일개 지역사회주민의 생활사건 스트레스 인지수준과 그 관련요인

국문 초록 (Abstract)

산업화와 세계화로 인한 생존경쟁의 증가로 현대인들은 정신건강에 위협을 받고 있다. 생활사건 스트레스(Stress of life events)는 정신건강을 위협하는 요인일 수 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 안산시 지역사회 주민 933명을 대상으로 생활사건 스트레스 인지수준을 파악하고, 이와 관련된 요인을 남녀별로 규명하기 위함이었다. 생활사건 스트레스 인지수준은 국문번역 Global Assessment of Recent Stress (GARS)를 사용했으며, 개인적 특성으로서 인구학적 요인으로서 연령과 성별을, 사회경제적 요인으로 결혼상태, 교육정도, 직업, 종교, 월가구 수입을, 정신적 요인으로서 가족구성원의 정신과문제 유무를, 사회지지 요인으로서 동거가족수를 조사하였다. 총스트레스 인지수준의 독립변인을 규명하기 위해서 다중회귀분석을 수행하였다. 연구결과는 안산시 지역주민의 약 3분의 1정도(32%)가 중간정도 이상의 스트레스를 인지하고 있었다. 그 중 재정적 스트레스 인지수준이 가장 높았다. 남성에서는 이혼/별거/사별과 높은 총스트레스 인지수준은 독립적으로 밀접한 연관성이 있었으며, 여성에서는 월가구수입 그리고 가족구성원 중 정신과문제와 높은 총스트레스 인지수준과 독립적으로 연관성을 보였다. 결론적으로 지역사회 중심 정신건강 사업은 남녀 별 스트레스에 취약한 특성이 상이하고 이에 남녀별 표적집단을 중심으로 차등을 둔 중재개발이 이루어져야 함을 시사하는 바이다.

As society is getting industrialized and globalized, competitive endeavor for survival has been rising and being a threat to mental health toward people living in modern society. Perceived stress of life events may be a contributing factor to mental illness as well as physical illness. The purpose of our study is to identify the level of perceived stress of recent life events and to determine its gender-specific correlates among 933 residents in Ansan city. The Korean version of the Global Assessment of Recent Stress (GARS) was administrated to assess the perceived of recent stress. As physical, psychological and socioeconomical variables, age, sex, marital status, education, job, religion, household income per month, the presence of family members having mental illness, and the number of cohabitants were collected as candidate correlates of total GARS scores. About one third of the residents (32%) showed the moderate or severe levels of total GARS scores and the highest levels of perceived stress in financial pressure among eight domains of GARS. Divorced/separated/widowed status was a significant and independent correlate for men, whereas both monthly household income and the presence of family members having mental illness were significant and independent correlates for women. Therefore, when planning a community-based program, identifying target groups vulnerable to stress and creating gender-specific strategies for promoting mental and physical health are needed.
