한국 사회는 국제결혼 등의 원인으로 다문화사회로 급변하고 있다. 본 연구는 도시형 다문화가정 결혼이주여성의 문화적응과 식생활행태를 분석하고, 어떤 관련성이 있는지에 대해 규명하였다. 조사대상은 대전시 거주 다문화가정 89가구의 결혼이주여성을 대상으로 하였다. 이는 우리나라 다문화가정 결혼이주여성의 출신국의 비율과 유사하게, 중국(39.3%), 베트남(28.1%) 그리고 일본을 제외한 기타 국가로 나타났다. 도시에 거주하는 다문화가정 결혼이주여성의 문화적응 유형은 연령이 높을수록, 거주기간이 길수록, 자녀가 있을수록 통합유형 성향이 유의적으로 높은 것으로 나타났다. 거주기간과 자녀의 유무는 동화유형에 영향을 미치는 변수로 나타났다. 베트남 출신 결혼이주여성의 경우 다른 집단에 비해 주변화유형으로 나타났다. 문화적응에 영향을 미치는 식생활행태 관련 변인을 분석한 결과, 식사 태도, 식사의 다양성 그리고 생활과의 균형성 및 식생활행동은 문화적응 유형 중 통합유형과 유의적으로 관련성이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 사회인구학적 변인과 식생활행태 변인의 문화적응에 대한 영향력 분석을 한 결과, 통합유형인 문화적응에서 거주기간(31.4% 설명력), 한국어 사용 능력(34.2% 설명력), 그리고 식사의 다양성(33.5% 설명력)이 유의적으로 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 그러므로 도시형 다문화가정 결혼이주여성의 문화적응은 통합유형에 있어, 식생활행태가 중요한 변인으로 작용함을 알 수 있었다. 이에 도시형 다문화가정 결혼이주여성의 긍정적인 문화적응은 올바른 식생활행태 확립이 요구되며, 이를 위하여 관련 분야에서의 다양한 연구 및 프로그램 개발 및 실행이 이루어져야 할 것이다.

The present study examined the cultural sensitivity of community members to migrant wives in Korea. A total of 12 community members: 4 neighbors, 4 practitioners, and 4 public officials from both urban and rural area were interviewed about their prior experiences with migrant wives. The participants provided their personal feelings and thoughts on a variety of issues involving migrant wives, such as cultural integration, cultural knowledge, opportunity equality, cultural originality, language usage, openness, and the movement toward a more multicultural society. Interview results indicated that the participants had perceived others' prejudice toward migrant wives in Korean society; the results also indicated that they wanted to participate in cultural festivals and gain knowledge of other cultures. The majority of the participants endorsed a uni-directional perspective on cultural adaption, and they thought of migrant wives as community members. The participants' attitudes toward a multicultural society were both positive and negative, and they suggested that Korean society is moving toward a broader perspective. Implications of the study and directions for future research were discussed.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the factors affecting the unmet healthcare needs of married immigrant women. Methods: This study was a secondary data analysis using data from the 2009 National Survey of Multicultural Families. Data collected from 58,735 married immigrant women who had spouses were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Chi-square test, and logistic regression. Results: Overall, 9.9% of married immigrant women have unmet healthcare needs. The significant predictors related to unmet healthcare needs were young age, high level of education, employed, country of origin, long period of residence, low income, uninsured, urban area, low level of subjective health status, and illness experience over past two weeks. In particular, four variables (long period of residence, low income, subjective health status, and illness experience over past two weeks) significantly predicted unmet healthcare needs for women from all countries of origin. Conclusion: The results of the study indicate that common predictors related to unmet healthcare needs of married immigrant women are a long period of residence, low income, subjective health status, and illness experience over past two weeks. Therefore intervention strategies to decrease unmet healthcare needs should focus on these significant predictors.

In recent years, the population structure has been changed by the progresses of 6th-industrialization and transportation in farming areas. This study aims to suggest a regional development plan of farming areas in accordance with the demographic changes. Population structure indicators were derived from previous studies and literature review in order to identify the types of farming areas. Demographic indicators separated to depopulation and population growth in farming areas through a standardized scoring method. This research found that the division of economy is not only the most important division in any other regional development divisions but also necessary to develop new sources of non-farm income through traditional culture, natural environment. In the social division, it is necessary to secure the facilities for the formation of a sense of community to multicultural families and existing residents in farming areas. In the environmental division, it is desirable to improve the quality and satisfaction of life for residents such as the sidewalk and park that utilize ecological environment, culture, history for both depopulation and population region. In the physical division, there is a need for improvement of the facilities of basic living infrastructure service such as roads, water supply and sewerage systems. In the institution division, sustainable financial support of the central government policy for farming areas is crucial for the improvement of residential environment in the farming areas of depopulation and population region.
