Background: People face many obstacles to overcoming crisis in life and proactively manage life crises. This study aimed to evaluate the association of self-management strategy with subjective health and well-being for the general South Korean population.
Methods: We recruited 1,200 respondents using an equal-probability sampling method from March to May 2018. A questionnaire including life version of the Smart Management Strategy for Health Assessment Tool (SAT-Life), the five Health Status Questionnaire, Short Form-12, McGill Quality of Life Questionnaire (MQOL), Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), and Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS) was administered to participants.
Results: In multiple stepwise logistic regression model adjusted with basic demographic variables (age, sex, region, education and monthly income level), core strategy was independently associated with physical, mental, social, spiritual, and general health status (adjusted odds ratios [aORs], 1.97-2.92). Preparation strategy was independently associated with physical, mental, spiritual, and general health status (aORs, 2.36-3.31). Implementation strategy was independently associated with physical, social, spiritual, and general health status (aORs, 2.22-2.42). Core strategy and implementation strategy were independently associated with higher Physical Component Score (aORs, 2.21-2.29) and higher Mental Component Score (aORs, 1.68-1.76). Core strategy and preparation strategy were independently associated with lower PHQ-9 (aORs, 2.63-3.74). Pearson's correlation coefficients between scores on SAT-Life and the other factors (MQOL social support, MQOL spiritual well-being, and SWLS) explain having significant correlations ranging from 0.41-0.43.
Conclusion: Self-management strategies of health might be encouraged to manage subjective health and well-being outcomes.
