The purpose of this study were to identity face satisfaction and make-up behavior according to their lifestyles of middle aged women. The subjects were 350 women of 40 - 59 years old. The results of this study were as follow: 1. Lifestyle factors of middle aged women were self confidence, leisure activities, interests in appearance, economical efficiency, conservatism, and value-orientation. They were classified into four types of dignified & appearance interested group, passive stagnated group, unconfident & economic group, and value-oriented & leisure group according to their lifestyles. 2. They were satisfied with their eyes, lips, and eyebrows, but not satisfied with face tone, face shape, and skin texture. Total face satisfaction level was over average. The face satisfaction level of dignified & appearance interested group and value-oriented & leisure group were higher than other groups, but that of passive stagnated group was the lowest. 3. They pursued internal beauty and natural makeup, and did not follow trendy colors. Dignified & appearance interested group pursued characteristic, elegant, changeable, and various make-up colors, but value-oriented & leisure group pursued more various, changeable, and trendy colors. They did not prefer trendy products because of high price. Dignified & appearance interested group and unconfident & economic group were highly price-oriented, but value-oriented & leisure group purchased trendy products. 4. Dignified & appearance interested group included working women with not much income, but passive stagnated group included low-educated and non-working women. Unconfident & economic group included low-educated non-working women with not much income, but value-oriented & leisure group included highly-educated working women with high income.

한국 노동시장에서 고학력 여성의 낮은 취업률은 고급 여성인력의 낭비라는 비판과 함께 사회적 문제로 지적되어 왔다. 교육과 관련된 한국여성의 경제행위는 기존 미시경제학의 분석틀로 설명하기 어려운 현상이다. 외견상 모순되어 보이는 한국여성의 노동참여 유형을 설명하기 위해서 거시적 측면의 여러 요인들을 검토했다. 선진국의 경우 교육과 여성노동 참여는 명백히 정(正)의 관계로 나타나는 데 반해서 개도국의 경우는 그 둘간의 관계가 다양하다. 이러한 다양성에도 불구하고 이들 개도국에서 공통적으로 발견되는 점은 고학력 여성들은 저학력 여성들에 비해 훨씬 더 적극적으로 노동시장에 참여하고 있다는 것이다. 이에 반해서 한국의 경우는 선진국이나 개도국 어느 유형에도 속하지 않는 특이한 경우이다. 여성의 노동시장 참여에 대한 교육효과는 다른 나라와 비교하여 아주 미약하며, 특히 두드러진 점은 고학력 여성들의 노동시장 참여율이 아주 낮다는 것이다. 거시적 수준에서 여성집단의 교육수준 향상이나 여성의 사회활동에 대한 부정적 인식의 변화가 여성의 교육 수준 향상이나 여성의 사회활동에 대한 부정적 인식의 변화가 여성의 경제활동에 중요한 영향을 미친다는 기존의 연구가 있었다. 필자는 몇 가지 사례를 제시하면서 이 두 요인이 고학력 여성의 노동시장 참여를 유도해 내는 데에 아주 중요한 요인이라는 기존의 논의를 반박하면서, 여성노동에 대한 수요의 급증이 그 어느 요인보다도 중요한 것이라고 주장한다. 여성노동시장 참여에 대한 교육효과가 낮은 이유는 노동시장에서 기혼여성에 대한 차별로 많이 설명될 수 있다. 기혼여성에 대한 차별은 화이트칼라직에서 더 체계적으로 나타난다. 이러한 직종은 교육수준이 상대적으로 높은 여성들을 위한 것이어서 고학력 여성의 취업의 기회를 제한한다. 선진국의 과거에도 노동시장에서 기혼여성에 대한 차별은 존재했다. 그러나 산업발전과 더불어 증가한 비육체노동직은 여성노동력에 대한 수요를 증가시켰으며 특히 그 중 고학력 여성의 노동수요 증가가 두드러졌다. 요약하면, 한국의 경우 풍부한 고학력 남성노동력의 공급과 비육체노동직에서 여성노동에 대한 수요의 완만한 증가로 여성노동참여에 관한 교육의 효과는 미미할 수 밖에 없다.

This study explored general marriage migration for 180 unmarried Vietnamese immigrant women and identified differences in recognition after the choice of marriage. The methods used were frequency analysis, kai verification, and independent t verification were conducted. The findings were as follows. First, unmarried Vietnamese women showed a receptive attitude towards marriage migration with the less-educated group more likely to opt for marriage migration. Economic benefit expectations topped other factors in regards to the image of marriage migrant women and motivation. Dual national identity benefits were also indicated. Second, the perception of external and illusionary images of the spouses of marriage migrant women was low; however, the perception of good occupations and gender equality was high. A vague expectancy of marriage was also found. The perception was high that children from multi-cultural families would be global bilingual talents and adjust to school; however, the perception of social discrimination or prejudice was low. The perception of social discrimination was low concerning the perception of social integration towards marriage migrant women; however, the perception of identities, cultural differences and employment was present. By contrast, the group opting for marriage migration showed a significantly low perception of social discrimination and difficulty in employment. The suggested measures are to regulate and maintain forms of marriage type, reinforce prior training systems for Vietnamese immigrant women (and spouses), enhance multicultural recognition, and supplement multicultural policies.

This study explores the relationship between attitudes toward abortion and such variables as age, education, religion, working, family income, son preference, and abortion experience. Questions are asked to see whether or not respondents think it should be possible to obtain legal abortion in nine circumcestances. Logit analysis is executed to see the relationship between abortion attitudes and explanatory variables for all respondents and then for women with abortion experience and for those without. Women with abortion experience are more likely to favor abortion than those without the experience. Catholics show tendency to oppose to legalized abortion compared to women with no religion. Women who show higher son preference are more likely to oppose to abortion in case of pregnancy by rape. Women who are working then to show favorable attitudes toward abortion in case of women who want no more child. Women who have low income and abortion experience have than young women. The more educated women show the more favorable attitudes toward abortion.

이 논문에서는 여성 임금과 출산율의 관계를 미국자료(NLSY79)를 통해 분석하였다. 여성임금은 사회학적 시각에서는 역할충돌을 완화하는 기제로, 경제학적 시각에서는 소득효과와 대체효과가 혼재되어 있는 것으로 이해될 수 있다. 분석 결과, 여성의 시간당 임금과 출산수준은 대체로 부의 상관관계를 보였다. 정의 관계를 보인 경우는 대졸여성의 자녀수와 그녀의 2년 전 시간당 임금의 경우 뿐이었다. 연령대별로 나누어 살펴보면, 나이가 들어갈수록 부의 관계는 약화되는 것으로 나타났다. 하지만 이산형 위험모델을 통한 분석결과, 이러한 관계는 교육수준에 따라 다르게 나타났다. 고졸이하의 여성은 임금이 상승할 때 출산을 줄이는 경향이 나타났지만, 그이상의 학력을 가진 여성은 임금이 상승할 때 오히려 출산을 늘이는 경향이 나타났다. 이는 상대적으로 고소득이 기대되는 고등교육을 바진 여성에게서만 임금상승이 역할 충돌을 완화하는 작용을 성공적으로 하고 있다고 볼 수 있다. 또한 임금상승의 의미가 저학력 여성에겐 대체효과가 더 크고, 고학력 여성에겐 소득효과가 더 크다고 해석될 수 있다. 이는 출산을 미룬 대졸여성들에겐 노동시장에서 성공이 출산에 긍정적 관계를 갖는다는 의미를 보여준다.

'저복지 국가인 미국에서, 여성들의 일-가정양립은 어떠한 역사적 과정을 거쳐 이루어져 왔을까?' 이 질문에 답을 하고자, 미국 여성 일-가정양립경로의 형성과정에 대한 역사적 인과관계를 4단계시기로 나누어 살펴보았다. 과거 전업주부에 머물렀던 중산층 기혼여성을 대상으로 하여, 여성 일-가정 양립모델에 대한 역사적 제도주의적 접근을 시도함으로써 기존연구들과의 차별성을 두었다. 주요 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 제1단계는 여성의 고등교육이 확대되고, 산업변화로 미혼여성들의 사회진출이 시작된 시기였다. 제2단계는 중산층 여성들의 사회진출이 뉴딜, 소비자본주의, 제2차 세계대전을 통해 확대된 시기이다. 제3단계는 여성해방운동으로 정부의 적극적 조치에 대한 '적극적' 시행이 요구되어 전문화된 직업영역으로 여성의 일자리가 확대된 시기였다. 제4단계에서는 더 나은 정규직 일자리로 진입하려는 여성 근로자의 공급 측면과, 양질의 근로자를 얻고자 하는 사용자의 수요 부분이 개별고용관계를 통해 노동시장 제도 내에서 맞물렸다. 이로써 맞벌이의 규범화가 이루어졌다. 즉, 저복지국가인 미국에서는 여성의 개별적 노력(학업을 통한 능력향상과 여성운동)과 개별고용관계가 발달된 노동시장 특징으로 인하여, 고학력 중산층 여성의 '고(高)고용-고출산'이 가능하며, 정규직 일자리로의 재복귀가 비교적 용이한 여성 일-가정양립 패턴이 완성될 수 있었다.

The purpose of the study was to segment home-shoppers by the Mixture model and to examine the characteristics of the segmented markets. Total 700 copies of questionnaires were distributed to home-shoppers more than 19 years old in Seoul and Busan and analyzed 638 copies with the Mixture model using LatentGold Program. The results of the study were as follows: In the segmented market 1, women in forties and housewives with a lowly educated person purchased for the most part from 10 A.M. to 5 P.M and the study named them as the average home shopping purchaser group. In the segmented market 2, men in twenties and students with a highly educated person often purchased with a small amount of money at 6, 7, 12 P.M and the study named them as the high-satisfaction frequent group purchasing a few goods. In the segmented market 3, professional men in forties with a highly educated person rarely purchased with a lot of amount of money from 8 P.M to 11 P.M and the study named them as low-satisfaction rare group purchasing not a few goods. Marketing strategies and discussion were suggested in detail.

Seven aspects of attitude toward marriage in Korea are examined to better understand present and future marriage patterns. Also, various facets of current marriage practice are compared with attitudes. The study comprises three groups of roughly 600 women each, selected by random sampling from a rural, an urban, and a semi-urban area. A carefully designed and pretested questionnaire was checked for reliability by a reinterview in a 15% subsample. The great majority of Korean women support traditional attitudes that one must or should marry. The small group who recommend that one should not marry are mostly the very young or the never married, whose attitudes still may change. However, there are important and probably predictive shifts in favor of more individual decision, especially among the better educated, the young, and the more urban. Traditional reasons for marriage such as "custom" and procreation are ranked first by a majority, but there is a large shift to more contemporary or liberal desire for companionship and love, also primarily among the better educated, the urban, the young, and the never married. The traditional attitude that parents should have the sole or major role in mate selection is still held by a bare majority; the educated, urban, young, and never married are more liberal. Only 6% opt for each of the two extremes: That the parent alone or the respondent alone should decide. The remainder prefer one of the two middle-of-the-road positions where parent and child together decide. The proportions of respondents who classed specified criteria as moat important for selecting a husband, arranging the criteria in order from traditional to contemporary were: Lineage, etc., 23%; personal attributes, 40%; health and education, 27%; and love, 10%. The changing attitudes are suggested by the fact that love was ranked first by only 3% of the poorly educated rural poulation versus 23% of urban college level and 31% of the urban never married. There has been a substantial rise in the ideal age of marriage over the past twelve or more years, but there also is evidence that the ideal age is at or near a ceiling. Knowledge about legal age of marriage is minimal; the implications of this for proposed legislation are discussed. Three-fifthes to four-fifths of all respondents married husbands of the same religious, residential, and economic backgrounds as themselves. Almost all of them married men of the same or higher educational level. These evidences of traditional influences in mate selection are contrasted with the low priority given some of those items in earlier questions on reasons for marriage and criterion for selecting husband. Contrary to the expressed attitudes as to who should select the husband, we find that marriages of the study sample were stated to be arranged by parents alone in 62%; and in another 23%, the parents made the decision but asked the respondent's views. Such arrangements were most frequent among the rural, the less educated, and the older respondents and less common in the urban and more educated. The implications of these and related findings are discussed.

Although women's economic participation has been increasing in Korea, the utilization of educated women's labor is still low. Therefore, vocational training programs for women are both important and necessary. This study examines the vocational training programs for women offered by the three largest vocational training centers in Jeju: the Woman Resources Development Center, the Jeju Women's Development Center, and the Seogwipo City Women's Cultural Center. This study also analyzes the students' satisfaction with these vocational training programs and identifies the related variables that cause differences in their levels of satisfaction. The sample includes 397 respondents who were surveyed from June 23 to September 12, 2008. Moreover, the data are analyzed by conducting a one-way ANOVA, t-test, and Duncan's Multiple Range(DMR)test. The major results of the study are as follows. First, the vocational training programs in Jeju consist of lectures that cover various subjects. The programs mainly focus on work that offers relatively low wages and requires few skills, and the duration of the programs is short. Second, the original goal of the programs does not meet the needs of women who are seeking employment. The participants respond that they want more appropriate programs that are designed by considering their need for employment, support them in finding a job, and re-educate them. Third, most of the participants are satisfied with their vocational training experiences, and their satisfaction with the instructors is especially high. The differences in their levels of satisfaction are caused by economic characteristics such as the location of the student's residence, home ownership, and the level of life. The results of this study suggest that there is a need to separate vocational/employment training from general education for women. Moreover, the vocational training programs for women should be more specialized according to the different needs of each group.
