본 연구는 같은 동양문화권에 속하면서도 사회·문화적 배경이 다른 한국과 일본 대학생들을 대상으로 라이프스타일 특성과 여가시간 활용을 비교 분석하므로써 양국대학생들의 소 비문화를 추론하는데 초점을 두고 있다. 새로운 세대로 지칭되는 대학생들은 이미 새로운 수요를 창출하는 세분시장으로서 마케터들의 관심을 모으고 있지만, 국가간 시장을 세분화하고 그에 따른 적절한 마케팅 전략을 구사하는 것이 과연 효과적인가를 탐색해 보는 것이 본 연구의 목표이다. 라이프스타일은 AIO 분석에 근거하여 의생활분야, 구매 및 쇼핑분야, 가치관분야, 정보추구분야, 인터넷 광고분야 등의 다섯 가지 영역으로 구분하고 양국 대학생들을 대상으로 자료를 수집하였다. 각 영역별로 요인분석을 실시하여 모두 23개의 요인이 도출되었고, 양국 대학생 집단은 모두 18개 부문에서 차이를 보였으며 5개 부문에서는 유의적인 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 그러나 여가 및 시간활용에서는 양국 대학생 집단간에 차이를 보이는 항목이 많았으며, 인구 통계적 요인이 국적과 상호작용을 통해 여가활동에 서로 다르게 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과는 사회·문화적 환경이 다른 소비자 집단의 특성을 이해하고 여가활동 유형과 여가시간 활용에 따라 차별화를 가능하게 함으로써 국제적인 마케팅전략수립을 위해 효과적인 시장세분화 기준을 제공하고 소비패턴 분석을 위한 기초 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

Thus, this study saw the single-person household as an organism existing in a complicated environment based on examining the previous researches. This work deigned the research model by applying the human ecological point of view consistently interacting with the environment. This study suggested an hypothesis under the assumption that the resources such as leisure, infrastructure, social activity and work-life balance support system will influence the level of happiness of single-person household

The purpose of this study was to empirically describe the everyday life of middle-aged adults in terms of their time-use activities. From the original '2004 Time dairy' Data, developed by the Korean National Statistical Office (KNOS), 17,684 respondents aged between 35-59 were selected. In order to categorize their activity patterns, work/labour, domestic labour, and spare leisure time were classified according to the action classification system. As a result, four dominant types were found: namely work-leisure, work-oriented, family-oriented, and leisure-oriented activities. Results of multinomial logistic analysis revealed that gender, age, socioeconomic status, job characteristic, and family structure were the major determinants on time-use. Compared with work-leisure, young middle aged women holding a part-time job with less income tended to be involved in a family-centered time use. Dual earners with lower SES status were likely to have work-oriented time schedules. Older men with relatively lower income were more likely to be involved in leisure-oriented activities rather than work-leisure activities. Multitasking behavior was a significant variable in explaining the four different types of time-use. Work-oriented group showed the highest level of time pressure as well as fatigue. Group differences in these measures, however, was not as large as expected.

This study aims to find out ways of improving life satisfaction of rural elderly by investigating their work and leisure activity, two significant axis of the life in later life. For this purpose, researchers and one assistant researcher visited house, senior citizen's center and health center, in order to have interviews with senior citizen above 65, who are currently working in the field. The summary of the research findings are as follows; First, the average size of the farm land which each senior citizen works on is $9,237.92m^2$ and they mostly work for economic reason. During farming season, they work on average 8.62 hour per day. As primary reasons for why farming work is difficult, "insufficient income" was picked. In fact, the average annual income senior citizens earn from farming is about 15.4 million won. 49.1% of sample senior citizens work both on watered farm and farm, and they are engaged in farming 48.82 years on average, showing that most of their lives have been spent on farming. In spite of these difficulties, most senior citizens showed high intention to continue farming work further. Second, senior citizens turn out to spend their leisure time mostly on public leisure activities such as watching TV, hearing radio and gatherings with families, relatives. However, individual activities such as meditation, yoga, drawing and calligraphy turn out to be low because they require foundations to enjoy. Third, senior citizen in rural areas were divided into four groups by farm work and leisure activity: group separated from work and leisure activity(27.09%), group centered to leisure activity(24.42%), group centered to work(23.75%), and group integrated work and leisure activity(23.75%). Fourth, the groups were different depending on demographic characteristics. Namely, male senior citizen, higher educational level, living in elderly couple households, and satisfied with their economic level belonged to the group integrated work and leisure activity. But senior citizen aged above 65 years old and working for their livelihood belonged to the group centered to work, and most of female and senior citizen aged above 80 years old belonged to the group separated from work and leisure activity. Finally, as the result of analysis of differences in life satisfaction according to farm work and leisure activity of senior citizen in rural areas, the group integrated work and leisure activity, and group centered to leisure activity were higher in life satisfaction than the group separated from work and leisure activity, and group centered to work. The above result indicates that life satisfaction of senior citizen depends upon leisure activity rather than work.
