This research focused on the consciousness and behavior of married-teachers to support their aged-parents. The subject of this study was 239 married-teachers, in the Gyeongnam area, Korea, living with at least one of their old-parents. Statistical analysis was carried out using SPSS/WIN programs including frequencies, t-test, one-way ANOVA, correlation analysis and stepwise regression. The major findings in this study are as follows; 1) Degree of consciousness in supporting married-teachers' aged parents was 3.98 on a scale of 0-5.0. The significant variables affecting the results were sex, living-distance, and familism. 2) Degree of behavior in supporting married-teachers' aged parents was 3.07 on a scale of 0-4.0. The significant variables affecting the results were number of child, living-distance, economic level of aged parents, and self-esteem. 3) There was a close relationship between the consciousness and behavior of married-teachers to support their aged-parents. 4) Stepwise regression analysis showed that the most effective variable of the married-teachers' behavior for supporting aged-parents was supporting consciousness.

여성의 고학력화와 기혼여성의 경제활동 참여율이 날로 증가되는 현실에서 기혼여성의 건강관리 대책 마련을 위한 기초 자료로 활용하고자, 건강증진생활양식의 핵심 요소인 식생활과 신체활동 상태를 평가하고, 기혼여성의 건강증진생활 양식에 영향을 미치는 요인들 간의 상호관계와 각 요인들의 영향력을 파악하여 취업 여부별로 건강증진생활양식 예측모형 구축을 시도하였다. 이를 위해 대졸 이상의 기혼여성을 대상으로 인구 사회학적 특성과, 가정과 사회에서 맡고 있는 역할의 수, 각 역할에 대한 중요성 인식도 및 부담도, 가족 및 기타 가사관리자의 조력, 스트레스ㆍ우울ㆍ피로와 같은 심리적ㆍ신체적 증상과, 자아효능감, 그리고 건강증진생활양식에 대한 자료를 수집하였다.(중략)

본 논문은 기혼여성의 경제활동 참가와 경제활동 참가 이후의 노동시간 공급을 결정짓는 요인을 분석하고, 그러한 노동공급행태의 시기적 변화를 살펴보았다. 이에 의하면, 학력이 높을수록 오히려 경제활동에 참가할 확률이 떨어지며, 6세 미만 자녀가 없을수록, 타소득수준이 낮을수록 경제활동 참가확률이 높게 나타난다. 미국의 경우 임금상승이 기혼여성 노동공급증가의 주요한 원인이라는 결론이 실질적으로 모든 연구에서 반복되어 왔으나 한국의 경우 실질임금수준은 크게 상승하지 않았음에도 불구하고 기혼여성의 노동공급이 이보다 빠른 속도로 증가했다. 그러나 1992년 분석결과에서 기혼여성의 취업구조가 다소 변화하고 있음을 확인할 수 있다. 무엇보다 시장임금수준이 높을 것으로 기대되는 여성일수록 경제활동 참가확률이 높아지는 경향이 뚜렷하게 나타난다는 사실이 1985년과 비교해 주요한 특징을 이룬다. 그러한 변화는 학력이 경제활동에 미치는 음의 효과가 여전하고 노동시간으로 본 노동공급이 시장임금의 변화에 영향을 받지 않는 것으로 나타난 점에서 상당히 완만하게 진행되고 있음을 알 수 있다.

이 연구는 여성의 삶의 질에 '일'과 '가족'이 갖는 의미가 무엇인지를 알아보기 위해서, 여성의 '신체적${\cdot}$정신적 건강'에 미치는 '일'과 '가족'의 효과를 분석하고 있다. 이 연구는 생산직 및 사무직에 종사하는 기혼 여성 902명에 대한 설문지 면접조사결과를 회귀분석방법으로 분석하였다. 분석결과, 기혼여성노동자의 신체적 건강과 정신건강에 미치는 직업특성${\cdot}$가족특성의 영향력에 변별성이 발견되었다. 가족특성이 기혼여성노동자의 정신건강에만 유의미한 영향을 미친 반면, 직업특성은 이들의 신체적 건강${\cdot}$정신건강 모두에 유의미한 영향을 미침으로써 여성들에게 직업이 갖는 의미가 재해석되어야 함을 암시하였다. 분석결과가 함의하는 바는 다음과 같다. 첫째, '업무스트레스'의 효과처럼 동일한 변수가 성별로 상이한 효과를 미친다는 사실에서 '일'에 대한 성별화된 사회규범이 해체되어야 한다. 둘째, 여성의 연령 증가, 자녀수 증가에 따라 정신건강이 좋아진다는 결과에서 여성에게 '가족'과 '일'의 갈등적 측면 못지않게 지원적 측면이 강화되고 있다. 셋째, 기혼여성노동자의 건강에 가장 영향력 있는 변수는 '가정형편' 변수로서, 건강의 계층화 현상에 주목할 필요가 있으며 저소득층에 대한 각별한 건강복지정책이 요구된다는 점이다.

This study aims to suggest the direction for improving the mental health of married women by analyzing the relationship between married women's life stress, life satisfaction, self-elasticity, and coping stances. For this study, 200 married women in their 30s~60s living in Seoul, Incheon, and Gyeonggi-do were surveyed on January 2~15, 2020, and the results were analyzed using multiple regression and regression analysis. As a result of the study, it was found that the main causes of life stress felt by married women were economic problems, relationships with their children, and conflict between mother in law and daughter in law. By analyzing the relationship with life satisfaction, it turned out that life stress had a relationship with life satisfaction, which affected the decline in their life satisfaction. In addition, it was verified that the self-elasticity and coping stances had a partial mediating effect in the relationship between the life stress and life satisfaction of married women. Accordingly, improving self-elasticity and coping stances will likely reduce the life stress of married women and boost their life satisfaction.

A questionnaire was used as a tool for a better Factor Analysis and Frequency Analysis research. There were 6 essential factors which unmarried people take into consideration when purchasing a washer: economical efficiency, measure of capacity, design, type, brand and advertising, function.

In this work, we investigated the perceptions of marriage among married people through in-depth interviews with twenty-two married men and women. The results of our analysis on the in-depth interviews are as follows. 1. Married men and women are well aware of the fact that. in a marriage life, one must sacrifice something in order to get anything. That is, even though they have yearning for their lost days of single life and they miss those days, on the other hand, they think that, through marriage, they feel more stable with a sense of belonging to the family. and they are no longer feeling lonely. 2. Married people consider that marriage is something you really have to experience yourself before one knows what it is like to be married. That is, they consider that, while, being single is just like tasting only a little bit of the flavor of life, marriage is like tasting the true meaning of life. The true meanings of life that married people are trying to find are "the strength they get from their family and children", "the journey of finding one's true self through overcoming hardships of life", "the joy and comfort of living together as a family", and finally "the broader life experience and higher quality of life".

Based on social capital theory, this study intends to understand accessed and mobilized social capital of married women with young children and the difference between two types of social capital in terms of their employment status. Factors related to accessed and mobilized social capital are also investigated. The subjects are 571 married women (284 employed and 287 unemployed) who have children younger than 5 years old. Their networks are revealed to show different composition and resource distribution according to the respective employment status. No significant difference is found in accessing social capital depending on the employment status. However, working women are capable of mobilizing more social capital for economic resources and child-care assistance than non-working women. The employment status is significant only in mobilizing social capital related to child-caring assistance. The effects of variables related to social networks of married women differ according to the types of resources sought for. The choices of married women on the employment status and child-rearing are observed in the findings of the ability to mobilize social capital for child-care assistance. The importance of kin ties and various social services for building social capital are discussed.

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.
