노인의 종교성향과 생활만족도와의 관계에 관한 연구 = A Study on the Relationship Between Religious Orientations and Life Satisfaction of the Aged

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study aims to explore the religious orientations which influence life satisfaction of the aged. The data were collected from August 1 to August 30 in 2005 from 403 subjects aged 60 and over who resided in Daegu City in Korea. The questionnaire consisted of the Religious Orientation Scale (ROS) and the Life Satisfaction Scale (LSS).
The major findings of this study support the importance of religious orientations and life satisfaction of the aged. The findings are summarized as follows:
First, the intrinsic religious orientation is dominant in the responses of the Aged. The ratio of the respondents is 79.8%(intrinsic religious orientation) versus 17.2%(extrinsic religious orientation).
Second, the life satisfaction of the intrinsic religious orientation respondents(SM=17.876) is slightly higher than that of the extrinsic religious orientation respondents(SM=16.429) in the Aged, but the difference is not statistically significant(t=-0.713, p=0.477).
Third, the life satisfaction of the lower intrinsic religious orientation respondents(SM=18.814) is slightly higher than that of the upper intrinsic religious orientation respondents(SM=17.512) in the Aged, but the difference is not statistically significant(t=-1.143, p=0.256).
More interpretive and integrative research on religious orientations and life satisfaction in the Aged may be enhanced by taking into account the more accurate development of measurement tools, social welfare programs, and religious wellbeing activities.
