PURPOSE To develop and test a structural model of functional health in middle‐aged women based on the theory of unpleasant symptoms. METHODS The direct and indirect effects of menopause status, childhood trauma, post‐traumatic stress, social support, and sleep quality on functional health of 264 Korean women were examined. FINDINGS Menopause status and poor sleep quality had a negative direct effect and social support had a positive direct effect on functional health. Menopause status had a negative indirect effect on functional health through poor sleep quality. CONCLUSIONS Biopsychosocial nursing intervention programs need to be developed to improve functional health in middle‐aged women. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE It is important to mediate quality of sleep to improve functional health in middle‐aged women. . 264 , , , ㆍ . , . . ㆍㆍ . : .
