노인의 상실감, 마음챙김 및 자살생각의 관계: 인지적 유연성의 매개된 조절효과

초록

This study examined the mediated moderating effect of cognitive flexibility between loss, mindfulness and suicidal ideation in the elderly. An online survey was conducted with 300 adults aged 65 nationwide. First, correlation analysis revealed significant relationships among all main variables. Second, mindfulness partially mediated the effect of loss on suicidal ideation. Third, cognitive flexibility moderated the influence of loss on mindfulness. Fourth, the analysis of the mediated moderation effect confirmed its statistical significance. This study identified the process of mindfulness in the context of suicidal ideation among the elderly experiencing loss. Furthermore, the findings revealed that cognitive flexibility moderates both the direct and indirect pathways through which loss influences suicidal ideation. These results suggest that enhancing cognitive flexibility may serve as a critical intervention strategy to promote mindfulness and reduce suicidal ideation in the elderly who have experienced loss.
