This study aims to analyze the trend of changes in the elderly living arrangement over the past 20 years and the reasons why the elderly choose these changes. The subjects of the survey were households aged 65 years or older in Korea. Data from the survey of Ministry of Health and Welfare conducted in 2004, 2014, 2020 were used for the analysis. The result of analysis was as follows; First, since 2000, the number of elderly households living with their children has been rapidly decreasing, while the number of elderly couple households and single elderly households is gradually increasing. Second, elderly living alone appeared more in rural areas, women, older people, and elderly with low education. They are in a vulnerable position that needs help. Therefore, welfare policies for the elderly should be focused on elderly single households. Finally the reason for choosing elderly single household in 2020 was that the voluntary choice by the individual accounted for a much higher rate than the unintentional choice by the children. In addition, the life satisfaction of the elderly who arbitrarily selected the living arrangement was higher than that of the elderly who deliberately chose the living arrangement.

본 연구는 한국복지패널에서 제공하는 1차년도조사데이터(2006)를 사용하여 농촌노인가구에 대하여 최저생계비를 기초로 한 절대적 빈곤율, 상대적 빈곤율, 주관적 빈곤율과 빈곤감의 지표로 주관적 경제수준 및 생활만족수준을 농촌비노인가구, 도시노인가구, 전체가구와 비교함으로써 농촌노인가구의 빈곤특성을 파악하고 있다. 연구결과는, 첫째, 농촌노인가구의 인구사회학적 특성에 따른 빈곤율에서는 남성보다는 여성이, 연령이 많을수록, 국민기초생활보장 수급가구일수록, 노인단독세대일수록 더 높은 빈곤율을 보이고 있다. 둘째, 절대적 빈곤율과 상대적 빈곤율에서는 농촌노인가구가 다른 집단에 비해 높은 빈곤율을 나타내고 있는 반면, 주관적 빈곤율에서는 도시노인가구와 전체가구가 더 높은 빈곤율을 보이고 있다. 셋째, 주관적 경제수준 및 생활만족수준에서는 도시노인가구가 농촌노인가구에 비하여 더 높은 빈곤감을 나타내고 있다. 따라서 실질적인 빈곤수준은 농촌노인가구가 다른 집단에 비해 현저히 높은 반면, 주관적인 빈곤감은 다소 낮은 빈곤특성을 보여주고 있다.

The purpose of this study was to examine household food insecurity and the associations of food insecurity with socioeconomic characteristics, food behaviors, health status and nutrient intake among elderly people in a rural area. This study included 191 elderly people (mean age = $72.0{\pm}7.4$) in Jeollabuk-do, Jangsu-gun. House food insecurity was measured using an adapted version of the USDA short form household food insecurity scale, and nutrient intake measured by a 24-hour dietary recall. Only 15.2% of the subjects were in food-insecure households, 84.8% of the elderly households were food-secure. The food-insecure households were significantly lower in the number of family, frequency of shopping, and perceived health status than the food-secure households. In addition, they had serious tooth problems and NSI (Nutrition Screening Index) scores. Food-insecure households were significantly lower in most areas of nutrient intake (energy, protein, fat, Ca, P, Fe, K, Na, Zn, Vit. $B_2$, niacin, Vit. E), and also lower in nutrient intake compared to dietary reference intake (energy, protein, P, Fe, K, Na, Vit. $B_1$, Vit. $B_2$, niacin, Vit. E). These results suggest that the household food insecurity measures used in this study were an important indicator of nutritional well-being among elderly persons in the rural area. Food insecurity should be considered an important issue to public health and food service programs should be expanded for food-insecure households in rural areas.
