Current discussions on productive aging are going towards the direction to sustain a social productivity and lessen a social burden, and this becomes distinct as it gives a strong value to the activity and independence of older people. This study highlights complex situations of productive activities in the group of older people by analyzing the survey of Among the productive activities of older people, two areas of activities - paid labor and social support - were interpreted differently according to their economic stability, spontaneity and family relations. This difference becomes more remarkable in the analysis on life satisfaction of older people. In paid work, which is the most common productive activity, there was a big difference in life satisfaction between those who work spontaneously and those who work inevitably to make a living. And in the comparison of life satisfaction for those who participate in homemaking and care working according to their economic situations and family relations, those who were unsatisfied with family relations showed lower life satisfaction.

The purpose of this study was to identify the factors influencing vocational training participation among individuals aged 65 and older in order to enhance their employability. According to the research findings, the educational background and economic activity status of the elderly significantly impact their participation in vocational training. It was confirmed that economic activity and vocational training are closely related to the capacity development and increased employability of the elderly. Moreover, a considerable number of elderly individuals express a continued desire to work, and this group tends to participate more in vocational training. This underscores the importance of promoting vocational training among the elderly and developing suitable models, which holds significant policy implications. Logistic regression analysis revealed that gender, education, economic activity, desire to work, and pension income affect participation in vocational training. This highlights the necessity of formulating specific strategies in government support policies, particularly for those with lower educational backgrounds. Additionally, the study emphasizes the importance of approaches that encourage vocational training participation, especially among those with lower pension income.

본 연구는 액티브시니어 여가활동 참여자의 자아존중감과 노년의 삶의 행복감에 미치는 영향을 알아보는데 그 목적이 있다. 액티브시니어들이 미래를 준비하는 여가활동의 중요성이 부각되어야 할 시점에서 미래지향적인 사고방식과 생활 의식을 보유하고 있으며 기존 고령자와 경제적 가치관등의 뚜렸한 차이를 보이고 있는 액티브시니어 여가활동 참여자의 자아존중감이 미치는 영향력을 분석하는 것은 100세 시대를 준비하는 액티브시니어의 보다 만족스러운 성공적인 노화와 행복한 삶을 극대화 시킬 수 있으리라 연구의 필요성을 제기하는 바이다.

우리 사회는 정보화와 다원화로 빠르게 변화하고 있다. 경제현상도 변화하고 마케팅의 기법도 다기해지고 있다. 네트워크마케팅(NWM)이란 다단계마케팅(MLM)과 통용되는 개념으로 직접마케팅(Direct Marketing) 기법 중의 하나로 비교적 새로운 유통방법이다. 피라미드와 혼동되어 한 때 비판의 대상이었던 네트워크 마케팅이 실정법에 근거한 새로운 경제활동의 하나로 국민경제에 기능하게 되었다. 올바른 네트워크 마케팅과 실정법에 대한 이해가 필요하며 경제활동의 하나인 이 분야에도 하나님의 주권과 방법이 실현될 필요가 있다. 이 사업에 참여한 성도들은 주님의 피로 사신 교회의 목적에 충실한 행동과 성숙한 신앙인의 자세와 태도로 임할 필요가 있다. 무엇보다도 자신의 재정적 능력범위에서 사업에 참여하는 것이 바람직하다. 일확천금이나 일시에 거금을 번다는 사실과 다른 선전에 현혹되지 말고 자기 자금이나 적정수준의 자본금으로 사업에 참여하는 것이 요구된다. 현행 방문판매법은 교사나 공무원 등의 우월적 지위를 이용하여 상대방에게 다단계 판매를 강요하는 것을 금지하고 있다. 교회에서도 교회 본래의 목적인 복음 전파와 예배 등의 활동과 상치되거나 방해해서는 곤란할 것이다. 자기의 구원과 삶이 바로 서고 이웃을 돌아보아 사랑을 실천하며 복음을 전파하고, 살아서 하나님의 나라를 이 땅에 구현하고 죽어 천국에서 주님과 함께하는 성숙한 신앙생활에 근거해야 할 것이다. 교회도 네트워크마케팅에 대한 바른 이해가 필요하며, 관련 교리에 대한 정확한 이해와 적용이 요구된다고 할 수 있다. 네트워크마케팅에 대한 실정법이 제정되어 있고 현실에 맞게 수차례 개정되어 오고 있으므로 이에 대한 바른 이해가 요청된다. 또한 과학의 발전에 중세의 교회가 이해를 새롭게 한 것처럼, 경제 현상의 변화에 대해서도 통전적인 이해가 요구된다. 이 세상은 근본적으로 하나님이 창조한 세상이기 때문에 이 세상 자체를 악하다고 볼 수 없고 더구나 구원을 이 세상에서의 이탈로 볼 수 없다. 진정한 구원이란 원래 하나님이 보시기에 아름다웠던 그 세상으로의 회복을 포함한다. 이런 면에서 하나님 주권 신앙 하에서 구원이란 전 인격적인 구원, 전 우주적인 구원이 된다. 그렇기 때문에 성도는 세상의 삶과 학문, 예술, 정치, 경제, 사회를 포함한 모든 분야를 하나님의 뜻 가운데서 그 원래의 목적에 부합할 수 있도록 회복시키는 일에 적극 참여해야 한다.

The purpose of this paper is to classify OECD countries in regard to levels of supporting fathers' care work. Several meaningful conclusions were reached. First, examining the level of supporting fathers' care work and the strength of the traditional bread-winner model, OECD countries can be classified into 5 different clusters. The result is different from the mainstream typology of welfare states and suggests the new typology of welfare states. Second, the level of supporting fathers' care work and the strength of the traditional bread-winner model were found to be related to total fertility rates and women's labor market participation rates. Third, in regard to the level of supporting fathers' care work, Korea was the lowest among OECD countries. This result points to one of the important reasons to the low level of total fertility rat, and low rate of women's labor market participation in Korea.

The purpose of this study was to verify the influence of stress upon life satisfaction and the mediating effects of leisure activities participation in terms of this relationship. The results of this study are as follows. First, out of the elderly stress, the family stress, economic stress and health issues stress had a significant negative effect on life satisfaction. Second, out of the elderly stress, the family stress, economic stress and health issues stress had a significant negative effect on leisure activities participation. Third, the leisure activities participation had a meaningful positive impact on life satisfaction. Lastly, the leisure activities participation appeared to have a significant mediation effect in the influential relationship between elderly stress and life satisfaction. Through the results of this study, the leisure activities participation was indicated to mediate the influential relationship between elderly stress and life satisfaction, thereby having been able to be confirmed significance as alternative resource. Hence, the elderly's leisure activities participation alleviates a negative impact on stress, thereby seeming to be likely capable of being used as an intervention measure to improve elderly people's life satisfaction.

This paper intends to provide information about whichgroups should receive particular attention from policies aimed at raising participation and employment. A detailed portrait of the diversity of non-employment is presented with description of the extent the under-represented groups stayed in situations of labor inactivity. Also, once in employment, how these groups move from one sector to another is a main interest in the analysis. Using longitudinal data (1998-2002) constructed from 'the economically active population survey', I followed individuals over a five-year period and analyzed how frequently inactive persons enter the labor market and how they change industries and statuses.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of participation in cultural activities on happiness. The empirical results show that participation in cultural activities has a positive impact on individual happiness, because cultural activities cause entertainment and social contacts with people. Furthermore, the levels of income and education are analyzed by dividing them into high and low groups. Noteworthy is that the low-income and less-educated groups show lower participation in cultural activities than those in the high-income and well-educated groups, But the utility magnitude gained through cultural activities is higher. This implies that opportunity costs arising from financial and time constraints are greater in the low-income and less-educated groups than in the high-income and well-educated groups. Finally, for the low-income group, the marginal utility is reduced when spending on cultural activities exceeds certain levels, which means there exist a budget constraint for the low-income group.

기술의 상업화를 추구하는 기술이전 활동의 참여자는 그 역할과 개인적 특성에 따라 다양한 목적을 가진다. 본 논문은 이러한 참여자들의 역할의 차이가 기술이전 및 상업화의 성공에 미치는 영향을 분석하여 기술이전의 활성화에 관련된 정책적 시사점을 제시하는 데 그 목적이 있다. 먼저, 기술이전 및 상업화의 성공에 영향을 미치는 갈등 요인을 분석하기 위하여 기술이전 참여자를 중심으로 기술이전 과정에서의 참여 범위 및 권한에 대한 설문을 실시하였다. 기술이전참여자는 크게 공공연구소, 대학 등지에서 활동 중인 연구 개발 담당자, 기술이전기여자, 기술도입자 이렇게 세 부류로 구분하였으며, 연구개발 담당자는 다시 연구개발자와 연구개발책임자의 입장으로 나누어서 조사하였다. 또한 이러한 기준으로 분류된 참여자 간의 갈등의 유형을 다시 개인내의 갈등, 개인간의 갈등, 개인과 조직 간의 갈등, 조직 간의 갈등으로 구분하여 각 갈등 유형의 원인에 대해 인터뷰 형식으로 정보를 수집하였다. 설문지와 인터뷰를 위한 질문지는 문헌 조사 및 전문가와의 토론을 거쳐 완성되었으며 응답자는 하나의 기술이전 및 상업화 과정에 관련된 여러 주체들을 최소 설문단위로 묶어 선정하였다. 그리고 이에 대한 결과는 각 갈등의 원인에 대한 참여자의 유형 간의 편차를 보기 위하여 분산 분석(Z-Test)으로 해석하였다.
