The purpose of this study is to clarify the influence of parents' socio-economic resources on the class consciousness and life satisfaction of unmarried adult children living with their parents. Data from the 2^nd year (1999) and 22^nd year (2019) of the Korean Labor & Income Panel Study (KLIPS) were used. The study included individuals aged under 25-44 who were unmarried, lived with their parents, and had graduated out of final school. From the 2^nd year (1999), data for 491 people were extracted, and from the 22^nd year (2019), data for 978 people were extracted. The information on the fathers and mothers was obtained from the information on the households data, it was responded by the unmarried children. The main results are as follows. First, one of the characteristics of unmarried children living with their parents is that the average age was higher in 2019 than in 1999. Additionally, although they work and have their own income, they live in houses owned by their parents. Their levels of satisfaction with both the living environment and family relationships were high. It was found that the influence of parents' income increased in 2019 compared with 1999 in the class consciousness. As a factor that influences life satisfaction, the employment status of the father has a positive effect on the life satisfaction for men, whereas the employment status of the mother has a positive effect on the life satisfaction for women.

In this study, we investigated the effect of family values and the resource factors provided by parents on marriage intention among men and women in their 30s and 40s who have never married. The study participants were 300 never-married men and women in their 30s and 40s living in Seoul and its suburbs. The participants were chosen via purposive sampling. The study results are follows. First, according to the analysis of the subjects' family values and the resource factors provided by parents, both family values and the resource provided factors by parents showed higher scores than the median. Subjects had higher scores than the median score in regards to marriage intention, indicating that they had a greater intention to marry. Second, a multiple regression analysis was conducted to identify the effect of the socio-demographic characteristics of subjects, family values, and the resource factors provided by parents on marriage intention. As a result, age, the need of marriage and gender-role attitudes prevalent in family values, and the economic resources among the resource factors provided by parents had significant effects on marriage intention. Thus, the older the age of the subjects, the more traditional the view of marriage and gender-role attitudes, and the greater the amount of economic resources provided by parents, the greater the subjects' intention to marry.

Using a life course framework, we compare and contrast the processes of acculturation for first- and second-generation Korean immigrant fathers in the United States. In-depth life history interviews were conducted with 20 first-generation and 15 second-generation fathers in the Midwest. With a modified grounded theory approach of constant comparison, we first explored how these fathers developed their identities in the midst of cultural and social transitions. These men's identity construction was shaped by socio-economic statuses and accessibility to cultural resources, with a marked shift over time toward integration of Korean and American identities. We then examined how these identities informed the men's socialization of their children, and the children's socialization of their parents.

본 연구에서는 학업중단 청소년 자녀의 학교복귀 선택에 영향을 미치는 자원에 관해 살펴보고자 2013년부터 2017년까지의 총 5차년도 2,553명의 학업중단 청소년 패널 자료를 활용하였다. 2012년 7월 이후 정규 중·고등학교 학업중단 경험이 있는 청소년을 대상으로 학교복귀에 영향을 미치는 자원을 검증하기 위해 학업중단 청소년의 가족자원을 비롯하여 개인의 심리·정서자원 및 사회관계자원에 초점을 두고 분석하였다. 자료 분석 방법은 t-test와 교차분석, 위계적 로지스틱 회귀분석을 사용하였다. 본 연구의 주요 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 청소년 자녀의 학교복귀 선택에 영향을 주는 자원 중 인구사회학적 변인은 이사횟수였다. 둘째, 청소년 자녀들의 학교복귀에 영향을 미치는 심리·정서자원은 우울, 충동성과 함께 학업을 중단한 현재에 대한 긍정적 인식의 정도가 낮고 우리 사회가 학력에 대한 차별이 심하다고 지각하는 점이 학교복귀 선택에 작용하였다. 셋째, 가족자원으로는 가족형태와 부모애착의 하위요인 중 경제적 지지 측면이 유의미한 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 도움을 주는 사회관계자원으로서 멘토 여부가 사회자원으로 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구를 토대로 학업중단 청소년 자녀들의 학교복귀 선택에 영향을 미치는 긍정적 가족자원을 밝혀 학업중단 청소년 자녀를 둔 부모들에게 지지적인 가족자원의 방향성을 제시하였다는 점에서 의의가 있다.
