성인의 생애주기별 좌절경험과 위험요인

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to provide basic data for the development of preventive measures and management programs suitable for each generational characteristics by promoting an understanding of adult frustration experiences by life cycle and identifying risk factors. As a secondary analysis study using the Korean Health Panel 2018 data (β-version 1.0), 12,666 subjects who responded to the experience of frustration were selected. The collected data were subjected to frequency analysis, descriptive statistics, and multiple logistic regression analysis. Frustration experiences may appear differently depending on the life cycle through various personal and social changes, so general characteristics, social and psychological factors, and risk factors affecting the frustration experience were identified.
 As a result of the study, as for the experience of frustration among adults by life cycle, 27.2% of young adults, 27,6% of middle-aged adults, and 26.0% of old adults had experiences of frustration. Risk factors affecting the experience of frustration by life cycle were found to be common in young adults, middle-aged adults, and old adults, the presence of a spouse, task stress, activity restrictions, and unmet medical care as risk factors. Compared with other life cycles, drug use and decision-making disorders in young adults were found to be factors that did not affect the experience of frustration. Risk factors affecting the experience of frustration in middle-aged adults were drug use, smoking status, and self-management, and gender and memory impairment were found to be factors that did not affect. Risk factors affecting the experience of frustration in old adults were economic activity, memory impairment, and self-management, and education level and decision-making impairment were not affected.
 Therefore, frustration experience is individual and can be felt from various areas, and it is necessary to find various ways to overcome frustration with a differentiated approach because it can be different for each life cycle, developmental task, generation, and situation. In addition, long-term and individualized programs and health policies for each life cycle should be prepared in consideration of risk factors that commonly affect adults' frustration experience and risk factors for each generation.
