The purpose of the current research is to reconstruct the process in which changes in elderly support take place from the perspective of the elderly in rural areas. Six elderly couples were interviewed three times with the use of Schütze's 'autobiographical-narrative interview'. The entire interviews consisted of 17 sessions. Interviewed data was analyzed, following the method of Schütze's 'autobiographical-narrative interview analysis'. Research findings were as follows: Elderly support as experienced by the current elderly couples is mainly 'family support', which turned out to be 'dual structural shift' in the process of modernization. That is, there has been an 'internal structural shift' from 'family support on intergenerational, mutual support dimension' to 'family support on intragenerational self-support dimension' on the one hand. An 'external structural shift' has been noticed that realizes the 'socialization of family support' on the other hand. Additionally, a 'discrepancy' was captured between support norm and support behavior as occurred in the process of 'dual structural shift'. Perception on the 'dual structural shift' has proven 'ambivalent'. On the basis of these results, a critical discussion of modernization theory ensued, along with some implications for practice.

2004년 12월 17일, 정부혁신위원회는 가족정책을 기존 보건복지부에서 여성부로 이관 할 계획이라고 밝혔는데, 지난 3월 2일 국회 본회의에서 이와 관련된 '정부 조직법'이 통과됨으로써 오는 5월부터 본격적으로 가동되게 된다. 이는 여성부가 여성가족부로 확대, 개편됨에 따라 앞으로 가족정책을 모두 총괄하는 기능을 갖는 다는 의미인데, 작년 사회복지제도가 격렬하게 반대의견을 내건 '건강가정기본법'과 '모.부자복지법이 이관된다. 이 같은 변화는 지난 2001년 여성의 권익증진, 차별개선 등 여성정책 시행을 위해 여성부가 출범하여 지난해 '영유아보육 업무'를 이관 받은 뒤 5년도 체 안되어 가족업무까지 맡겨져 여성부의 어깨를 한층 더 무겁게 하는 것이다. 정부혁신지방분권위는 작년 말 이 같은 계획을 발표하여 전통적 가족구조가 무너져 가족해체 현상이 크게 나타나며, 이에 대한 국가차원의 종합적인 예방정책의 1단계로 이같이 조정했다고 밝혔다. 그리고 이전부터 여성청소년가족부를 만들어 통합관리하자는 주장을 제기해 온 여성부도 이번 변화에 대해 굳은 의지를 보였다.

The purposes of this study were to investigate the effects of professional soldiers' family healthiness on the organizational effectiveness of the military and test for any differences in the structural modeling path caused by the mediating effects of empowerment depending on whether they lived with their families or not. Data were collected with a self-administered survey distributed to 480 professional soldiers after the approval of the Ministry of National Defense. The data collected were then analyzed using descriptive statistics, structural equation modeling, and multi-group analysis. The analysis results show that the family healthiness of all of the professional soldiers had direct or indirect effects on their organizational effectiveness via empowerment and that family healthiness was a variable with a very large explanatory power for organizational effectiveness. Both family healthiness and empowerment had effects on the organizational effectiveness of the solders that were living with their families and those who lived separately from their families. The levels of family healthiness, empowerment, and organizational effectiveness were all high among the professional soldiers that were living with their families and all low among those who were not. Increasing the family healthiness and empowerment was found to enhance the organizational effectiveness in all of the models, and a higher organizational effectiveness would be expected from professional soldiers living with their families. These findings led to a proposal that various plans should be prepared to help professional soldiers live with their families and provide them with family welfare support.

The significance of indirect paths was tested by a Sobel test. This study found that experiencing material hardship was directly associated with low levels of coping skills for family conflict and low levels of self-esteem, but not with alcohol use. However, material hardship was indirectly associated with alcohol use through low levels of coping skills for family conflict as well as low levels of self-esteem. The findings of this study suggest that experiencing material hardship among low-income households would be a socio-structural stressor for alcohol use, particularly in that it increases secondary role and intra-psychic strains. Implications to address material hardship and alcohol use among low-income households were discussed.
