초록

본 연구는 난청 여부에 따른 노인의 생활행태와 사회환경만족도가 삶의 만족도에 미치는 영향을 실증적으로 분석하기 위해 수행되었다. 이를 위해 2020년도 「노인실태조사」 자료의 3,071명(남성 1,892명, 여성 1,179명)을 연구대상으로 설정하였다. 다중회귀모형으로 연구대상의 인구사회학적 변수를 통제하고, 난청 여부에 따른 노인의 생활행태와 사회환경만족도가 삶의 만족도에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 연구 결과, 난청 노인은 생활행태의 하위 요인인 경제활동, 친목단체 활동, 경로당 이용 변수와, 사회환경만족도의 하위 요인인 가족만족도와 환경만족도 요인이 삶의 만족도에 정(+)의 영향을 미쳤다. 특히 난청 노인은 비난청 노인보다 삶의 만족도에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 요인이 생활행태 영역과 사회환경만족도 영역 모두에서 많은 제한이 있었다. 따라서 난청 노인의 삶의 만족도를 향상시키기 위해서 정부와 지방자치단체가 노인성 난청에 대한 복지정책과 시설에 대한 보완을 병행해야 함을 시사한다.

This study was conducted to empirically analyze the effect of life behavior and socio-environmental satisfaction on life satisfaction of the elderly with or without hearing loss. To this end, 3,071 elderly people of 「the Survey on the Actual Condition of the Elderly」 in 2020 were set as the subjects. After controlling for their demographic variables, the multiple regression model showed that the elderly with hearing loss had different factors of life behavior and socio-environment satisfaction that affected their life satisfaction compared to those without. As a result, the sub-factors of life behavior in the elderly with hearing loss, such as economic activities, social group activities, the use of the center, and the sub-factors of social environment satisfaction, such as family satisfaction and environmental satisfaction, had a positive (+) effect on life satisfaction. Especially, the elderly with hearing loss had more limitations in both the area of living behavior and the area of social environment satisfaction than the elderly without hearing loss. Therefore, in order to improve the life satisfaction of the elderly with hearing loss, it is suggested that the government and local governments should simultaneously supplement welfare policies and facilities for the elderly with hearing loss.
