2012년 통계청 자료에 의하면 한국에 체류하는 외국인은 약 160만명이고, 그 중 방글라데시 노동자는 약 4.7%(한국고용정보원, EPS, 2012)라고 한다. 본 논문의 연구를 위하여 김해(100명), 마산(60명), 인천(40명)에 거주하고 있는 방글라데시 이주 노동자 약 200명에 대하여 설문조사를 실시하였다. 이 연구의 목적은 그들의 직업만족도와 삶의 만족도 사이에는 어떤 관련성이 있는지, 그들의 한국에서의 삶의 만족도를 높이기 위한 방안은 무엇인지에 대하여 알아보고자 하는 것이다. 연구 결과 직업 만족도의 ${\alpha}$ 값은 0.71, 삶의 만족도에 대한 ${\alpha}$ 값은 0.72 이었다. 직업만족도에 대한 설문은 Paul E. Spector(1985)가 고안한 것을 사용하였으며, 삶의 만족도에 대한 설문은 Thomas M. Krapu외 4인이 연구한 것을 사용하였다. 연구 결과 방글라데시 이주 노동자의 직업만족도와 삶의 만족도 사이에는 강한 관련성이 있으며, 그들이 느끼는 삶의 만족도는 매우 낮았다. 이를 높이기 위해서는 정부와 시민단체들의 적극적인 지원이 필요하다고 분석되었다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the moderating effect of green space satisfaction on the relationship between the perception of air pollution and life satisfaction. To achieve this, the current study employed data from the 2018 Social Survey, and a sample of 37,461 participants was analyzed using moderated multiple regression analysis. Results showed that while greater satisfaction with green spaces improved life satisfaction, a more negative perception of air pollution within the community reduced life satisfaction. It was also found that green space satisfaction moderated the relationship between the perception of air pollution and life satisfaction. In other words, greater satisfaction with green spaces buffered the effect of a negative perception of air pollution on life satisfaction. The results of this study suggest that a green environment should be considered an important resource for preventing reduced life satisfaction, and illustrate that there is a need for developing various strategies for the expansion and improvement of green spaces within communities.

Previous studies have examined the relationship between domain satisfaction and life satisfaction. However, a comprehensive investigation of satisfaction with multiple domains and their relative contributions to life satisfaction and hedonic balance are missing in the literature. And most studies were conducted in English speaking countries and only a few cross-cultural studies have been conducted. In the current research, we compared Korean and European Canadian university students to examine how domain satisfactions (satisfaction with healthy lifestyles, family relationships, appearance, financial situation, academic performance) are associated with life satisfaction and hedonic balance. We then examined the relative contributions of people's satisfaction ratings on the life domains to their life satisfaction and hedonic balance. Positive correlations were observed between satisfaction with each of the five life domains, and life satisfaction and hedonic balance across the two cultural groups. Interestingly, satisfactions with healthy lifestyles was the dominant predictor of Koreans' life satisfaction and hedonic balance. Satisfaction with appearance was the dominant predictor of European Canadians' life satisfaction and hedonic balance followed by satisfaction with healthy lifestyles. Overall, these results suggest that there are common life domains that contribute to subjective well-being and that there are specific life domains that may contribute more to subjective well-being depending on the culture.
