Purpose: This study was conducted to identify unmet healthcare needs among man and woman one-person households and to explore related factors by gender. Methods: Data were drawn from the 2017 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. The final sample consisted of 820 one-person households. The statistical analysis, conducted in SPSS version 20.1, included complex sampling analysis; descriptive statistics, the chi-square test, and logistic regression. Results: The demographic and socioeconomic characteristics of women in one-person households were significantly different from those of men in one-person households. Women in single-person households were mainly in their 70s or older and married, and they tended to have a low education level, low income, and no formal occupation. Unmet healthcare needs were experienced by 17.3% of women in one-person households and 13.5% of men in one-person households, which was not a statistically significant difference (χ²=2.17, p=.139). Factors related to unmet healthcare needs were subjective health status and unmet dental care needs in single-person-household men. By contrast, having experienced impairment within the past year, stress, and unmet dental care needs were factors related to unmet healthcare needs in single-person-household women. Conclusion: As one-person households become increasingly common, more attention needs to be paid to them and our understanding of them needs to be improved. Women in one-person households, in particular, are especially vulnerable, as they experience more unmet healthcare needs.

This study aims to examine the general tendency of suicidal ideation in single person households and to analyse the differences and effects of related variables(sociodemographic variables, characteristics of single person households, happiness and depression) on suicidal ideation. For achieving these purposes, a survey was conducted using questionnaires, based on quota sampling that considers the distribution of population in each dong of one Gu in Gwangju. Finally, data of 686 single person households were used for analysis. The study findings were as follows. The average score of suicidal ideation in single person households was 6.47 points, it was somewhat higher as compared to prior research that was targeting general households. And the average score of happiness index was 4.17 points, depression was 33.11 points. The level of suicidal ideation in single person households was significantly different according to age, occupation, economic status, health status, period of single life, life satisfaction, and contact with family. In addition, the level of depression(${\beta}=.24$, p<.01) had the biggest effect on suicidal ideation in single person households and it was followed by happiness index(${\beta}=-.19$, p<.05) and family visit(${\beta}=-.15$, p<.05). The total explanatory power was 37%. These findings imply that it is important to find a high mental health risk group and treat it early, because there is a high possibility that single person households might have mental health problems by being isolated or alienated from society. In addition, diverse program and services designed to maintain familial bonds despite family members living separately are needed.

The purpose of the study was to examine the characteristics and economic status of deficit households. The data for this study were from The Household Income and Expenditure Survey in 2000, 2005, and 2010 conducted by the National Statistics Office (NSO). Deficit households were defined by those who had expenditures higher than their income. Among total households, the proportion of deficit households was 26.84% in 2000, 28.14% in 2005, and 27.15% in 2010. The average propensity to consume was 132.1 in 2005, which was higher than those in 2000 and 2010. Deficit households were classified into five types using cluster analysis: 1)overall-overconsumption group(33.07%), 2)basic needs group(26.33%), 3)transportation expenditure-dominated group(6.73%), 4)education expenditure-dominated group(27.63%), 5)health care expenditure-dominated group(6.24%). The overall-overconsumption group was the largest group of total households and the portion of this group among total households decreased by 4.97%p from 2005 to 2010. However, the education expenditure-dominated group increased by approximately 7.6%p over the period. It was also found that households in 2000 and 2010 were more likely to be in all five groups than households in 2005. Other major determinants of households with deficit were gender, age, number of family members, education level, dual income, home ownership, vehicle ownership, and income class.

Considering that the number of middle-aged single-person households is increasing, this study investigates dietary behaviors, nutrient intake, and mental health according to household type. Data were procured from the 2015-2019 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES). Totally, 5,466 participants aged 50-64 years were classified into 2 groups: a household with one member was defined as a single-person household, and households with two or more members were described as multi-person households. Single-person households comprised 10.63% of the total, with a higher average age, and lower income and economic levels than multi-person households. Compared to multi-person households, single-person households had a higher frequency of skipping breakfast, eating alone, and dining out, the moderately and severely food insecure group was more than 5 times, and nutrient intake and dietary quality were poorer. In the fully adjusted model, the odds ratios (ORs) of depressive symptoms were 2.35 times (95% CI: 1.39-3.96), and suicide ideation was 1.95 times (95% CI: 1.35-2.82) in single-person compared to multi-person households. Our results lead us to conclude that poor dietary intake in middle-aged single-person households affects the mental health, and the above factors should be considered when framing the dietary policy.

본 연구는 과거 혼인경험과 관계없이 중년 무배우남성을 1인가구와 다인가구로 구분하여 인적자본과 사회자본의 차이를 살펴보고 생활만족도에 영향을 미치는 효과를 비교하였다. 제13차년도 한국복지패널조사(2018)를 사용하여 중년 무배우남성을 연구대상으로 분석하였다. 주요 분석결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 중년 무배우남성 1인가구는 이들의 혼인상태와 관계없이 교육수준, 경제활동상태, 인터넷사용 등 인적자본 수준은 다인가구보다 낮았다. 둘째, 중년 무배우남성의 가구주 여부에 따른 인적자본과 사회자본 수준의 차이를 보면, 이혼·사별 경험이 있는 다인가구인 비가구주 중년남성은 1인가구에 비해 사회자본의 수준이 현저히 낮았다. 미혼의 경우, 1인가구에 비해 비가구주 중년남성의 미취업 비율은 높고 상용근로 비율은 낮았다. 셋째, 혼인상태에 따른 중년 무배우남성의 생활만족도에 미치는 인적자본과 사회자본의 효과를 분석한 결과, 인적자본변수 중 경제활동상태는 이혼·사별집단에서 1인가구와 다인가구에 공통으로 영향을 주었다. 사회자본의 효과를 보면 미혼집단에서 1인가구와 다인가구 모두 유대수준이 높을수록, 다인가구에서 신뢰가 높은 집단이 신뢰가 낮은 집단에 비해 생활만족도에 긍정적 효과를 주었다. 이혼·사별집단에서는 1인가구에서 자원봉사참여가, 다인가구에서는 신뢰가 생활만족도에 유의한 사회자본 변수로 나타났다. 최근 한국사회에서 1인가구를 대상으로 하는 특화된 프로그램이 건강가정지원센터를 비롯한 지역사회에서 강화되고 있는데, 향후 중년 대상 프로그램의 경우에는 1인가구라는 가구의 형태보다 오히려 이용자 요구에 초점을 맞추어 1인가구로 한정하지 않는 것이 다인가구임에도 소외되기 쉬운 중년 무배우남성의 정책접근성을 높일 것으로 기대된다.

The main purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between financial management behavior and subjective level of consumption of rural households. In this study, financial management behavior was defined to include 'budgeting' and 'expenditure management'. Data were collected from the 215 rural households in 13 different provinces of Chungnam, and 203 households were used for the analysis. Frequency distribution, means, and path analysis were employed for the statistical analysis. Major findings were as follows. Budgeting behavior had a significant positive effect on rural households' subjective level of consumption, while expenditure management behavior didn't have any significant effect. This implies that active and systematic financial management behavior such as budgeting is more effective than relatively passive financial management behavior like expenditure management on the enhancement of economic well-being of rural households. Age, education, and number of non-farm earners had indirect effects on the subjective level of consumption through budgeting behavior. Income stability had a direct effect and income had both direct and indirect effects on the subjective level of consumption.

The purpose of this study was to examine the usefulness of financial ratios as comparison analysis of households financial status. Two household types were discussed such as earner and self-employed. Financial ratios were developed for 2739 households for earners and 2147 households for self-employed using. Korean Household Panel Study from Daewoo Economic Research Center. Descriptive Statistics were used to analyze the financial ratios and seven different finantial ratios were utilized to compare the fiancial status of two different households type. Easers have more average income and net-assets than self-employed. However, using financial ratios, it was found that self-employed households were more stable than easer. The resets shows that the financial ratio analysis gives better tool to estimate households'financial status. Implications for financial educators, counselors, and planners are offered.
