Purpose: The objective of this study is to identify factors associated with perceived health status of married immigrant women. Methods: Data were collected from 65 married immigrant women. The measurements were Symptom checklist-48, Acculturative Stress Scale, Parenting Stress Index(PSI), and Personal Resource Questionnaire(PQR). Descriptive, T-test, ANOVA test, Pearson correlation and multiple regression analyses were used. Results: There were significant differences in perceived health status according to satisfaction with the married life(F=8.819, p=0.000), and help from husband(F=6.308, p=.003). There was also a significant relationship between perceived health status and perceived economic status (F=8.006, p=.001), acculturative stress (r=.560, p<.01), parenting stress (r=.662, p<.01) and social support (r=-.289, p<.05). The result of multiple regression analysis showed a significant association of parenting stress with perceived health status of married immigrant women (${\beta}=0.397$, p=0.037). Conclusion: Comprehensive interventions designed to enhance the health of married immigrant women, including prevention of acculturative stress, parenting stress and improving social support may be helpful in mitigating health in married immigrant women.

The purpose of this study was to suggest some ways to utilize effectively the labor forces of employed women. For this purpose, this stud\ulcorner examined the family’s attitudes toward the work of married women and the effects of determinants including personal characteristics, household related variables, work related variables and family’s attitudes toward the work of married women on the employment status of married women. KLFI(1995)’s National data were used and one Logistic model and one Calmed model were employed to analyze the efficients of the independent variables. The resets of this study were as follows. The family’s attitudes toward the work of married women among the employed women was highly positive and the one toward the unemployment among the unemployed women was positive too. The variables having significant effects on the husbands’attitudes and the parents(parents in law)’attitudes toward the work of married women were different. The family’s altitudes had a very significant effect on the employment status of married women. Also, the financial situation of the household and some difficulties to find proper house keepers or child care types were important variables to predict the employment status of married women.

이 연구의 목적은 사회자본 이론을 적용해서 영유아기 자녀를 양육하는 기혼 여성의 사회자본을 알아보는 것이다. 만 5세 이하의 자녀를 둔 취업 여성 284명, 비취업 여성 287명에게 수집한 자료로 이들의 사회자본 특성과 취업 여부에 따른 차이, 그리고 사회자본에 영향을 미치는 요인을 살펴보았다. 기혼 여성의 사회관계망은 취업 여부에 따라서 서로 다른 특성을 가진 사람들로 구성되어 있었다. 취업 여부에 따라서 이들이 접근할 수 있는 사회자본에는 차이가 없었던 반면, 경제적 지원과 돌봄 지원을 위해서 동원할 수 있는 사회자본은 취업한 여성에게서 더 많은 것으로 나타났다. 취업 여부 변수는 돌봄 지원을 위해 동원할 수 있는 사회자본을 유의하게 예측했으며, 사회관계망 관련 변수들의 영향은 기혼 여성이 동원하고자 하는 사회자본의 종류에 따라 다르게 나타났다. 이는 취업과 자녀 양육에 대한 기혼 여성의 선택이 돌봄 지원을 위해 동원할 수 있는 사회자본에 반영됨을 시사한다. 또한 기혼 여성의 친족 관계의 중요성과 사회자본을 형성하기 위한 지원방안이 논의되었다.

Marital status has been identified as an important risk factor affecting adult mortality. Many studies have found that marriage has positive effects on mortality and increases life expectancy. Since most pension contracts providing retirement income are provided to married couples, mortality assumption for actuarial valuation based on the entire population is likely to overestimate the actual mortality of the group of beneficiaries specified in the contracts. This study considered the differences in mortality according to marital status to analyze the length and value of the payments of a typical pension contract for a married couple. The study quantified the effect on actuarial measurements of considering marital status in mortality assumptions with a multi-state model framework using Korean experience mortality data organized by marital status. The results of analysis indicate that considering marital status in mortality assumptions improves mortality risk management.

Purpose: This study investigated the trajectory of subjective health status in married postmenopausal women and aimed to identify predictive factors affecting subjective health status. Methods: Data were obtained from women who participated in wave 4 (2012) of the Korean Longitudinal Survey of Women & Families Longitudinal Study and continued to the latest phase (wave 7, 2018). A latent growth model (LGM) was used to analyze data from 1,719 married postmenopausal women in the framework of the ecological system theory. Results: The mean age of the participants at wave 4 was 56.39±4.71 years, and the average subjective health status was around the midpoint (3.19±0.84). LGM analysis confirmed that subjective health status decreased over time (initial B=3.21, slope B=-0.03). The factors affecting initial subjective health were age, body mass index, frequency of vigorous physical activity (microsystem level), marital satisfaction (mesosystem level), and medical service utilization (macrosystem level). Medical service utilization and the frequency of vigorous physical activity were identified as predictive factors affecting the slope in subjective health status. The model fit was satisfactory (TLI=.92, CFI=.95, and RMSEA=.04). Conclusion: This analysis of the trajectory of subjective health status of married postmenopausal women over time confirmed that subjective health is influenced by overall ecological system factors, including the microsystem, mesosystem, exosystem, macrosystem, and chronosystem. Therefore, it is necessary to assess physical activity and support policies promoting access to medical services in order to improve the subjective health status of married postmenopausal women.

본 연구는 30세 이상 한국성인의 결혼상태와 채소섭취와의 연관성을 분석하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 2007~2010년 국민건강영양조사 자료를 이용하여 조사 참가자의 성별, 연령대별 채소섭취량을 비교하고, 채소를 권장섭취횟수보다 부족하게 섭취할 위험도를 분석하였다. 분석결과, 결혼상태에 따라 성별, 연령대별 채소섭취량에 차이가 있었다. 남녀 모두 유배우자 동거 집단의 김치를 포함한 채소섭취량이 결혼한 적 없는 집단과 별거/이혼/사별 집단과 비교해 가장 높았다. 김치를 포함한 채소를 권장섭취횟수보다 적게 섭취할 위험도는 유배우자 동거집단에 비해 결혼한 적 없거나 별거/이혼/사별인 경우 높아지는 경향을 보였다. 65세 이상 남자의 경우 결혼한 적 없음/별거/이혼/사별 집단은 유배우자 동거 집단과 비교해 채소섭취량이 낮았으며, 채소를 권장섭취횟수보다 적게 섭취할 위험도는 높았다. 결혼상태와 채소섭취량의 관계를 명확히 파악하기 위해서는 결혼상태와 식생활의 변화를 함께 조사할 수 있는 코호트 연구가 수행돼야 한다. 또한 결혼상태의 지속기간, 결혼상태의 만족도 등 결혼상태를 다양하게 파악할 수 있는 정보와 함께, 식생활 상태를 평가할 수 있는 자료를 수집해야 한다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the physical growth and developmental status of infants and children of married immigrant women. Methods: The participants were 92 infants and children aged from birth to 6 yr whose mothers were married immigrant women living in one rural area. Physical growth and developmental status were evaluated by using anthropometric assessment, and Korean Denver II developmental screening test. Results: Of the participants, 10.8% were below the 3rd percentile for weight, 13.0% for length, 5.4% for head circumference, and from 69.6% to 79.3% were distributed below the 50th percentile on growth charts. Further, 18.5% were classified as having questionable development. Factors related to low physical growth in infants and children were mother's weight and mother's level in Korean language classes. Conclusion: The physical growth and developmental status of children is vulnerable and serious. The study results suggest a need for regular growth and developmental evaluations. Political support is important for these mothers. In addition, there also is a need to develop early intervention strategies to promote growth and development of the infants and children of these married immigrant women.

Previous studies indicated that unmarried persons are subject to higher mortality than the married, and that the differentials are more marked for male than for females. There are two major approaches to explaining the marital status differentials in mortality ; selection function and protection function of marriage. Following protection fucntion, this study develops the new "instrumental / expressive sex-role" hypothesis in order to explain why marriage protects males more against death. The hypothesis expects that male's instrumental role and female's expressive role have direct effect as well as indirect effect through social integration on sex differential mortality by marital status. for the hypothesis testing, Korea and US vital statistics and census data are used to compute age-specific , age-adjusted mortality rates and their ratios for persons in different marital status. Major findings are as follows. 1)For both Korea and US being married is more advantageous to males than females, ad being widowed, divorced, and separated is more disadvantageous to males, while being never-married is more disadvantageous to females, 2) For Korea, the never married men and women have the highest mortality rates, 3) For US the never married women have the highest mortality rate, while the divorced, separated, and widowed men have the highest mortality rate. Fro both Korea and US data, selection function is rejected, but instrumental/expressive sex-role hypothesis succeeds in accounting for the sex and marital status differential in mortality.

최근 이혼과 미혼이 증가하고 사별이 감소하여서 40대와 50대 혼인상태 분포가 과거보다 훨씬 다양해졌다. 이러한 혼인상태가 건강에 매우 중요한 변수이다. 그러나 한국에서는 중년들의 혼인상태에 따른 건강 차이에 대한 연구가 별로 없는 실정이었다. 본 논문은 2010년 사회조사 자료를 분석하여 중년들의 혼인상태에 따른 건강행위와 건강상태 차이를 살펴보았다. 그런데 많은 연구들이 혼인상태가 미치는 영향은 남녀에 따라 다르다고 주장하고 있다. 그래서 본 연구는 혼인상태가 미치는 영향이 성별에 따라 다른지 확인 한다. 분석결과 대체로 비기혼자들이 기혼자들에 비해 건강에 긍정적인 행위를 덜 했으며 건강에 해가 되는 행위는 더 하는 편이었다. 그리고 비기혼자들이 기혼자에 비해 육체적 건강과 정신적 건강도 더 나빴다. 그런데 성별에 따른 차이를 본 결과 비혼인 상태의 부정적 영향은 남성에게 더욱 심하였다. 이혼한 남성과 사별한 남성은 이혼여성에 비해 건강검진을 덜 받고 있으며 흡연을 더욱 많이 하고 있다. 반면 비혼인 여성들은 몇몇 지표에 있어서는 기혼자들과 별다른 차이가 없기도 했다. 특히나 미혼인 여성들은 삶에 대한 만족도가 다른 비기혼자들은 물론 기혼자들보다 월등히 높은 편이다.
