Abstract

This study was conducted to compare of dietary behaviors of young and temporary workers with older and permanent workers of single-person households. A questionnaire survey was conducted by purposive quota sampling(n=566) by age groups(20~59 years old) and status of workers(temporary workers, permanent workers and business owners). Compared to other age groups, 20s had lower average monthly income and cost of eating-out, and they rarely cooked at home and mainly bought food and groceries at convenience stores(p<0.001). This pattern was similar to temporary workers compare to other groups. This study will be meaningful as a basic data for creating a healthy living environment for temporary workers and 20s of single-person households.

경제활동을 하는 1인가구 중 비정규직 및 20대 청년층의 경우 다른 고용형태 및 다른 연령층과 식생활 행태에 차이가 있는지를 비교하고자 1인가구를 고용형태(비정규직, 정규직, 사업자) 및 연령별(20-59세)로 층화 추출하여 월평균수입 및 외식비용, 식생활 등을 조사하여 분석하였다(총 566명). 20대 1인가구는 타 연령에 비하여 월평균수입(p<0.001) 및 외식비용이 낮고, 식생활에 신경쓰지 않는 비율이 높았다(p<0.01). 집에서 요리는 거의 하지 않고(p<0.05), 식품은 주로 편의점에서 구입하는 비율이 더 높게 나타났으며(p<0.001), 이러한 양상은 비정규직에서도 비슷하게 나타났다(p<0.001). 본 연구는 비정규직 및 20대 청년층의 비율이 높은 1인가구의 특성에 맞는 건강 식생활 환경을 위한 기초자료로 활용 가능할 것이다.
