This study focuses on changes in a father's role from one that is work-centered to a work-family balance, analyzing the type of father's work-family reconciliation and to compare the differences among the types. An online survey was conducted with 1,037 fathers of school-aged children. The survey subjects were assigned to a ratio of 1:2:1:1 for fathers who have a child in kindergarten, elementary school, middle school and high school. The fathers' work-family reconciliation type was a variable composed of three categories: work-centered, family-centered, and work-family centered. In the research model of this study, the fathers' work-family reconciliation type was influenced by family characteristics(the age of first child, the number of children, dual earner, and spouse support) and work characteristics(weekly working hours, work flexibility, and leaving work on time). We analyzed characteristics of work-family reconciliation through housework time, child care time, leisure time, family meals, and time spend talking with their children. The results showed that father's work-family reconciliation type was significantly different according to the characteristics such as first child age and spouse support, work characteristics such as weekly working hours and leaving work on time. The time distribution differed significantly depending on the father's work-family reconciliation type. Therefore, a fathers' work-family reconciliation can be considered typified by the interaction of family and work characteristics. This study suggests policy implications for supporting fathers' work-family reconciliation.

본 연구는 남성 돌봄 노동참여 지원정책을 통해 경제협력개발기구 국가들을 유형화함으로써 세 가지 주목할 만한 결과를 도출하였다. 첫째, 남성 돌봄 노동참여 정책의 지원수준과 전통적 주 생계부양자 모형의 강도를 통해 OECD 15개국을 5개의 유형으로 구분하였다. 이러한 유형화는 탈상품화를 중심으로 복지체제를 유명화한 주류 복지국가의 분석과 달리 남성의 노동력의 가족화와 탈상품화를 준거로 분석했을 때 새로운 유형화의 가능성을 제시하였다는 점이다. 둘째, 합계출산율, 여성의 경제활동 참가율 지표에서 남성의 돌봄 노동참여 지원 수준이 높고, 전통적 주 생계부양자가구의 비율이 낮은 국가군일수록 합계출산율과 여성의 경제활동 참가율이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 한국의 남성에 대한 돌봄 노동참여 지원 정책의 수준은 OECD 국가 중 가장 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 돌봄 노동에 대한 낮은 수준의 성간 공유가 결국 한국 여성의 낮은 경제활동 참가율, 저출산 현상을 설명하는 하나의 주요한 요인이 될 수 있다는 것이다.

The purpose of this study is to provide diverse points of view to understand the low fertility issue of Korean society. For this phenomenological qualitative study, in-depth interviews were conducted with 14 married couples(28 persons) all raising three children. Participants were asked about overall family and work life, child care role performance, thoughts about child rearing, and their sociocultural context. Interview data were explored based on 6 analyzing steps offered by S, J, Talyor and R. Bogdan(1984). Most participants of this study were formed positive perceptions about having three children. Parents' positive perception was closely related with their attitude of not worrying too much about their children's future as well as child caring contexts around them. Parents' perception about having three children was also linked with their child care role construction process. In detail, parents with more positive perceptions tended to increase their level of child care involvement. This was particularly true for fathers. Mother and father's job situation emerged as an important factor to shape their child care involvement. In addition, child care attitude of people around them explained father's child care involvement. Applying these qualitative results, we first expect to provide detailed ideas about lives with three children in Korea. Second, based on our study findings, a more realistic and helpful policy to help the low fertility problem could be developed. Lastly, we also hope to provide helpful phenomenological qualitative research about low fertility issues of Korea.

본 연구는 양성평등사회가 진행되는 과정에서 가정과 교과서에 제시된 아버지 역할이 어떻게 변화해 왔는지를 파악하여, 양성평등 관점에서 아버지 역할의 기준 마련을 위한 기초 자료를 제공하는 데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위해, 가정과 교과서 본문과 사진 및 삽화에 나타난 아버지 역할을 검토하였다. 이를 위해, 제1차부터 2007 개정까지의 교육과정에 기초하여 집필된 고등학교 가정과 교과서 총34권을 분석 대상으로, 교과서 본문과 보충자료, 그리고 사진 및 삽화에 대한 내용분석과 계량분석을 하였다. 이를 통해 얻어진 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 제1차~3차 교육과정에 기초한 가정과 교과서에서는 전통적 아버지의 역할만 서술되고 있었으며, 사진과 삽화에서도 구체적인 아버지의 역할은 보이지 않았다. 둘째, 제4차~5차 교육과정에 기초한 가정과 교과서에서는 가사 분담을 하는 아버지의 모습이 등장하는 등 아버지 역할에 변화가 시작되었다. 셋째, 제6차 교육과정에 기초한 교과서에서의 아버지는 자녀 양육의 공동책임자로, 육아와 가사 분담에 보다 적극적인 역할이 제시되고 있었다. 넷째, 제7차~2007 개정 교육과정에 기초한 가정과 교과서에의 아버지는 양육의 역할이 강조되어 제시되고 있었다. 특히, 양성평등사회를 더욱 지향하기 위해 아버지의 가사, 일 우선 사고의 시정, 양성평등 관련 내용 등 다양한 내용이 제시되었다. 이상의 결과를 통해, 가정과 교과서에서는 양성평등 관련 내용이나 양성평등 관점의 아버지 역할 내용 서술은 꾸준히 증가되고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 여전히 가정 내 아버지 역할에서 성 역할 분업의 혼재, 사회 요구에 대해 임시방편적인 반응 모습 등 문제점이 남아 있었다. 이의 개선을 위해 가정과교육 전공자 및 가족생활교육 전공자의 공론의 장이 마련될 필요가 있다.

This study attempted to assess the durability of the trend in increasing childcare time and to get some clues based on research findings to make efficient policy interventions in case there is a need to continue or reverse course for such trend. In doing so, a total of 9,668 diaries from the 2004, 2009, and 2014 Korean Time Use Survey were analyzed targeting parents with a preschooler as their eldest child. Parental time was regressed on parents' weekly work hours, mother's relative income, parents' education and gender role attitudes. Furthermore, increase in parental childcare time was decomposed into parts that were attributable to differences in the means and slopes of associated factors. Analytic results revealed that; parents' weekly work hours were associated with time spent on childcare from 2004 to 2014; the negative relationship between mother's relative earnings and her childcare time in 2004 and 2009 was reversed to a positive one in 2014; parent's education had stronger positive effects on father's than on mother's childcare time; parents' gender role attitudes had a weak association with childcare time; social and cultural changes such as decrease in work hours, higher education, more egalitarian gender role attitudes, and rise in women's wages contributed to the increase in parental childcare time, but in a different way for mothers and fathers. By taking into account the social and cultural context behind the changes, this study is able to provide a more constructive implications for childcare policy in Korea.
