Objectives : This study aims to examine the effects of compensation satisfaction on psychopathology and quality of life following flood.
Methods : Garisan-ri of Inje-gun, Gangwon-do was chosen as a cohort regarding evaluating of agricultural safety management status. A baseline survey had been administered just before the flood. A follow-up study was conducted for 24 months. Psychopathology and quality of life were assessed using BDI, IES-R, SF-36 and PWI-SF. Satisfaction with the flood compensation was also evaluated.
Results : There was a total of 55 respondents. There was no significant difference between the low satisfaction group (N=43, 78.2%) and middle & high group (N`12, 21.8%) in the sociodemographic factors. There were no significant differences in changes in BDI, IES-R, and AUDIT score over time between the two groups. While SF-36 in the low satisfaction group was increased at 18months after the disaster and decreased at 24months, SF-36 in the middle and high satisfaction group decreased at 18 months after the disaster and increased at 24 months.
Conclusion : The flood disaster had a long-term effect on the flood victims’ mental health. Satisfaction with compensation affects changes of quality of life following a flood disaster.
