Evaluating the Comprehensive Model of Ego-integrity for Senior Patients in Convalescent Hospitals : Influence Factors and Outcome Variables

초록

영어

This study was performed to evaluate the applicability of the ego-integrity model for home residing elderly to elderly patients in long-term care hospitals. In order to identify the predictors of ego-integrity in elderly patients, a regression analysis was conducted. Results showed that higher age, lower pain levels, higher levels of fantasy and perspective taking, and lower personal distress level in the empathy dimension, as well as higher spiritual well-being, were related to higher ego-integrity. These results show that multidimensional factors covering all the physical, psychosocial, and spiritual aspects have to be considered to formulate a comprehensive understanding of ego-integrity in seniors.
