Abstract

During the last few decades dramatic expansion of education occurred for women as well as men in Korea. Taking into account such a rapid expansion of education, this study examines trends in the effects of education on first occupational attainment among Korean women. Using the data from "the 4th Survey on Women's Employment," conducted by Korean Women's Development Institute in 2001, this study investigates the trends across three cohorts classified on the basis of the year of labor force entry after schooling: before 1980, 19801989, and 1990 or later. First, log-linear models are applied to the data to detect the temporal change in the overall association between education and first occupational attainment controlling for marginal distribution. The log-linear analysis shows that the strength of association between education and first occupation has declined over time. An additional analysis of OLS regression is conducted to see how the effects of each level of educational attainment on occupational prestige have changed across the three cohorts. The results of OLS regression suggest that the differences in prestige scores between the lowest and each of other educational levels are narrower in recent cohorts.t cohorts.

지난 몇 십 년 간에 걸쳐 한국 사회에서 남성들은 물론 여성들의 교육수준은 급속하게 증가하였다. 본 연구는 이러한 배경을 염두에 두면서 여성들의 교육수준이 첫 직업획득에 어떠한 영향을 끼치며 또 그것은 어떠한 양상으로 변하였는지 살펴본다. 이를 위해 한국여성개발원에서 2001년에 수집한 $\ulcorner$제4차 여성취업실태조사 원자료$\lrcorner$를 이용해 노동시장에 처음으로 진입한 시점을 기준으로 1980년 이전, 1980년대, 그리고 1990년대 코호트를 구분하였다. 우선, 코호트별로 상이한 교육과 직업의 분포를 통제한 후 교육과 직업의 전반적인 연관성을 파악하기 위해 대수선형모형(log-linear model) 분석을 시도하였다. 그 결과 최근 코호트로 올수록 교육과 직업의 전반적인 연관성이 약화되는 것으로 나타난다. 이어 OLS 회귀분석을 통해 각각의 교육수준이 직업위세점수에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았으며, 분석결과는 교육수준간 직업위세점수 차이가 최근 코호트로 올수록 감소하였다는 것을 보여준다. 결론적으로 본 연구는 그간 한국 사회의 급속한 교육팽창의 맥락 하에서 여성의 교육과 직업의 연관성이 점점 약화되어왔다는 것을 보여준다.
