이 연구는 우리 사회에서 중년층의 노부모 부양관이 세대간 지원관계와 자신의 노후 부양관에 미치는 영향을 분석하고 있다 이를 통해 세대관계 연구에서 흔히 사용되는 교환이론적 접근을 우리 사회에 적용하는 것이 타당한가를 검증한다. 이 연구는 전국의 중년층을 대상으로 수집한 김두섭 외(2000) 의 자료를 활용하였다. 주요 분석결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 노부모에게 지원을 제공하고 있거나 상호적 관계에 있는 중년층에 서 전통적 노부모 부양관이 강하게 나타난다. 이는 교환이론의 설명에 바탕을 둔 기존 연구들의 설명과는 일치하지 않는 결과이며, 우리 사회의 세대관계 분석에서 효규범을 고려하여야 함을 의미한다. 이 연구에서는 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 노부모 부양이 단일세대에 한정되어지는 교환적 관계의 설명이 아니라, 효규범의 영향력에 의해서 자녀의 지원이 세대를 넘어 이어지는 연결적 보상체계라는 새로운 설명모형을 제시하였다. 둘째, 중년층 자신의 노후 부양관에 환한 분석에서는 세대관계 유형이나 자신의 노부모 부양관과 무관하게 절대 다수의 중년층이 자신의 노후책임이 자신에게 있다고 인식하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 우리사회 중년층이 자신은 노부모 부양의 경험이 있고, 전통적인 노부모 부양관을 가지고 있다고 하더라도 자신의 노후에는 자녀의 부양을 기대하지 못하는 중간자적 위치에 있음을 시사한다. 이 연구는 우리 사회의 세대관계를 설명하기 위하여 교환이론의 설명과는 다른 대안적 설명틀을 제시하면서, 중년층의 현실을 실증적으로 보여주었다는 데 의의가 있다

Objective: This study examined the role of siblings with respect to living arrangements between married children and their parents. Previous studies have rarely considered the possibility that family context such as siblings may be associated with intergenerational residential proximity. Method: Using data from first wave of the Korean Longitudinal Study of Ageing (2006), I investigated if, among married children, their sibling characteristics may be associated with the probability of their coresiding with the parent(s), living nearby (within a 30-minute distance from parent(s) by public transportation), or living further away. Specifically, the total numbers of sisters and brothers, the numbers of siblings coresiding with the parent(s) and living nearby, their relative position in the sibling network (first-born son, later-born son, first-born daughter, later-born daughter), and sibship existence and gender configurations (only child, son with brother(s) only, son with sister(s) only, son with both brother(s) and sister(s), daughter with brother(s) only, daughter with sister(s) only, daughter with both brother(s) and sister(s)) were evaluated in the study. For data analysis, multinomial logit models with robust standard errors were estimated using the Stata mlogit procedure. Results: Results suggest that the probability of a married child living together with the parent(s), relative to living close by, was significantly higher the more sisters he or she has. Being a son, especially first-born son, was associated with a higher probability of intergenerational coresidence compared to near residence, respectively. Also, the numbers of siblings coresiding with the parent(s) and living in close proximity were linked to a higher risk of intergenerational coresidence and near residence. Supplementary analyses revealed that the last finding was held over and above the total number of siblings, their relative position in the sibling network, as well as sibling existence and gender configurations. Conclusion: Overall, the study findings indicate that sibling characteristics have significant impacts on intergenerational living arrangement. The influence of traditional patrilineal norm of intergenerational coresidence and a trend towards modified extended family have emerged when siblings characteristics are taken into consideration as determinants of intergenerational living arrangement.

본 연구는 우리나라의 세대 간 소득탄력성을 보다 정확히 측정하고자 시도하였다. 먼저 선행연구들에서 세대 간 소득탄력성 추정치가 낮았던 주요한 이유는 표본 선택 문제에서 기인함을 보였고, 이러한 문제를 수정한 OLS추정치는 선행연구들에 비해 다소 높았다. 또한 희귀분석에서 발생하는 하향편의를 희귀분석 방법에 의해 항상소득과 임시소득의 분산을 추정하여 계산하였다. 추가적으로 다른 표본들을 연결하여 도구변수 추정을 함으로써 표본 선택 문제가 야기할 수 있는 편의 정도의 범위를 설정하고자 시도하였는데 이러한 방법들에 의한 추정 결과는 단순 희귀분석에 의한 결과와 비슷하거나 다소 높았다.

This study explored the relationships between unmarried adult children and their coresident parents with a focus on the role of intergenerational exchanges and family values affecting parent-child relations. A total of 767 unmarried adult children who lived with their parents were selected from the data of the third National Korean Family Survey in 2015. The main findings were that coresident adult children exchange diverse resources with their parents and that exchange patterns whether receiving more or giving more differed depending on the helping dimensions. 'Receiving' type was more prominent in the dimension of practical help, while, 'receiving and giving' type was more noticeable in the dimension of emotional help. Findings also suggest that intergenerational exchange and family values contribute to parent-child relationship quality. While being an active provider of practical help is positively associated with relationship quality, being a recipient of emotional help is related to a higher level of relationship quality compared to being indifferent. In addition, a stronger value of family responsibility was associated with a higher level of relationship quality. These findings indicate that the importance of the practical and emotional component in the relationships between unmarried adult children and their co-resident parents and reciprocal intergenerational exchange and strong family values may be contributory factors to better parent-child relationships.

The purpose of this research was to assess gender differences in the processes of intergenerational transmission of marital instability. This study revealed gender differences in the intergenerational transmission of marital instability. The fit indices suggest that the hypothesized model fit better for the female sample. Parental divorce marital quality and marital commitment were significant predictors of marital instability for both genders. Parental divorce was a strong predictor of marital quality for women only. While the path between age difference and marital quality for females was strong the same association disappeared for their male counterparts.

This study examines the relationship between intergenerational financial resource transfers and preparation for later life among the middle-aged. The study sample consists of 1536 middle-aged individuals with at least one living parent and one married child. The level of preparation for later life is dependent upon the level of household economic status. The statistically significant variables predicting the level of preparation for later life include age, education, subjective health status, household income and household assets. Moreover, intergenerational resource transfers are statistically significant factors that explain the level of preparation for later life. The effect of financial transfers from middle-aged parents to their adult children on the level of preparation for later life is the most significant financial transfer variable.

The purpose of this research was to test a model of intergenerational transmission of marital instability. An important aspect of the present study was to test the direct and indiect intergenerational transmission processes of marital instability. This study revealed four very important findings. First the effects of parental divorce on children's marital instability were both direct and indirect through mate selection risk factors marital quality and marital commitment. Second premarital backgrounds such as socioeconomic status of parents and relative heterogeneity between spouse before marriage were important to explain one's marital relationship. Third the higher the barriers the higher the marital commitment. Fourth marital quality and marital commitment were important predictors of marital instability. Taken together this study supports the intergenerational transmission perspective that exposure to conflict marriage in one's own childhood would forecast lower marital sat sfaction higher conflict and higher marital instability in the marital relationship. The findings from this study also underline the importance of predisposing marital characteristics such as parental socioeconomic status and relative heterogeneity in explaining marital relationship.

This study examined intergenerational contact and financial support exchange between parents and each of their non-coresident married children. Prior qualitative work has suggested that increased contact between parents and their married daughters may indicate a decline in patrilineal norms in contemporary Korean families. Using a nationally representative sample, this study investigated if married daughters engage in similar levels of intergenerational contact and financial support exchange with their parents in contrast to their married brothers (first-born sons in particular). The data were drawn from the first wave of the Korean Longitudinal Study of Ageing (KLoSA, 2006). For analyses, individuals who had at least one non-coresident married child were selected, resulting in the analytic sample of 3,950 parents with 10,947 non-coresident married children. Both regression with robust standard errors and sibling fixed effects regression models were estimated using the reg and xtreg procedures in STATA. Residential proximity and sociodemographic characteristics of both parents and children were controlled in analyses. Findings suggest that, overall, parents report more frequent face-to-face contact with and financial support from their first-born sons in comparison to other sons and daughters. Daughters, on the other hand, were found to engage in more frequent contact via phone call, mail, or email with their parents. In conclusion, we did not find a strong evidence to support the contention that patrilineal norms have softened in contemporary Korean families to the extent that has been suggested in qualitative studies.

The literature on parent-child relationships in young adulthood lacks a systemic approach that considers the multifaceted nature of intergenerational relationships. In this paper, we identify the latent profiles of young Korean adults' relationships with their parents based on the six dimensions of intergenerational solidarity (structural, associational, affectual, consensual, functional, and normative solidarity) as indicators. We considered solidarity for the mother and the father separately for structural, associational, affectual, and consensual dimensions. In terms of functional and normative solidarity, we measured both upstream and downstream intergenerational support. The sample included 1,015 young adults who were 19-34 years old, never married, not in secondary school, and had both parents living. The latent profile analysis revealed four profiles: (a) independent but intimate (22.7%), (b) coresident, outwardly intimate (32.4%), (c) detached from father (6.7%), and (d) coresident, intimate (38.2%). The factors that predicted each profile included the young adults' education, income, subjective socioeconomic status, and experiencing the features of emerging adulthood along with the parents' marital status, father's employment, and overparenting. The "coresident, intimate" group reported significantly higher levels of life satisfaction and fewer depressive symptoms compared to the other three groups. The lowest levels of psychological adjustment were found in the "coresident, outwardly intimate" group and "detached from father" group.

본 연구는 한국노동패널조사 1-17차 자료에서 추출한 부자쌍(父子雙)을 이용하여 학력이 소득에 미치는 영향을 세대별로 비교하고, 자녀의 학력이 부자간 소득계층 대물림에 미치는 영향을 분석함으로써 계층이동 사다리로서의 교육의 역할을 점검했다. 분석 결과, 학력이 소득에 미치는 영향이 아버지 세대에 비해 자녀 세대에서 최대 70% 가까이 감소한 것으로 나타나 과거에 비해 교육의 계층이동 사다리 역할이 축소되었음을 확인하였다. 또한 아버지의 소득계층을 상위 50%와 하위 50%로 구분한 뒤 자녀의 학력이 부자간 소득계층의 대물림에 미치는 영향을 분석한 결과, 상위 50% 표본에서는 자녀의 교육연수 1년 증가 시 부자간 고소득계층 대물림 확률이 최대 7.0% 증가하는 것으로 나타났으나 하위 50% 표본에서는 자녀의 교육연수가 부자간 저소득계층 대물림 확률에 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 교육이 부(富)의 대물림 확률은 높이면서 빈곤의 대물림 확률을 낮추는 데에는 기여하지 못 해 결국 소득이동성을 떨어뜨리는 방향으로 작용하고 있다는 것을 의미한다.
