이 연구는 고령화 사회의 도래에 따른 위기의 상황에서 농촌노인들의 삶의 질의 측면에서 가족 및 사회적 관계는 어떠하며, 심각한 사회문제로 대두되고 있는 농촌노인들의 복지정책의 문제점을 살펴보고자 한다. 농촌노인의 삶의 질을 살펴보기 위하여, 농촌 노인의 가족구성을 살펴본 결과 농촌노인들은 노부부만 거주하는 비율이 가장 높고(39.0%), 결혼한 아들 가족과 함께 사는 경우(27.3%), 독거(21.2%), 미혼자녀와 함께 사는(7.9%) 순으로 높은 비율을 보이고 있다. 사회적 관계는 따로 사는 자녀와의 관계가 가장 높으며(97.1%), 그 다음으로는 친한 친구나 이웃이 있고(94.8%), 자주 왕래하는 비동거 자녀는 평균 2.4명, 친척은 약 3명, 친구나 이웃은 5.5명으로 총 약 10여명의 가까운 사람들과 교류하여 사회적 관계가 비교적 높은 편으로 나타나고 있다(농림부, 2002). 농촌노인의 삶의 질은 가족간의 관계가 아주 중요한 지원 체계로서 자녀와 동거하는 농촌노인들은 단독가구 노인에 비해 높은 생활만족도, 높은 행복감, 낮은 고독감을 보이는 것으로 나타나고 있고(한경혜, 2003), 노인의 사회적 지원 망의 크기가 크고 다양할수록 노인의 생활 만족도나 심리적 복지감에 긍정적인 영향을 미친다고 한다.

Using the 2006 Korean Longitudinal Study of Ageing, this paper investigates the effect of sibling size on children's educational attainment. OLS estimation results show a negative relationship between the number of children and their educational attainment, which confirms the trade-off between child quantity and quality. However, estimation results using the first child's sex as an instrument for sibling size, show no evidence of a quantity-quality trade-off. Our findings suggest that the adverse effect of a larger sibling size on per-child investment in education can be mitigated by other factors such as peer effect.

월리스의 생산력-소득수준 결정모형에서 자녀에 대한 수요가 자녀의 수와 자녀교육의 질에 대하여 비동차함수 형태를 취할때 자녀수요에 미치는 현존가격의 변화에 따른 소득효과 및 대체효과를 대수적으로 유도하고 이 의미를 기하학적으로 확인해 보는데 본 글의 의의가 있다. 대수적으로 자녀수요(C)를 단순히 자녀의 수(N)와 자녀 교육(Q)의 곱으로 C=NQ와 같이 나타낸 월리스의 모형에서 이를 C=f(N,Q)와 같이 일반적인 함수 형태를 취할때에 소비자 이론의 기본적인 작용 극대화를 통하여 자녀수요를 도출하였다. 기하학적으로는 대수적으로 도출된 자녀수요에 대한 가치효과들을 자녀의 수와 자녀 교육의 질에 대한 상대적 현존 가치를 고려하여 자녀수요의 변화, 자녀수 및 자녀 교육의 질 사이에 관계를 도시하였다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of the actor and partner effects of the parental sex-role attitude on the parent-child relationship by using the Actor-Partner Interdependence Model (APIM). Specifically, this study focused on the examination of the actor and partner effects of the parental sex-role attitude in married couples with immigrant women who have children under 5 years old. For the analyses, a total of 5,531 couples who participated in the National Survey on Multi-cultural Families were included and the major findings are as follows. First, the couple's sex-role attitude had a statistically significant actor effect on the parent-child relationship. Parents who were more conscious of gender equality displayed a better parent-child relationship and this effect was greater in the case of the father's attitude than the mother's. Second, the father's sex-role attitude had a statistically significant partner effect on the mother-child relationship, whereas the mother's attitude did not. Third, the couple's actor effects were greater than their partner effects and this means that the personal sex-role attitude has a greater impact on the parent-child relationship than the partners' attitude. The implication and limitations derived from these empirical-scientific database results and related studies in educational program of gender equality attitude for multi-cultural families.

The purpose of this study is to examine the mediation effects of relationships of parent-child and between-peers based on the effects of economic difficulty on quality of life of elementary school students. Data was obtained from students (N= 493) at seven elementary schools in Choongbuk Province and analyzed with SPSS 12.0 and Structural Equation Modeling with AMOS 5.0. The major findings are as follows: economic difficulty gives a direct effect on elementary students' quality of life and is mediated with parent-child and between-peers relationships. Also, economic difficulty influences children's quality of life when a parent-child relationship is combined with a between-peers relationship. On the basis of these results, this study suggests that welfare centers and elementary schools have to teach students to have desirable sense of value. Also, schools need to provide education programs for parents to improve parent-child relationship and various activities for students to develop between-peers relationship.

The purpose of this study was to identify latent profiles of multicultural adolescents' psychological outcomes (school participation, self-esteem, and difficulty related to multicultural identity) depending on their perception of the parent-child relationship. A total of 5,540 samples from the Multicultural Adolescents Panel Study (MAPS) conducted by the National Youth Policy Institute in 2018 were analyzed by using Latent Profile Analysis and one-way ANOVA. The best-fitting model identified five groups according to their perception of the parent-child relationship: (1) father low-mother average (6.5%), (2) father average-mother low (2%), (3) father low-mother low (18.6%), (4) father average-mother average (31.2%), and (5) father high-mother high (41.7%). According to the results of one-way ANOVA, the father high-mother high (41.7%) group of adolescents showed more school participants and higher self-esteem and multicultural identity than the other profiled groups. The father average-mother average (31.2%) group of adolescents also scored higher than the other three groups (father low-mother average (6.5%), father average-mother low (2%), and father low-mother low (18.6%) of adolescents). The results of this study imply that improving multicultural adolescents' perception of their parent-child relationships would be important in improving psychological outcomes.
