본 연구에서는 내러티브 탐구를 통해 5명의 직장을 가진 기혼 중년 여성들의 박사 과정 수행 경험에 관한 어려움과 보람에 대해 탐색하였다. 직장을 가진 기혼 중년 여성들의 대학원 수행은 아내, 어머니, 직장인, 학생 등의 다중 역할이 요구됨으로써 더욱 어려움을 동반한다. 연구자는 박사 과정 수행을 경험한 기혼 중년 여성들의 이야기를 수집하고, 이를 '입문 동기, 박사 과정 수행 중의 어려움, 박사 과정수행 중의 보람'이라는 세 가지 범주로 나누어 기술하였다. 입문 동기는 차별에서 오는 부담감, 내적성장에 대한 갈망, 외적 보상에 대한 열망으로 분류하였고, 어려움은 학문적 성장에 대한 어려움, 학문 외적인 어려움, 보람은 학문적 보람과 학문 외적 보람으로 분류하여 박사 과정 수행 경험이 함의하는 의미와 시사점을 알아보는 것에 의의를 두었다. 이는 박사 과정에 다니는 기혼 중년 여성들을 지원하기 위한 구체적인 자료가 될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
