이 연구는 Beck(1991)이 제안한 오차교정모형(error correction models)을 이용하여 우리나라 기초지방정부의 사회복지비 지출비중의 변화를 분석하였다. 분석결과는 크게 네 가지로 요약된다. 첫째, 지역인구의 증가는 사회복지비 지출비중을 단기적으로 증가시킨다. 둘째, 노인인구비중이 높고 경제개발비 및 기존 사회복지비 지출비중이 낮을 경우, 장기적으로 기초지방정부의 사회복지비 지출비중이 커진다. 셋째, 우리나라에서 기초지방정부 사회복지비 지출비중의 변화에 대한 지방자치(지방선거)의 영향력은 분명하지 않다. 넷째, 어떤 기초지방정부의 사회복지비 지출비중의 수준과 성장률이 클 경우, 그것과 인접한 다른 기초지방정부의 사회복지비 지출비중이 장 단기적으로 크게 상승한다. 전체적으로, 본 연구의 분석결과는 우리나라 기초지방정부들의 사회복지비 지출비중의 변화가 각 지역의 내부정책 환경의 변화보다는 중앙 광역 기초지방정부간의 정치적 제도적 상호작용의 결과임을 시사한다.

Purpose - A lot of preceeding studies have focused on the pains that might be felt in spending money, that is an important role in getting psychological safety. Money and social resources can be all for consumers, and they are likely to form a substituting relationship with one another. Being motivated by the idea that spending money for others can come with joy if one's objective is accomplished by social support, this paper aimed to explore the mediating role of the perceived money importance and gratitude in the relationship between social support and pleasure in spending for other-gift. Research Design, Data, and Methodology - In this empirical study, the experimental group is expected to receive social support while the control group is composed of those who are usually indulged in reminiscences of their sweethearts. From the college students, 160 experiment participants were selected and 80 participants of them were assigned to control group as well as to experimental group respectively at random. Empirical study for each of the two groups was performed respectively by means of questionnaire survey. Experimental group data and control group data were combined together to be used for testing hypotheses. Linear structural equation model in Amos was used to verify the hypotheses, and Bootstrap was also used to examine whether there were the mediating roles of the perceived money importance and gratitude or not. Results - From the empirical study, following conclusions could be drawn: First, social support of others makes one perceive the importance of money less; Second, social support of others makes one perceive gratitude to others; Third, less perceived importance of money and gratitude to others can make one feel pleasure in spending for other-gift; and Fourth, less perceived importance of money and gratitude to others can partially mediate the effect of social support from others on the pleasure in spending for other-gift. Conclusions - The outcomes of this study might offer theoretic and managerial implications as follow: Even though many hitherto studies have asserted that spending money usually comes with pains, this study discovered that social support might reduce perceived the importance of money but make others feel gratitude and, thus, one would feel joy in spending money to buy gift for others, and made a contribution to the progress of the theory of pleasure in spending for other-gift. This paper also made contributions toward the development of emotion marketing theory by showing that the effect of social support on the pleasure in spending for other-gift could be partially mediated by the perceived the importance of money and gratitude to others. Based on the above conclusions, it may be affirmed that marketers should help consumers perceive the importance of money less, and help feel gratitude to others by pointing up the support of others to consumers in an attempt to accelerate spending for other-gift.

Purpose: Anger has become one of the dominantly experienced emotions in recent years, particularly under the COVID-19 pandemic. Considering the critical role that anger plays in consumers' lives, the present research examines how feeling angry about money influences consumers' spending and money distribution decisions. Research design and methodology. Three experiments were conducted using different emotion induction methods (i.e., dictator game, autobiographical recall, and scenario). Results. Feeling angry about money decreased pro-social spending (i.e., less money distribution to the others), but it did not affect virtuous or utilitarian spending for the self-unlike past finding on negative feelings that increased utilitarian spending. Furthermore, whereas anger-tainted money decreased pro-social spending of that money, guilt-tainted money increased pro-social spending. However, the effects of guilt versus anger were not completely symmetrical. The antagonistic effect of anger was diffusive across spending on distant and close others, whereas the pro-social effect of guilt was limited to distant others. Conclusions: These findings help policy makers and financial institutions forecast how money will be distributed or circulated when it is likely to be dampened by anger under the pandemic. They also highlight the importance of examining the effects of discrete emotions (e.g., anger vs. guilt) beyond valence.

최근 돈을 행복하게 소비하는 방법에 대한 논의가 활발하다. 그중 대표적인 것으로는 자신보다 타인을 위해 돈을 사용하는 친사회적 소비를 꼽을 수 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 친사회적 소비가 행복에 미치는 영향력이개인의 외로움 수준에 따라 어떻게 달라지는지 살펴보았다. 친사회적 소비가 제공하는 관계적 혜택을 고려했을 때 친사회적 소비는 외로운 사람의 행복에 특히 효과적일 가능성이 있다. 예상대로, 연구 1과 2에서 일관되게 외로운 사람일수록 친사회적 소비로부터 더 큰 행복을 느끼는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 현상은 친사회적 소비의 측정 방법(연구 1: 평상시 소비 습관, 연구 2: 자원 분배 과제) 또는 행복의 측정 방법(연구 1: 기질적 행복감, 연구 2: 일시적 행복감)에 관계없이 동일했다. 이상의 결과는 타인을 위해 돈을 소비하는 것이 외로운 사람의 행복을 높이는 데 특히 효과적임을 보여준다. 본 연구는 친사회적 소비와 행복에 관한 새로운 개인차 요인을 밝혔다는 점에서 의의가 있다.

Purpose - With rapid population aging in Korea, changes in the population structure will result in a rise in the fiscal burden. This paper investigates the effects of population aging on fiscal spending based on Korea's province data and country panel data from the OECD. Research design, data, and methodology - We use province-level fiscal data from Local Finance Integrated Open System and the Korean Statistical Information Service and also collect country panel data from the OECD. To investigate the relationship between population aging and fiscal expenditures, our analysis uses the fixed effects model. Results - The empirical analysis based on Korean local finance and country panel data show that population aging has a positive impact on social welfare expenditures and it also has a positive impact on spending related to children and the elderly, implying that population aging may lead to an increase in fiscal spending via an increase in social welfare expenditures and spending related to children and the elderly. Conclusion - These empirical results suggest that countries like Korea that expect to experience rapid population aging need to pay more attention to prepare for the expected increase in age-related spending in the near future.

Purpose: This study determines the effect of spending distribution, namely experiential, impulsive, self-expressive, prosocial, and conspicuous spending, on the financial well-being of young working women in Malaysia. Research design, data and methodology: This study employed a quantitative and deductive approach. A sample of 400 young working women was selected using a systematic sampling technique. Data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire and analysed using Structural Equation Modelling (CB-SEM). Results: The findings revealed prosocial and impulsive spending as the significant spending distribution to affect financial well-being. The effect of prosocial spending is positive on financial well-being, while the effect of impulsive spending is a negative predictor of financial well-being. All other spending distribution - experiential, self-expressive, and conspicuous spending - do not have a significant effect on financial well-being. Conclusion: To achieve financial well-being, young working women need to distribute the spending budget for the happiness of others and reduce impulse buying. The findings provide useful insights on the significant role of spending distribution in influencing, how to fuel young working women to develop good spending habits that consequently improve their financial well-being, for themselves and Malaysian economics, as well as the plausible solution to overcome financial problems and high indebtedness.

본 연구는 가구의 사교육비 지출과 다른 소비지출과의 관계와 소득계층에 따른 그 차이를 분석하였다. 분석결과, 빈곤층의 사교육비 지출 수준은 중산층과 상층가구에 비해 적을지라도, 가구의 소비지출에서 차지하는 비중은 높게 나타난다. 또한 가구의 사교육비 비중이 증가 또는 감소로 인해 조정되는 소비 비목은 소득계층에 따라 차이를 보인다. 즉 중산층과 상층은 사교육비 비중 변화에 따라 탄력적으로 다른 소비를 조정하는 반면, 빈곤층은 탄력적으로 조정할 수 있는 소비 항목에 제약이 있었다. 이는 빈곤층은 사교육비 지출로 인한 소비지출의 제약으로 인해 생활에 필요한 충분한 소비를 하지 못할 가능성을 보여준다. 빈곤층 가구에서 사교육비 지출은 가구의 경제적 부담을 증가시킬 뿐만 아니라 가구 소비의 위축을 가져와 실질적인 경제적 안녕을 저해할 가능성이 높다. 따라서 빈곤층의 사교육비 부담과 지출의 증가로 인한 경제적 안녕의 훼손과 불안정한 소비로 인해 발생하는 제반의 문제를 예방하기 위한 사회적 노력이 필요하다.

Purpose: Considering the COVID-19 pandemic and the increasing number of online food delivery applications (OFDA), this study aims to assess the distribution of the presence of Indonesian OFDA and to measure the factors that influence the spending habits of OFDA users. Research design, data and methodology: Two hundred and nine OFDA users from Jakarta's Generation Z were surveyed via a questionnaire. The data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling and SMART PLS 3.0. Results: OFDAs were introduced into Indonesia in the recent past with varying degrees of popularity determined by the number of downloads. Users' intention to use was not determined by the speed of the introduction of an OFDA. This study also reveals that previous experience of the service, the orientation of time and price savings had a significant effect on spending habits. A moderating role of the saving variable on time and price was not demonstrated. Conclusions: The results of the study suggest that, in COVID-19 pandemic conditions, the spending habits of Generation Z are not based on impulse, thrift, or extravagance. The pandemic shaped specific motivations in spending habits, namely prioritizing need. This study has limitations, including the small sample size and the use of internal variables.

Objectives: This study examined differences in health care spending and characteristics among older adults in Korea by high-cost status (persistently, transiently, and never high-cost). Methods: We identified 1 364 119 older adults using data from the Korean National Insurance Claims Database for 2017-2019. Outcomes included average annual total health care spending and high-cost status for 2017-2019. Linear regression was used to estimate differences in the outcomes while adjusting for individual-level characteristics. Results: Persistently and transiently high-cost older adults had higher health care spending than never high-cost older adults, but the difference in health care spending was greater among persistently high-cost older adults than among transiently high-cost older adults (US$20 437 vs. 5486). Despite demographic and socioeconomic differences between transiently high-cost and never high-cost older adults, the presence of comorbid conditions remained the most significant factor. However, there were no or small differences in the prevalence of comorbid conditions between persistently high-cost and transiently high-cost older adults. Rather, notable differences were observed in socioeconomic status, including disability and receipt of Medical Aid. Conclusions: Medical risk factors contribute to high health care spending to some extent, but social risk factors may be a source of persistent high-cost status among older adults in Korea.

이 연구는 복지국가 재편기에 공적연금의 급여 관대성과 지출의 변화추이 및 결정요인을 밝히고자 하였다. 특히 공적연금 제도에서의 경로의존성을 밝힌 방대한 질적 연구들의 심층적 논의를 계량적 비교국가연구의 흐름에 통합하여 공적연금제도의 변화에 영향을 미치는 중요한 요인으로서 공적연금제도의 구조(structure)에 주목하였다. 한편, 복지국가 발달을 설명했던 산업화 이론과 권력자원 이론이 복지국가 재편기 공적연금정책의 변화를 설명하는 데에도 유용한가를 검증하고자 하였다. 1980-2007년까지 서구 복지국가 13개국을 대상으로 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 공적연금제도의 구조에 따라 연금급여 관대성과 지출수준에 상이한 변화 추이가 확인되었다. 둘째, 결합시계열 회귀분석 결과, 연금구조는 제도 관대성과 지출에 영향을 미치는 가장 중요한 요인임이 밝혀졌다. 셋째, 고령화의 영향력은 연금급여 관대성을 통제한 상태에서도 유의미하게 나타나, 고령화가 연금지출을 증가시키는 요인으로 나타났다. 다만 신사회적 위험 정도가 높을수록 노인에 대한 현금지출 집중도는 낮아졌다. 넷째, 권력자원 이론은 재편기의 연금정책 국면에서는 설명력이 통계적으로 입증되지 않았다.
