Abstract

The purpose of this study is to consider the effect of the volunteer participation motivation of the elderly on the convergence formation of the social capital. This study is based on the quantitative research of 390 older adults who have participated on the volunteer programs run by welfare center and culture center for the elderly at Incheon area. The results are as follows. First, social responsibility and self-realization (independent variables) have effect on social trust(dependent variable). Second, self-realization(independent variable) has effect on social participation(dependent variable). Third, but social activity(independent variables) have not effect on social trust and social participation(dependent variable). This study can be use to propose policies related to the social activity for the elder's good life.

본 연구는 노인 자원봉사 참여동기 수준이 노인 사회적 자본의 융복합 형성에 미치는 영향을 고찰하는데 목적이 있다. 본 연구를 위하여 인천지역 노인복지관과 노인문화센터 등에서 자원봉사에 참여 중인 노인들을 대상으로 설문조사를 하였으며, 총 390부의 자료를 모아 분석을 수행하였다. 연구결과 첫째, 사회적 책임감과 자아실현(독립변수)이 사회적 신뢰(종속변수) 형성에 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 파악되었다. 둘째, 자아실현(독립변수)이 사회적 참여(종속변수) 형성에 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 파악되었다. 셋째, 그러나 사회적활동(독립변수)은 사회적 신뢰와 사회적 참여(종속변수) 형성에 유의미한 영향 관계를 갖지 못하였다. 이러한 연구결과는 노인들의 삶의 질을 높이기 위한 사회활동지원과 관련된 정책 제안에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 본다.
