Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of the elderly 's motivation for participation in lifelong education on career barriers and to analyze empirically the effect of income adjustment on this effect. For this purpose, 187 elderly people aged 65 or older participating in lifelong education programs in D city were studied. The correlation of major variables was confirmed and multiple regression analysis was conducted to analyze the moderating effect. To that end, the city conducted a study on 187 senior citizens aged 65 or older who were participating in a lifelong education program. The correlation of the main variables was checked and the middle and multiple return analysis was performed to analyze the adjustment effects. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of the elderly 's motivation to participate in lifelong education on career barriers and empirically analyze the effect of income adjustment on this effect. For this purpose, 187 elderly people aged 65 or older participating in lifelong education programs in D city were studied. The results of the analysis are as follows. First, it was confirmed that elderly 's motivation to participate in lifelong education had negative effects on career barriers. The elderly who participated or participated in lifelong education developed their abilities and recognized that their career barriers were reduced by their recognition. Second, income of the elderly was negatively influenced on career barriers. The higher the income, the more the negative relation of the career barrier is strengthened. Third, income has a moderating effect on the relationship between elderly motivation to participate in lifelong education and career barriers. Based on the results of this study, the discussion and implications are presented.

본 연구는 노인의 평생교육 참여동기가 진로장벽에 미치는 영향을 파악하고, 이 영향에 대한 소득의 조절효과를 실증적으로 분석하는 것을 목적으로 수행되었다. 이러한 목적을 달성하기 위해 본 연구에서 확인한 구체적인 연구문제는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 노인의 평생교육 참여동기가 진로장벽에 미치는 효과는 어떠한가? 둘째, 노인의 소득이 진로장벽에 미치는 영향은 어떠한가? 셋째, 노인의 평생교육 참여동기와 진로장벽의 관계에서 소득의 조절효과는 어떠한가? 이를 위해 D시에서 평생교육프로그램에 참여하고 있는 65세 이상의 노인 187명을 대상으로 연구를 진행하였다. 연구의 결과를 위해 주요변수의 상관관계를 확인하였으며, 조절효과를 분석하기 위해 중다회귀분석을 실시하였다. 자료를 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 노인의 평생교육 참여동기는 진로장벽에 부적인 영향이 있음을 확인했다. 평생교육에 참여하거나 참여한 노인은 능력을 발전시키고, 인정받음으로써 진로장벽이 감소됨을 알 수 있었다. 둘째, 노인의 소득은 진로장벽에 유의한 부적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되었다. 소득이 많을수록 진로장벽의 부적 관계가 강화됨을 확인했다. 셋째, 노인의 평생교육 참여동기와 진로장벽의 관계에서 소득은 조절효과를 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 연구결과를 토대로 논의와 시사점을 제시하였다.
