Korea is moving toward an aging society faster than the other advance countries such as the U.S. and France. Such aging phenomena are posing greater problems in rural areas than in urban areas, and particularly, decrease in productivity caused by aging population leads to economic difficulties and hinders the improvement of housing life. The purpose of this research is to examine and identify the housing conditions of the vulnerable in rural areas and to present ways to improve the elderly housing and the housing environment in rural areas and to provide basic data for materializing the policies to enhance the quality of life. The results of this research are as follows. First, the elderly in rural areas were found to receive relatively smooth supports for services related to clothing and food through the government and social organizations. But for the housing problems, it was found that there were not any supports. Second, the poor housing environment may cause diseases to the elderly with weak immunity, so ways to remedy these problems are urgently needed. Third, the vulnerable in rural areas can hardly bear the burden of improving the housing environment, so supports from the government and social organizations are needed. Fourth, ways to support the vulnerable such as households receiving basic living subsidies and to support the poor who are not receiving such subsidies should be explored.

The analysis employed a sample of 764 elderly individuals residing in rural area. Data were analyzed through descriptive statistics, a chi-square test, a t-test, and a multiple regression analysis. First, the respondents reported moderate life satisfaction. Those respondents living alone were less likely to report life satisfaction than those with a spouse. Second, the respondents were more likely to be in contact with their neighbors than their adult children. Third, the respondents were more likely to receive social support from adult children than provide it to them. By contrast, the respondents were more likely to provide social support to neighbors than receive it from them. Fourth, economic status and contact with adult children and neighbors had signigicant effects on the life satisfaction of the respondents.

Aging rate of rural area in our country is relatively high compared to that of the urban area. Thus, the introduction of meal service for the elderly residing in the rural area is necessary for their better living quality. Food habit, health and the nutritive intake conditions during the busy farming season were surveyed and comparative analysis of dietary intake for the introduction of meal service in pavilion of the elderly living in Chungnam, Kangwon, Jeonnam and Kyungbuk was performed for basic reference data of meal service introduction to the pavilion of the elderly in rural area. In general subject, the male elderly had a significant difference in marital state and showed that 79.4% was married and 20% was separated by death(P<0.05). In allowance, there were no significant difference but most of them lived with less then three hundred thousand won and especially, female lived with less then one hundred thousand won. In health state, the female elderly showed significant difference on difficulty with every day activity but with small trouble although they had to prepare their own meal(P<0.05). The condition dental health conditions of the female elderly had a significant difference showing bad conditions in following order; Kangwon(48%)>Chungnam(38.1%)>Kyungbuk(22.9%)>Jeonnam(22.5%)(p<0.05). The female elderly showed a significant difference in usage of denture and number of the female elderly without using the denture were very high(p<0.05). In nutrition intake condition, amount of sodium was very high but intakes of fiber and calcium were relatively 1ow(P<0.05). Meal service introduction in the pavilion of the elderly is suggested for the improvement of the life quality of the elderly in rural area.

본 연구는 근로능력이 노인의 우울에 미치는 영향을 도시와 농촌노인을 중심으로 비교 분석하여 노인근로정책과 정신건강정책 마련을 위한 자료제시에 연구목적을 두고 수행하였다. 연구를 위한 분석자료는 한국복지패널 16차년도 자료(2021년)를 이용하였고, 연구대상은 65세 이상 노인 4,838명의 자료를 발췌하여 분석에 투입하였다. 분석방법은 SPSS 22.0을 이용하여 기술통계, 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과 전체 노인은 근로능력이 있는 경우 우울이 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 도시노인은 건강상태와 가구형태가 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났고 농촌노인은 건강상태와 교육수준이 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 도시와 농촌지역의 자원과 환경에 적절한 지역 특색에 맞은 지역사회복지서비스가 제공이 요구되고 된다.

본 연구는 한국복지패널에서 제공하는 1차년도조사데이터(2006)를 사용하여 농촌노인가구에 대하여 최저생계비를 기초로 한 절대적 빈곤율, 상대적 빈곤율, 주관적 빈곤율과 빈곤감의 지표로 주관적 경제수준 및 생활만족수준을 농촌비노인가구, 도시노인가구, 전체가구와 비교함으로써 농촌노인가구의 빈곤특성을 파악하고 있다. 연구결과는, 첫째, 농촌노인가구의 인구사회학적 특성에 따른 빈곤율에서는 남성보다는 여성이, 연령이 많을수록, 국민기초생활보장 수급가구일수록, 노인단독세대일수록 더 높은 빈곤율을 보이고 있다. 둘째, 절대적 빈곤율과 상대적 빈곤율에서는 농촌노인가구가 다른 집단에 비해 높은 빈곤율을 나타내고 있는 반면, 주관적 빈곤율에서는 도시노인가구와 전체가구가 더 높은 빈곤율을 보이고 있다. 셋째, 주관적 경제수준 및 생활만족수준에서는 도시노인가구가 농촌노인가구에 비하여 더 높은 빈곤감을 나타내고 있다. 따라서 실질적인 빈곤수준은 농촌노인가구가 다른 집단에 비해 현저히 높은 반면, 주관적인 빈곤감은 다소 낮은 빈곤특성을 보여주고 있다.
