초록

본 연구 결과 서울시 양천구의 한부모가족에서 스트레스, 우울증상, 자살생각, 알코올 사용장애 점수가 2009년 일반주민 대상의 연구에서의 결과보다 높았으며, 이는 전반적 정신건강이 일반인구와 비교할 때 취약함을 시사한다. 이들 중에서도 미혼모가족과 무직인 부모가 모든 정신건강이 유의하게 낮았으며, 연령, 주거형태, 월수입도 유의한 영향을 미쳤다. 이러한 요인들을 감안하여 정신적 어려움에 관한 조기 발견과 조기 개입을 위한 전략을 마련하여 심각한 정신질환으로의 이환을 예방하기 위해 노력해야 할 것이다. 나아가 이들의 경제적 압박감을 줄여주기 위한 복지정책 확대 등을 통해원인을 해결해 나가기 위한 노력이 필수적이라고 하겠다.

Abstract

Objectives The aim of this study was to identify mental health of parents in single parent families according to sociodemographic variables and then to identify analyzed sociodemographic factors affecting their mental health. Methods The study participants included 291 parents in single parent families registered at Yangcheon-gu. They accomplished a self-report questionnaire, which included sociodemographic characteristics and self-rating scales ; Global Assessment of Recent Stress (GARS), The Center for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression (CES-D), Scale for Suicidal Ideation (SSI-Beck),and The Korean Version of the Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test (AUDIT-K). First, we identified mental health of parents in single parent families according to sociodemographic variables by independent T test or ANOVA. Second, ANCOVA was used for determination of sociodemographic variables affecting mental health of parents in single parent families after adjusting other significant sociodemographic variables. Results Among sociodemographic variables, structure of family, age, occupation, type of residence,and monthly income had a significant effect on mental health of parents in single parent families. In families with an unmarried mother and unemployed, scores for GARS, CES-D, SSIBeck,and AUDIT-K were significantly higher, while these scores were significantly lower in subjects whose monthly income was over 3 million won. Conclusion Results of this study demonstrate that parents in single parent families were vulnerable to mental health problems, especially unmarried mothers, families, and unemployed. We should try to provide practical support in order to reduce social burden and provide earlier psychological interventions in order to reduce distress for single parent families.
