Abstract

This paper investigates the differences in norms, values, and trusts that affect the quality of life of the elderly, as well as the elderly population. The elderly surveyed 401 households (65 years old or older) residing in N city. As a result of the analysis, there was a difference in life satisfaction according to sex, marital status, educational background, type of household composition and income level in the comparison of life satisfaction according to demographic variables. As a result of examining the influence of social capital on the elderly's life satisfaction, it was found that they contributed to trust, norm, and participation order. This study suggests that future policies of the elderly welfare policy should be considered as a policy that focuses on participation in various social activities that can activate social capital.

본 논문은 노인인구의 증가와 더불어 노인 삶의 질에 영향을 미치는 서로 다른 사회적 자원과 규범, 가치, 신뢰 등의 차이를 조사하였다. 조사대상 노인은 N시에 거주하는 65세 이상 노인 가구(401가구)를 대상으로 조사를 실시하였다. 분석결과 인구사회학적 변수에 따른 삶의 만족도 차이비교에 있어서 성별, 결혼여부, 학력, 가구구성형태, 수입정도에 따른 삶의 만족도 차이는 있는 것으로 보여졌으며 노인의 삶의 만족도에 있어서 사회적 자본의 영향력을 살펴본 결과 신뢰. 규범, 참여 순으로 기여하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 노인복지정책의 내용 및 방향에 있어서 사회적 자본을 활성화 할 수 있는 다양한 노인사회활동 참여를 중심으로 하는 정책이 우선적으로 고려되어야 함을 시사한다.
