The purpose of this study is to classify the characteristic and conduct a typological analysis of college students' attitudes toward remarriage by the elderly, employing Q-methodology. The results are as follows: College students strongly supported the opinion that remarriage relieves the elderly of loneliness, and that familial support is crucial for the remarriage to happen. They also rejected of the idea that the elderly would feel ashamed to remarry. Students' attitudes towards the elderly's remarriage fell into three classifications: the progressively accepting type, the realistically accepting type, and the conservatively accepting type. Type 1, "progressively accepting type" enthusiastically accepts and supports the elderly's remarriage as a progressive and emotive relationship. The "realistically accepting type" holds the opinion that remarriage in later life is based on overcoming loneliness or satisfying attachment need rather than love. This typology believes that the elderly would not be equal as spouses, and would not be overly distressed by public perception. The type 3, "conservatively accepting type" believes that remarriage would be likely to strain the elderly's relationship with other family members, that it will not be the beginning of a new independent life, but are generally accepting of the idea of remarriage in later life.

The results are as follows: 1. Widowed elderly were positive towards dating and remarriage, and were more positive towards dating than towards remarriage. 2. The influence of the relationships with the elderly's children was bigger on remarriage than on dating. 3. Among the typology of attitudes, 'pro-dating/anti-remarriage' group had the most participants, and 'anti-dating/anti-remarriage' group had the least participants. 4. It is worth noting that 'anti-dating/pro-remarriage' group had distinctly different characteristics compared to 'pro-dating/anti-remarriage' group, as was with "pro-dating/pro-remarriage" group and 'anti-dating/anti-remarriage' group. To elaborate, those who belonged to 'anti-dating/pro-remarriage' group were younger, mostly male, relatively highly educated, had weaker emotional ties with children, and got the least help. In contrast, the members of 'pro-dating/anti-remarriage' group were older, overwhelmingly female, and vast majority of them were lowly educated. Also, they had stronger emotional ties with the children, and got the most help. 'Anti-dating/anti-remarriage' group and 'pro-dating/pro-remarriage' group showed a contrast in the intensity of emotional ties with their children. The former was the strongest in emotional ties, and got a considerable amount of help, while the latter was weaker in emotional ties and got less help.

Living arrangement is considered an important variable in discussing loneliness and the psychological state of the elderly. From this point of view, this study aimed at Identifying the effects of living arrangements, sociodemographic variables, social activities, and social psychological variables on the psychological loneliness of the rural elderly. Though hierarchical regression analyses. the predictors of loneliness among the rural elderly were identified as single/co-residence living arrangement(r=.49), sense of well-being based on respects for others' perspectives (r: -.22), needs for remarriage (r=.22), and work hours during off- farming season (r: -.19). The effects of living arrangement remained strong and were not influenced by the addition of sociodemographic variables, social activity variable, and social psychological variables. The feeling of loneliness of the elderly who were living alone was higher than among the elderly who were living with someone else. This finding suggests that the loneliness of the rural elderly derives primarily from the lack of family Interaction. Therefore, it is recommended that social welfare policies for the rural elderly be designed to improve their family and social interactions.

This study focuses on the differences in family values, which is a cause of family dissolution and conflicts of marriage immigrant women. This study was conducted on 441 women in Vietnam. It was done to explore their family values. Specifically, the following were examined: the overall family values and martial status of Vietnamese women; differences in their family values by region (northern, central, southern). The survey questionnaire consists of the following content: 'family perception'; 'gender-role values'; 'elderly parent support value'. The characteristics of family values of Vietnamese women are as follows. First, the scope of family perceived by them was relatively narrow. In particular, most of them didn't perceive the parents of a spouse as a familymember. Second, in terms of gender-roles, they perceived men and women as equal and didn't have strong perception of traditional gender roles. Third, they felt strongly about supporting elderly parents. The perception of supporting elderly parents is based on equal gender roles, instead of the paternalistic approach. They preferred financial support to living with parents. There were also differences in family values by region. Also, their values seemed to be the opposite of the ones well-known by region. In addition, their values were changing amid economic growth and modernization. Residents in Can Tho in the south - known to have open-minded Southeast Asian values - had the most patrilineal, traditional values with strong perception towards supporting elderly parents. Residents in Hanoi in the north - known to have heavy influence of Confucian culture - had non-traditional values with positive attitude towards liberal sex culture, divorce, and remarriage. Residents in Da Nang, a central region, had a mixture of northern and southern characteristics in terms of family values.

본 연구의 목적은 재혼한 노인들이 겪는 경험의 세계를 사고방식 및 생활양식 속에 내재되어 있는 의미뿐만 아니라 사회 문화적 맥락에서 이해하기 위해서이다. 연구대상자는 자신의 경험을 충분히 표현할 수 있는 65세 이후 재혼한 부부 3쌍을 임의표집 하였다. Strauss와 Corbin(1998)의 근거이론방법을 적용한 질적 연구이며, 참여자 진술로부터 86개의 의미 있는 문장을 도출하고 30개의 주제로 구분하여 13개로 범주화하였다. 연구결과 중심현상은 '결혼생활에 대한 양가감정'이었으며, 이를 조율해 나가는 중재조건은 '배우자와 가족들의 인정과 신뢰', '적절한 보상'이었으며 이를 대처하도록 고안된 작용/상호작용전략은 '배우자를 이해하려고 노력하기'로 나타났다. 이상의 결과들은 재혼 노인의 결혼생활 적응과정에 대한 본질을 이해하는데 도움이 될 것이며, 이를 통해 성공적인 재혼생활을 영위하고 홀로된 노인들이 당면하고 있는 현실적인 문제에 접근할 수 있는 기초자료가 되기를 기대한다.

본 연구 목적은 농아노인들이 생활하면서 어떤 경험을 하면서 살아가고 있는지를 드러내고자 한다. 그리고 이런 연구를 통하여 일반인(청인)들이 농아인의 삶의 고충과 문화를 이해하고 지역사회의 일원으로 더불어 살아가는데 기초자료를 제공하고자 한다. 연구방법은 현상학적 질적 연구로 하였으며, 연구 참여자는 농아노인 7명이다. 심층면접하고 분석한 결과 농아노인의 생활 경험은 '잊혀 지지 않은 상처', '지역사회에서 생활', '가족과의 생활', '농아노인의 결혼', '현실에 적응하고 살기'로 범주화할 수 있었다. '잊혀 지지 않은 상처'의 하위범주는 '열병을 치료받지 못함', '6.25전쟁 피해', '사람들의 차가운 시선'으로 나타났으며, 농아노인들은 이제까지 살아오면서 잊혀 지지 않은 마음의 상처로 고통스러워하면서 살아가고 있었다. '지역사회에서 생활'의 하위범주는 '생활의 불편', '생활의 불이익', '단절된 생활'로 나타났는데, 농아노인들은 생활의 불편함과 불이익을 당할 뿐 아니라 지역사회와 단절된 생활로 외로움을 느끼면서 살아가고 있었다. '가족과의 생활'의 하위범주는 '자녀들과 소통이 안 됨', '다시 버림받음', '가족에게 이용당함', '가족이 있으나 외로움', '독립해 살고 싶음'으로 나타났는데, 농아노인들은 가족으로부터 지지받고 살지 못하고 오히려 버림당하고 이용당하고 외롭게 살아가고 있었다. '농아노인의 결혼'의 하위범주는 '씨받이로 보내어짐', '빈번한 재혼과 이혼', '부부처럼 의지함'으로 나타났는데, 농아노인들은 자신들만의 결혼 문화를 형성하면서 서로 의지하며 살아가고 있었다. '현실에 적응하며 살기'의 하위범주는 '이웃의 도움받기', '생활의 처신 잘하기', '한글 배우기','일하면서 살기', '자유롭게 살기', '그리워하며 살기', '죽고 싶은 충동 억제하기', '종교에 의지하기'로 나타났는데, 농아노인들은 언어적 사회적 소수집단의 한계로 혜택 받지 못하는 가장 소외되고 취약한 계층에 있지만 현실에 맞게 스스로 적응하며 살아가기 위해 노력하고 있었다. 이런 결과에 의해 다음과 같이 제언하다. 첫째, 농아노인들이 마음속에 지워지지 않은 마음의 상처가 치유될 수 있는 개별 및 집단상담의 실천적 접근이 필요하다. 둘째, 농아노인들이 지역사회의 일원으로 살아가는데 불편이나 불이익이 없도록 공공서비스 기관에 수화도우미 배치 등 맞춤형 복지서비스가 필요하다. 셋째, 농아노인들이 가족으로부터 인정받고 지지받으며 정을 나누면서 살아 갈 수 있는 실천적 접근이 필요하다. 넷째, 청인들이 농아노인들의 문화를 이해하고 지역사회에서 더불어 살아갈 수 있도록 먼저 다가가 수화를 배우고 함께할 수 있는 장을 만들어가는 정책적 실천적 접근이 필요하다.
