Research on the roles and functions of lifelong learning for middle-aged women should be expanded to help middle-aged women understand and establish their identities and restore confidence in their abilities.
As the participation of middle-aged women in social activities is expanding, there is a growing demand for
quality of life through lifelong learning, but there is a lack of research on lifelong learning among
middle-aged women.
In this study, the perception of life of middle-aged women can be changed according to lifelong
learning variables such as lifelong learning competence, lifelong learning participation motivation, and
lifelong learning satisfaction, and these three lifelong learning. And that it has a causal influence. Based on
the hypothetical causal relationship model, we extracted the relevant variables that affect the quality of life
of middle-aged women and verified the relationship between them. As a result, motivation for participation
in lifelong learning and lifelong learning were directly influenced. Was found to be indirectly influenced by
participation motivation and satisfaction.
This study shows that participation in lifelong learning activities affects positive perceptions of the
quality of life of middle-aged women. However, it is also true that middle-aged women are not effective in
recognizing the quality of life if they do not feel satisfied by participating in lifelong learning activities.
Therefore, it is suggested that active support strategies should be established and implemented to increase
motivation to participate in lifelong learning and increase satisfaction with learning outcomes in running
lifelong education programs for middle-aged women.
