Abstract

This study was performed to identify the discrimination experience, and life satisfaction of international marriage women as well as the correlation between the two variables. A total of 108 international marriage women from multicultural family support centers in A city agreed to participate in the survey. The results of study were as follows. The average point of discrimination experience of international marriage women was 2.15 and the life satisfaction was 3.93. Discrimination experience correlated negatively with the life satisfaction (r=-.289, p<.001). Discrimination experience (${\beta}=.312$, p=.030) of international marriage women was identified as a significant predictor of life satisfaction, i.e., discrimination experience affects the life satisfaction. Therefore, this study recommends programs can regulate the discrimination experience to improve life satisfaction.

본 연구는 결혼이주여성의 차별경험과 삶의 만족도 사이의 관계를 확인하기 위한 연구이다. 본 연구는 A 도시의 다문화 가정 지원 센터를 다니는 108명의 결혼이주여성을 대상으로 설문조사한 조사연구로, 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 결혼이주여성의 차별경험의 평균은 2.15점, 삶의 만족도는 3.93점 이었다. 또한 차별경험과 삶의 만족도는 부적 상관관계를 가지고 있었다(r=-.289, p<.001). 결혼이주여성의 차별경험은 이들의 삶의 만족도에 유의한 예측인자로 나타났다(${\beta}=.312$, p=.030). 이러한 결과에 따라 본 연구에서는 결혼이주여성의 차별경험이 삶의 만족도에 영향 미치는 것을 나타났다. 그러므로 이러한 결과를 기반으로 결혼이주여성의 삶의 만족도를 향상시키기 위한 차별경험 조절 프로그램 연구를 제안한다.
