무선인터넷 서비스는 이동통신 사업자들에게 강력한 추가수익원으로 떠오르고 있으며, 활성화를 위하여 장기적이고 효율적인 정책대안 수립이 절실한 시점이다. 본 연구에서는 무선인터넷 산업의 현실을 올바로 파악하고자 하는 노력의 일환으로 무선인터넷 사용자들에 대하여 설문조사를 수행하였으며, 그 결과를 무선인터넷 이용환경, 이용실태, 평가 등 세 부분으로 나누어 서술하였다. 무선인터넷은 엔터테인먼트용 콘텐츠의 이용도가 높아 여가생활에 도움을 주고 있지만, 실생활에는 아직 큰 도움이 되지 못한다는 평가를 얻었다. 그리고 통신요금에 대한 불만이 가장 높은 것으로 나타나, 무선인터넷 서비스 확산에 큰 장애요인으로 떠올랐다. 그리고 정액제에 대한 높은 선호를 확인함으로써 통신요금 체계도 무선인터넷 확산에 걸림돌이 되고 있는 것으로 판단하였다. 한편 본 조사에서는 전자우편의 이용횟수, 무선인터넷 및 음성통화의 하루평균 이용시간, 통신요금 및 정보이용료 지출액 등에서 여성의 활용도가 활발한 것으로 나타나 이동통신 서비스 확산에서 여성의 역할이 부각되었다. 결론적으로 우리나라는 무선인터넷 서비스 확산을 위한 하드웨어적인 준비는 거의 완료되었으나 요금수준 및 체계, 통신품질, 콘텐츠 등 소프트웨어 측면에서의 준비는 다소 미비한 것으로 판단되며, 해당 분야에 대한 집중적인 연구와 투자가 필요한 시점으로 생각된다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate types of neighborhood environments and to verify whether the types of neighborhood environments are directly related to life satisfaction of older adults. To achieve this goal, I used'2014 National Survey on Older Koreans' data which surveyed the older adults aged 65 and over living in the community and a total of 10,281 respondents were analyzed. To determine the types of neighborhood environment, the time taken by walking from community organizations or places such as grocery stores, medical centers, administrative agencies, welfare centers, public transportation was used as an neighborhood environment indicators. As a results, there were six types of neighborhood environment: a leisure-welfare walk-limited type(20.3%), a leisure-welfare long-distance type(15.5%), a balanced proximity type(7.8%), a store-traffic type(35.8%), a traffic proximity type(10.1%), and a marginalized area type(11.3%). Compared to the balanced proximity type, older adults living in a store-traffic type and a marginalized area type were more likely to have negative life satisfaction. older adults who have higher life satisfaction were more likely to be female, more educated, get higher household income, and have a spouses or partner. Moreover, the better the health conditions, the higher the frequency of contact with children, siblings, friends and neighbors, the higher the satisfaction of life. Finding from the study highlight the importance of neighborhood environment in late life and provide implications for building age-friendly community.

This study aimed to explore the influence of family characteristics on the work-life balance of early adolescents. A series of data analyses was conducted on adolescents' use of time in daily life on the basis of 2018 Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey (KCYPS 2018). We found that the work-life balance of youth is related to their parents' health status, presence of older siblings, household income, parenting attitude, parent-child communication time, and mother's occupation. The work-life balance of the fifth graders is more likely to be influenced by family characteristics compared with that of the eighth graders. In particular, the fifth graders' sleep deprivation is affected by the mother's occupation, but there is no significant effect on the eighth graders' sleep deprivation. An important factor in skipping breakfast is household income, with adolescents from low-income families tending to skip breakfast more than five days a week. In addition, parents' health status and parenting attitude are significantly related to skipping of breakfast in early adolescents. Household income is related to the after-school private tutoring hours of both the fifth and eighth graders; however, parenting attitude and mother's occupation are also significant influencing factors of the fifth graders' after-school study. Mother's occupation is related to excessive cell phone use; specifically, the fifth graders whose mothers work white-collar jobs, sales and services or manufacturing are more likely to play with cell phones more than three hours a day than those whose mothers are full-time housewives. These results suggest that the work-life balance policies targeted at the family characteristics of adolescents can improve family environments in a manner that enhances adolescents' life balance, thus supporting the well-being of early adolescents and their families.
