한국 중년 남녀들의 무급노동을 비교 분석하려는 목적을 가진 본 연구는 가사노동과 가족들 보기를 하는 비율과 그 시간량을 분석하고 있다. 가사노동과 가족돌보기가 여전히 여성들의 몫으로 간주된다고는 하지만 얼마나 많은 여성과 남성들이 이러한 일들을 하고 있으며, 이에 사용되는 시간이 얼마인지에 대한 구체적인 분석을 드물다. 본 연구에서는 1999년도 생활시간조사를 이용하여 한국의 40대와 50대 중년층의 가사노동과 가족돌보기를 행하는 비율과 그 시간량을 기술하는 한편, 이들의 가구, 개인, 거주지역 및 요일특성에 따른 차이를 제시하고 있다. 주요 결과로는 중년층 여자들의 경우 본 연구에서 고려한 특성과 관계없이 대부분이 가사노동을 하고 있는 반면, 남자들은 특성에 따라 가사노동을 하는 비율의 차이가 발견된다는 것이다. 또한 가사노동 시간량에서는 남자들과는 달리 여자들에게서 동거가구원이 적을수록 가사노동의 시간 또한 적음을 알 수 있다. 가족돌보기의 경우에는 가구특성이 중요하게 나타나고 있다. 특히 남자들과는 달리, 여자들 중에서 유배우자들은 무배우자들보다 가족돌보기를 하는 비율이나 시간이 많은 것으로 나타난다. 이는 남편이 아내를 돌보기보다는 아내가 남편을 수발하거나 보살피는 것이 더 보편적임을 다시 확인시켜 준다.

The actual time fathers spend in childcare has not increased much in spite of recent attention paid to nurturing their children and changes in the fathers' role. In this study, parenting time is measured by time spent in childcare, shared housework, and shared leisure. In this way, this study seeks to analyze trends in fathers' time spent with children and the factors that influence fathers' participation in parenting. The data source for this study was the 2009 Korean Time Use Survey. The main results of this research are as follows: First, when measuring childcare time as a primary activity, fathers' time spent in parenting averaged 17 minutes on weekdays and 32 minutes on Sundays. This extended to 44 minutes on weekdays and 166 minutes on Sundays when including the secondary childcare time and the shared time with their children while doing housework or leisure. Second, fathers' probability of participating in childcare was higher for fathers who had shorter working hours, younger children, higher spouse average monthly income, and a college or higher education level. The variable that influenced fathers' participation in shared housework on weekdays was working hours. On Sundays, the variables were working hours, age of the youngest child, and the type of occupation. Fathers' participation in shared leisure was influenced by father's working hours, number of children, age of the youngest child, and type of occupation on weekdays. On Sundays, it was influenced by working hours and the age of the youngest child.

This study aims to design, develop the impact of a high school course in practical problem- focused teaching plan which will enable students to deal with an aging society, and prepare well for the aging by looking at issues the elderly face. This study set a target of analyzing the 2007 revised curriculum manual to develop instructor-led teaching and learning plans for 'Successful aging preparation'. Five common subjects were reframed on a practical problem basis through factor analysis of preliminary research regarding aging education for teenagers and the 2007 revised curriculum and textbooks of Technology Home Economics, and Human Development. The practical problem was 'What do we need to do to Successfully live an independent life in aging?', and the subjects studied to answer this question were the aging society and population changes. the nature of the elderly, aging preparation, care of the elderly, and welfare services for the elderly. These five subjects were grouped under the main categories of The Aging Society. Understanding the Elderly, and aging Preparation. The ultimate objective of the lessons was, through critical reasoning, to inquire into the causes of current problems the elderly face so that teenagers can understand aging societies and the elderly, and prepare for a Successful aging. Another objective was to seek reasonable alternatives for teenagers as they prepare for Successful and independent aging, and increase their problem-solving abilities in choosing the best course of action by considering the ripple effect of consequences of each of those alternatives. The practical problem-teaching lesson plans consisted of five classes on practical reasoning instruction. This study suggests that new high school curricula should include lessons on preparation for aging so that students can deal successfully with our aging society.
