This study examines whether the widening gap between income groups is worsening in the distribution of time use, similar to the worsening of income distribution after the IMF. To do this, we conducted multilevel analysis (HLM) on six countries including France, the Netherlands, Spain, the United Kingdom, the United States and Korea. The results of the analysis are as follows. First, in all countries, low income groups have a longer paid working time and shorter leisure time. Second, the low income groups in Korea have the longest paid work time and the shortest leisure time, the lowest level of work-leisure balance, and this aspect has not recovered since the IMF. Third, as the result of multilevel analysis, the lower the household income, the more time paid labor increased and the work-leisure balance decreased. Fourth, while average annual working hours increase paid working time, the expansion of family policy expenditure, redistribution policy and income maintenance policy has reduced it. Fifth, the annual average working hours decreased the work-leisure balance, but the family policy expenditure, the redistribution policy and the income guarantee policy increased the work-leisure balance. The significance of this study is that after the IMF, not only the income distribution but also the inequality among the income class in time use has deepened. Based on the results of the research this study suggests the reinforcement of labor time regulation, the activation of parental leave system, the realization of the income replacement rate, the expansion of the policy related to income redistribution, and the complementary development of the income guarantee and the time guarantee policy as the policy intervention strategy that restructures time.

In this paper, I examine the impacts of father's education, a proxy for family wealth and income, on the individual's education, occupational choice and labor force status. I find that father's education influences the level of individual educational investment and occupational choices directly, whose findings are quite different from those of Blau and Duncan(l967) and Phang and Kim(2000). I also find that father's higher level of education induces an individual to withdraw from the labor force, which results in erosion of inequality among family. Therefore I argue that the inheritance of inequality in family wealth tends to persist, while the erosion of inequality proceeds, as well.

The need for preparation for old life has been further increased due to the increase of the elderly population and changes in economic conditions today. The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between income instability and the degree of preparation for old life and satisfaction of current life. The key variables were extracted through prior study review. And the data collected through the survey were statistically analyzed with a structural equation model. The analysis found that the indirect effect of the current income risk on the satisfaction of current life through the preparation for old life had a significant negative effect under the statistically significant level of 0.05. However, it was found that the direct effects of current income risk on the satisfaction of current life were not statistically significant. An additional analysis was conducted by dividing the age, the number of dependents by two groups respectively. To summarize the results, preparation for old life played a significant role as a prerequisite for improving the satisfaction of current life. And the variability(risk) of current income played an important role in preparing for old life. At this time, the degree of relevance between the factors(potential variables) differed somewhat between the two groups. The results of this analysis will be meaningful in providing basic source of data to prepare for a satisfactory life in each individual's current situation. This study, meanwhile, has limitations that have only been done with cross-sectional analysis and would like to analyze time-series changes in the future.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the impact of parental resources and parenting stress on parenting efficacy in low-income families Furthermore, in order to verify whether parental resources function as a resilience factor, a structural model was established to assess the suitability and influence of the variables. A total of 603 parents of children and adolescents between the ages of 9-18 were selected from the data from Children and Adolescents Comprehensive Status Research (2009) by the Ministry for Health, Welfare and Family Affairs. For the analyses, SPSS WIN 18.0 and AMOS 18.0 were utilized. The major results were as follows: First, the suitability of the model was confirmed with variables presenting a satisfying fit. Second, parental resources had a negative effect on parenting stress and a positive effect on parenting efficacy. Third, parenting stress had a negative effect on parenting efficacy. Finally, a test of the structural equation model supports the hypothesis that parental resources have a significant direct effect as well as an indirect effect through parenting stress on parenting efficacy. The implications for further studies and practice were discussed.

This study analyzed the effect of poverty on children's health, using data from wave 1-5(2004-2008) lf the Seoul Panel Study of Children surveys(SPSC). The analysis results indicated that poverty has a negative effect on child health over time when controlling for potential variables that mediate the family income-child health association. There was also a strong cumulative effect of poverty that explains much of the strengthening association between the length of poverty and child health. The negative effect of poverty on child health could be enhanced through poor mother-child relationship and marital conflict. This finding suggests that programs to improve child health, by implication, will require family level interventions such as increasing income support and improving care-giving and family interaction.

Since the end of the World War II, the population explosion of developing countries has been a global concern. However, the impact of family planning program effort to reduce fertility is difficult to measure, as the effort level is endogenously determined. This paper studies if the family planning program impact is substantial and statistically significant in fertility reduction using fixed effect analysis. The fixed effect estimate shows that there is little impact of family planning program effort on fertility. Only the higher income countries showed significant negative impact.

본 연구에서는 주부가 가족자원을 적정하게 지각하는데 영향을 미치는 요인과 주부의 가정관리수행에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분석하고, 가족자원에 대한 적정지각이 가정관리수 행에 어떤 영향을 미치는지를 규명하고자 한다. 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 주부는 대인관 계자원과 주거자원에 대한 적저지각이 가장 높고, 건강자원, 지식.기술자원, 시간자원, 지역사회자원, 금전자원의 순으로 저정하게 지각하고 있다. 둘째, 전체 가족자원적정지각에 영향을 미치는 변수는 학력, 월평균소득, 취업유무, 하루평균 가사노동시간, 주택소유형태, 내구재소유수이다. 세째, 주부의 대상별 가정 관리수행 수준에서는 기질.성격에 대한 관리수행 수준이 가장 높고, 그 다음은 애정관리이며, 지식.기술에 대한 수행이 가장 낮게 나타났다. 네 째, 주부의 대상별 가정관리수행에 전반적으로 유의한 영향을 미치는 변수는 주부가 지각하는 남편의 가사조력도이다. 끝으로, 전체 대상별 가정관리수행은 전체 가족자원적정지각과 정적상관을 가지며, 주부가 지식.기술자원을 보다 적정하게 지각할수록 전체관리수행 수준은 높게 나타났다.

본 연구는 수험생 자녀를 둔 가족의 정신, 신체적 건강이 크게 위협받고 있음을 중시하고, 부모와 수험생 자녀가 겪는 스트레스를 인지, 대처, 디스트레스의 각 측면으로 측정하고 관련 변인을 분석함으로써, 이들 가족의 스트레스 극복을 위한 적절한 방안을 강구해보고자 하는데 그 목적을 두고 고등학교 3학년 재학생과 그 부모 3인을 한쌍으로 360가족, 1080명을 대상으로 자료수집 하였으며, 주요 분석결과는 다음과 같다. 1) 자녀의 학업스트레스가 가장 높게 나타났으며 다음은 모, 부의 순으로 나타났으나 모, 부간의 차이가 크지 않아 부, 모, 자녀의 순으로 대처능력이 높게 나타나 자녀는 높은 스트레스를 인지하면서도 적절한 대체방안을 사용하지 못하고 있음을 알수 있다 2) 부모자녀의 스트레스 상관도는 자녀의 경 우 스트레스 인지와 디스트레스간의 상관이 비교적 높고 부모의 경우는 스트레스 대처와 디스트레스간의 상관이 높다. 또한 부부간 스트레스는 상관이 높지만 부모 자녀간에는 상관이 높지 않게 나타나고 있다. 3) 자녀의 지원대학 수준모의 학력이나 가족의 소득부의 직업 수준등이 낮은 경우 부모나 수험생 자녀의 스트레스가 높게 나타나고 가족응집성, 자녀의 자아 정체감 학업성취욕, 부모의 결혼만족도, 부와의 친밀성, 부모 자녀 갈등등은 스트레스 수준에 영향을 미치는 중요변인이며 이러한 영향력은 모두 자신의 지각에 따라 반응한다.

This study attempt to explore relation between parents-adolescent communication and family resilience objects to university students. For this, we study a difference of parents-adolescent communication and subfactors of family resilience according to demographic characteristics, and a relation between parents-adolescent communication and sub-factors of family resilience. In difference of parents-adolescent communication results of analysis are as follows. Dialogue time with father, age, and dialogue time with mother are significant. Also, in difference of between sub-factors of family resilience according to demographic characteristics, the more monthly income of family, the longer time of dialogue with parents, family resilience is high.
