장애인 가구원의 취업여부가 가족관계만족도에 미치는 영향: 자산수준과 우울감의 매개효과 검증

The Effect of Employment Status of People with Disabilities on Family Relationship Satisfaction: Focusing on Mediating Effects of Asset and Depression

본 연구는 한국복지패널조사의 11차년도(2016) 자료를 사용하여 장애인 가구원의 가족관계만족도에 영향을 미치는 요인들의 영향력과 관련성을 살펴보고 또, 요인들 간의 경로를 파악하고자 경로분석을 통해 분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과에 의하면, 장애인 가구원의 취업여부는 자산수준, 우울감, 가족관계만족도에 직접적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 그리고 자산수준은 우울감과 가족관계만족도에 직접적인 영향을 미치고 우울감 또한 가족관계만족도에 직접적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다. 다음으로 취업여부와 우울감 사이에서 자산수준의 완전 매개효과가 나타났으며, 자산수준과 가족관계만족도 사이에서 우울감의 부분 매개효과가, 그리고 취업여부와 가족관계만족도 간의 관계에서 자산수준과 우울감의 다중 부분매개효과가 검증되었다. 본 연구는 장애인의 저하된 가족관계만족도를 향상시기 위해서 Sherraden 교수의 자산효과이론을 재조명하였으며, 무엇보다도 본 연구는 성인 장애인 가구원을 대상으로 하는 차별화된 저축 프로그램 등 자산형성 프로그램를 설계하는 데 기초자료를 제시하였다는 데에 의의가 있다.

This study investigates paths among factors influencing family relationship satisfaction of person with disability using path analysis and the 11th panel data of KoWePS(Korean Welfare Panel Study). While key independent variables include employment status, assets and depression are mediators. The result of this study are as follows: First, employment status, assets, and depression are found to have direct effect on family relationship satisfaction. Second, assets are found to have direct effect on depression. Third, we found full mediating effect of assets between employment status and depression. Fourth, we found not full but partial mediating effect of depression between assets and family relationship satisfaction. Finally, we found multiple partial mediating effects of employment status and family relationship satisfaction. The findings proposed that economic education as well as asset management targeting the disabled are required and very helpful to support their family relationship satisfaction. Based on the results of this study, we need to think about the disabled-oriented asset-building programs.This study investigates paths among factors influencing family relationship satisfaction of person with disability using path analysis and the 11th panel data of KoWePS(Korean Welfare Panel Study).
