본 연구의 목적은 농촌 노인과 도시 노인의 생활체육참가와 생활만족도에 영향을 미치는 관련요인을 규명하여 비교하고, 지역특성에 맞는 생활체육 시설과 프로그램, 생활만족을 도모하기위한 기초자료를 제공하기 위함이다. 연구의 분석을 위해 한국노동연구원의 2006년 고령화 연구패널조사 자료를 이용하였고, 60세 이상 농촌 노인 502명, 도시 노인 1129명을 분석대상으로 하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 농촌 노인과 도시 노인의 생활체육 참가여부에 따른 생활만족도에 영향을 미치는 관련요인 간에는 유의한 차이를 보였는데, 생활체육에 참가하는 노인들이 전체적으로 생활만족도가 높게 나타났다. 노인의 생활체육 참가여부에 영향을 미치는 요인을 프로빗 분석한 결과 농촌 노인의 경우는 성별, 연령, 직업유무로 나타났고, 도시 노인의 경우는 성별, 연령, 교육수준, 수입, 직업유무가 나타나 다른 결과를 보였다. 또한 참가정도의 경우 농촌 노인의 경우는 참가빈도, 도시 노인은 참기시간이 생활만족도에 유의미한 차이를 보였다. 생활만족도에 대해서 농촌 노인은 교육수준과 주관적 건강, 생활체육참가가 유의하였고, 도시 노인의 경우는 교육수준, 수입, 주관적 건강, 생활체육참가가 유의하였으며, 농촌 노인이 도시 노인보다 전반적인 생활만족도가 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 노인의 생활체육참가와 생활만족도를 향상시키기 위한 지원제도는 사회 인구학적 특성을 반영한 차별화된 지원이 필요할 것이다.

Methods: This cross-sectional study used secondary data from the 2011 Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES V-2). A representative sample of 1,464 men and women aged 65 and over was selected. Rao-scott $X^2$-test, multiple logistic regression models based on sampling scheme of the data were used. Results: Of the 1,464 respondents, 22.4% had experienced suicidal ideation during the past year.

본 연구의 목적은 고령자의 취업에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분석하는 것으로, 특히 도시와 농촌을 비교하는 것이다. 이를 위해 2014년 노인실태조사 원자료를 이용하여 이항 로지스틱 회귀분석 방법을 사용하였다. 65세 이상 노인의 인구학적 특성, 건강관련 특성, 가구관련 특성, 경제적 특성, 최장기직업 특성, 생활환경 특성, 지역 특성이 취업에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 분석 결과 도시거주 노인에 비해 농촌거주 노인이 현재 일하고 있을 가능성이 높았다. 도시와 농촌으로 나누어 분석한 결과 도시지역 고령자의 취업에 영향을 미치는 요인이 더 다양하고 복잡하게 나타났다. 고령자의 일자리에 있어서 도시와 농촌의 지역 차이에 따른 차별화된 정책과 지원이 필요함을 도출할 수 있다.

In spite of rapid sociocultural changes and an increase in the number of nuclear families in recent years, quite many families in Korea still have taken the extended family form where daughter-in-law provides care for the elderly parents. Even though the nature of the inter-generational relationship in Korea is reciprocal in many regards, most of the studies looked at the burden or costs of coresidence with the elderly parents while relatively little attention has been given to the positive side of the coresidence. This study is an attempt to fill this gap in the area. The purpose of this study is to examine not only the costs but also benefits of the coresidence with the elderly parents. We also explore whether there is a rural-urban differences in costs and benefits of coresidence and related factors. For the purpose, data were gathered from 876 daughters-in-law of three generational family both in rural and urban area, using structured questionnaire. The statistical methods used for data analysis were descriptive statistics, cross tables, and regression analysis with SPSS/PC+ program. The major findings of this study were as follows: Marital and economic status of the elderly parents, age, job status and filial responsibility attitude of caregiver, sibling support, and coresidence duration were the significant variables predicting the level of perceived benefits. Marital status of elderly parents, income, job status, educational level, and filial responsibility altitude of caregiver, residence region affected the level of perceived costs. Rural-urban differences are found in many aspects of coresidence experiences and related factors. Rural caregivers receive higher level of the sibling support, have more traditional final responsibility altitude and perceived less costs and more benefit than urban caregivers. There also are differences in the factors influencing the level of perceived costs and benefits between rural and urban area. Level of sibling support and final responsibility attitude have significant impact on both the perceived costs and benefits. But there are differences in terms of that perceived costs and benefits of urban caregivers are affected by job status of caregivers while those of rural caregivers are affected by educational level of caregivers and marital status of elderly. The results confirm that Korean caregivers experience both positive and negative aspects of coresidence and shows that the nature of the inter-generational relationships differ between rural and urban Korea.

As longevity of human-beings is extended and the population of aged people increases, diverse issues related with the aged people are presented. The neighborhood space for the aged people is required to be designed based upon the understanding of such difficulties of the elderly and the public outdoor environment is an important environmental resource that can enhance the quality of life and promote the health of the elderly in underprivileged area without burdening them economically. This study aims to research the daily life of the elderly in underprivileged urban area and their utilization styles of outdoor environments in order to find out the push factors and pull factors that induce the aged people to use the outdoor environments. For this purpose, this study carried out an interview survey upon 69 elderly residents and surveyed on 363 elderly residents of low income class who are aged 60 and over and living in decaying area in Jeonju. For the analysis of the collected data, a qualitative and a quantitative analysis were accomplished. As results of study, the elderly in underprivileged area use such outdoor environments as resting facilities, exercise equipment, parks, farming gardens and waterfronts, and the push factors for them to use the outdoor environments were sordid indoor spaces, sense of isolation or loneliness, and the desire for maintaining good health. And the pull factors for them to use the outdoor environments were natural factors, opportunities for social interactions, space for exercise. The obstacles that hinder the elderly in using outdoor environments were the bad health of the elderly, lack of facilities, accessibility and weather conditions. Thus, the results of this study are expected to provide basic data for designing the outdoor environments to promote the health of the elderly in urban underprivileged area and to relieve the burdensome problems related with ageing societies.
