본 연구는 중고령 여성장애인을 대상으로 경제활동 참여 여부가 생활만족도에 미치는 영향에 있어 장애정도 매개효과를 검증하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위해 장애인고용패널조사 1차 웨이브 2~8차년도에 참여한 만 45세 이상 만 65세 이하 중고령 여성장애인 4,961명을 대상으로 단계적 선형회귀분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과, 중고령 여성장애인의 경제활동 여부는 생활만족도에 정적(+)인 영향을 미치며, 장애정도는 중고령 여성장애인의 경제활동 여부와 생활만족도 간에 매개역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과를 바탕으로 중고령 여성장애인이 경제활동 참여에 따른 생활만족도를 높일 수 있는 다양한 프로그램을 개발하고 장애정도를 고려한 일자리 설계가 필요함을 실천적 함의로 제시하였다.

This study examines the human capital, economic capital, and psychological factors that influence social participation among the elderly in the future. The data, 'Survey on the Elderly in 2014', were collected from 'The Ministry of Health & Welfare' and the 'Korea Institute for Health and Social Affairs'. The samples included 10,279 elderly people who were over 65 years of age. Multiple regression analysis was used to analyze the research model. The findings are as follows. First, the highest participation awareness level of all was for the hobbies and leisure activities, and the lowest participation awareness level was for volunteer activities. Second, human capital factors such as age, education level, and health status, and economic capital factors such as household consumption expenditure and standard of living signigicant affected social participation awareness among the elderly. Psychological factors such as self-esteem, depression, and the subjective age of becoming elderly, also affected the social participation awareness. Third, awareness differed by sex. In particular, age and depression were restrictions of social participation awareness that were more common among elderly women than among elderly men, although single women were more likely to participate in religious, learning, and hobby and leisure activities. In contrast, chronic diseases and household consumption expenditures were more restrictive of social participation awareness among elderly men compared to elderly women. These results show that human capital, economic capital, and psychological factors heavily influence the social participation awareness of the elderly, although the degree of influence of these factors differs by sex.

대한민국은 농촌사회에서 산업사회로 전환되는 과정에서 상대적으로 여성들의 경제적 참여기회가 증가 하였다. 그로 인해 여성들의 결혼연령이 높아지고 기혼여성들의 경제적 기회비용 및 경제활동 참여가 저 출산으로 이어진다는 인식이 대두 되었다. 특히 직장유형이 출산율에 영향을 주는 것인지에 대한 실증분석이 필요한 시점이다. 이를 위해 2003~2018년 노동 패널데이터를 활용하여 직장유형이 출산에 미치는 영향에 대해서 분석 하였는데 결과는 다음과 같다. 미 취업한 여성과 민간부문에서 종사하는 여성을 비교했을 때 통계적으로 유의한 음(-)의 관계가 도출 되었다. 그러나 미 취업한 여성과 공공부문에서 종사하는 여성을 비교했을 때는 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 미치지 않았다.

Purpose: The study has been conducted to identify factors affecting the participation in leisure activities by elderly women living alone. Methods: Data were collected through a questionnaire survey among 150 elderly women in Seoul and Gyeong-gi Province. The measurement tools that were used include participation in leisure activities, perceived health status, Geriatric Depression Scale Short Form-Korea (GDSS-K), psychological well-being scale, and loneliness scale. The data were analyzed by using the Pearson correlation coefficients, t-test, analysis of variance ANOVA, and stepwise multiple regression with the SPSS/windows version 21.0 program. Results: The analysis shows that the affection for participation in leisure activities of the elderly women living alone who participated in the questionnaire survey is significant (F=14.6, p<.001). The value of the adjusted $R^2$ is 0.55, which accounts for the explanatory power of 55.4%. The predictor that has been found to have the greatest influence on the participation in leisure activities by the elderly women living alone include perceived health status, followed by monthly allowance (10,000 won), psychological well-being, economic status, religion, depression, family structure, and loneliness. Conclusion: The results suggest that in developing nursing interventions and practice for the participation in leisure activities by elderly women living alone, perceived health status, psychological well-being, depression, and loneliness should be considered.

여성의 경제활동 참여 증가에 대한 다양한 정책과 연구가 이루어지고 있으나, 한국 여성의 경제활동 참가율은 현재 50% 수준에 불과하여 주요 선진국에 비해 상대적으로 낮은 실정의 수준에 머물러 있다. 본 연구는 여성의 경제활동 지속의지에 영향을 미치는 요인에 대한 연구로 여성의 경제활동에 대한 동기, 여성의 일에 대한 인식, 지원제도 등과 같은 여성의 경제활동 지속의지에 대한 영향관계에서 각종 요인들과 가족지지의 조절 효과에 관한 영향요인을 실증적으로 분석하고 살펴보고자 한다. 이를 위해 전국에 거주하는 근로여성을 대상으로 20대부터 50대까지 다양한 연령층의 근로여성 406명을 대상으로 설문 조사하였으며, 동 설문조사를 중심으로 실증 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 경제적 및 자아실현 동기 등 경제활동 동기, 여성의 일에 대한 인식, 지원제도는 여성의 경제활동 지속의지에 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 여성의 일 인식이 경제활동 지속의지에 미치는 영향은 가족지지의 정도에 따라 차이가 있는 것으로 나타나 조절 효과가 있는 것으로 확인 되었다. 본 연구결과를 바탕으로 가족지지의 중요성을 통해 여성의 경제활동 지속의지를 높이기 위해서는 일가정 양립 지원정책에 대한 정책적 지원이 필요하다.

The more the middle- and old-aged women show the positive behavioral leisure attitude, the more actively they participated leisure activities. Also, the economic factor of the samples was the most significant factor to affect the leisure attitudes and the participation level of leisure activities.

This study tried to find various alternatives to live the rest of life positively by examining whether satisfaction with work in old age has a positive effect on psychological adjustment in old age. Using the 15th (2020) data of the Korea Welfare Panel Study (KOWEPS), 117 men and 355 women were analyzed as a sample to verify the effect of job participation satisfaction among the elderly on psychological adjustment. The results of the regression analysis in this paper (F=11.680, p<.001) were analyzed to be significant. The results showed gender (β=-.192, p<.001), age (β=2.004, p<.001), and job participation satisfaction (β=-3.726, p<.001). Therefore, it was found to have an effect on psychological adaptation. In terms of gender, it was found that men had higher psychological adaptability than women, and that the lower the age, the higher the psychological adaptability. As a result, it was confirmed that the elderly's job participation is a simple economic part of the elderly, and the psychologically positive influence increased. The higher the job participation satisfaction, the higher the psychological adaptability.

This study investigates the impact of the use of the main local languages in Burkina Faso (Moore, Dioula, Fulfulde) on labor force participation. Using Ethnologue language data, I compute the relative language distance reduction index, after which I use a probit/logit model and instrumental variable approach to account for language use policy endogeneity. This study finds that the use of the Moore language increases the likelihood of labor force participation by 36 percent, with a strong impact on women at 59 percent, nine times higher than men, and 38.3 percent for rural individuals, five times higher than individuals living in urban areas. The Dioula language exhibits comparable trends, while Fulfulde has a negative impact on individuals. The study recommends the use of local language(s) as official language(s) to improve labor force participation. However, a bilingual approach combining local and international language(s) will be of use to account for globalization and international competitiveness. The findings here may be of use to researchers and policymakers as part of their effort to increase the labor force participation rates of women and rural individuals. Moreover, this research has significant implications with regard to the implementation of language use policies in a variety of postcolonial language contexts.
