본 연구의 목적은 한국에서 장래에 이루어질 노인주거연구의 주제를 예측할 수 있도록 일본, 미국, 한국의 노인주거연구의 경향의 차이를 파악하고 비교하기 위한 것이다. 본 연구는 세나라에서 1940년대부터 1990년대 현대까지 발표된 노인주거연구에 대한 학술지와 논문을 분석함으로써 이루어졌다. 세 나라에서 전체 772편의 논문을 수집하여 이를 발표된 연도와 주제에 따라 분류하였다. 본 연구는 일본과 미국의 연구 경향의 특징을 별도로 발표한 후속 연구이다. 일본에서는 1950년대에 노인주거에 대한 연구가 시작되어 80년대 후반에 절정을 이루었으며, 그 이후로 서서히 관심이 줄어들고 있는 추세이다. 일본에서의 주요 주제는 노인홈과 노인시설내의 주 생활조사, 3대 동거 주택, 유료노인홈과 노인시설의 소비자 문제등이다. 미국의 경우, 노인주거의 연구는 일본보다 빠른 1940년대에 시작되어 70년대와 80년대에 걸쳐서 다른 때보다 더 많은 연구가 발표되었다. 주요주제는 1970년대부터 80년대에는 노인주거와 노인시설에 집중되어 있었으나 80년대 이후에 노인주거의 연구방법과 노인주택정책방향으로 관심이 바뀌고 있다. 한국에서의 노인주거에 대한 연구는 세나라 중에서 가장 늦은, 1970년대 후반부터 시작되어 80년대 후반 이래로 그 관심이 점점 증가하고 있다. 한국에서 가장 관심이 있는 연구대상의 하나는 일본과 마찬가지로 기혼자녀와 노부모와의 동거주택에 대한 주제이다. 이상 세나라의 연구주제에서의 차이점은, 한국과 일본에서는 모두 노인주거와 연구방법 분야에는 비교적 관심이 적은 반면, 미국에서는 3대동거주택에 대한 관심이 적은 것이다. 일본과 미국 두나라에 비하여 한국에서는 노인주거 연구에 있어서 아직까지 다양한 주제를 발견하기 어려운데 그 이유는 한국에서는 노인주거에 대한 구체적인 개발이 아직까지 이루어지지 않아서 노인주거에 대한 경험도 많지 않기 때문이라고 생각된다. 앞으로 한국에서도 노인주거가 개발된다면 그 후에는 보다 다양한 연구주제가 나타날 것이라고 기대된다. 예를 들면 노인거주시설의 질적인 비교, 특수한 형태의 노인주거에 대한 요구, 노인주거내의 주생활조사나 평가, 노인을 위한 설비의 디자인 등에 관한 연구들을 생각해 볼 수 있다.

Korea, which became an aging society in 2000, has made transition to an aged society more quickly than expected since late 2017 after 17 years. Despite this trend, the awareness towards elderly housing facilities has not yet been raised across in society. The primary reason is that use of elderly housing facilities has not been promoted due to lack of understanding about the construction and management of the facilities. The housing of the elderly should be considered in terms of not only residential space but also the issues of medical care and continuous care. Therefore, the trend of elderly housing is pursuing the Continuing Care Retirement Community. Thus, this study analyzed the policies of existing elderly housing facilities and existing elderly housing through comparison with policies and housing of foreign countries. Based on the results, the the government intends to present characteristics and direction of suitable housing design of senior citizens' housing facilities through maintenance of UNIT, securing convergence through changes in the use of facilities, and realising the cost of operation, and studying social welfare measures to cope with the increasing number of elderly residents.

This study is to suggest a social welfare policy to overcome the exclusion from the three sectors of economic life, income, labor market, housing, etc., which are the most important items of the welfare of the elderly in the life cycle. The results are as follows. First, income security policies should be comprehensively established and implemented. National institutional guarantees such as national pensions, basic pensions, and national basic living security should be sufficient. Second, housing policy must be reasonably improved. Since housing is a problem for the elderly, policies that suit the taste of the elderly should be effectively established and executed. Third, national and social agreement is needed. Geriatric welfare policies basically require social consensus. In conclusion, measures to overcome the economic exclusion of the elderly should be sought comprehensively in the long-term and various fields. There must also be an explicit agreement from the members of the society. a social welfare policy to overcome from economic exclusion should find ways to overcome the elderly's right to life.

In Korea, the population size of the elderly is rapidly increasing, and housing for them is emerging as an important issue. In particular, Aging in Place (AIP) has steadily been presented as a direction of welfare for the elderly. This study empirically examines the effect of the interactions of the elderly with their children on residential mobility for older Koreans. To do so, this study employed random effect logistic regression models with the dataset of the 2008-2020 Korean Longitudinal Study of Aging. The findings are as follows. First, it was found that the interaction with their children increased the probability of residential mobility for older Koreans in both metropolitan areas and non-metropolitan areas. Second, as age increased, the interaction with their children tended to further promote residential mobility for older Koreans, but such effects varied depending on related variables. Third, it was confirmed that the possibility of further promoting residential mobility for older Koreans increased through the interaction effects of the variables associated with the interaction with their children. This study suggests policy implications for the residential mobility of older Koreans, i.e., whether the interactions with their children improve independent residential environments by enhancing housing stability, in terms of AIP.

The purpose of this study is to understand the effects of housing economic and regional characteristics on the ife satisfaction and the self-esteem of the elderly and how their self-esteem mediates the effects of housing economic and regional characteristics on their life satisfaction. The main results of the study are as follows. First, housing economic characteristics such as housing prices, occupancy area per resident, and ratio of utility cost to total living costs had a significant effect on the elderly's life satisfaction and self-esteem, and the elderly's self-esteem mediated the effect of the economic characteristics of housing on the life satisfaction of the elderly. Second, residential area, a regional characteristic of housing, had a significant effect on the life satisfaction and self-esteem of the elderly, and the self-esteem of the elderly mediated the effect of the residential area on the life satisfaction. Thus, because elderly housing welfare policies related to housing economic and regional characteristics affect the elderly's life satisfaction, a psychological welfare, through a mediating effect of the elderly's self-esteem.

This study aims to examine the effect of housing characteristics of older adults on the willingness to continue living in local communities in order to realize the Aging in place of the elderly in Korea. Considering that the health status of the elderly is important for aging in place, both healthy and unhealthy cases were analyzed in the analyses. Housing characteristics include home ownership, housing cost burden, housing convenience, housing satisfaction, and residential environment satisfaction. The study sample is 9,798 elderly people from the 2017 survey on the elderly. Key findings are as follows: First, while 6,704 older adults (68.4%) chose to continue living in the community, 3,094 (31.6%) of the elderly did not choose to live in the local community. Second, the elderly who chose to stay in the local community are likely to have more real estate assets and less burden of housing expenses than the elderly group who did not. Third, the results report that older adults with more real estate assets and lower the housing cost burden are likely to choose sustainable living in the local community. The findings suggest that the majority of the elderly actually preferred Aging in place. This study concludes with practice and policy implications for realizing aging in place considering the elderly's needs.

In recent study, we are referencing the necessity by examining the environment for housing policies for elderly Koreans. In reality, Japan, who is ahead of our country, has already experienced and is currently in progress for the aging society. They have developed a profound housing policy under all circumstances with the change of aging society. There forth, we are in progress of examining the series of helpful characteristics being presented by Japan, and how they have expanded and improved their housing support services. Our country must clearly ensure a resolution for investigating a new direction in housing policy and housing support services by learning through the development process of Japan's housing support services for the aging society. For instance, Japan have provided housing policy in both housing and welfare for senior citizens. Recently, the reason they are well adjusted for housing and welfare linked with special care and supportive living services and being skillfully focused on the maintenance policy is because they have great implications on how to successively organize housing policies for the aged society. Recent studies show preferred living arrangement and housing policy of the elderly for stabilization in the aging society. First, must be aware of the leading factors for housing in later life, organize dwelling patterns for diverse characteristics and give consideration for future life plans. Second, must continuously maintain an accessible environment in all community levels without changing the required services in their livelihood by adjusting to diverse changes for the aged. In addition, must organize flexibility in choice following these housing-support services for the elderly's desire and self reliance which raises profound questions on cultural policy.

Developed countries have developed indicators of quality of life and are using them as indicators of policy decisions, and Korea is also developing and operating indicators of people's quality of life. One of them is a lifestyle-oriented SOC, a policy that aims to improve the quality of life of the people by improving living infrastructure. This study aims to focus on subjective happiness among people's quality of life. The elderly are a relatively marginalized class in the national policy, and this study aims to analyze the effects of the elderly's residential environment on quality of life, housing satisfaction, and happiness. The purpose of this study is to provide useful implications for urban planning and related policy making by examining the structural relationship of whether the individual-environmental fit perceived by the elderly affects housing satisfaction and subjective happiness, and by analyzing the mediating effect between housing satisfaction and subjective happiness. As a result of the study, it was found that convenience, comfort, and public welfare of personal-environment suitability affect housing satisfaction and subjective happiness, and housing satisfaction affects subjective happiness. Also, it was analyzed that housing satisfaction had a mediating effect in the relationship between comfort, public welfare, and subjective feeling of happiness.
