Postponing childbirth is becoming increasingly common and consequently serious social problem in Korea, among married-working women. It is relatively unknown which factors determine married-working women's childbirth intention. This study investigated the effects of demographical factors, labor market factors and social support factors on married-working women's childbirth intention. Data from a national survey of married-working women (Korean longitudinal survey of women and families) are used in this study. The findings are as follows. First, logistic regression analyses that married-working women's childbirth intention could be predicted by 1) personal characteristic factors such as age (p <.000), education level (p<.029), parenthood (p<.000) monthly pay (p<.01); 2) husband support factors, such as satisfaction with division of household labor (p<.009), time with family (p<.049) influence of family life on work (p<.083); and 3) institutional support factors such as regular position (p<.015), regression analysis showed similar results. Personal characteristic factors and husband support factors had statistically significant effects on the number of future children. Personal value factors such as traditional family support (p<.05) proved to be the best predictor of the number of future children. Institutional support factors, on the other hand, did not have statistically significant effect on the number of future children. In a nutshell, personal characteristics and husband support proved to be the most important determinant of married-working women's childbirth intention. The findings suggest that family friendly policy and flexible labor market policy will impact married-working women's childbirth intention.

본 연구는 사회복지사의 개인요인인 심리적 자본과 환경요인인 배우자의 직장생활지지 및 조직의 가족친화적 직장문화가 일-삶 균형에 미치는 영향을 검증하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 충청북도의 이용시설에 근무하는 기혼 사회복지사를 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였으며, 회수된 331부를 분석에 활용하였다. 개인 및 환경요인이 일-삶 균형에 미치는 영향을 살펴보기 위해 회귀분석을 실시한 결과 심리적 자본의 하위요인인 회복탄력성과 낙관주의, 배우자의 직장생활지지, 가족친화적 직장문화의 하위요인인 근무시간 기대가 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 성별과 연령에 따른 영향 요인 비교결과 각 대상별 일-삶 영향요인이 일부 상이함을 발견하였다. 이러한 연구결과를 바탕으로 사회복지사의 일-삶 균형 증진을 위하여 일-삶 균형의 필요성 등에 대한 교육과정 개설, 자기-돌봄 교육프로그램의 개발, 일-삶 균형 제도 도입 및 실천의 현실적 방안 마련 등 인식개선 및 근로환경의 개선이 필요함을 제안하였다.

Objectives: This study aims to identify self-resilience factors that drive right dietary and food safety practices in middle school students. Methods: Data was collected from 438 middle school students in Daegu using a self-administered questionnaire in December, 2013. The questionnaire consisted of 81 items with the following categories: general information, self-resilience, right dietary and food safety practices. Statistical analyses to determine frequency, average, ANOVA, factor analysis, reliability analysis, and regression analysis were performed using SPSS 21. Results: The results of factor analysis indicated that self-resilience was classified into challenge, adaptability, patience and achievement needs, and right dietary practices were sub-grouped into family meals, experience of dietary life, eco-friendly, balanced food, economy and bad food control, and food safety practices consisted of management of bacteria, hand washing and eating off a plate, safety food and food purchasing. The score of right dietary and food safety practices showed significant differences by sex, grade, and school achievement (p < 0.05). The economy factor of right dietary practices was significantly affected by the management of bacteria (p < 0.001), hand washing and eating off a plate (p < 0.001), safety food (p < 0.01), food purchasing of food safety practices (p < 0.05). The challenge factor of self-resilience significantly affected family meals, experience of dietary life, balanced food, economy, bad food control, management of bacteria, hand washing and eating off a plate, and safety food (p < 0.05). The adaptability factor of self-resilience was associated with factors such as eco-friendly, balanced food, economy, bad food control, management of bacteria, hand washing and eating off a plate, and food purchasing (p < 0.05). Conclusions: This study suggests that dietary education programs for middle school students could incorporate food safety practices, and self-resilience such as challenge, adaptability, patience and achievement needs to be effective.

본 연구는 인구조사 통계자료를 이용하여 개인적, 가족적, 사회적 요인들이 부산광역시의 지속적인 낮은 출산율과 어떻게 관련되어 있는지 살펴보며, 출산율을 높이기 위한 가족친화환경조성에 관한 정책들도 제시하고자 하였다. 최근 몇 년간 부산광역시의 출산율은 전국의 광역시도 중 가장 최저로 나타났으며 부산지역의 특징을 보여주고 있다. 출산율은 만혼 및 임신의 고령화, 혼인율 감소, 높은 이혼율, 미혼여성들의 결혼기피현상, 남성들의 전통적 성역할태도, 맞벌이 남성들의 저조한 가사분담참여, 낮은 결혼만족도와 가족생활만족도, 높은 낙태율과 같은 복합적인 가족학적 요인들과 가족정책, 자녀양육시설의 이용가능성, 교육비 및 사회와 기업의 가족친화 수준과 같은 보다 광의의 특성들 때문에 낮게 나타난다. 부산 여성들은 전통적 성역할 규범과 관습이 유지되는 사회 환경에서 맞벌이를 하는 경우에도 과중한 가사노동을 수행하고 있었고, 부부의 결혼만족도도 전국평균보다 낮았는데 부인의 결혼만족도는 남편에 비해 전국평균보다 더욱 낮게 나타났다. 부산광역시의 출산율 향상을 위하여 이 요인들의 시사점들과 가족 친화적 정책제안들도 8가지 측면에서 논의되었다.

Second, the aspects of professional quality, diversity, and systematic management were mentioned as the strengths of programs in the Healthy Families Support Centers. Third, three program models were drawn up, as follows: The first model was a five-part program model like the current program settings of the Healthy Families Center. Those were sharing-caring, education, counselling, family-friendly culture, and community networking. The second model was a program for family relationships. The third was for joining programs with others.

Baby boomers are often defined by their support of their parents and their devotion to their children's educational success by providing financial and emotional aids. Now, 7.12 million baby boomers in South Korea are retiring, or are about to retire, without any retirement plans. Similar to financial stability, health, and leisure life, social capital is another important element in the quality life after retirement. This is because social capital can function as a potential resource network. Social capital is a source that provides money, information, goods, services, emotional aids, social relational opportunities etc. In the past, family and community provided social capital for the aged. However, the baby boomer generation cannot expect the same. The baby boomers have the task of creating new social capital that can assure their quality of life. Therefore, this study examines cohort characteristics of the baby boomer generation and, based on the examination, seeks an alternative for social capital. The results are as follows: First, social capital from the local community can be an alternative source of caring for the baby boomers in old age. Second, among the social capital of the local community, elderly care supported by a family friendly community is proposed. In addition, baby boomers must become the primary social capital that contributes to a mature civil society rather than a beneficiary of welfare for the aged.

The survey was conducted to investigate the perception and purchase behaviors regarding environment-friendly agricultural products (EFAP). 353 questionnaires were collected from college students in Daejeon and analyzed using SPSS 21.0. The students recognized EFAP as foods containing less or no agricultural pesticides and chemical fertilizers. More food major students knew the definition of EFAP compared to non-food major students (p<0.05). The students discriminated EFAP based on certificat on label and obtained information about EFAP from TV/home shopping. More non-food major students purchased EFAP than food major students (p<0.001). The main reason for hesitation with EFAP purchases was the high price. However, students purchased EFAP because of their family's safety. Price reduction is the most important factor to promote the consumption of EFAP. Proper education programs are required so that college students can easily purchase EFAP to promote safe and healthy dietary habits.

This study randomly targeted 428 adult consumers in Seoul (219) and Beijing (209) to grasp the demand of customer education and a purchasing intention for fair trade products. The results of this study are as follows. First, participants showed a low cognition of fair trade and purchase intention, while consumer demand for fair trade education on concept, campaign and effect had a comparatively higher level. Chinese consumers showed a higher level of purchase intention, but a lower level of consumer education demand for fair trade concepts. Second, a higher education level resulted in a higher cognition of fair trade by Korean consumers and more experienced Chinese consumers had a higher cognition. Third, the cognition of fair trade affected the purchase intentions positively for both in Korean and Chinese consumers. Finally, cognition and purchase intention showed positive effects of the consumer demand for fair trade education on concept, campaign, and effect.
