Abstract

This study was attempted to identify the marital intimacy, spousal support, sexual autonomy and empowerment of married immigrant Vietnamese women. This study was conducted to 119 Vietnamese women who migrated for marriage, and it took place from May to September, 2018. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, ANOVA and Pearson's correlation coefficients. Marital intimacy $3.17{\pm}0.69$, spousal support $3.45{\pm}0.94$, sexual autonomy $3.70{\pm}0.83$ and varied according to educational level(p=.011), and empowerment varied according to economic level(p<.001). There was a difference in intimacy and support depending on the marriage period. There is a very strong correlation between variables(p<.005). Married immigrant women showed moderate marital intimacy, spousal support, high correlation with sexual autonomy and two variables, and empowerment correlated with sexual autonomy. Based on these findings, it seems to be necessary to find a way to increase the empowerment of Vietnamese women and to develop an intervention programs.

본 연구는 결혼이주 베트남여성을 대상으로 부부친밀감, 배우자지지, 성적자율성 및 임파워먼트를 측정하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 자료수집은 2018년 5월부터 9월까지 한국남성배우자와 살고 있는 베트남 여성 119명을 대상으로 조사하였다. 자료의 분석은 ANOVA와 Pearson's correlation coefficient로 분석하였다. 부부친밀감은 $3.17{\pm}0.69$, 배우자지지 $3.45{\pm}0.94$, 성적자율성 $3.70{\pm}0.83$, 임파워먼트는 $3.41{\pm}0.57$이었고, 부부친밀감, 배우자지지와 성적 자율성 간에는 높은 정의 상관을 보였고(p<.001), 임파워먼트는 배우자지지와 성적자율성 간에 정적 상관을 보였다(p<.005). 본 연구결과를 바탕으로 결혼이주 베트남여성들의 임파워먼트를 높이기 위한 방안 모색 및 중재 프로그램을 개발이 필요하다고 사료된다.
