초록

본 연구는 손자녀를 대상으로 가족돌봄을 제공하는 조부모의 자본이 삶의 만족도에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여 국민노후보장패널 8차 본조사 자료를 이용하였다. 연구 결과, 삶의 만족도에 영향을 미치는 자본의 영향력이 20.1%로 나타났다. 조부모의 자본 중 가계 총소득과 건강상태가 삶의 만족도에 유의한 정(+)적인 영향을 미쳤다. 즉, 손자녀에게 가족돌봄을 제공하는 조부모의 가계 총소득이 많을수록, 건강상태가 좋을수록 삶의 만족도가 높게 나타났다. 반면에 돌봄시간은 삶의 만족도에 부(-)적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났는데 이는 손자녀를 돌보는 시간이 길수록 조부모의 삶의 만족도가 낮음을 의미한다. 이와 같은 결과는 조부모의 손자녀 돌봄 가능성이 증가하는 요즘에 조부모의 삶의 만족도의 영향 요인을 시사하며, 가계 총소득, 건강상태와 돌봄시간이 주요 변수임을 알 수 있었다. 이를 토대로 손자녀를 돌보는 조부모의 삶의 만족도를 증가시키기 위한 방안을 제시하였다.

This study used data from the 8th main survey of the National Old Age Security Panel to find out the effect of grandparents' capital that provides family care for grandchildren on life satisfaction. As a result of the study, the influence of capital of the study subjects on life satisfaction was 20.1%. Among the grandparents' capital, household gross income and health status had a significant positive (+) effect on life satisfaction. In other words, the higher the household gross income of grandparents who provide family care to grandchildren and the better the health status, the higher life satisfaction. On the other hand, caring time was found to have a negative (-) effect on life satisfaction, which means that the longer the time to care for grandchildren, the lower the life satisfaction of grandparents. These results suggest factors influencing grandparents' life satisfaction in these days when the likelihood of grandparents caring for grandchildren increases, and it was found that household gross income, health status, and caring time are major variables. Based on this, a plan was suggested to increase the life satisfaction of grandparents caring for grandchildren.
