Abstract
본 연구는 노인의 사회적 지지와 회복탄력성의 관계를 사회적 지지의 유형을 중심으로 알아보고, 고령사회에서 노인들이 힘든 상황을 극복해 나가기 위한 서비스 자료를 제공하기 위한 것이 목적이다. 본 연구의 자료는 2014년에 실시한 춘천노인생활실태조사로, 춘천지역에 거주하는 65세 이상의 노인 2,004명이 분석에 포함되었다. 종속변수로는 회복탄력성(CD-RISC) 지표를 활용하였다. 독립변수로는 노인이 주고받는 사회적 지지를 도구적, 정서적, 경제적 지지로 기능적 유형을 구분하여 활용하였고, 회복탄력성과의 관계를 다중회귀분석방법을 활용하여 분석하였다. 연구결과, 첫째, 노인의 정서적 지지는 회복탄력성과 유의미한 관계가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 노인의 도구적 지지는 회복탄력성과 유의미한 관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다(p<.05). 셋째, 노인의 경제적 지지는 회복탄력성과 유의미한 관계가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 통해 노인의 회복탄력성을 높이기 위한 사회적 지지의 필요성을 논의하였다.The purpose of this study was to examine how social support types are related to resilience among older adults, and to provide intervention strategies to help older adults overcome difficulties in an aging society. The participants of this study were 2,004 older adults aged 65 or above who completed the 2014 Chuncheon Elderly Life Conditions Survey. The dependent variable, resilience, was measured with the Conor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC). The independent variable, social support type, was divided into emotional, instrumental, and economic support. The relationships between social support types and resilience were examined using multiple regression analyses. The main findings of this study are as follows. First, emotional support was not significantly associated with resilience among older adults. Second, instrumental support was positively associated with resilience among older adults (p<.05). Third, economic support was not significantly associated with resilience among older adults. The results suggested the necessity of social support for increasing resilience among older adults.
