현재 정보소외계층 대상으로서 다문화가정에 대한 정의는 2012년 정부가 다문화가정에 대한 정보격차조사를 시작했던 당시의 기준을 그대로 사용하고 있다. 본 연구의 목표는 정보소외계층으로서 다문화가정에 대해 검토하고 재 정의 하고자 하는 것이다. 본 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 현재는 결혼이주민 중 정보소외대상으로 정보격차조사 대상을 결혼이주여성에 한정하고 있으나, 향후 결혼 혹은 이주노동자 등의 신분으로 결혼이주남성 역시 증가할 것으로 예상되며, 실제 증가하고 있는 추세에 있다. 다문화사회를 대비한다는 측면에서 볼 때 정보소외대상에 결혼이주남성까지 포함해야 한다. 둘째, 현재 다문화가정에서 정보소외대상으로서 다루어지고 있는 대상은 결혼이주여성에 한정하고 있으나, 결혼이주를 통해 형성된 가정의 아동 역시 정보격차문제를 겪고 있다. 다문화가정 아동의 정보격차가 문제시되는 것은 이러한 정보격차가 교육격차나 향후 경제격차로까지 연계될 가능성이 높기 때문이다. 따라서 향후 정부의 정보격차지수 및 실태조사의 대상범위에 다문화가정의 아동을 포함시켜야 한다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the general characteristics and the variety of family life experiences related to the life satisfaction of multicultural families with school-aged children. Data were drawn from the first wave of the Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey conducted in 2010 and developed by the National Youth Policy Institute. Further, the sample for this study consisted of 95 multicultural families who met the requirements. The data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, the t -test, analysis of variance, and multiple regression using SPSS ver. 18.0. The main results showed that family life experiences that were made up of 5 domains, specifically time, leisure, household economy, health, and child education had a broad range of levels. In addition, family life experiences differed according to the general characteristics of multicultural families with school-aged children, such as mother's employment status, number of children, father's employment status and education level, and family composition. Lastly, their life satisfaction was significantly predicted by the father's employment status and health, children's age, children's education, and leisure in the order of significance. These findings suggested the need to expand the social intervention range for multicultural families with school-aged children, particularly in terms of family leisure and children's school life adaptation.

본 연구에서는 다문화 가정 어머니의 자아분화가 학습된 무기력에 미치는 영향에서 양육 스트레스의 매개효과를 검증하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 변인들 간의 상관관계를 조사하고, 다문화 가정 어머니의 자아분화, 학습된 무기력, 양육스트레스 간의 구조적 관계를 확인하기 위해 모형검증을 실시하였다. 연구는 다문화 가정에서 자녀를 양육하는 어머니를 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하여 최종 193부가 자료 분석에 사용되었다. 자료 분석은 SPSS 23.0과 AMOS 23.0 프로그램을 활용하였다. 분석결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 다문화 가정 어머니의 자아분화는 양육 스트레스와 학습된 무기력에 부(-)의 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났고, 양육 스트레스는 학습된 무기력에 정(+)의 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 다문화 가정 어머니의 자아분화와 학습된 무기력의 관계에서 양육 스트레스는 매개효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 다문화 가정의 어머니는 문화적 차이와 새로운 사회에 적응해야 하는 환경 속에서 자아분화 수준을 높이는 것이 양육 스트레스와 학습된 무기력을 감소시킬 수 있음을 시사한다.
