초록

본 연구는 중고령 여성장애인을 대상으로 경제활동 참여 여부가 생활만족도에 미치는 영향에 있어 장애정도 매개효과를 검증하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위해 장애인고용패널조사 1차 웨이브 2~8차년도에 참여한 만 45세 이상 만 65세 이하 중고령 여성장애인 4,961명을 대상으로 단계적 선형회귀분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과, 중고령 여성장애인의 경제활동 여부는 생활만족도에 정적(+)인 영향을 미치며, 장애정도는 중고령 여성장애인의 경제활동 여부와 생활만족도 간에 매개역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과를 바탕으로 중고령 여성장애인이 경제활동 참여에 따른 생활만족도를 높일 수 있는 다양한 프로그램을 개발하고 장애정도를 고려한 일자리 설계가 필요함을 실천적 함의로 제시하였다.

This study aims to analyze the mediating effect of disability level on the relationship between economic activity participation and life satisfaction level of middle-age and older women with disabilities. The survey respondents were 4,961 women with disabilities aged from 45 to 65 who participated in one of the first series of the PSED(2nd to 8th). Results of the analysis showed the economic activities of middle-aged and older women with disabilities and level of disability were correlated with a statistical significance in the analysis phase 1 and 2, and economic activity participation affected life satisfaction level through the level of disability as a parameter, indicating that a mediating effect does exist. This study suggests that to enhance the life satisfaction level of middle-aged and older women with disabilities through participation in economic activities, an employment scheme based on their level of disability is necessary.
