Abstract

The main purpose of this study is to examine how individual's ideological factor, the individual perception of the economic situation, and the individual socioeconomic characteristics affect the fertility behavior during the fertility recovery periods-from 2006 to 2007- by each parity. For conducting this study, the 2008 Korean Fertility Survey Data are used. The respondents in this data consist of 1,467 women born their children at 2007 and 1,000 women not having their children at the recovery periods of fertility rates. Findings are as follows. First, the effect of individual's ideological factor, the individual perception of the economic situation, and the individual socioeconomic characteristics on fertility behavior differ by each parity. Second, the government policies increasing the fertility rate are needed to consider not only providing the economic support but also emphasizing the traditional ideology having the positive effects on the fertility behavior in order to increase the fertility rates. Third, the policy decreasing the age at the first marriage is needed.

이 연구의 목적은 개인의 이데올로기, 개인의 경제적 상황에 대한 인식, 그리고 개인의 사회 문화적 특성들이 어떻게 2006년 이후 2008년 까지 출산회복기의 출산에 영향을 미치는지를 출산순위별로 분석하는 것이다. 분석 자료로는 2008년 한국보건사회연구원이 조사한 2007년 전국 출산동향 조사가 사용되었다. 이 자료의 응답자는 2007년도에 출산한 여성 1467명과 2007년도에 출산하지 않은 여성 1,000명으로 구성되어 있다. 분석결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 이데올로기, 경제적 상황, 그리고 사회경제적 특성 요인들이 출산 행위에 미치는 영향은 출산순위에 따라 차이가 났다. 둘째, 출산장려 정책은 육아와 같은 경제적 지원뿐 아니라 부부관계보다 부모와 자녀간의 관계를 중시하는 전통적 가족이데올로기를 강조할 필요성이 있다. 셋째, 혼인연령을 낮추는 정책이 필요하다.
