Purpose: This study examines the health behavior and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) among married men and women, utilizing data from the Korean National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey, encompassing 4,217 subjects. Methods: A multiple regression model was employed to analyze the data. Results: Married men demonstrated a significantly good relationship between HRQOL and perceived health state (β=.32, p<.001), while married women showed a similar relationship with perceived health state (β=.38, p<.001). Additionally, married men demonstrated significantly neutral relationship between HRQOL and perceived health state (β=.30, p<.001), as did the married women (β=.38, p<.001). Both married men (β=-.11, p<.001) and married women (β=-.08, p<.001) were found to experience depression. oreover, the HRQOL in married men was positively associated with private health insurance (β=.08, p=.001), and the same trend was observed in married women (β=.10, p<.001). Married men with unmet medical needs showed a negative association with HRQOL (β=-.08, p<.001), and married women with unmet medical needs showed a similar negative association (β=-.12, p<.001). Furthermore, outpatient medical use(2 weeks) was negatively associated with HRQOL in both married men (β=-.07, p=.001) and married women (β=-.07, p<.001). Moreover, married women displayed a significant negative association between HRQOL and the prevalence of obesity(β=-.04, p=.048) and stress (β=-.05, p=.009) and a positive association with aerobic exercise (β=.04, p=.027). Conclusions: This study suggests that health behavior significantly influences the HRQOL among married men and women. The findings of this study can guide policymakers in developing strategies to improve health behavior and HRQOL within households.

본 연구는 탈관습적인 '불륜' 을 주제로 하는 불륜 드라마의 공급과 소비의 증가에 주목하면서, 기혼 남녀의 성적 사회화에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 불륜 드라마에 대한 기혼 남녀의 문제의식과 관련요인을 밝힌 실증연구이다. 본 연구는 기혼 남녀의 '불륜 드라마 비판의식 유무' 에 부부간 성적 자기결정권, 개인 심리특성(정서적 성숙, 정서적 소외감, 자기지각), 주변의 환경적 특성(혼외관계 만연성), 그리고 인구사회학적 배경(성별, 연령, 학력, 경제수준) 등을 미치는 영향을 파악하였다. 기혼남녀(614명)를 대상으로 온라인 설문조사를 실시하여 얻은 자료를, SPSS를 이용하여 이항 로지스틱 분석(binary logistic analysis)을 실시하였다. 자료 분석 결과 밝혀진 내용은, 첫째, 불륜 드라마에 대해 비교적 양호한 수준의 비판의식을 가진 기혼 남녀는 46%이며, 전반적으로 불륜 드라마에 대한 기혼 남녀의 비판의식 수준은 다소 저조한 편이다. 둘째, '지나친 불륜미화', '불륜(외도)를 부추김', '가정의 가치훼손' 등의 문제점에 대한 인식에서는 성별 간에 유의한 차이가 없었지만, '노골적 성적묘사' 에 관해서는 남성보다 여성이 훨씬 비판적인 성별특성에 따른 차이점이 발견되었다. 셋째, 기혼 남성들은 '자기지각' 과 '부부간 성적 자기결정권' 이, 기혼 여성의 경우에는 '부부간 성적 자기결정권' 과 '정서적 소외' 가 각각 불륜 드라마 비판의식 유무에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 밝혀졌다.
