This study was to examine the effects of economic, social, psychological, and marital resources on the relationship between retirement related stress and life satisfaction among the retired husbands and their wives. Economic resources included actual income, the amount of reduced income after retirement, and perceived adequacy of income, while social resources consisted of the supports from children, relatives, friends and neighbors. Psychological resources constituted sense of mastery and marital resource was measured by the emotional supports from the spouse. Data from 178 couples in Seoul revealed that retirees and their spouse perceived retirement as a very stressful extent, with husbands viewing their retirement as more stressful than their wives. The retirement related stress was found to be the most significant predictor on the life satisfaction of the couples. For retired husbands, life satisfaction was closely associated to sense of mastery and supports from children and relatives. The health status, perceived adequacy of income, sense of mastery, and supports from children and relatives were related to life satisfaction for wives.

본 연구는 해기직업 생활자가 은퇴 후 어떤 삶을 살아가고 있는지를 연구하여 해기직업 종사자에게 은퇴 이후 생활에 필요한 정보를 제공하고 정책적 방안을 마련하고자 함에 있다. 217명의 다양한 학력자를 대상으로 실태조사를 실시한 자료를 토대로 연구한 결론은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 우리나라 해기직업 종사자들의 은퇴 연령은 육상직업 종사자들에 비해 빠르며, 이는 해상직업 생활의 이가정성, 이사회성으로 인해 조기 하선이 원인인 것으로 판단된다. 둘째, 해기직업 종사자의 은퇴 후 생활의 만족도는 학력과 해기직업 종사기간과는 무관하며 그 동안 얼마만큼 경제력을 확보하여 은퇴 생활을 여유 있게 하느냐에 따라 좌우된다. 셋째, 육상근무자일수로, 고학력자일수록 그리고 해상경력이 짧을수록 은퇴 후 생활비 수준이 높게 나타났다. 넷째, 해기직업 종사자들의 은퇴 후 생활은 직업생활 당시 희망과는 무관하게 특별한 활동없이 집에서 보내는 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로 해기직업 종사자들의 은퇴 후 안정적 노후생활을 영위할 수 있도록 사회보장제도 마련과 함께, 재승선의 기회를 가질 수 있는 지원정책이 필요하다.
