Abstract

This study analyzes life experiences and prospects of poverty/welfare exit of the poor with work ability utilizing Mixed methodology. Based on Sequential Exploratory Design, it qualitatively analyzes 3 waves of qualitative panel data linked to Korea Welfare Panel Study(KWPS) and presents life changes of 14 poor in the context of their prospects of welfare/poverty exit. Then it proposes hypotheses on the role of education, household economy expectation, self-esteem in the prospects of poverty/welfare exit following the sequential exploratory design to quantitatively test qualitative findings utilizing KWPS(7th). The outcomes of the Structural Equation Model(SEM) suggest that household economy expectation plays mediating role between education and the prospects of welfare/poverty exit. This implies that anti-poverty policy needs to consider a psychological approach to enhance household economy expectations of the poor as well as other material support.

본 연구는 근로능력이 있는 빈곤층의 삶의 경험과 탈수급/탈빈곤 전망을 혼합방법론 중 순차적 탐구전략을 활용하여 질적 양적으로 분석하였다. 이를 위해 우선 한국복지패널 연계 질적패널의 1-3차 웨이브 중 근로능력이 있는 14인의 빈곤 가구주의 인터뷰를 분석하여, 이들이 3년간 경험한 삶의 변화를 탈빈곤 전망 맥락에서 제시하였다. 이후 질적분석에서 도출한 가설을 양적분석으로 확인하는 순차적 탐구전략에 따라, 빈곤층의 교육수준이 생활전망 및 자존감을 매개로하여 탈수급/탈빈곤 전망에 영향을 미친다는 가설을 설정하고, 한국복지패널 7차년도 자료를 활용하여 변량분석과 구조방정식을 통하여 가설을 검증하였다. 그 결과, 교육수준은 그 자체가 아니라 생활전망이라는 심리적 요인을 매개로 하여 탈수급/탈빈곤 전망에 영향을 미치고 있음을 확인할 수 있었고, 이는 향후 탈빈곤정책이 물질적 지원 외에도 빈곤층의 생활전망을 제고하는 심리적 차원을 고려해야 한다는 함의를 제시하고 있다.
