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.

본 연구는 노년기 거주형태의 변화 궤적에 따른 삶의 만족도와의 관계를 종단데이터의 분석을 통해 살펴보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 본 연구는 국민노후보장패널 1-4차년도(2005-2011) 자료를 활용, 1-4차년도 조사당시 거주형태를 측정, 두 시점간 거주형태 변화 유형을 16개 유형으로 구분, 일반화추정방정식모형(Generalized Estimation Equation; GEE)을 적용해 삶의 만족도 차이를 분석하였다. 연구 결과 노년기 거주형태 변화는 삶의 만족도와 관련이 있었다. 전반적으로 마지막 조사시점에서 부부상태를 유지했던 집단의 삶의 만족도 수준이 높았다. 또한 노년기 자녀와의 동거여부는 삶의 만족도에 직접적으로 중요한 요인이 아닌 것으로 나타났다. 본 조사결과 자녀와의 동거는 부부가 함께 동거였을 경우에만 삶의 만족도 수준이 높았을 뿐 홀로 자녀와 동거하는 가구의 경우 독거를 지속한 가구보다도 오히려 삶의 만족도 수준이 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 노년기 거주형태 변화의 궤적과 대표적 심리적 복지 개념인 삶의 만족도의 관계를 분석한 본 연구는 노년기 거주형태 변화 차이가 삶의 만족도에 미치는 영향력을 종단자료 분석을 통해 실증적으로 제시했다는 점에서 의의를 찾을 수 있다.

This study aims to analyze the trend of changes in the elderly living arrangement over the past 20 years and the reasons why the elderly choose these changes. The subjects of the survey were households aged 65 years or older in Korea. Data from the survey of Ministry of Health and Welfare conducted in 2004, 2014, 2020 were used for the analysis. The result of analysis was as follows; First, since 2000, the number of elderly households living with their children has been rapidly decreasing, while the number of elderly couple households and single elderly households is gradually increasing. Second, elderly living alone appeared more in rural areas, women, older people, and elderly with low education. They are in a vulnerable position that needs help. Therefore, welfare policies for the elderly should be focused on elderly single households. Finally the reason for choosing elderly single household in 2020 was that the voluntary choice by the individual accounted for a much higher rate than the unintentional choice by the children. In addition, the life satisfaction of the elderly who arbitrarily selected the living arrangement was higher than that of the elderly who deliberately chose the living arrangement.

본 연구의 목적은 노년기에 경험하는 다양한 거주형태 변화와 그 정도를 파악하고, 노인거주형태별 영향요인을 검증하는데 있다. 조사대상자는 한림대학교 고령사회연구소의 고령자패널조사 자료 중 2003년과 2009년 조사에 모두 참여한 60세 이상 유자녀 노인 825명이다. 분석 방법은 T2(2009년)의 거주형태를 종속변수로, T1(2003년)의 인구사회학적 변인, 신체적 정신적 건강상태, 문화적 변인을 독립변수로 하여 이항로지스틱 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과로 첫째, 2003~2009년 6년 동안 거주형태 변화를 경험한 노인이 29.82%에 달해 노년기 거주형태가 매우 불안정한 것으로 파악되었다. 둘째, 노인 거주형태를 결정하는 주요 요인으로 성별, 연령, 배우자유무, 주택소유여부, 주관적 건강상태, 심리적 안녕감, 부양책임감 등이 도출되었으며, 각 거주형태별로 영향요인이 다르게 나타났다. 제언으로 노년기 거주형태의 변화가 매우 크고 다양하게 이루어지는 만큼 반복적이고 지속적인 연구가 진행되어야 함을 제시하였다.

Preferences on living arrangement and residence of the elderly depend on various changing factors as they get old. Among those factors, predictable and crucial factors are the condition of their health and spouse. Thus, this study is focused on living arrangement and the residential preference of the elderly according to their health and existence of a spouse. A sample of 500 elderly aged over 65 is analyzed by $x^2$ test, and multiple logistic regression. The results could be summarized as follows; First, 45.2% of the elderly who participated in this survey prefer 'living apart from their children but living close by'. And 19.8% of the elderly want to 'live with their children'. Second, the elderly with a spouse and the elderly who live apart from their children tend to prefer living independently. Third, the elderly with good health living in single-family houses and the elderly with high self-esteem tend to prefer the residential facilities for the elderly. Fourth, the elderly with health problems who have generous allowances and live in a city tend to prefer the residential facilities for the elderly. Fifth, factors such as gender, age, condition of health, allowances, living regions, type of house, self-esteem influence residential preferences of the elderly without a spouse.

Purpose: This study was done to identify differences in health habits, perceived stress, depression, and suicidal thinking by gender for elderly people who are living alone and elderly people who are living with others. Method: The study participants were 4,051 people aged 65 years and over who were surveyed in the Third Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in 2005. The relationship among outcomes and living arrangement by gender in elders was assessed using multiple logistic regression while controlling for sociodemographic characteristics. Results: Older men living alone were less likely to have breakfast and more likely to perceive stress and think of suicide than older men living with family or others. On the other hand, older women who live alone were less likely to perceive stress than older women who live with others. Age, educational level, income, and number of diseases were significantly associated with each individual outcome. Conclusion: This study showed that living alone has a significant impact on physical health habits and psychological health of elderly people, especially for older men. Therefore, living arrangement should be considered in developing a health promotion program for elders as well as age, gender, education, and income.

This study has been performed to analyze living arrangement in later life. In this study, 276 Koreans aged 60 or more were interviewed for their current household structure. The results are drawn as follows: 1. Of all the households with at least one person aged 60 or more, those living in three generations account for the largest proportion, 39.9 percent. For the regional difference, the rate was slightly higher in urban areas than in rural areas. 2. 48.7% of the subjects living in owned homes were households with elderly only, but only 23% of those living in rented homes are elderly only. Overall, the rate of elderly-only households becomes the highest for those living in owned single structure homes. This result indicates that the elderly with higher economic status are more likely to live without children than others. 3. As for birth order, those who grew up as the first child are most likely to live in elderly-only households, while others are in three generation homes. 4. The elderly with few children are more likely to live independently than those with many children, not because they are without dependable children, but because spend less resource for childbearing and therefore are more independent. 5. Overall in this, it is supported that socioeconomic status and independability are more influential factors on living arrangement of the elderly than regional or emotional factors.
