이 연구는 사회경제적 박탈 경험이 노인의 자살 생각에 미치는 영향을 분석하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 분석 자료는 한국복지패널 9차년도 자료를 사용하였으며, SPSS를 활용하여 빈도분석, 평균차이분석, 상관분석, 로지스틱 회귀분석 등을 실시하였다. 주요 분석결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 공적연금을 받지 못했던 경험, 근로능력이 있으나 실업 상태였던 경험, 경제적 어려움으로 균형 있는 식사를 할 수 없었던 경험, 먹을 것이 떨어졌는데도 더 살 돈이 없었던 경험 등의 순으로 박탈 빈도가 높았다. 둘째, 배우자가 없는 경우, 학력과 소득수준이 낮을수록 자살 생각이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 돈이 없어서 본인이나 가족이 병원에 갈수 없었던 경험, 2달 이상 집세가 밀렸거나 집세를 낼 수 없어 집을 옮긴 경험, 먹을 것을 살 돈이 없어 균형 있는 식사를 할 수 없었던 경험, 공과금을 기한 내 납부하지 못한 경험, 근로능력이 있으나 직업을 갖지 못한 경험, 경제적인 어려움 때문에 먹을 것이 떨어졌는데도 더 살 돈이 없었던 경험 등이 노인의 자살 생각에 통계적으로 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구 결과를 토대로 이 논문은 의료급여 사례관리 확대, 노인 주거급여 및 정주 여건 개선, 노인 식생활실태 조사 강화, 노인 공과금 지원 방안 확대 등의 정책 방안을 제시하였다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of the factors such as self-esteem, social supports, socio-economic status of parents, degree of disability in child, stress coping, religion, and sports.exercise on the qualities of lives in mothers with disabled children. Data were collect from 45 institutions(schools from kindergarten to senior-high, special education institutes, and social welfare institutions) by self-report questionnaire, and the subjects of the study were 386 mothers in Seoul whose children were attending the schools or institutions. Findings according to socio-demographic variables are as follows: 1. Mothers with disabled children in this study thought their quality of life as average degree. 2. The younger the mothers and children, the higher the quality of life was. 3. The higher the educational level and monthly income, the higher the quality of life was. 4. There was no statistically significant difference between the existence and nonexistence of spouse, and between the existence and nonexistence of religion as well. Findings analyzed by multiple regression are as follows: 1. Among 7 independent variables 'self-esteem'(${\beta}$=.49, p<.001), 'social supports'(${\beta}$=.15, p<.01), and 'socio-economic status'(${\beta}$=.11, p<.05) were found to be statistically significant in quality of life in mothers, while the rests were found not significant. 2. 'Self-esteem' was found to be the most influencing variable, meaning that the psychological factor such as self-esteem is more important than environmental factors in qualities of lives in mothers. 3. The total amount of explanation of the model was Adjusted R square=.301, so that it can be said about 30% can be explained among total variance of the qualities of lives in mothers with disabled children. Conclusions and recommendations based on the results above are: First, it is strongly recommended to conduct programs promoting self-esteem in mothers with disabled children, and to include 'self-esteem' hereafter in the studies related to qualities of lives in mothers with disabled children. Second, comprehensive and practical countermeasures should to be formulated to back up expenses for education and medical care, purchasing relative tools and equipments, plus helping to find jobs.

The re-unification of the two Koreas is seen as a potential solution to the aging problem and low fertility, along with the increase in the old population structure of the Republic of Korea. Population structure is an indicator of national competitiveness or growth, but little is known officially about the populations of Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK). Understanding the population structure of the DPRK is important to prepare for re-unification and estimate the socio-economic costs of national welfare under a re-unified Korea. In this paper, we assess reliability of the two modern national censuses of DPRK and use the limited resources available to reconstruct the intercensal populations between these two censuses. Excess deaths from the 1995 famine are estimated at 489,972 to 574,306 and are close to the estimates of Goodkind et al. (2011) and the reconstructed populations in the of DPRK implies a big difference between two Koreas.

The propose of this study is to examine the economic stresses and coping strategies for elderly households depending on the variables of background, and to analyze the relations between these factors. Elderly households which satisfied the following criteria were recruited for participation: (a) reside in Seoul, or in the metropolitan area (b) live apart from their adult children after retirement and (c) ages over sixty. From September 20th, 2006 to November 30th, 2006, 296 were used for this research. First, the mean score of the economic stress level of elderly households was 2.87 out of 5, and the stress levels of income expenditure and asset debt were intermediate. The mean score of the economic coping strategy was 3.17 out of 5. In order to overcome economic stress, elderly households utilized reducing their expenditure, financial management, and re-employment. The level of elderly households' life satisfaction was 3.29 of 5 and the depression was 3.17 of 5. Second, there was a difference in accordance with the objective economic variables and the degree of the economic stress after the review of the variables of the elderly households and the coping strategy due to economic stress. The result shows that the households which had a low economic status and high economic stress from the objective viewpoint participated in more economic activities. Their reactions were to decrease the overall expenditure through reducing the expenditure rather than to manage the asset effectively through re-employment or to inaugurating a business. Third, I analyzed situational factors, economic stress, and economic coping strategy in order to compare relative contributors to psychological well-being through using regression. At the third phase in the process of analysis, the socio-psychological factors appeared to be significant factors contributing to psychological well-being. Regarding the stress caused by income expenditure increased, when elderly households were more concerned about reducing expenditure and re-employment, their feelings of depression increased.

This paper investigates the impact of the effective minimum wage, defined as the log difference between the minimum and the median wages, on wage inequalities in the OECD countries. Unlike the previous studies that focus on single countries in which the minimum wage has no cross-sectional variation and rely instead on within-country variations of wage distribution across regions or socio-economic characteristics, we use a country panel that allows for both cross-sectional and time-series variations in minimum wage. We also control for more factors than in the previous studies whose absence may cause endogeneity. Our results confirm the previous findings that increases in minimum wage alleviate the wage inequality at the lower tail of the wage distribution, while having little effect at the upper tail. The estimated effect is larger for women than for men, which is consistent with the fact that the share of workers who are directly affected by the changes in minimum wage is bigger among women than men. An application of the IVs of Autor, Manning and Smith (2016) supports the robustness of our findings.

본 연구는 우리나라 중년기와 노년기의 주관적 건강, 신체적 건강, 정신적 건강수준의 차이에 학력과 소득의 사회경제적 지위가 어떻게 매개하는지를 알아보기 위한 연구이다. 선행연구에서는 증가하는 노년인구와 더불어 심각하게 증가되는 의존 수명에 대한 다양한 논의가 이루어지고 있다. 그러나 정작 수년 내에 노년기에 접어들게 될 중년기의 건강수준이 노년기와는 각 건강수준에서 어떻게 차이가 나며, 사회경제적 지위에 따른 건강수준이 어떠한가에 대한 연구는 매우 제한적이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 전 국민을 대상으로 한 자료를 토대로 중년기와 노년기의 계층별, 연령별 건강수준을 분석하고자 한다. 분석자료는 한국노동연구원에서 실시한 1차 한국고령화패널(KLOSA)을 활용하였고, 주관적 건강, 신체적 건강, 정신적 건강수준에 소득과 학력이 매개변수로서 작용하는지를 검증하기 위해 경로분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과 중년기에서 노년기로 접어들수록 주관적 건강수준은 낮아지고, 만성질환 유병은 높고, 정신건강수준은 매우 낮아지는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 중년기와 노년기 모두 학력과 소득이 높을수록 건강수준이 높고, 중년기와 노년기의 모든 건강수준에 학력과 소득이 매개효과를 갖는 것으로 나타났다.

In this study attempts were made to identify the areas of single animal ploughing (SAP) in Bangladesh, causes of its localization and the socio-economic constraints hindering the expansion of the system. To determine the areas of single animal ploughing, 123 upazilas of 15 districts were surveyed. Of them, 16 upazilas were found heavily engaged with this system. A detailed investigation of 469 SAP and 439 double animal ploughing (DAP) farmers revealed that there was significant difference between the two systems in respect of cost of production and yield per unit of land. The benefit/cost (B/C) ratio was higher in SAP system. However, no significant difference was observed in respect of time required for ploughing, intensity of cropping, cost of implements, and cost of repairing implements (except yoke). The study recommends for expansion of SAP system in areas where buffaloes are concentrated. Fro this purpose, logistic and institutional supports need to be made available.
