This study is conducted to provide empirical evidences which support that the problems of social isolation and loneliness of elderly can be alleviated by intervening the inter-generational relationship of the elderly by means of active ageing policy. The major empirical challenge to address this question is the possibility of selection bias caused by reversed causal relationship. To address this challenge, I constructed comparison group with 'Eligible Non-Participants' (ENP), and used instrumental variable method to estimate the empirical model. My findings indicate that inter-generational relationship, both in the aspects of economical solidarity and associational solidarity, is significantly improved as time use pattern of the elderly becomes more active. The improvement effect is intensively observed for the group of elderly who do not live with their adult children. The important policy implication of these findings is that the improvement of inter-generational relationship can be added as a new benefit of active ageing policy.

The purpose of this study is to compare in the U.S. and Korea regarding adult children's quality of relationship and care provision for their elderly parents. The study sample consist of 320 adult children in the U.S. and 554 adult children in Korea with at least one parent living. The U.S. study sample is drawn from the State of California, and the Korean sample is drawn from Gyeongsangnamdo Province. The study result shows that the U.S adult children score higher than the Korean adult children in the quality of relationship measure for their elderly parents. And Korean adult children score higher than the U.S. adult children in the care provision measure for their elderly parents. It is found that the most significant factor influencing American adult children's care provision is caregiving attitude for elderly parents, while for Korean adult children, it is the quality of the relationship between adult children and elderly parents. This study results can serve as a foundation for understanding the U.S. and Korean differences regarding adult children's support for their elderly parents and for providing a solution to caregiving issues for elderly parents.

본 연구에서는 부모세대의 사회ㆍ경제적 지위에 따라 결정된 거주지에 따라 자녀세대의 학력자본이 차별적으로 재생산되고 있는지를 살펴보았다. 연구결과 고학력으로 대표되는 사회ㆍ경제적 지위가 높은 집단의 거주 비율이 높은 분리된 거주지에서 재생산되는 학력자본은 양적인 면에서나 질적인 면에서 모두 매우 차별적인 것으로 나타나고 있다. 과거에 비해 대학진학률이 많이 높아졌지만 4년제 대학 진학으로 제한해 지역별 학업 성취를 비교해 보면 지역별 차가 뚜렷하게 나타나고 있다. (중략)

The purpose of this study was to examine whether parental beliefs, value of children, and filial obligation were related. The subjects were 748 students(male 323, female 425) who were currently enrolled at university located in Seoul. The instruments used for this study were Filial Obligation Scale(Cho, 2002), Parenting Beliefs Questionnaire, and Value of Children by Arnold et al.(1975, 2001). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, and Pearson's correlations by SPSS PC Program. The results showed that university students generally demonstrated a higher level of individual-oriented beliefs than relation-oriented beliefs on parental beliefs. With regard to parental beliefs, family relation-oriented beliefs was relatively low in comparison with independence/autonomy-oriented beliefs, happiness-oriented beliefs, and cognition/knowledge-oriented beliefs. In addition, emotional value of children was relatively high in comparison with instrumental value of children. Also, male university students possessed a higher level of filial obligation. the level of cohabitation experience with their parents played a significant role in affecting the level of filial obligation. Unsurprisingly, a higher relation-oriented parental beliefs and emotional value of children demonstrated a higher level of filial obligation. There were also positive relationships between emotional value, instrumental value, and filial obligation. Hence, this study suggests that a practical, functional training services and resources for future parents must be ensued.

The purpose of this study is to understand how the perception and attitude in children's education have changed over the 20th century in South Korea by searching the newspaper articles. The modernization in 20th century brought radical changes in every aspect of Korean society including education. As an educational attitude and policies from the government changed, so did the tones reflected in the newspaper articles. To sum up, there were four (4) principal changes found from this study as follows;Firstly, parental involvement and role as an educator became more important in Korean society and huge generation gap arose in attitudes towards children's education and custody. Secondly, the traditional gender-based roles of mothers' with image of love and fathers' with strength disappeared and mothers' responsibility of children's education were more emphasized during 20th century. Meanwhile, today's society is calling for an immediate return of fathers' involvement and commitment to children's education in the household. Thirdly, as the overflow of information and knowledge in 20th society caused an excessive interest in children's education, there were rising demands for establishing proper views and ideas on children's education. Lastly, the responsibilities of children's education which had been laid on household was expanded to public and government, which can be seen from the fact that an educational support from the government was extended to the children of overseas Korean as well as those residing in Korea.

Using panel data (KLIPS) we examine the relation between respondents' occupation and their fathers' occupation. We divide the urban employed into four subgroups according to their occupation: employer, self-employed, white collar worker and blue collar worker. We find that the effects of fathers' occupation on respondents' occupation are mediated by the level of respondents' education. The effects of respondents' initial occupation on their current occupation are also significant. In terms of the extent of mobility, we can rank the occupational groups as follows: employer, upper layer of self-employed, white collar worker, lower layer of self-employed and blue collar. In order to encourage occupational mobility, we should level the opportunity of education among different occupational groups.

This study examines the structure of intergenerational relationship and its effects on old-age security of the Korean society. Of interest is the effects of the middle aged's attitudes on old parents'security on their intergenerational exchange relationship and on their own old-age security as well. This study also attempts to test the applicability of the social exchange perspective to the study of intergenerational support relationship in Korea The social exchange perspective considers intergenerational relationship as an exchange of aids and rewards between generations. However due to strong norm of filial duty and inadequate welfare system, supporting old parents is regarded as younger generation's duty in Korea This study utilizes a survey data conducted by Kim et al.(2000). Major findings can be summarized as follows. First, the middle aged who gives one-sided supports to their parents tends to have the traditional attitude on old parents' security. It implies that intergenerational support relationship in Korea is not consistent with the explanations from the social exchange perspective. This study suggests a 'chained reward system'as an altermative explaining the intergenerational relationship. Second, an absolute majority of the middle aged tend to think that they are responsible for their own old-age security regardless of the pattern of intergenerational support relationship and attitudes on old parents' security. It implies that the middle aged in Korea holds the status of 'marginal men' who supports their parents but can't take the similar supports from their children.

Considering the reality that the baby boom generation which takes up 15% of the Korean population enters the old age, this study aimed to investigate level and factors affecting successful aging of the baby boom generation. The theory this study used is Rowe & Kahn, and the data it used are from 2,577 persons combining respondents of the fifth basic survey and the special survey of Korean Longitudinal Study of Ageing. This study utilized IBM SPSS Statistics ver. 20.0 for analysis, and the main results of this study were as follows. First, successful aging level of the baby boom generation was $6.36{\pm}1.39$(range: 0~9), proving that they consider their aging as successful. However, depending on sub-factors of successful aging, proportion that they viewed themselves as successfully aging were quite different. Second, examination of factors affecting successful aging of the generation found out that pocket money, educational level, and child-parents relationship satisfaction are important. By applying the theory of Rowe & Kahn which can be called the representative model of successful aging, this study examined successful aging and extracted some suggestions for future researches.
