본 연구는 재한 중국 유학생의 문화적응 상황 하에서 건강증진행위와 건강관련 삶의 질의 관계를 파악해 보고자 하였다. 서울 및 수도권 소재 10개 대학의 학부 및 대학원 석/박사 과정에 속해있는 총 395명의 중국인 유학생들이 문화적응도 및 건강증진행위와, 건강관련 삶의 질 SF-12 도구를 이용한 자가보고식 설문조사에 참여해주었다. 그 결과 문화적응도가 낮은 유학생들은 건강증진행위가 신체적 삶의 질 점수에 크게 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 문화적응도가 높은 경우 건강증진행위가 정신적 삶의 질에 큰 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 문화적응도가 건강증진행위와 삶의 질의 관계에서 통제요인으로 작용할 수 있다는 결과이다. 그러므로 재한 중국유학생들의 건강증진행위와 삶의 질을 개선할 수 있는 중재 프로그램을 개발할 경우 문화적응도를 함께 고려하면 프로그램의 효과를 극대화시킬 수 있는 방법을 찾는데 도움이 될 것으로 사료된다.

This study aimed to determine the effect of depression between the health-related quality of life and pain in elderly persons with physical disabilities. A total of 111 patients who were treated at hospital B (Seoul, Daejeon, Daegu, Gwangju, and Busan) participated in the Survey. The SF-36 Health Assessment was used to determine the quality of life of subjects, the Korean version of the Geriatric Depression Scale-Short form to assess the level of depression, and Numeric Rating Scale to determine the level of pain. To determine the moderating effect of depression on the relationship between quality of life and pain, simple regression analysis, and the Sobel test were performed. There was a significant negative correlation between health-related quality of life and pain (r<-.3, p<.05), and a significant positive correlation between depression and pain (r=.251, p<.05). Thus, health-related quality of life had a simple regression relationship with depression and pain. Depression also showed a mediating effect between health-related quality of life and pain. The results of this study suggest that depression mediates between pain and quality of life.

The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of a group self exercise program in improving the quality of life regarding depression and the activities of daily living (ADL) of chronic stroke survivors, as well as the motor functions such as the 3 meter round walk, upper extremity function, and static balance. The subjects were 12 post-stroke ambulatory community center participants. All subjects participated in one 90 minute session per week for 7 weeks and received a home exercise program in every session. They had to record and submit an exercise check list. Quality of life was measured with the Beck depression inventory and the 8-Item Short-Form (SF-8). Motor functions were measured with the manual function test (MF'T), the kinesthetic ability trainer (KAT 3000), and the modified Barthel index. The level of depression decreased somewhat, but there were no significant differences after intervention. However, quality of life related health (SF-8) improved significant1y. There were significant improvements in the time for the 3 meter round walk, the functions of the affected upper extremities, and static balance and ADL (p<.05). The findings of this study suggest that a group self exercise program can improve quality of life related health and motor functions in stroke survivors.
