다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The purpose of this study was started with the critical mind that a elder women who devoted whole life to their family have poor psychological well-being. We approached to the purpose with question and anxiety to measure the state of elder women's psychological well-being, how to enhance their psychological well-being, what social work service can do for them.
This study's answers are 478 elder women. They are living in Daegu and go to welfare facilities. This study have 4 research questions. First, how level of life stress, self-esteem, social support, psychological well-being in elderly women? and who are the major provide social support to elderly women?. Second, Do the difference demographic information of psychological well-being among elderly women? Third, How do influence of life stress, self-esteem and social support of among elderly women on psychological well-being? Fourth, What is the pathways of effect of self-esteem and social support of elderly women on life stress and psychological well-being?
In conclusion:
First, to identify the importance of self-esteem. Self-esteem was the most strong estimated factor of elder women's hypochondria and also for the life satisfaction so the most effective factor for the elder women's psychological welfare was self-esteem. Consequently, to enhance the elder women's psychological welfare, social support and self-esteem is very crucial. To enhance the self-esteem, elder women's participation in educational, cultural activity is very important so expanding the life-long education will be very essential.
Second, to identify the importance of elder women's valuation support. It is common that in elderly's social support study, material support and emotional support are very important. But in this study, valuation support was the second important support. The reason for this result seems it is because of the increasement of social activity, relationship with others in elder women and their consciousness proportion of importance doing social activity.
Another new found was that rising of friends and neighbors as the offerer in providing supporting. According to this study's elder women, friends and neighbors were secondly main offerer in every social support. Because of the characteristic of elder women like decrease of social activity and mobility, rising of neighbors importance is reasonable. In this study, it shows that sons and daughters were still the most important supporters but the fact that friends and neighbor placed second seems elder women's reliance to their children has been decreased a bit so it shows that it is becoming more encouraging in this society which has lot of problems between parents and children in reliance issue.
Next, in a relationship between life stress and psychological welfare, this study identified the intermediated effect of self-esteem and social support. Intermediated effect shows that it has strong points in identify that stress's negative effect which goes through the self-esteem and social support, the progress causing depression and life satisfaction, in other words, originated matter and it can be alternative factor of self-esteem and social support. In study of social support, absorbing effect has been provided lot of information than intermediate effect. In this study, I had been focused more in intermediate effect and I expect that this study will show the method to enhance the psychological welfare of elder women.
Last, I applied 'Two-Dimensional Contexual Perspective' to organize the psychological welfare and I tried to understand the relation effect according to 'Domain Specific Model'. Applying this kinds of new theory was very careful and incomplete but I hope this can be a footstone in future studies.
