Abstract

This study was attempted in order to measure the level of Korean people's social capital and their multicultural acceptance, and to explain the relationship between the sub-factors of social capital(trust, reciprocity, and participation) and the multicultural acceptance. Furthermore, this study aimed to examine the relative influence of the sub-factors of social capital on the multicultural acceptance and to suggest which social capitals should be reinforced. Data on 'social capital' and 'multicultural acceptance' used in this study were obtained from the data of the 8th Korean General Social Survey (KGSS) in 2010. The results of analyses are as follows. First, social capital was lower with increase in age (F=28.18, p<.001), and higher with increase in academic qualification (F=15.49, p<.001), and total household income (F=8.85, p<.001). Second, the multicultural acceptance was higher in men (t=9.98, p<01) and lower with increase in age (F=27.29, p<.001), and higher with increase in academic qualification (F=28.99, p<.001), and total household income (F=11.92, p<.001). Third, among the three social capital factors influencing the multicultural acceptance, 'trust' was found to have a significant positive (+) effect. Based on these results were suggested various strategies for enhancing Korean people's multicultural acceptance.

본 연구는 한국인의 사회자본의 수준과 다문화 수용성의 수준을 파악하고, 사회자본의 하위요소(신뢰, 호혜성, 참여)와 다문화 수용성 요인과의 관계를 규명하고자 시도되었다. 이와 더불어 사회자본의 하위요소들이 다문화 수용성에 미치는 상대적 영향력을 알아보고, 어떤 사회자본을 더 강화해 나가야 하는지 등을 제시하고자 한다. 본 연구에서 활용한 '사회적 자본'과 '다문화 수용성' 자료는 2010년 제8차 "한국종합사회조사"(Korean General Social Survey; 이하 KGSS) 데이터를 활용하였다. 분석결과를 정리하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 연령대(F=28.18, p<.001)가 낮아질수록, 학력(F=15.49, p<.001)이 높아질수록, 가구 총소득(F=8.85, p<.001)이 높아질수록 사회자본도 높아지는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 남성(t=9.98, p<01)일수록, 연령대(F=27.29, p<.001)가 낮아질수록, 학력(F=28.99, p<.001)이 높아질수록, 가구 총소득(F=11.92, p<.001)이 높아질수록 다문화 수용성도 높아지는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 다문화 수용성에 영향을 미치는 3가지 사회적 자본 요인 중 '신뢰'가 유의미한 정(+)적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 분석결과를 토대로 한국인의 다문화 수용성을 높이기 위한 다양한 방안을 제안하였다.
