이 연구는 한국 기혼부부가 가사노동을 어떻게 분담하고 있고, 가사노동시간의 배분에 영향을 미치는 요인이 무엇인지 검증하고 있다. 개인적인 차원에서 부부인 남성과 여성이 어떻게 가사노동을 분담하는지 밝히기 위해 성 이데올로기론, 시간제약이론, 상대적 자원이론 등 세 이론을 검토한 후 가설을 설정하였다. 가설을 검증하기 위해 2004년 생활시간조사 자료 가운데 현재 결혼해서 부부가 함께 한 가구에서 살고 있는 경우만 추출하고 부부의 자료를 하나의 레코드로 변환하여 부부의 가사노동분업에 영향을 미치는 요인을 검증하였다. 연구결과 성 이데올로기론에서 나온 성역할에 관한 태도는 남성이나 여성 모두 가사노동시간을 결정하는 데 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 성역할에 관한 태도나 가치가 가사노동이라는 행위에 영향을 미치지 않는 것이다. 그러나 시간제약이론에 따라 설정된 상대적 노동시간은 남성과 여성의 가사노동시간에 큰 영향을 미친다. 이 변수가 들어간 모형의 설명력이 특히 여성의 경우 높게 나타나고 상대적 노동시간이 가사노동시간에 미친 영향은 남성과 여성 모두에 유의미하고 영향은 남성과 여성 모두 비선형적인 형태를 나타낸다. 반면에 상대적 자원이론에 따른 상대적 소득의 효과는 남성의 경우 여성의 소득이 증가하면 남성의 가사노동 참여가 꾸준히 증가하는 현상을 나타내며, 여성의 경우는 일단 여성의 소득이 있게 되면 소득의 다과에 관계없이 일정하게 가사노동을 줄이는 것으로 보인다.

As divorce and singlehood have been on the rise over the last decades, marital statuses are more diverse than the past for middle-aged men and women in South Korea. While marital status is crucial for health behaviors and statuses, but few studies examine the associations between health differentials and marital status for the middle-aged in South Korea. Using the 2010 Social Survey collected by the Statistics Korea, this study analyzes how health behaviors and statuses vary by the marital status. In particular, this paper examines whether marital statuses and gender interact to influence health behaviors and statuses. I find that married middle-aged people are healthier than divorced, single, and widowed middle-aged people. But this the negative influence of the non-married status are much greater for men than women. Some female non-married groups do not differ from married middle-aged people in some indicators of health behaviors. Single female middle-aged people are better in general satisfaction levels than married middle-aged people.

As a pioneering study on wife rape, this study focuses on identifying the prevalence, the correlates of the individual social class and domestic violence background, and the perception of wife rape. This study uses the data based on the survey 224 married men and women who reside in Daegu, Korea. The result of this study shows that about 42.4% married men have experienced any type of wife rape. The most prevalent wife rape is force only wife rape(36.4%). Battering rape(12.1%) and sadistic rape(10.4%) are also found as significant coercive sexual issue among Korean couples. Monthly income and child abuse experience are found as significant predictors for the wife rape of married men. In addition, wife's religious enthusiasm is also negatively correlated with wife rape propensity, although the effect is not strong. The living standards is found as a strong correlate of women's propensity of being raped from their husbands. Thus, our practical attention should be given to those who have financial difficulties in low economic status, and to those who have significant child abuse experience, in order to prevent wife rape. Overall, married men and married women show pretty negative perceptions of wife rape, however, some of them are still positive of it. It is interesting that married men show a very defensive attitude against the proposal of establishing legal punishment for the people who commit wife rape. According to the gender, there is a considerable difference between men and women in terms of both the degree of acceptance of, and the demand for legal punishment of wife rape. It is problematic that the married women with a greater experience of being raped by husbands show far greater tolerance of wife rape than those with a less experience of it. These findings give us significant practical implications for social work intervention.

This study aims to verify the influence of married men in their 30s and 40s on smartphone addiction, the mediating effect of depression, and the moderating effect according to age. To this end, samples were set up as a convenient sampling for married men in their 30s and 40s living in the Seoul, Gyeonggi, Incheon metropolitan. To verify the influence relationship, mediating effect, and moderation effect of the main variables, we compare the differences in influence by dividing age groups through spss win 25 program Baron & Kenny's analysis, Sobel test, and multi-regression analysis. The analysis results are as follows. First, stress has a positive effect on depression and smartphone addiction, and depression has a positive effect on smartphone addiction. Second, depression has been shown to have a partial mediating effect in the relationship between stress and smartphone addiction. Third, there was a difference in influence between stress and smartphone addiction depending on age groups. Based on the above results, we present policy implications and follow-up research suggestions.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of family stress on work stress and to examine the effects of family and work stress on psychological wellbeing in employed men and women. The analyses of the present study were based on a sample of 263 full-time employed men and 258 full-time employed women aged 30-49 in dual-earner families. There were significant gender differences in marital stress, parenting stress and psychological well-being with women reporting higher levels of stress. However, employed men and women experienced similar levels of work stress. The results from regression analyses showed that stress in the family domain contributed significantly to work stress. Both marital stress and parenting stress were significantly related to higher levels of work stress fro employed men and women. The findings of this study indicated that higher levels of marital stress and work stress were predictive of psychological well-being for men and women in dual-earner couples. Among employed women, marital stress and work stress were more highly related to psychological well-being than among employed men.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of personal, family, and job characteristics on married male postal delivery workers' overall life satisfaction. For this purpose, we surveyed 263 married male postal delivery workers between October 1st to 21st, 2008, and analyzed the data with multiple regression analysis. The results of this study were as follows: First, postal workers earned a low level of income, and their quality of health was not good relative to their age. They had severe work-family conflict, but could support and communicate with colleagues well. Second, even though they felt little opportunities and difficulties in lives, they moderately satisfied with everyday lives. Third, 43% of their satisfaction was explained by personal, family, and job related variables. Levels of workfamily conflict (${\beta}=-.31^{***}$), work support with colleagues (${\beta}=.25^{***}$), family sharing time (${\beta}=.14^*$), and health (${\beta}=.12^*$) were especially important variables affecting their satisfaction.
