인식에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 분석한 회귀분석 결과는 다음과 같다. 먼저, 노인낙인은 모든 연령집단에서 노후불안인식에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 근로가능연령은 청년층과 중년층에서 노후불안인식에 영향을 미치고 있었다. 사회공정성인식은 중년층과 노년층에서 노후불안인식에 영향을 주는 요인으로 분석되었다. 연령통합인식과 고령친화적 환경 변인은 노년층에서만 노후불안인식에 유의미한 영향을 미치고 있었다. 본 연구는 노후불안에 대해 사회적 관점에서 접근하고자 하였으며, 노년기에 대한 인식과 사회 환경에 대한 인식과의 연관성을 통해 실증적으로 규명하고자 하였다는 점에서 의의가 있다.

This study is conducted to survey and examine the relationships among anxiety about aging, perceived health status and health promoting behaviors in the elderly, and to provide basic data for health promoting interventions that would improve their successful aging. Me1hods: Data in this study was collected from 333 elderly participants living in Susan. Descriptive statistics, t-test or ANOVA with Scheffe's test, Pearson's correlation coefficients and stepwise multiple regression were used for data analysis. Results: The major findings of this study were as follows. 1) The mean score of anxiety about aging was 2.67 $\pm$ 0.30, perceived health status 2.46 $\pm$ 0.37, and health promoting behavior 2.77 $\pm$ 0.21.2) There was a positive correlation between health promoting behavior and perceived health status (r = 267, P= .000). There was a negative correlation between anxiety about aging and health promoting behavior (r = -.163, P=.003). 3) Health-promoting behavior was significantly associated with perceived health and anxiety about aging, which explained 20.9% of variance in health-promoting behavior. Conclusion: In order to promote perceived health status and to decrease anxiety about aging in the elderly, it is necessary to develop supporting interventions to decrease anxiety about aging

The linear regression method was used to model the relationship among a set of perceptions regarding to the importance of physical exercise and the perceived value of physical exercise (as a leisure activity) for aging baby boomers. In terms of a pilot study, we developed two alternative models tested at two different convenience samples. The first sample consisted of 82 aging baby boomers aged 55.65 (sample 1) and the second one consisted of 458 citizens aged 18.45 (sample 2). Through this research approach, we intended to lead to a better understanding of perceived value of physical exercise in the sporting goods marketing context for aging baby boomers. We addressed the core research themes of our study using a convenience survey. Data was collected by means of face to face interviews during the seven week period. The research results showed that the "model 2" better predicts perceived value of physical exercise as a leisure activity for aging baby boomers. We believe that the final findings of our research try can recognize the differences in buying behaviors between aging baby boomers and other target markets and advance marketers of sporting goods strategic tries regarding to consumer strategy management at a store level.

본 연구에서는 성공적 노화이론의 생의학적 이론과 사회심리학적 이론에 대한 각각의 선행요인인 주관적 건강 및 노인차별경험을 측정하여 어느 측면이 보다 성공적 노화에 영향을 주고 있는지 살펴보고자 하였다. 주요 결과를 보면, 첫째, 노인차별경험 중 무시차별경험이 다른 차별경험 보다 높게 나타났다. 둘째, 사회인구적 변수를 가지고 주관적 건강, 노인차별경험, 성공적 노화에 대한 차이를 분석한 결과 여성에 비해 남성이 높은 노인차별경험을 하고 있었다. 연령, 경제수준, 학력에서도 주관적 건강 및 차별경험 일부에서 차이를 나타냈다. 마지막으로, 이 연구의 주요목적인 성공적 노화에 영향을 미치는 요인을 알아보기 위하여 위계적 회귀분석을 실시한 결과, 주관적 건강과 차별경험 중 재산차별이 성공적 노화에 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 연구결과를 통해 우리는 성공적 노화를 위해서 주관적 건강(생의학적 측면의 선행변수)이 노인차별경험(사회심리학적 측면의 선행변수) 보다 중요한 설명력을 갖는다는 사실을 검증했다. 이를 통해 효과적인 건강증진사업 등의 정책 입안 및 시행이 우선적으로 필요하다는 것이 입증되었으며, 노인차별을 위한 방지대책도 사회적인 논의가 필요하다는 것이 입증되었다.

Purpose: This study was conducted to determine the effects of middle-aged women's social support, self-efficacy, and perceived health status on aging anxiety. Methods: Research subjects were 210 middle-aged women between 40 - 60 years living in G-city. Data were collected from July $21^{st}$ 2014 to August $8^{th}$ using a structured questionnaire and analyzed using t-test, One way ANOVA, and multiple regression analysis using the SPSS/WIN 21.0 program. Results: Aging anxiety showed statistically significant differences in religion (t=2.44, p=.015), satisfaction with married life (F=4.39, p=.014), type of leisure activity (F=8.09, p<.001), and number of friends (F=3.23, p=.024). Aging anxiety showed correlation with social support (r=-.21, p=.003), self-efficacy (r=-.46, p<.001), and perceived health status (r=-.33, p<.001). Factors affecting aging anxiety were self-efficacy (${\beta}=-.33$, p<.001), perceived health status (${\beta}=-.23$, p<.001), leisure activity type (${\beta}=-.16$, p=.010), and religious affiliation (${\beta}=-.17$, p=.038). The predictive power of these variables was 25% (F=18.63, p<.001). Conclusion: Nursing intervention strategies for improving self-efficacy, perceived health status, and leisure activity are required to relieve aging anxiety of middle-aged women.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify aging anxiety and influencing factors of middle-aged adults. Methods: Descriptive correlation design was used. Three hundred and three middle-aged adults participated in the study and completed the questionnaires in the period from September 11 to October 15 of 2011. The data was analyzed using independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Scheff$\acute{e}$ test, Pearson correlation coefficients, and hierarchial multiple regression analysis. Results: Aging anxiety of middle-aged adults was higher than a moderate level. Socio-demographic variables such as age, religion, education, economic level, perceived health status and experience of living with older adults influenced significantly on aging anxiety. In contrast, general self-efficacy, aging knowledge and attitude toward older adults were negatively correlated with aging anxiety. Hierarchial multiple regression analysis incorporating these variables showed an explanation rate of aging anxiety at 21%. And religion, perceived health status, attitude toward older adults, and general self-efficacy were statistically significant among variables that influence on aging anxiety. Conclusion: The findings of this study suggest that senior preparation programs that can enhance self-efficacy, induce positive attitude on older adults and promote health should be implemented to reduce aging anxiety of middle-aged adults.

This study examined the personal and relational factors influencing the formation of body image among older persons. Aging-rel￡lted physical changes, health, marital relationship, cognitive age, and moods were personal and relationship factors explained for influence on the body image of older persons. Data were collected via a mail survey of older married couples residing in three US. metropolitan areas of Florida. A total of 94 married couples who were 60 years older participated in this study. Results indicated that aging-related physical changes, effect of physical changes on the self, self-assessed health, and evaluation of spouse's attractiveness, and perceived attractiveness (one's perception of the other spouse's appraisals of his or her attractiveness) were found to be significantly related to the body image of older men and women. For men, self-assessed health, evaluation of spouse's attractiveness, and perceived attractiveness were significantly related to body image while physical changes, effect of physical changes, and perceived attractiveness were found significant for women. The feelings of older persons about and satisfaction with their bodies and appearance were estimated by aging-related and relationship-related variables.
