Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of an integrated recreation program on mood states, flexibility, and stress of elderly women. The integrated recreation program was applied to dance as a physical activity and songs and art as emotional activities in consideration of the characteristics of the elderly activities. The subjects were 50 elderly women aged 65 years or older who reside in K-do. The examination period was December 2 in 2014 to February 17 in 2015, during which time mood states, flexibilities, density of the salivary cortisol, variations in heartbeats, and stress were measured. The integrated recreation program had positive effects on mood, flexibility and stress reduction in elderly women. Based on these results, the integrated recreation program is considered to increase mood states and flexibility of elderly women while lowering stress. Therefore, the integrated recreation program developed in this study not only helps the physical and mental health of elderly women, but can also be widely utilized as a health promotion program for the elderly.

본 연구는 통합 레크리에이션 프로그램이 여성 노인의 기분상태와 유연성, 스트레스 감소에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 통합 레크리에이션 프로그램은 노인의 활동특성을 고려하여 신체적 활동영역으로 무용을, 정서적 활동영역으로 노래와 미술을 적용하였고, K도에 거주하는 만 65세 이상의 여성 노인 50명을 연구 대상으로 하였다. 조사기간은 2014년 12월 2일에서 2015년 2월 17일까지였으며, 기분상태, 유연성, 타액코티솔 농도, 심박동 변이도 및 스트레스를 측정하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 통합 레크리에이션 프로그램으로 인해 여성 노인들의 긍정적인 기분상태가 높아지고 있었고, 둘째, 통합 레크리에이션 프로그램은 유연성 향상에 효과가 있었으며, 셋째, 통합 레크리에이션 프로그램은 여성 노인들의 스트레스를 낮추는데 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 종합하면, 통합 레크리에이션 프로그램은 여성 노인의 기분상태와 유연성을 향상시키는 반면 스트레스를 낮추는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구에서 개발한 통합 레크리에이션 프로그램은 여성 노인의 신체 및 정신건강에 도움이 될 뿐 아니라 노인의 건강증진 프로그램으로 널리 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
