: This study identified health-related factors that affect the happiness of Korean adults with disabilities based on the disability level. : Data of 7581 adults with disabilities aged 20 or older were collected from the 2023 Survey on the Status of Persons with Disabilities. The collected data were analyzed using frequency and multivariate logistic regression analyses. : Among individuals with moderate disability, males were less happy than females. Those with elementary school or lower education levels were less happy than those with college or higher education levels. Those who experienced stress, sadness and despair, suicidal thoughts, or discrimination were less happy than those who did not. In contrast, married individuals were happier than unmarried individuals. Those who exercised, went out alone, engaged in paid work, or participated in social activities were happier than those who did not. Among individuals with severe disabilities, males were less happy than females. Those with lower levels of education were less happy than those with higher levels of education. Those who experienced stress, sadness and despair, suicidal thoughts, suicide attempts, difficulty in communication, or discrimination were less happy than those who did not. Those who perceived their body as very thin were less happy than those who perceived it as very obese. Those who suffered from chronic disease were less happy than those who did not. In contrast, those aged 20-29 were happier than those aged 80 years or older. Married individuals were happier than unmarried ones. Those who exercised, went out alone, engaged in paid work, or participated in social activities were happier than those who did not. : Factors affecting the happiness of Korean individuals with disabilities differ depending on the disability degree. Therefore, health policies, plans, and support measures must be established based on the disability degree to support daily physical activities, along with health services facilitating physical activity.
本研究基于残疾程度，确定了影响韩国成年残疾人幸福感的健康相关因素。从2023年残疾人状况调查中收集了7581名20岁及以上成年残疾人的数据。对收集到的数据进行了频率分析和多变量逻辑回归分析。在中度残疾者中，男性的幸福感低于女性。小学及以下教育水平的人比大专及以上教育水平的人幸福感低。经历过压力、悲伤和绝望、有自杀念头或遭受歧视的人比没有这些经历的人幸福感低。相比之下，已婚者比未婚者更幸福。进行锻炼、独自外出、从事有偿工作或参加社交活动的人比不这样做的人更幸福。在重度残疾者中，男性的幸福感低于女性。教育水平较低的人比教育水平较高的人幸福感低。经历过压力、悲伤和绝望、有自杀念头、自杀未遂、沟通困难或遭受歧视的人比没有这些经历的人幸福感低。认为自己身体很瘦的人比认为自己非常肥胖的人幸福感低。患有慢性病的人比没有慢性病的人幸福感低。相比之下，20 - 29岁的人比80岁及以上的人更幸福。已婚者比未婚者更幸福。进行锻炼、独自外出、从事有偿工作或参加社交活动的人比不这样做的人更幸福。影响韩国残疾人幸福感的因素因残疾程度而异。因此，必须根据残疾程度制定健康政策、计划和支持措施，以支持日常身体活动，并提供促进身体活动的健康服务。
