Abstract

This study aims to identify forecasting factors of baby boomer's social participation desire. For this purpose, I utilized Hyun-Jung Kang(2012)'s data whose 1,115 sample were collected based on residential area and gender. The major findings are as follows; First, 77.7% of baby boomers are actually participating in economic activities. 27.0% in volunteering activities and 79.3% in leisure activities. 80.9% of baby boomers have intention to participate in economic activities after retirement, 76.7% in volunteering activities after retirement and 82.2% in leisure activities after retirement. Second, looking at the relationship between current social activity participation and intention to participate after retirement, those who are currently having social activities turn out to have higher intention to participate social activities after retirement. Those who wish to participate in social activities, although they don't participate in social activities currently, turn out to be 55.8% for economic activities, 70.6% for volunteering activities and 66.5% for leisure activities. Third, whether they are currently participating in social activities turns out to be most compelling forecasting factor for the desire on social participation after retirement. These results were discussed in terms of the continuity theory. and proposed that you need from the preparation of Middle - aged to activate the participation of important social variables known as old age life satisfaction.

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.
