  • The primary objective of this study is to find out how housing characteristics have been changed through a recent move. Two hundreds and thrity households in Cheongju City who made a move during 1990 are selected for the empherical study. The findings show that almost families moved to the dwelling with similar or better conditions than the previous ones. The patterns of housing characteristics changed through a move play the role as an intervening variable between family characteristics and changes in housing satisfaction. Also, the results in general support the concepts of housing adjustment theory. There is a small number of low income families who moved to dwelling with worse conditions. Presumably constraints might prevent their housing adjustment behavior.

  • The purpose of this study is to identify the possibility of unemployed married women's economic activity by analysing their willingness to work and possible influencial factors on it. This study estimates the effects of independent variables on the dependent available by using Binomial Probit Model. sample are 592 two-parent households. The results of this study are as follows ; The percentage of unemployed married women's willingness to enter into the labor market is 25.2%. Among the variables which have affected their willingness are family variables(family size, the number of children and the existence of children under the age of 6), personal variables(the age, education level and the past working experience) and financial variables(non-wage income, Engel's coefficient, expenditure o leisure activities and the subject judgement of their financial status). It is hard to accept those women's low willingness as is since the most crucial statistically was especially the children of 6 or less among the family variables. That is to say, more favorable conditions of the labor market and inexpensive day-care centres available would certainly encourage married women to be more willing to participate in economic activities as employees.

  • This research aims at designing policy alternatives which would facilitate the supply of the national rental housing units, especially targeted for the low-income households who need special types of social support for their residences. In order to illuminate structural characteristics of the national rental housing policies, it heavily depends on collection of secondary survey data, in addition to existing documents. From the institutional dimension, it focuses on major issues related to the residential development, which is pivotal in supplying the required national rental housing units. Furthermore, applying causal loop diagramming techniques derived from the System Dynamics (SD), it tries to divulge dynamic relationships between key stakeholders including the government, developers and tenants. Finally, this research stresses the point that the government should fulfill its basic duty as a financial supporter and the developer should not procrastinate in providing diverse options, timely reflecting tenants' needs.

  • 가스를 사용하고 있는 사용자에 대한 설문조사 결과 2010년도를 기점으로 가스안전사고는 급감하고 있으나, 가스사고 발생 세부원인을 분석해 보면 최근에는 취급부주의에 의한 사고가 62%로 증가측면을 보이고 있어 이에 대한 대책이 시급한 것으로 분석 되었다. 또한 10가구 당 7가구 꼴로 가스가 안전한 것으로 인식하고 있지만, 이 중 30%는 향후 가스안전사고가 자신의 집에서 발생할 가능성이 있다고 인식하고 있어 가스이용이 상대적으로 안전하기는 하지만 여전히 사고의 위험성이 상존하고 있다는 것을 인식하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 가스 소비자의 가스안전에 대한 인식은 연령, 성별, 소득수준 등과는 무관한 것으로 분석된 반면, 고학력자이며, 직, 간접적인 가스안전사고 경험이 있고, 가스안전점검 요령을 미숙지하고 있는 사람일수록 가스사용의 안전성에 대한 인식이 상대적으로 낮게 나타났다. 아울러 가스안전사고를 줄이기 위해 노령층 가구에 대한 가스안전기기 설치가 지속적으로 보급되어야 할 것이다.

  • In order to investigate if the employment of housewives may affect the nutritional status of their family members, an analysis was made for the data of 2001 Korea National Health and Nutrition survey. Housewives aged 20 or over were divided into two groups of the working (W, 44.3%) and the non-working (NW, 55.7%), and household income levels were divided into 4 groups of low, middle, high, and high above according to the minimum cost of living in the year of 2001. Nutrient intakes were assessed by using dietary recommended intakes for Koreans of 2005. Working housewives showed similar levels to those of non-working housewives in most nutrients intakes except energy and vitamin C. However their families excluding housewives of W, than those of NW, took less protein, calcium, iron, potassium, vitamin A, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and vitamin C when assessed as % of recommended intakes and took more sodium. Such differences were very strong in children and adolescents, and in the middle income households. More % of the families of W than those of NW consumed nutrients below the estimated average requirements. Percents of hypertension classified by both systolic and diastolic blood pressure were higher in adult family members of W than in those of NW. This tendency seemed to be more significant in the family members aged 30 to 49. Both obesity and under-weight rates of school children ($7{\sim}12\;yrs$) in W were higher than those in NW. The above resuIts suggested that employment of housewives could have negative influences on the nutritional status of their family members, especially of their children and in the middle income class.

  • Objectives: As in many low-income and middle-income countries, out-of-pocket (OOP) payments by patients or their families are a key healthcare financing mechanism in Bangladesh that leads to economic burdens for households. The objective of this study was to identify whether and to what extent socioeconomic, demographic, and behavioral factors of the population had an impact on OOP expenditures in Bangladesh. Methods: A total of 12 400 patients who had paid to receive any type of healthcare services within the previous 30 days were analyzed from the Bangladesh Household Income and Expenditure Survey data, 2010. We employed regression analysis for identify factors influencing OOP health expenditures using the ordinary least square method. Results: The mean total OOP healthcare expenditures was US dollar (USD) 27.66; while, the cost of medicines (USD 16.98) was the highest cost driver (61% of total OOP healthcare expenditure). In addition, this study identified age, sex, marital status, place of residence, and family wealth as significant factors associated with higher OOP healthcare expenditures. In contrary, unemployment and not receiving financial social benefits were inversely associated with OOP expenditures. Conclusions: The findings of this study can help decision-makers by clarifying the determinants of OOP, discussing the mechanisms driving these determinants, and there by underscoring the need to develop policy options for building stronger financial protection mechanisms. The government should consider devoting more resources to providing free or subsidized care. In parallel with government action, the development of other prudential and sustainable risk-pooling mechanisms may help attract enthusiastic subscribers to community-based health insurance schemes.

This study is to present the reform measures about the following 3 problems, on the basis of prior theoretical studies which deals with the common factors having low rate to move in the rental house of the tenants. (1) Physical side, the problem of supply structure, which is not appropriate Housing Supply Structure, (2) Psychological side, the problem of socially excluded rental house residents (3) Economical side, low re-settlement rate of tenants caused from the unreasonableness of the estimated rental value. This study presents that the compulsory rental housing supply rate should be changed to the gross area not from the number of households, and the supply of rental houses should correspond to the household size of tenants through prior demand survey. Secondly, it proposes the housing complex layout for intermixing to solve the social problems to allow a housing for sale and rental houses mixing in a building. And it proposes that the rental value should be calculated considering the neighboring value and in the long run, it should be calculated considering the tenants' income instead construction cost estimate. Also, it should be arranged to provide an opportunity to create income through resident welfare center improvement and provide self-sufficiency functions leading residents to participate in the residential area's repairing and maintenances.
