핵 가족화, 고령화가 가속화되고 도시 독거노인 및 독신인구가 급증합에 따라, 외로움과 소외감을 극복하고 또 다른 형태의 가족적 유대감을 얻기 위하여 반려동물, 반려인들이 날로 증가하고 있다. 반려동물 문화는 급격히 발전하고 있는데 반해, 이를 지탱할 수 있는 사회나 문화적 의식과 공공 기반시설의 질적수준은 초기 단계수준이다. 반려견 소유자와 일반인들 사이에 갈등이 발생하여 관련 제도나 법에 대해 논란이 되고 있다. 갈등과 논란을 해소하며 반려동물 문화 발전에 기여하고자 본 연구는 도시 내 반려인 전용 주거 시설의 개념과 역할, 공동 주거 시설로서의 사회적 필요성을 고찰하고, 새로운 공동 집합 주거 공간의 방향을 제안한다.

우리 사회의 고부관계는 예로부터 갈등관계로 인식되어져 왔다. 핵가족화, 여성취업 등 오늘날의 많은 사회적 변화에도 불구하고 여전히 고부관계는 복잡하고 갈등적인 가족문제에서 벗어나지 못하고 있다. 본 연구는 고부관계에서 일어나는 스트레스 유무 그 자체보다 이에 대한 효율적인 대처방법이 더 중요함을 인식하고 첫째, 고부관계에서 며느리가 지각하는 스트레스의 유형과 그 정도는 어떠하며 둘째, 스트레스에 대한 며느리의 대처유형과 그 정도는 어떠하며 셋째, 대처유형과 스트레스 정도에는 어떤 관련성이 있는가를 살펴보고자 하였다.
