Objectives : The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between depressive symptom, spiritual well-being and state hope in early adults and middle aged patients with depression.
Methods : A total of 180 outpatient were surveyed with Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Spiritual Well-being Scale (FACIT-Sp) and The State Hope Scale (SHS). Mean scores of BDI, FACIT-Sp and SHS were compared between two groups of different age. Correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analyses were performed to identify the effect of BDI and FACIT on SHS according to age.
Results : Mean scores of SHS and FACIT were higher significantly in middle aged group than early adults group, while BDI was not different between two groups. And early adults and middle aged patient’s state hope showed a significantly negative correlation with spiritual well-being. In regression analysis, the effect of BDI, FACIT on SHS were significant in both groups and the regression model explained 42% of the variance of state hope in early adults group and 26% in middle aged group, respectively.
Conclusion : These findings suggest that in depressive symptom and low state hope relationship, spirituality is important protective factor in both aged adult outpatients with depression.
