This research tried to present some basic data necessary to give effective support to urban retirees who already returned to the farm by looking into factors effecting on their adjustments to the lives before they returned to the farm and after they did so to know how well they adapt to the rural lives. For the purpose, we made a survey of 408 returners to the farm over the age of 50 for 6 days from October 18 to October 23 in 2004 using questionaires. The results show the followings. First, there are significant difference in the satisfaction with the rural life occurred by the sociological demographic changes according to 'health condition', 'subjective economic ability' and 'previous job'. Second, the difference of satisfaction with the rural lift which was taken place by the reasons before they moved to the farm is effected considerably by what made them decide to return to the farm first whether they prepared for it or not and how much money they have to do so. Therefore, to succeed in adjustment to the rural lives, their decision should be made by positive causes, they have to prepare concretely for it before they carry out their plans and they had better have enough money to move. Third, the difference of satisfaction with the rural life occurred by the reasons after they moved to the farm is effected by 'satisfaction with the forming information', 'the number of friends or neighbors', 'the frequency of meeting the friendly', 'the level of intimacy with neighbors' and 'their efforts to improve the relations with other residents'. And the sensitiveness to perceive the inconvenience according to the rural life is related strongly to the satisfaction with the rural life in the above 6 areas. Fourth, the repression analysis implemented to find how much the above 3 factors effect on the satisfaction with the rural life shows that it is 'returner's current health condition', 'farming education', 'farming fund' and 'effort to be intimate with other residents' that are very important.

본 연구는 은퇴 후 부부를 대상으로 여가활동 경험, 생성감, 자아통합감, 생활만족 간의 관계에서 구조적 관계를 밝히고 생성감과 자아통합감의 매개효과를 검증하는데 목적을 두고 있다. 연구방법은 SPSS for window 21.0프로그램과 AMOS 18.0을 이용하여 먼저 변인들 간의 관계를 알아보기 위하여 주요 변인들 간 상관분석을 실시하였다. 다음으로, 확인적 요인분석과 가설모형의 적합도를 확인하였다. 마지막으로 간접효과의 유의성을 검증하기 위하여 부트스트래핑 절차를 실시하였다. 본 연구에서 도출된 주요 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 여가활동 경험과 생활만족, 생성감, 자아통합감은 각각 정적 상관을 나타내었다. 둘째, 연구모형에서 은퇴 후 부부의 여가활동 경험과 생활만족에서 생성감 및 자아통합감이 이중매개효과가 있는 것으로 나타났고 은퇴 후 부부의 생활만족에 영향을 주는 직접효과보다 생성감과 자아통합감의 매개를 통해 생활만족에 영향을 주는 간접효과가 더 큰 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서는 은퇴 후 부부를 같이 조사한 것이 아니라 은퇴 경험이 있는 당사자나 은퇴한 남편을 둔 부인을 대상으로 자료를 수집함에 있어 한계가 있다. 이에 부부와 각자의 배우자가 생활만족을 느끼는 데 차이가 있고 이에 따른 변인 간의 경로 간 유의성에도 차이를 보일 수 있어 후속연구에서는 아내와 남편으로 해서 분석할 필요성이 있다.

본 연구는 신중년 구직자를 대상으로 사회적 지지와 삶의 만족도의 영향관계를 살펴보고 재취업욕구가 매개효과를 가지는지 검증하였다. 연구결과는 첫째, 사회적 지지와 삶의 만족도 관계는 유의미한 것으로 나타나 신중년의 삶의 만족도를 향상하기 위해서는 사회적 지지가 확대되어야 한다는 것을 확인할 수 있었고 둘째, 재취업욕구와 삶의 만족도의 관계에서 사회적지위 욕구, 자기실현 욕구, 여가선용 욕구가 유의미한 영향요인으로 나타났다. 일을 통해 삶의 만족도를 높이기 위해서는 자기실현 욕구가 충족되어야 하는 것을 알 수 있다. 셋째, 사회적 지지와 삶의 만족도 사이에서 자기실현, 사회적 지위, 여가선용이 부분 매개하는 것으로 확인되었다. 이와 같은 결과를 통해 신중년의 삶의 만족도 수준을 높이기 위해서는 재취업을 위한 경력설계 외에 지속적으로 정서적 지지를 위한 사회적 관계망을 구축하는 것이 중요하다는 것을 시사한다.

Objectives: The aims of this study are to examine the associations between marital satisfaction and life satisfaction among Korean retirees in later life and to test whether the degrees of associations increased over time. Method: Nationally representative Korean Longitudinal Study of Ageing data from wave 1 (in 2006) to wave 4 (in 2012) was utilized and retirees in later life (65-89 years old, N=402) were analyzed. Latent growth modeling (LGM) and model constraint were applied using Mplus 7.3. Age, sex, household income, subjective health, depressive symptoms and elapsed time after retirement were included as control variables. Results: Linear unconditional LGM fitted the data well and showed gradual decrease in life satisfaction. Conditional LGM revealed significant associations between marital satisfaction and life satisfaction from time 1 to time 4. According to model constraint test, the size of associations between marital satisfaction and life satisfaction did not change with time. Conclusions: To sum up these results, the associations between marital satisfaction and life satisfaction were significant and relatively stable over time among retirees in later life. This study suggests one's spouse is a fundamental component of social convoy among Korean retirees in later life. Therefore, intervention programs targeted toward enhancing marital relationships among retirees' couples will help them to live a better life.

본 연구는 생애사 연구로서 교직에서 은퇴한 유·초·중등의 남·여 교원의 삶을 통하여 은퇴의 의미와 적응과정을 탐색하여 교원 은퇴자들에게 개인적·사회적 필요가 무엇일지 알아보고자 하였다. 연구 결과, 어린 시절의 성장 경험과 학창 시절의 경험은 학생에게 선한 영향을 주거나 하지 말아야 할 행위의 한계를 설정하는데 기여하는 등, 오롯이 본인의 직업 수행에 영향을 준 것을 알 수 있었다. 상호의존의 시기에 단순 직업인을 넘어서 사회와 국가에 봉사하는 데에 기여하였고, 교직 후반기에는 아픈 경험이 자원이었고 '생각을 바꾸니 세상이 바뀌었다'는 표현으로 깨달음을 얻었다고 하였다. 교원이 미치는 행위의 영향이 다른 직업과 달리 다수의 대상에게 미친다는 점에서 교원 은퇴자들에게는 은퇴 전의 직업에 대한 보람이나 만족감이 다른 직종과 대비될 정도로 컸다. 그러나 은퇴 후에 교원 은퇴자들은 무한 자유에 행복을 느끼면서도 소속감과 성취감 없는 삶에 심리적인 공허함을 느꼈다. 그리고 새로운 공부에 도전하며 삶의 이모작을 위한 끊임없는 전진을 하고 있었다.

This study explores the effects of rural migrant characteristics and conjugal communication on life satisfaction of baby boomer rural migrants. A total of 205 Korean baby boomers, who are living in rural areas in the year of 2013 that had migrated from cities back in 2003 with their families, were analyzed. Their age ranged from 49 to 57 years. The statistical methods used for data analysis were descriptive statistics, t-test, and hierarchical regression analysis, with SPSS Win 20.0 program. The results of this study are summarized as follows: the reasons these baby boomers chose a rural lifestyle were 'for life after retirement,' 'because rural life is good,' 'for health reasons,' and 'for chosen profession.' The level of conjugal communication (M=3.69) and life satisfaction (M=3.23) were higher than average (M=3.0). The variables influencing life satisfaction of baby boomer rural migrants were 'increased property size,' 'better conjugal communication,' 'better health condition,' 'lower levels of money,' and 'length of time spent farming.' Furthermore, in terms of life satisfaction, the relative contributions of these variables are as follows: general characteristics 20%, rural migrant characteristics 10%, and the level of conjugal communication 6%. These results show that conjugal communication is a very important variable, as well as a rural migrant characteristic when it comes to life satisfaction of these baby boomers. Therefore, to improve life satisfaction of baby boomer rural migrants, support programs need to focus on both farming and conjugal relationships.

본 연구의 목적은 베이비붐 세대를 대상으로 노후 사회참여 의향 예측요인을 파악하는데 있다. 이를 위해 성별과 거주지에 따른 할당표본을 한 강현정(2012)의 데이터 1115부를 분석에 이용하였다. 첫째, 현재의 사회참여는 경제활동 77.7%, 자원봉사활동 27.0%, 여가활동 79.3%로 경제활동과 여가활동에 비해 자원봉사활동에의 참여가 상당히 낮았다. 그러나 노후 사회참여 의향은 경제활동 80.9%, 자원봉사활동 76.7%, 여가활동 82.2%로 고른 분포를 보였다. 둘째, 현재 사회참여를 하는 베이비붐 세대는 노후에도 사회참여를 하려는 의향이 높았다. 그런데 현재는 사회참여를 하지 않으나 노후에는 사회참여를 하고자 하는 베이비붐 세대가 경제활동의 경우에는 55.8%, 자원봉사활동의 경우에는 70.6%, 여가활동의 경우에는 66.5%였다. 셋째, 현재 사회참여여부가 노후 사회참여 의향의 가장 강력한 예측변인이었다. 이러한 결과를 지속성의 이론의 관점에서 논의하였으며, 노후 삶의 만족도에 중요 변수로 알려진 사회참여를 활성화시키기 위해서는 중년기부터의 준비가 필요하다는 점을 제안하였다.

Purpose: This study aims to develop a shared forest walking program and verify its effects on self-esteem, life satisfaction, and depression among older adults living alone in rural communities. Methods: Participants were assigned to an experimental or a control group, with 20 participants each. Data collected during August 1~3, 2022, before the program, and October 29~31, 2022, after the program. In this study, the shared forest walking program was conducted twice a week for a total of 24 sessions, with each session lasting one hour. All data were analyzed using SPSS version 18.0, x² tests, and t-tests. Results: The experimental group participating in the sharing forest walking program showed higher self-esteem and life satisfaction than the control group, along with a decrease in depression. Additionally, there were statistically significant differences in self-esteem (t=5.97, p<.001), life satisfaction (t=7.78, p<.001), and depression (t=-7.58, p<.001). Conclusion: The shared forest walking program, developed based on the results of this study, improved self-esteem and; life satisfaction; and reduced depression among older adults living alone in rural communities. We propose the development of a continuous program to assist older adults living alone in underprivileged rural areas to experience retirement with reduced depression, increased self-esteem, and enhanced life satisfaction.
