Objectives: The objective of this study is to identify factors affecting suicidal ideation according to gender of the young-old(65~74y) and old-old(75y≤) adult in Korea.
Methods: This study used data from the Ministry of Health and Welfare’s (MOHW) 2017 National Survey of Older Korean (NSOP 2017). Frequency analysis and -test and -test were performed. Binomial logistic regression analysis was performed to identify factors affecting young-old and old-old suicidal ideation by gender. The data used were analyzed using the SPSS Ver. 25.0 program.
Results: Male young-old’s suicidal ideation was influenced by five or more chronic diseases (OR=4.91), not having spouse (OR=2.04), life dissatisfaction level (OR=1.09). Female young-old’s suicidal ideation was influenced by conflict with children (OR=1.65), life dissatisfaction (OR=1.09). Male old-old’s suicidal ideation was influenced by not having spouse (OR=2.85), conflict with children (OR=2.58), doing economic activity (OR=2.47), experienced fall (OR=1.83), life dissatisfaction level (OR=1.20). Female old-old’s suicidal ideation was influenced by conflict with children (OR=3.00), experienced fall (OR=1.58).
Conclusions: It has been found that there are differences in factors affecting male and female young-old and old-old's suicidal ideation, so differentiated intervention by age cohorts and gender are needed.
