Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the depression and stress symptoms in middle-aged women living in Korea.
Methods: The data were collected by self-reported Questionnaires from 404 middle-aged women of 40~60 years old in Geoje city. Data were analyzed by using the SPSS WIN 12.0 program with t-test, ANOVA, pearson correlation, and multiple regression.
Results: The results showed that the mean score of depression was 33.12±8.26 out of its possible score of 21~84 (range 21 to 76). The mean score of psychological stress was 11.01±7.70 and physical stress was 11.28±7.24 out of its possible score of 0~45. There were significant differences in the score of psychological stress symptom by age, spouse, education level, income, satisfaction in couple relationship, alcohol, and exercise (p＜0.05). There were significant differences in the score of physical stress symptom by education level, job, income, satisfaction in couple relationship, disease history, menopause, and alcohol (p＜0.05). The depression was positively correlated with psychological stress symptom (r=0.599. p＜0.001) and physical stress symptom (r=0.472, p＜0.001). The multiple regression analysis showed that depression significantly predicted the psychological and physical symptom.
