Abstract

This study was to examine whether an elderly can health-related quality of life(EQ-5D) by the mediating effect of dental health determinants on the association between health practice behavior and EQ-5D. The analysis was conducted on 1,311 of above the age of 65 in elderly by using raw data from the 2015 National Health and Nutrition Survey. The data were analyzed using SPSS for windows version 24.0 and SPSS PROCESS-macro. The health practice behavior and EQ-5D by living arrangement were the highest in the one-generation family(4.62, 0.90) and the lowest the elderly living alone(4.40, 0.86). Also, analysis using the PROCESS macro indicated that the FS-T index has a mediating effect between health practice behavior and EQ-5D(${\beta}=.0011$, BCCI [.003~.0024]). These findings suggest that FS-T index is closely related to EQ-5D and this will be used as basic data for development of health promotion programs for elderly.

본 연구는 노인의 건강실천행위가 치아건강도를 매개하여 건강관련 삶의 질(EQ-5D)을 예측할 수 있는지를 알아보기 위해 시행하였다. 연구대상은 2015년도 국민건강영양조사를 이용하여 만 65세 이상 총 1,311명의 노인으로 하였으며, SPSS 24.0 프로그램과 SPSS PROCESS macro를 이용하여 자료를 분석하였다. 그 결과, 노인의 동거유형에 따른 건강실천행위와 EQ-5D의 경우 부부를 포함한 1세대 동거(4.62, 0.90)가 가장 높았으며 독거노인(4.40, 0.86)이 가장 낮게 조사되었다. 또한, PROCESS macro를 통한 매개효과 검증결과, FS-T 지수가 건강실천행위와 EQ-5D의 관계에서 매개효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다(${\beta}=.0011$, BCCI [.003~.0024]). 이러한 결과는 FS-T 지수가 노인의 건강관련 삶의 질에 밀접하게 연관되어 있으며, 향후 노인을 대상으로 하는 건강증진프로그램 개발에 필요한 기초자료로 활용할 수 있으리라 생각된다.
