이교보,김진남,김상만 경희대학교 경영연구원 2022 의료경영학연구 Vol.16 No.4

This study examined five measures for measuring the quality of life of the elderly over 60s and older who are subject to moving into a silver town, of which OPQOL(Older People’s Quality of Life Questionnaire), an objective measure, and CASP(Control, Autonomy, Self-realization, and Pleasure)-19, a subjective measure, were classified. First, we identified how the quality of objective life affects the subjective quality of life. In addition, as a parameter of loneliness, a representative negative emotion of the elderly, we looked at the mediating effect of loneliness in the effect of objective quality of life on loneliness, the impact of loneliness on subjective quality of life, and objective quality of life on subjective quality of life. As a result, it was confirmed that among the objective quality of life factors, psychological well-being, health, leisure and activities, religion/culture, and financial circumstances each affect the subjective quality of life in the direction of affection (+). In addition, it was confirmed that social relationships, home and neighbors, leisure and activities affect loneliness in the direction of wealth (-).

건강생성론에 근거한 근로자의 일관적 감각(SOC), 건강관련 삶의 질 및 생활,건강만족도에 관한 한일 비교연구

이응철 ( Eung Cheol Lee ),이성국 ( Sung Kook Lee ),이원기 ( Won Kee Lee ) 대한보건협회 2015 대한보건연구 Vol.41 No.3

연구목적 : 한국과 일본 근로자들의 SOC, HR-QOL 및 생활·건강만족도의 차이와 상관관계를 평가하고, 구조방정식모형을 이용하여 SOC, 삶의 질 및 생활·건강만족도의 관련성 정도를 비교하는 것이다. 연구방법 : 한국과 일본의 제조업에 종사하는 근로자들을 대상으로 유의 표본추출(purposive sampling)법으로 자기기입식설문지를 통해서 얻은 한국 292명, 일본 327명의 자료를 분석하였다. 연구결과 : SOC 전체와 하부영역인 처리가능성 및 유의미성에서 한국이 일본보다 높았으며, 유의한 차이가 있었다. HR-QOL 전체와 하부영역인 심리적인 영역 및 사회적인 영역에서 한국이 일본보다 높았으며, 유의한 차이가 있었다. 생활·건강만족도는 일본이 한국보다 높았지만, 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다. SOC, HR-QOL 및 생활·건강만족도의 상관관계에서 모두 유의하게 일본이 높았다. 구조모형에서는 생활·건강만족도가 HR-QOL에 미치는 영향은 한일 간 유의한 차이가 없었지만, HR-QOL이 SOC에 미치는 영향과 인과관계성은 일본이 한국보다유의하게 높았다. 결론 : SOC는 한국이 일본보다 유의하게 높았다. 이는 한국 근로자가 일본 근로자 보다 건강행동을 잘 수행하며, 건강상태가 좋으며 정신적 건강이 더 양호하다고 할 수 있을 것이다. HR-QOL도 한국이 일본보다 유의하게 높았다. 이는 경제적으로 선진국인 일본이 한국보다 HR-QOL 낮다는 것은, HR-QOL에 미치는 영향이 경제적 측면보다는 사회문화적인 것이나 주관적인 측면이 더 많은 것으로 추측된다. 구조모형에서 SOC가 HR-QOL에 미치는 영향보다 HR-QOL이 SOC에 미치는 영향이 더 크게 나타나, 근로자의 건강유지능력과 스트레스대처능력을 높이고 정신 건강을 위해서는 한국과 일본 모두 HR-QOL을 향상시키는 산업보건 프로그램과 정책이 필요하다고 사료된다. Objective: This comparative study aims to evaluate the correlation and the differences of manufacturing workers in Korea and Japan, and to compare the causal relations among SOC, health related quality of life (HR-QOL) and Life-health satisfaction by structural equation model. Methods: Present comparative study by purposive sampling analyzed the data collected from 292 manufacturing workers in Korea and 327 in Japan with Korean or Japanese self-reporting questionnaire distributed directly. Results: Korea had significantly higher scores in total, manageability and meaningfulness of SOC, and in total, psychological and social portion of HR-QOL than Japan. Life-health satisfaction of manufacturing workers was higher in Japan than in Korea, but did not have a significant difference between Korea and Japan. Whereas Japan has significantly higher correlation in SOC, HR-QOL and Life-health satisfaction than Korea. From the point of the structural equation model, the impact of Life-health satisfaction on HR-QOL did not have a significant difference between Korea and Japan. Meanwhile, Japan had the significantly higher impact and causality of HR-QOL on SOC than Korea. Conclusion: Korea had significantly higher scores in SOC. This might suggest that manufacturing workers in Korea conducted better health behaviors, had better health condition and was mentally healthier than those in Japan. Korea had also significantly higher scores in HR-QOL. This might suggest that HR-QOL was influenced more by sociocultural or subjective aspect than by economic aspect. In the structural equation model, the impact of HR-QOL on SOC was stronger than that of SOC on HR-QOL in both Korea and Japan. Thus, it can be suggested that various industrial health policy for HR-QOL of workers in both Korea and Japan is needed in order to keep healthy, to improve coping ability and to promote mental health.

허승덕(Seung-Deok Heo) 한국언어청각임상학회 2018 Communication Sciences and Disorders Vol.23 No.3

배경 및 목적: 청력손실은 증폭장치로 보상할 수 있으며, 청력손실을 효과적으로 보상하면 난청자(person with hearing impaired, HI) 의 삶의 질(quality of life, QOL)도 개선할 수 있다. 이를 위해서는 증폭기를 사용하고 있는 난청자(HI)들의 QOL을 분석할 필요가 있다. 이 연구는 난청 청년(HI_youth)의 QOL을 알아보는 데 있다. 방법: 참가자는 SNS 서비스를 통해 무작위로 선정된 20세부터 29세 사이의 성인으로 하였다. 이들은 청력손실이 없는 46명과 보청기나 인공와우를 사용하고 있는 19명의 두 군으로 구분하였다. 설문은 World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale Abbreviated Version (WHOQOL-BREF)을 사용하였다. 응답은 신뢰도를 분석하였고(Cronbach’s α=.923), 두 군 사이 관계는 일원분산 분석하였다. 결과: 두 군 사이에는 신체적 범주에서 유의한 차이가 관찰되었다(p < .05). 하위 항목에서 ‘청력손실이 일을 방해 한다’ (p =.000), ‘보청기가 필요하다’ (p =.000) (이상 신체적 범주), ‘삶이 충분히 의미 있다’ (p =.013) (이상 심리적 범주), ‘안전한 삶’ (p =.012), ‘정보 접근성’ (p =.010), ‘지역 의료서비스 만족도’ (p =.017) (이상 환경 조건) 등이 유의하였 다. 논의 및 결론: 난청 청년들은 증폭장치 사용, 안전한 삶, 정보 및 의료서비스 접근, 삶의 의미 부분에서 다소 만족스럽지 못한 평가를 내렸다. Objectives: It is possible to compensate for hearing loss with an amplification system. When the hearing loss is compensated for effectively, the quality of life (QOL) of a person with a hearing impairment can be improved. In the interest of this improvement, it is necessary to analyze the QOL of hearing impaired (HI) individuals who are using an amplifier. This study aims to examine the QOL of HI-youth. Methods: The participants were adult males and females, aged 20- to 29-year-old who were randomly selected through a social network service (SNS). They were classified into two groups: 19 participants who were using a hearing aid and/or cochlear implant, and 46 participants who had no hearing loss. The questionnaire that was used was the World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale Abbreviated Version (WHOQOL-BREF). Response reliability was analyzed with Cronbach’s α (= .923), response scores were analyzed with descriptive statistics, and a one-way analysis of variance was used to analyze the relationship between two groups. Results: When the two groups were compared, there was a significant difference in the average response scores regarding physical health according to category of the participants (p < .05). Significant differences were also observed in the sub-domains, including ‘hearing loss disturbs mywork’ (p = .000), ‘the hearing aid is needed’ (p = .000) (physical domain), ‘life is sufficiently meaningful’ (p = .013) (psychological domain), ‘life security’ (p = .012), ‘information accessibility’ (p = .010), ‘satisfaction with local health care service’ (p = .017) (environment domain), etc. Conclusion: The responses of HI-youth indicated dissatisfaction in respect to using the amplifier, safety of life, accessibility to information and health care service, and the meaningfulness of life.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to compare quality of life in patients with vitiligo and healthy controls by using the generic (WHO Quality of life scale), dermatology-specific (DLQI) questionnaires. Methods: 104 vitiligo patients and 104 healthy controls were recruited in this study all of whom completed the WHOQOL-BREF and DLQI scale. Total scores and scores of domains of the WHOQOL-BREF and DLQI Scale in the two groups were compared. Results: The scores of total DLQI and categories of symptoms and feelings, daily activities, leisure of vitiligo patients were significantly higher than those of healthy controls (p<0.05). The QOL score and domains of physical, psychological health and social relationships of WHOQOL-BREF scale in patients with vitiligo were decreased compared to those in healthy controls(p<0.05). Conclusion: In our study, QOL in patients with vitiligo was poorer than that of healthy controls. The severity of depression and anxiety was the most important predictor on QOL. Therefore, In managing the vitiligo patients, it is important for the dermatologist to consider the psychological aspects of QOL to give them optimal satisfaction of life.

주제범위 문헌고찰을 활용한 산림여가활동과 삶의 질 연구동향

강병훈,장윤선,이정희 한국산림휴양복지학회 2022 한국산림휴양학회지 Vol.26 No.4

Quality of life(QoL) is a concept that encompasses life satisfaction, pleasure, happiness, and well-being as perceived by individuals, and is closely related to social problems such as depression, anxiety, and suicide risk. The Korea Forest Service enacted the 「Forest WELFARE PROMOTION ACT」 to improve the QoL based on forests and is implementing various policies. The forest environment and benefits of forest use are analyzed only fragmentarily, and a comprehensive discussion has not been made on the overall impact of forest use (forest leisure activities) for leisure purposes. Therefore, in this study, research trends on forests leisure activities and QoL are examined through scoping review on the scope of the subject, and forest environment, usage characteristics, QoL affecting factors, and QoL concepts are derived. We want to establish the factors in each area that affect. For this purpose, ‘Forest’ and ‘Quality of Life’ related papers were collected from 4 databases (ScienceDirect, Scopus, GreenFile, and PubMed), and the final 132 papers were selected. As a result of analyzing the selected papers, it was found that forest environment mainly had a lot of ‘Public’ areas with good accessibility, and that there were many studies on ‘Exposure’ and activity for the characteristics of use. The factors affecting the Qol due to the forest leisure activities were found to be ‘Health’, ‘Social health’, ‘Natural environment’, ‘Education’, ‘Recreation opportunity’, and ‘Economic’. QoL measurement concepts were areas such as ‘Well-being’, ‘Satisfaction’, ‘QoL’, and ‘Happiness’. As a result, accessibility and publicity of the forest environment are important for forests and QoL, and the characteristics of use reflect nature exposure or outdoor activity, and health, society, environment, education, recreation opportunities, and the economy are affected in the areas of QoL. These results confirm that forest leisure activities contribute to improving the QoL in health, society, environment, education, leisure opportunities, and economic aspects. 삶의 질은 개인이 지각하는 삶에 대한 만족감, 즐거움, 행복, 웰빙을 아우르는 개념으로 우울, 불안, 자살위험과 같은 사회문제와 관련이 깊다. 산림청에서는 산림을 기반으로한 삶의 질 향상 목적의 「산림복지 진흥에 관한 법률」을 제정하고, 다양한 정책을 시행 중이다. 그러나 산림환경 및 산림이용에 따른 편익을 단편적으로만 분석하고 있으며, 여가목적의 산림이용(산림여가활동)이 삶의 전반에 미치는 영향력에 대한 종합적인 논의가 이루어지지 않았다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 주제범위 문헌고찰을 통해 산림여가활동과 삶의 질에 대한 연구동향을 살펴보고 산림환경, 이용특성, 삶의 질 영향 영역, 삶의 질 개념을 도출하며, 이를 통해 산림이 삶의 질 향상에 영향하는 각 영역의 요인들을 분석하고자 한다. 이를 위해 4개 데이터베이스(ScienceDirect, Scopus, GreenFile, PubMed)에서 ‘산림’, ‘삶의 질’ 관련 논문을 수집하고, 최종 132개 논문을 선정하였다. 선정된 논문을 분석한 결과, 산림환경은 주로 접근성이 좋은 ‘공공’ 영역이 많았으며, 이용특성은 산림환경 ‘노출’과 ‘활동’에 대한 연구가 많은 것으로 나타났다. 산림여가활동으로 인해 삶의 질에 영향을 미치는 요인은 ‘건강’, ‘사회적 건전성’, ‘자연환경’, ‘교육’, ‘여가기회’, ‘경제’인 것으로 나타났다. 측정한 삶의 질은 ‘웰빙’, ‘만족감’, ‘삶의 질’, ‘행복’과 같은 영역이었다. 종합해보면, 산림여가활동과 삶의 질의 관계에 있어서 산림환경의 접근성과 공공성이 중요하며, 이용특성은 노출 또는 일정의 물리적 행위를 반영하고, 삶의 질 영향 영역에는 건강, 사회적 건전성, 자연환경, 교육, 여가기회, 경제가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 결과는 산림여가활동이 건강, 사회, 환경, 교육, 여가기회, 경제적 측면에서 삶의 질 향상에 기여하고 있음을 나타낸다.
