Among various changes due to aging, especially physical health and pain are a very important issues for the elderly. It is generally known that elderly people suffering from chronic pain become more depressed and start experiencing a lower quality of life. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of K-MBSR, a Korean mindfulness-based Stress Reduction program on pain and depression in the elderly. For this purpose, data were collected from the experimental group participating in the 8th session of the K-MBSR program, and from the control group participating in the 8th general elder school program at a similar time. Data on mindfulness, Korean pain catastrophizing scale, pain intensity, and elderly depression(K-GDS) were collected in the form of self-report questionnaires before, after, and after the programs (4 months after each program). Based on the program attendance and missing values of each group, the data of the final 43 subjects (22 in the experimental groups and 21 control subjects) were used to perform a mixed-ANOVA. Statistically significant difference was observed between groups at the post- in mindfulness, pain intensity, pain catastrophizing, and elderly depression. Especially, the statistically significant difference was seen in pain catastrophizing, and pain intensity. The results imply that K-MBSR program can be used as an effective intervention to reduce the intensity of pain, pain catastrophizing, elderly depression. The discussion and limitations of this study are also discussed.
