  • 본 연구에서는 서울복지패널자료를 이용하여, 서울시 가구를 대상으로 강남지역과 비강남 지역 간 소득 및 재산격차를 살펴보고, 옥사카 요인분해를 통해 소득 및 재산격차와 관련된 요인을 분석하였다. 분석결과, 강남지역의 월평균 가구소득은 400만원으로, 비강남지역의 가구소득 323만원에 비해, 77만원 정도 높은 것으로 나타났다. 소득격차 중에서, 특성효과가 대부분을 차지하여, 고소득과 관련된 인적자본, 노동시장 특성의 지역간 상이한 분포가 소득격차의 주된 요인으로 작용함을 밝혔다. 한편, 강남지역과 비강남 지역간 순자산격차는 소득격차에 비해 더 심각한 것으로 나타났다. 강남지역 가구의 평균 순자산은 약 4억6천만원으로, 비강남지역의 2억8천만원보다, 약 1억3천만원 정도 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 소득격차와는 달리, 계수효과가 순자산 격차의 대부분을 차지하여, 자산의 세대간 이전 등 인적자본 이외의 다른 요인에 의해서 자산격차가 발생할 가능성을 시사하고 있다.

  • The purpose of this study was to analyze the environment of poverty children as reported by the children on a questionnaire. The conception of the environment was divided into the physical environment and the sociopsychological environment. The dimensions of the physical environment included household, cultural, and play conditions. The sociopsychological environment included structural (family values, family relationships, and the reinforcement system) and process variables(affect, care, and communication). For the purpose of this survey was administered to 122 children living in a poverty area and 102 children living in a middle-high income area. Statistics used for data analysis were frequency, distribution, percentile, mean and one-way ANOVA. Major findings showed that (1) The physical environment as reported by the poverty children was meager compared with that of children in the middle-high income area: the households were more overcrowded, and cultural conditions, play materials, and space was more limited. (2) The Structural conditions of the sociopsychological environment as perceived by poverty children were more material and physical than that of children in the middle-high income area: family values were oriented more toward materialism: family relationships were more negative and distant: and the reinforcement system was based more on material reward and physical punishment. (3) Process variables were perceived by poverty children as more laissez-faire and rigid; the parents neglected their children and communicated unilaterally more than the middle-high income parents. (4) Poverty children's perception of the causes of poverty and wealth were perceived as personal and social factors.

  • The cost of the construction and management of new apartment buildings was evaluated using a monetary analysis and an emergy concept to provide a new perspective regarding the housing policy of Korea. The systems of analyses were typical apartment buildings with an area of $76.03m^2$ per household in Korea built on the same size of land area. Three apartment buildings with different stories were evaluated and compared; 5-story, 15-story, and 20-story apartment buildings. The durable years of those apartments were assumed to be 40 years. The total cost of the construction and management of an apartment building was divided into three categories of construction, land purchase, and management. A 20-story apartment showed the highest cost and a 15-story apartment the lowest in the monetary cost analysis. In contrast, the emergy evaluation revealed a different pattern in the cost of construction and management, the cost increasing from a 5-story apartment to a 20-story one. This means that the higher the apartment constructed, the greater the cost in terms of real wealth. This result suggests that new evaluation methodologies like the emergy analysis should be used together with the monetary analysis to provide better insights on the national housing policy.

  • Objectives: Equity in financial protection against healthcare expenditures is one the primary functions of health systems worldwide. This study aimed to quantify socioeconomic inequality in facing catastrophic healthcare expenditures (CHE) and to identify the main factors contributing to socioeconomic inequality in CHE in Iran. Methods: A total of 37 860 households were drawn from the Households Income and Expenditure Survey, conducted by the Statistical Center of Iran in 2017. The prevalence of CHE was measured using a cut-off of spending at least 40% of the capacity to pay on healthcare services. The concentration curve and concentration index (C) were used to illustrate and measure the extent of socioeconomic inequality in CHE among Iranian households. The C was decomposed to identify the main factors explaining the observed socioeconomic inequality in CHE in Iran. Results: The prevalence of CHE among Iranian households in 2017 was 5.26% (95% confidence interval [CI], 5.04 to 5.49). The value of C was -0.17 (95% CI, -0.19 to -0.13), suggesting that CHE was mainly concentrated among socioeconomically disadvantaged households in Iran. The decomposition analysis highlighted the household wealth index as explaining 71.7% of the concentration of CHE among the poor in Iran. Conclusions: This study revealed that CHE is disproportionately concentrated among poor households in Iran. Health policies to reduce socioeconomic inequality in facing CHE in Iran should focus on socioeconomically disadvantaged households.

  • Ornaments are accessories for the decoration of the body or dress. They aren't unavoidably required one, but serve to make one's dress perfect as decorative industrial art objects. In Morocco, ornaments were initially used as a sign of social position or the class or an incantatory symbol. In effect, they were originally employed to adjust one's dress, not just for decoration, and they were of use for household economy. Gold, silver and handcraft available for exchange were a means of increasing one's property and an indication of social standing and wealth. In particular, the dress and jewelry of a bride was a measure of her family's wealth, regarded as a symbol of her chastity and value. The ornaments symbolically back up people's faith in supernatural power, and their real value is based on implicit form or way of decoration, not the external shape. Specifically, there is a tendency to use the form of animal as a protector, not one to frighten people. In the artistic tradition of Morocco, fish pattern stands for water and rain, and eagle and bird are considered to be related to fate. Scorpion and lizard are depicted as an inquirer of sun, and snake is a symbol of abundance and sexual instinct, being viewed to have an ability to cure disease. Turtle pattern is a symbol of saint because it protects one from the evil. The ornaments are made of gold, silver, amber, clam, garnet, glass, nielle, enamel, glaze, coral or tree, and symbolic patterns are used, including hand(a symbol of five numerals), turtle, lizard, scorpion, eye, triangle, bird and eggs. They are very big and diverse, being categorized into ornaments for the head or the chest, neckless, fibula, earring, bracelet and ring. For Moroccans, make-up is a sort of instinctive behavior to meet aesthetic and sexual desire. They also wear make-up for practical purpose of protection, intentionally inflict a wound on the skin for ceremonial or religious purpose, paint the skin with pigment, or have the part of the body tattooed for incantatory purpose. All this actions are regarded as make-up. The raw material of cosmetics is aker, a vegetable dye. They get the lips or cheeks turn red and paint eyebrows with yellow saffran powder to have a bad devil lose its strength. Tattooing is mainly done by women and viewed as a sign of their value or social organization they belong to. Sometimes that is used to represent a woman's being old enough to marry or getting married already or the frequency of marriage. Besides, tattoo is believed to prevent or remedy loose bowels or cough, depending on its location or pattern, and they often change tattoo according to the change of beauty art.

  • Objectives: As in many low-income and middle-income countries, out-of-pocket (OOP) payments by patients or their families are a key healthcare financing mechanism in Bangladesh that leads to economic burdens for households. The objective of this study was to identify whether and to what extent socioeconomic, demographic, and behavioral factors of the population had an impact on OOP expenditures in Bangladesh. Methods: A total of 12 400 patients who had paid to receive any type of healthcare services within the previous 30 days were analyzed from the Bangladesh Household Income and Expenditure Survey data, 2010. We employed regression analysis for identify factors influencing OOP health expenditures using the ordinary least square method. Results: The mean total OOP healthcare expenditures was US dollar (USD) 27.66; while, the cost of medicines (USD 16.98) was the highest cost driver (61% of total OOP healthcare expenditure). In addition, this study identified age, sex, marital status, place of residence, and family wealth as significant factors associated with higher OOP healthcare expenditures. In contrary, unemployment and not receiving financial social benefits were inversely associated with OOP expenditures. Conclusions: The findings of this study can help decision-makers by clarifying the determinants of OOP, discussing the mechanisms driving these determinants, and there by underscoring the need to develop policy options for building stronger financial protection mechanisms. The government should consider devoting more resources to providing free or subsidized care. In parallel with government action, the development of other prudential and sustainable risk-pooling mechanisms may help attract enthusiastic subscribers to community-based health insurance schemes.

  • Suicide is a major public health issue that causes over 800,000 deaths each year globally. Korea ranks high in suicide rates, in which around 24.3 per 100,000 individuals are reported to have died by intentional self-harm in 2017 according to Statistics Korea. The aim of this study was to examine the current status and trend of suicide ideation and attempt using data from the following five sources: Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination (KNHANES, '07-13, '15-17), Korean Community Health Survey (KCHS, '08-09, '13, '17), Korean Wealth Panel Study (KOWEPS, '12-17), Korea Health Panel Survey (KHP, '10-13), and Statistics Korea (1983-2017). Suicide ideation and attempts were also further examined based on equalized household income levels. Data published by Statistics Korea were used to show the updated suicide rate and number of deaths by intentional self-harm. The rate of suicide ideation at the recent year was 4.73% (KNHANES, '17), 6.96% (KCHS, '17), 1.63% (KOWEPS, '17), and 5.39% (KHP, '13). That of suicide attempts as recent year was 0.71% (KNHANES, '17), 0.32% (KCHS, '17), and 0.09% (KOWEPS, '17). Annual percentage change of suicidal ideation was -15.4% (KNHANES, '07-17), -2.5% (KCHS, '08-17), -8.6% (KOWEPS, '12-17), and -10.9% (KHP, '10-13). Annual percentage change of suicide attempts was -4.0% (KNHANES, '07-17), -4.4% (KCHS, '08-17), and -14.9% (KOWEPS, '12-17). Individuals with lower income levels were more likely to experience suicide ideation and attempts. Considering that Korea still shows a high suicide rate despite the continuously decreasing trend of suicide ideation and attempt, continuous observation and appropriate policy implementation regarding suicide related problems are necessary.

  • Objectives: Understanding the factors influencing mothers' decision to breastfeed their infants is essential to formulate effective breastfeeding interventions. This study explored the determinants of optimal breastfeeding indicators in Indonesia. Methods: We used the 2017 Indonesia Demographic and Health Survey to analyze factors associated with early initiation of breastfeeding, exclusive breastfeeding (EBF), and continued breastfeeding at 1 year (CBF-1) and 2 years (CBF-2). Multivariate logistic regression models were used to examine bio-demographic, socio-cultural, and behavioral characteristics associated with breastfeeding after considering the survey design effect. Results: The risk of delayed breastfeeding initiation was higher among infants who were born smaller, first-born children, were delivered via cesarean delivery, and did not have immediate skin-to-skin contact (p<0.01). Infant's age, birth pattern, household wealth index, and the mother's occupation and smoking status were predictors of EBF (p<0.05). CBF-1 was less common among first-time mothers and those working in the non-agricultural sector, mothers from wealthier families, and mothers who had cesarean deliveries (p<0.01). Infant's age was negatively associated with CBF-2 (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 0.85; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.74 to 0.99). Mothers attending college were less likely to practice CBF-2 than those with no education or primary education (aOR, 0.45; 95% CI, 0.26 to 0.77). The absence of postnatal visits was a risk factor for CBF-1 and CBF-2 (p<0.05). Conclusions: Breastfeeding interventions in Indonesia should pay particular attention to at-risk groups such as women from wealthier families, working outside the agricultural sector, and with a higher education level. Nutrition-sensitive programs (e.g., postnatal care and smoking cessation) should also be encouraged.

주택소유자(住宅所有者)에 대한 조세감면(租稅減免)의 경제적(經濟的) 효과(效果) : 기존연구(旣存硏究)의 개관(槪觀) 및 정책시사점(政策示唆點) (The Economic Effects of Tax Incentives for Housing Owners: An Overview and Policy Implications)

  • 주택소유자(住宅所有者)는 자가주택(自家住宅) 귀속임료(歸屬賃料)에 대한 소득세비과세(所得稅非課稅), 1세대(世帶) 1주택(住宅)에 대한 양도소득세비과세(讓渡所得稅非課稅) 및 주택상속(住宅相續)에 대한 상속세공제(相續稅控除) 등 여러가지 조세감면혜택(租稅減免惠澤)을 누리고 있다. 본고(本稿)에서는 기존의 연구결과를 중심으로 이러한 조세감면혜택의 경제적(經濟的) 효과(效果)를 살펴보았다. 이에 의하면 주택소유자(住宅所有者)에 대한 조세감면(租稅減免)은 조세부담(租稅負擔)의 수평적(水平的) 수직적(垂直的) 형평(衡平)에 어긋날 뿐 아니라 주택시장(住宅市場) 및 국민경제(國民經濟)에 미치는 여러가지 왜곡효과(歪曲效果)를 통해 자원배분(資源配分)의 효율성(效率性)을 저해하고 역진적인 소득재분배(所得再分配)를 유발한다고 할 수 있다. 특히 자본시장(資本市場)이 불완전(不完全)한 경우 주택조세감면(住宅租稅減免)은 부유층에 대해 필요 이상의 주택(住宅)을 소유토록하는 한편 유동성이 부족한 저소득층(低所得層) 및 젊은층의 주택구입(住宅購入)을 더욱 어렵게 함으로써 주택소유(住宅所有)의 계층간 불균형을 심화시키고 소득분배(所得分配)를 더욱 악화시키는 결과를 초래한다고 할 수 있다. 따라서 주택소유자(住宅所有者)와 무주택자간(無住宅者間) 조세(租稅)의 중립성을 회복하는 것이 중요하며 이를 위해서는 첫째로 무주택자(無住宅者)의 임대료지출(賃貸料支出)에 대해 소득공제(所得控除)를 실시하며, 둘째로 1세대(世帶) 1가구(家口)에 대해서도 양도소득세(讓渡所得稅)를 과세하며, 셋째로 상속과세(相續課稅)에 있어 주택공제(住宅控除)를 폐지하는 것이 바람직하다고 생각된다. 우리나라와 같이 자본시장(資本市場)이 불완전한 경우 주택소유촉진정책(住宅所有促進政策)은 효율적(效率的)인 장기주택금융제도(長期住宅金融制度)의 확립을 통해 실시되어야 하며 정부(政府)의 재정지원(財政支援)은 주거비부담능력(住居費負擔能力)이 최소한의 수준에 미달하는 영세민계층(零細民階層)에 집중(集中)되어야 할 것이다.

  • 본고(本稿)의 목적(目的)은 소비함수(消費函數)의 추정(推定)을 통하여 사업소득세(事業所得稅) 과소보고규모(過小報告規模)를 추계하는 데 있다. 이를 위해 본고(本稿)는 "도시가계조사(都市家計調査)" 통계를 이용하여 1986~89년간 연도별 소비함수(消費函數)를 추정한 후 사업소득(事業所得) 및 사업소득세(事業所得稅)의 과소보고의 정도를 추계하였다. 이 결과 사업소득의 과소보고율(過小報告率)은 평균소득수준에 8~12%, 그 상한이 11~25%에 이르는 것으로 추계되었고, 사업소득세의 과소보고율(過小報告率)은 보고된 소득의 2~14% 수준에, 그리고 납부세액(納付稅額)의 13~39%에 이르는 것으로 추정되었다. 이러한 사업소득세 과소보고의 문제를 해결하기 위해서는 제도적(制度的) 과소보고(過小報告) 유인(誘因)이 상존하는 현행 사업소득 과세제도가 장기적으로 납세자의 신고로써 과세가 결정되는 신고제도(申告制度)로 이행되어야 할 것이다. 그리고 소비함수(消費函數)를 추정하는 과정에서 부수적으로 두가지 실증적(實證的) 분석결과(分析結果)를 얻었다. 하나는 사업소득이 낮은 계층에서 오히려 과대보고(過大報告)의 가능성이 있다는 것이고, 다른 하나는 가계소비(家計消費)에서 주택보유에 따른 부(富)의 효과(效果)가 존재하였다는 것이다.
