Abstract
The purpose of this study is to find out the moderating effect of leisure activities in the effect of death anxiety of the elderly on the quality of life. To verify this, the hierarchical regression analysis method using the hierarchical analysis of the SPSS 20 statistical package program was used as the analysis data answered by 345 elderly people. In addition, in order to confirm the significance of the effect of the interaction, it was confirmed by the slope and intersection through the chart function of the generalized linear model. The study results showed that, first, the correlation between leisure life and quality of life was a statistically significant positive correlation. Death anxiety and leisure life, quality of life, and death anxiety all showed statistically significant negative correlation. Second, in the relationship between death anxiety and quality of life of the elderly, the interaction variable between death anxiety and leisure life was statistically significant, confirming the moderating effect of the interaction variable. Third, in the relationship between the elderly's fear and quality of life, the interaction variable between fear and leisure life was statistically significant, confirming the moderating effect of the interaction variable. This confirms that leisure activities play a controlling role in the relationship between death anxiety and quality of life of the elderly. Therefore, in this study, suggestions were made to improve the quality of life and buffer death anxiety through leisure activities of the elderly.
