본 연구의 목적은 부모의 삶의 만족도와 아동의 삶의 만족도가 상호 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 종단적으로 분석하는 것이다. 연구자료는 2010년(초4)에서 2015년(중3)까지 총 6차년에 걸친 한국아동 청소년패널조사(KCYPS) 데이터이며, 분석에 사용된 사례는 총 1,963명이다. 본 연구목적인 아동 삶의 만족도와 부모 삶의 만족도 간의 종단적 관계를 살펴보기 위해 자기회귀교차지연 모형을 적용한 분석결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 아동 삶의 만족도와 부모 삶의 만족도의 자기회귀효과는 각각 시간의 흐름에도 지속적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 부모 삶의 만족도가 아동 삶의 만족도에 미치는 교차지연효과는 이전 시점의 부모 삶의 만족도가 이후 시점의 아동 삶의 만족도에 지속적으로 유의한 정적영향을 미치고 있었다. 셋째, 아동 삶의 만족도가 부모 삶의 만족도에 미치는 교차지연효과는 이전 시점의 아동 삶의 만족도가 이후 시점의 부모 삶의 만족도에 지속적으로 유의한 정적영향을 미치고 있었다. 연구결과를 통해 부모 삶의 만족도는 아동 삶의 만족도를 높일 수 있는 중요한 요인이며, 아동 삶의 만족도 역시 부모 삶의 만족도를 높일 수 있는 요인으로 작용할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 본 연구는 종단자료를 통해 아동 삶의 만족도와 부모 삶의 만족도 간의 관계를 아동기에서 청소년기까지 시간의 흐름에 따른 인과적 방향성을 검증하였다는 점에 의의가 있다. 이러한 결과들을 토대로 우리나라 부모와 아동들의 삶의 만족을 높이기 위한 여러 함의점들을 제시하였다.

The purpose of this research was, first, to classify work-life satisfaction among married wage workers aged 20-59 years into several distinct types based on two dimensions of work and life, using data from the 20th(2017) wave of the Korean Labor & Income Panel Study. Second, the study aimed to assess the differences in socio-demographic characteristics (sex, age, educational level, average monthly income), and workplace-related variables (weekly working hours, full-time employment, job stability, business type, family-friendly leave policies) by work-life satisfaction type. Accordingly, four types of work-life satisfaction were identified: work-life satisfaction, work-life dissatisfaction, work satisfaction, and life satisfaction. There was a significant difference in the type of work-life satisfaction among married waged workers based on sex, age, educational level, and average monthly income. Additionally, there was a significant difference in the type of work-life satisfaction for all workplace-related variables, namely, weekly working hours, full-time employment, job stability, business type, and family-friendly leave policies. In particular, proportionally higher values of work-life satisfaction were evident among the workers in companies with family-friendly leave policies such as paid leave, menstrual leave, maternity leave, childcare leave, and family events leave, whereas there was a high rate of work-life dissatisfaction among the workers in companies without family-friendly leave policies.

Objective: This study examined the effects of social support and resilience on life satisfaction of child care teachers. Methods: This study was conducted by sampling 162 child care teachers who participated in job training courses in the Gyeongsangbuk-do region. Three kinds of variables, which included social support, resilience, and life satisfaction were measured. The collected data were analyzed using PASW 18.0 program for windows. Results: First, social support, resilience, and life satisfaction of the child care teachers were generally above normal. The resilience subscale showed the highest score in 'affirmative', followed by 'interpersonal ability', 'self-control ability'. And the 'support of colleagues' was higher than 'support of superior' in the social support's subscale. Next, there were no significant differences in social support by child care teachers' background, but there were significant differences in resilience and life satisfaction of child care teachers' according to their working center types and academic levels. Second, life satisfaction was positively correlated with social support, and resilience. The 'affirmative', 'support of superior' variables were factors that predicted life satisfaction. Conclusion/Implications: We suggested ways to increase the life satisfaction of child care teachers through the 'affirmative' and 'support of superior' variables.

Objectives: While the risk of depression is expected to substantially increase among older adults receiving community care, leisure life satisfaction can be regarded as a key component in enhancing the mental health of those receiving community care. However, it is not yet known whether community care utilization increases the risk of depression, or what role is played by leisure life satisfaction in these settings. This study investigated the relationship between community care utilization and depression, as well as the main effect and the moderating role of leisure life satisfaction on the link between community care utilization and depression among older adults. Methods: This study, using the 2019 Korean Welfare Panel Survey, conducted multiple regression analysis on data from 4494 elderly people aged 65 years or older. Results: After controlling for potential covariates, older community care recipients were more likely to report symptoms of depression than those who did not receive community care. Meanwhile, leisure life satisfaction was negatively associated with depression in older adults. The test for interaction between community care utilization and leisure life satisfaction revealed that leisure life satisfaction significantly attenuated the link between depression and community care utilization. Conclusions: The findings of this study imply that leisure life satisfaction could play a meaningful role in improving the mental health of older adults receiving community care. Welfare policies affecting older adults should consider leisure life satisfaction as an important resource for reducing depression in community care settings.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the correlation between the feeling of powerlessness, social support and life satisfaction in the elderly. Methods: The subjects were 158 old people aged over 65 who were attending one of one college and three settlement houses for senior citizens located in B city. Results: The relationship between the feeling of powerlessness and life satisfaction was in a moderate negative correlation with each other (r=-.433, p=.000). The relationship between social support and life satisfaction was in a moderate positive correlation with each other (r=.410, p=.000). It was found that the higher social support was, the higher life satisfaction was. There was remarkable difference in the form of family (F=2.69, p=.023), the form of residence (F=5.29, p=.002), whether to belong to a group (F=2.26, p=.025). Conclusion: For the reasons stated above, as the feeling of powerlessness is lower and social support is higher, life satisfaction is higher. The results clearly show that in order to improve life satisfaction of the elderly, we need to ease their feeling of powerlessness and enhance social support to them. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a nursing intervention program to reduce powerlessness and to improve social support for the elderly.

이 연구는 장애와 그에 따른 부가적 실체(낙인, 편견, 차별,, 사회적 제약 등)들로 인해 낮은 삶의 만족도를 나타내는 장애인들의 삶의 만족도 변화양상을 종단적으로 살펴보고, 그에 대한 예측요인으로서 사회자본의 구성개념인 네트워크와 사회참여의 영향력을 파악하는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 2차~5차 장애인고용패널조사 자료를 활용해, 3206명을 대상으로 잠재성장모형 분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과, 장애인의 삶의 만족도는 시간이 흐를수록 감소하는 경향을 나타냈으며, 초기 높은 삶의 만족도를 나타낸 장애인의 경우 시간이 흐를수록 완만하게 감소하고, 낮은 삶의 만족도를 나타낸 장애인의 경우 가파르게 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 삶의 만족에 영향을 미치는 네트워크와 사회참여의 영향력을 살펴보면, 네트워크는 삶의 만족도 초기 값에 정적인 영향을, 변화율에는 부적인 영향을 미쳤다. 사회참여는 삶의 만족도 초기 값에 정적인 영향을 미쳤으나, 변화율에는 영향을 미치지 못하였다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 실천적 개입방안과 정책적 함의를 제시하였다.

The aims of this study were to identify (a) the social network contact frequency of the elderly with children, relatives, and friends; (b) the impact of contact frequency (face-to-face/non-face-to-face) on life satisfaction of the elderly; and (c) the moderating effect of digital capabilities of the elderly on the relationship between social contact frequency and life satisfaction. Data were obtained from the National Survey of Older Koreans 2020. The sample comprised 6,119 adults aged 65+ who were in single or couple households. The principal findings were as follows. First, couple households, higher levels of education, and better health status increased life satisfaction of the elderly. Second, the higher the frequency of face-to-face contact with children and the higher the frequency of non-face-to-face contact with friends, the more positive the effect on life satisfaction of the elderly. Third, the interaction effect of the digital capabilities of the elderly differed according to children, relatives and friends. There was a significant and positive moderating effect on the relationship between life satisfaction and the frequency of face-to-face/non-face-to-face contact with children and the frequency of face-to-face contact with relatives. Conversely, there was a significant negative effect on the relationship between life satisfaction and the frequency of face-to-face/non-face-to-face contact with friends. By examining the impact of non-face-to-face contact on life satisfaction of the elderly in the era of digital transformation, the findings have significance in that they provide basic data to support policies and education programs aimed at improving the digital capabilities of the elderly.
