Recently, low birthrate has been recognized as a social problem, which is expressed as catastrophy of population. There are several reasons why low birth rate has occurred directly and indirectly, generating total economic and social burden for our society. That is, low birthrate should not be simply regarded as reduction of population. The present study identified the reasons of low birthrate and the current status of infertility, and examined practical and theoretical issues in terms of low birthrate. It is our contention that low birthrate and infertility is one of the most important governmental issue to enhance quality of life of the public. Thus, integrated and systematic policy must be developed and implemented to effectively meet the issues.

The nation's birthrate has been rapidly falling. The purpose of this study was to explore the factors related to low birthrate, by analyzing TV dramas dealing with childbirth and rearing. Content analysis is well suited to research probing widespread cultural notions or behavior. If any part or all of the dramas discussed an aspect of childbirth and rearing, we recorded verbatim quotes and paraphrased some specific points. Using the technique of multiple observers, inter rater as well as intra rater reliabilities were measured. The results showed that emergent themes in TV dramas on low birthrate are social environment, family context, and value changes. The conclusions and implications of these findings are discussed.

This study analyzes the contents of low birthrate measures by the government and their effectiveness. The discussion on the measures being promoted by the government is conducted by considering the analysis on the cause of low birthrates, introduction of overseas policies and government policy propositions, etc. The evaluation on effectiveness is conducted by considering the recognition of the policies by women who are the subject of childbirth and preceding studies. Low birth rates are not the problem of an individual anymore, but a task that the whole of society has to resolve. The comprehensive measures should be made including the elements that influence birth rate such as reducing the cost of raising a child, creating a favorable environment in society and worksite, and improving the nurturing environment, etc.

One ingredient in an empirical birthrate estimate for pulsar binaries is the fraction of sky subtended by the pulsar beam: the pulsar beaming fraction. This fraction depends on both the pulsar's beam geometry defined by the pulsar's opening angle and the misalignment angle between its spin and magnetic axes. The current estimates for pulsar binary birthrates are based on an average value of beaming fractions for only two pulsars, i.e., PSRs B1913+16 and B1534+12. In this work, we revisit the observed pulsar binaries to examine the sensitivity of birthrate predictions to different assumptions regarding the pulsar beam geometry. The results show that, for those pulsars without any direct beam geometry constraints, the estimated beaming correction factor is likely to be smaller than six, a canonically adopted value when calculating birthrates of Galactic pulsar binaries. The median birthrate estimates for pulsar-white dwarf and pulsar-neutron star binaries in the Galactic disk, based on the best observational constraints, are 34 per Myr and 89 per Myr, respectively.

The primary objective of this study was to classify different family values and to examine how university students' perceptions of childbirth differ according to the types of family values. The sample for this study consisted of 601 university students living in the cities of Seoul, Incheon, and the Gyeonggi province. The data were collected using structured questionnaires distributed through an online survey. Descriptive statistics including frequencies, percentages, means and standard deviation and cluster analysis, One-Way ANOVA and $X^2$ test are applied to analyze the data. The major results of this study are as follows: 1. The values of the university students regarding marriage, children, and familism were used as parameters to categorize the different types of family values on the cluster analysis. The results of the cluster analysis showed that the university students' family values could be classified into three types; "family-centered values", "individual-centered values", and "familism children-centered value". 2. The family values of the university students differed according to each student's gender, age, religion, socioeconomic status, gender-role attitude, and relationships with his or her father and or mother. 3. On average, the number of children that the students would like to have in the future is higher than the number of children that they actually plan to have. 4. The students' perceptions of family planning and low birthrate circumstances differed according to their family values. The university students categorized as having "family-centered values" planned to have the highest number of children in the future and thought that the low birthrate was a very serious issue, whereas the students with "individual-centered values" planned to have the lowest the number of children in the future. 5. To conclude the study, recommendations were made for the government to improve the low birthrate and for facilitate further research regarding this issue.

본 논문은 '가족 중심축의 수평화 2단계 모형'이란 분석틀을 통해 사회경제적 발전에 따라 출산율이 하락하는 단계와 출산율이 상승하는 단계가 있음을 제시하는데 목적이 있다. 사회경제적 발전이 진행되면서 가족의 중심축이 부자(父子)의 수직축에서 부부(夫婦)의 수평축으로 이동하며, 그 과정은 결혼 이혼 등 가족의 형성 측면에서 남녀 개인의 평등을 이루는 산업화 단계와, 자녀양육 가사노동 등 가족의 유지 측면에서 부부 평등을 이루는 후기 산업화 단계로 나뉜다. 본 논문은 전세계 136개국을 대상으로 OECD 가입국 33개국을 후기산업화단계의 선진국으로, 나머지 103개국을 산업화단계의 개발도상국으로 구분하여 분석했다. 연구방법은 종속변수 출산율에 대해 출생성비, 평균 출산연령, 여성의 경제활동참가율을 통제변수로, 1인당 국민소득, 여성의 교육수준, 성격차지수를 설명변수로 하고, 산업화단계 국가들과 후기산업화 단계 국가 별로 출산율에 대한 위계적 회귀분석을 실시했다. 연구결과 산업화 단계의 개도국에는 여성의 교육수준과 1인당 국민소득이 통계적으로 유의한 변수였으나, 성격차지수는 유의하지 않았던 반면에 후기산업화 단계의 선진국에서는 성격차지수와 1인당 국민소득, 여성의 교육기대연한이 통계적으로 유의했다. 결론적으로 산업화단계에서는 여성의 교육수준이, 후기산업화단계에서는 성평등수준이 출산율에 가장 영향을 미치는 결정요인인 것으로 파악되었다.

본 연구에서는 육아에 대한 공포 등 심리적 요인이 출산율에 미치는 영향을 실증적으로 분석하였다. 2000년~2018년까지 육아에 대한 부정적인 기사가 전체 사회 기사에서 차지하는 비중을 바탕으로 지표를 산출하였다. 지표 분석 결과, 지표가 증가하면 3년 뒤의 출산율은 떨어지는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 상관관계 분석, 단순 회귀분석, VAR 분석에서도 일관적으로 나타났다. 그랜져 인과관계 분석 결과, 지표와 3년 뒤 출산율의 관계는 단순 상관관계가 아닌 인과관계에 있음을 알 수 있었다. 연령대별로도 차이를 보였는데, 20~30대 여성의 출산율은 지표에 유의한 반응을 보였으나, 40대 출산율은 반응을 보이지 않았다. 또한 지표가 상승하면 1아 출산율에는 영향을 미치지만, 2아/3아 이상의 출산율에는 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 이것은 여성의 나이가 어릴수록 육아에 대한 부정적인 기사에 영향을 많이 받지만, 이미 출산/육아를 경험해본 사람들에게는 큰 영향을 미치지 못한다는 직관과도 일치한다. 본 연구는 뉴스 빅데이터를 단순한 키워드 언급량 변화 모니터링이라는 한정된 용도를 벗어나, 사회 현상을 예측하는데 유의미한 지표를 추출해 냈다는데 의미가 있다. 또한 이러한 빅데이터 기반의 지표는 출산율에 대한 3년의 선행성이 있기 때문에 미리 감지할 수 정보를 제공한다는 장점이 있다.
