The study analyzes divorce rates in Korea and makes suggestions for the future research of divorce rates. Based on the data from Korea Statistical Information System (KOSIS) of the National Statistics Organization, trends for divorce rates change and the relations between divorce rates and macro environmental factors are analyzed. Macro environmental factors include socioeconomic factors such as, Korean War, Vietnam War, oil shock, IMP economic crisis and gross national income (GNI), whereas demographical factors include population structure, rates of female labor participation, and geographical location. The principle characteristics of divorce rates are as follows: 1) the Crude divorce rates (CDR) and the number of divorced had been increased from 1970 to 2004, then the trend changed to a decrease; 2) the slope of the change were the highest during 1998 to 2004 after the IMP economic crisis. The relations between socioeconomic factors are as follows: 1) during the war there was a small increase of CDR for a short period of time; 2) the economic crisis of the nation tend to increase the CDR, while the IMP economic crisis had a strong impact on an increase of CDR because of the interaction effect among the population structure, women's sex role changes as well as the level of standard of living. The increase in CDR from 1990 to 2000 can be explained partly by the population of baby Boomers passing through their marriage and divorce process. The number of population residing in the rural area and the middle class households, and the mobility of population also had an impact on the divorce rates changes. The recommendations for the future research were as follows: 1) the need to develop new divorce statistics that are based on a marriage cohort or a birth cohort because family behavior is a mixture of personal, social and political responses, and because CDR is not an accurate measure of divorce rate since it was influenced by population structure; 2) the need to include micro personal factors as well as macro social factors in a model to find an interaction effect between those variables.

Objectives: This study aimed to identify regional differences in the high-risk drinking rate among yearly alcohol users in Korea and to identify relevant regional factors for each quintile using quantile regression. Methods: Data from 227 counties surveyed by the 2017 Korean Community Health Survey (KCHS) were analyzed. The analysis dataset included secondary data extracted from the Korean Statistical Information Service and data from the KCHS. To identify regional factors related to the high-risk drinking rate among yearly alcohol users, quantile regression was conducted by dividing the data into 10%, 30%, 50%, 70%, and 90% quantiles, and multiple linear regression was also performed. Results: The current smoking rate, perceived stress rate, crude divorce rate, and financial independence rate, as well as one's social network, were related to the high-risk drinking rate among yearly alcohol users. The quantile regression revealed that the perceived stress rate was related to all quantiles except for the 90% quantile, and the financial independence rate was related to the 50% to 90% quantiles. The crude divorce rate was related to the high-risk drinking rate among yearly alcohol users in all quantiles. Conclusions: The findings of this study suggest that local health programs for high-risk drinking are needed in areas with high local stress and high crude divorce rates.

도시화 및 산업화는 가족의 애정기능 증대, 친족관계 약화, 공사영역분리, 여성의 교육수준 향상 및 취업기회 증가, 부부관계의 평등성 추구 등을 통해 이혼을 증가시키는 요인으로 알려져 왔다. 혼인·이혼신고 자료와 인구주택총조사 자료를 활용하여 1970년∼1995년 동안 발생한 한국의 성별, 연령별, 시도별, 교육수준별 이혼율을 비교하였다. 이혼수준을 측정하기 위하여 조이혼율, 일반이혼율, 연령별이혼율, 연령표준화 이혼을 전체인구와 유배우인구를 대상으로 각각 산출하였고, 각종 이혼력 지표의 특성을 논의하였다. 1970년∼1995년 동안 이혼율이 3배 증가하였으며, 1995년 현재 유배우인구 천 명당 3.2건의 이혼이 발생하였다. 동기간 동안 24세 이하 연령층의 이혼율이 가장 높았고, 전 연령층에 걸쳐 빠른 속도로 이혼율이 증가하였는데, 증년층의 이혼율 증가 속도가 가장 빨랐고, 남성보다는 여성의 상대적 이혼율 증가 정도가 더 빨랐다. 시도별 이혼율은 전연령층에 걸쳐 서울, 부산, 인천, 대전, 경기, 제주도가 높았고, 강원도와 전라북도 25∼34세 연령층의 이혼율이 높았다. 교육수준별 이혼율이 남자는 초등학교 졸업집단에서, 여자는 고등학교 졸업 집단에서 가장 높았고, 남자는 대졸 이상 집단, 여자는 무학 집단에서 가장 낮게 나타났다.

이 연구의 목적은 노인자살률의 지역적 차이를 기술하고 지역적인 노인자살률의 차이에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 규명하는데 있다. 통계분석을 위하여 2000년부터 2008년까지 16개 광역자치단체의 자살에 대한 자료가 이용되었다. 조이혼율, 1인당 지역생산액, 복지예산비율, 여가시설수, 의료 및 주거복지시설수, 체육시설수 등 여섯 개 독립변수들이 다중회귀분석에 도입되었으며 노인자살률, 여성노인자살률, 남성노인자살률 등이 종속변수로 사용되었다. 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 노인자살률은 2000년 이후 지속적으로 상승하였으며 노인자살률의 지역적 차이 역시 존재하였다. 다중회귀분석결과에 따르면 체육시설(${\beta}$=-521), 복지예산비율(${\beta}$=-375) 그리고 여가시설(${\beta}$=-219) 등은 노인자살률에 통계적으로 유의미한 부적 영향을 미치는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 반면, 의료시설수(${\beta}$=0.550)와 조이혼율(${\beta}$=0336)은 노인자살률에 통계적으로 유의미한 정적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로 연구결과를 기초로 하여 노인자살률을 완화시키기 위한 정책적 함의들이 소개되고 논의되었다.

Background: This study purposed to analyze the relationship between extinction risk regions and amenable mortality. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study based on the statistics of 2018 which was extracted from the 228 administrative districts in Korea. Cause of death statistics on each region in 2018 was used to produce the age-adjusted amenable mortality. Regional characteristics were measured by demographic factors, health behavior factors, socioeconomic factors, and medical resources factors. Multiple linear regression model was applied to test their relationship. Results: Results showed that extinction risk regions, crude divorce rates, national cancer screening rates, and independent rate of finance were significantly related to the amenable mortality. Conclusion: The study demonstrated differences in health status by the extinction risks of regions. This study suggests that the use of customized community care program can provide integrated services such as housing, health care or the use of information and communications technology which can make early diagnosis.

This study analyzes marriage and fertility rates in Korea and makes recommendations for family policy. Based on the 'The Report of Marriage & Divorce Statistics in 2005' and data from the Korea Statistical Information System (KOSIS) of the National Statistics Organization, the trends, reasons for marriage rates changes, and future expectations were critically reviewed. In addition, the relationship between marriage and fertility rates was analyzed. The principle characteristics of marriage rates are as follows: 1) the M-shape of the longitudinal crude marriage rates; 2) the increased age of individuals entering their the first marriage; 3) the increase in remarriage rates; 4) the changes in the patterns of remarriage; 5) the increased in the age at which individuals remarry and; 6) the increase in marriage to non-Koreans. The marriage and fertility rates changes are a permanent normative shift because of 1) later marriage because of women's increased education and labor force participation 2) rational choices about birth control 3) reduced population because of the aging of baby boomers 4) structural changes in the marriage market and 5) egalitarian changes in women's attitudes toward marriage and family. The recommendations for future family policy were as follows: 1) the need for a realistic, long-term family policy because the current marriage patterns will continue; 2) the need to develop new statistics such as fertility rates that are based on marriage cohort or birth cohort because family behavior is a mixture of personal, social and political responses; 3) the need for impact analysis of current family policy about increasing fertility rates; 4) the need for a new family perspective that encompasses diverse marriage and family patterns; 5) the need to focus on men's role in families because of women's changing roles and family interaction patterns and; 6) the need for preventive family policies such as family life education.
