The purpose of this study is to analyze the cause-and-effect relationships among positive verbal expressions from family members, social network, and disability identity as the determinant factors of intention to work. To achieve the goal, 453 persons with disabilities and with experiences of using facilities for the disabled were studied, who were recruited for the national survey of domestic violence in 2010. For the research subjects, the cause-and-effect relationships among the major factors were examined by using a structural equation model. According to the results, disability identity and intent to work tended to be higher as they had experienced more of positive verbal expressions from their families. Moreover, a more participation in social activities increased disability identity, but not intent to work. Lastly, disability identity was found to be a determinant of intent to work. Based on the results, we provide suggestions to achieve social inclusion of people with disabilities by raising the intent to work.

'전 국민의 1인 사회복지사 자격증 시대' 사회복지사 자격증취득과 관련된 각종 스팸메일과 현 자격취득 과정을 고려해 볼 때 아마 이러한 시대가 곧 다가오지 않을까 싶다. 사회보지사의 역할이 가중되는 사회적 흐름상에서 이러한 관심은 긍정적이나, 무분별하게 검증 없는 과정을 통해 쉽게 사회복지사라는 꼬리를 달고 사회 속으로 내던져지고 있다. 자칭 '전문가'로서 인식되어 지기를 바라는 우리 사회복지계의 노력은 점점 무색해지고, 어쩌면 Imitation Social Worker가 우리의 자리를 점점 더 조여 들어 올 수도 있을 것이다. 물론 이런 사회보지사 자격제도의 허점은 거슬러 올라 미흡한 사회복지사업법에서 찾아 볼 수 있고, 하루빨리 법 개정을 시행해야하는 중요한 과제를 안고 있다.

차흥봉 보건복지부장관의 좌우명은 '열심히 살기'다. 쉽고도 어려운 말이지만, 차 장관은 말 그대로 어떤 일이든 긍정적으로 생각하고 적극적으로 추진하는 자세를 잃지 않는다. 지난해 8월, 그가 보건복지부장관으로 임명되었을 때, 의료보험 통합ㆍ전국민 연금제도ㆍ의약분업 등 굵직하고 복잡한 문제들이 산적해 있었다. 하루도 거르지 않고 언론ㆍ시민 단체 등에서 시시비비를 논하는 상황이었지만, 차 장관은 모든 일을 국민의 입장에서 합리적으로 생각하고 소신 있게 업무를 처리해 대부분의 일을 정상퀘도에 올려놓았다는 평을 받고 있다. 새천년에는 모든 국민이 공평하게 건강과 복지를 누릴 수 있는 시대를 만들어 가겠다는 꿈을 '새천년 복지 비전 2010'으로 구체화된 차흥봉 장관으로부터 새해의 복지 정책에 관해 들어 본다.

This study examined the relationship between parent-child relationship experiences in childhood and adulthood, and individual development and psychological well-being in mid to later life using structural equation modeling with data from 1,882 parents who have at least one child over 18 years old. Findings indicated that receiving more affectionate parenting in childhood was associated with greater generativity development, more positive parental experiences with one's own children, and better psychological well-being in mid to later adulthood. In addition, the effects of received parenting in childhood on psychological well-being after midlife were partially mediated by parental experiences with adult children and generativity development. These findings suggest that early experiences with parents in childhood continuously influence psychological well-being in adulthood through their impact on concurrent family experiences. However, early influences can be redirected through adult experiences too. These findings have implications for the development of intervention programs aimed at promoting volunteer work for older adults, as well as for practitioners who work with families and individuals who are having problems.

여성에 대한 긍정적인 연구와 이해가 있어왔지만 여전히 우리나라에서는 남아선호 대한 인식이 뿌리깊게 남아있는 것이 사실이다. 각종 대중매체를 통해 다루어지는 부정적인 여성의 이미지에서 벗어나 사회 각 분야에서 노력하고 있는 여성에 대한 긍정적인 메시지가 많이 다루어지길 기대한다.

How do Korean people recognize major welfare policies of the Moon Jae-in government? Using a survey of 1,000 adults conducted in December 2018, this study examines what the public thinks about major issues related to welfare policies and what factors are related to variations in their opinions regarding the welfare policies. Results show that the public recognized the roles of government in providing welfare in a positive way. The positive opinion on expanding the coverage of National Health Insurance was the highest. Regarding the resolutions of fiscal problems of the National Pension Plan, there were substantial oppositions to reforms such as insurance premium increase, benefits cut, and increase in the age of receipt of pension benefits. Both efficiency and equality were perceived as important when government makes decision for allocating budgets.
