본 연구의 목적은 노인의 지역사회 계속 거주와 관련하여 주요하게 다 루어지는 정주의식의 결정요인을 실증함에 있다. 특히 전기·후기노인이라 는 연령별 특성을 중심으로 두 집단 간 정주의식 결정요인 중 주거환경 만족의 하위요인별 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 규명하고자 시도되었다. 조사 대상은 울산광역시 5개 구군 노인복지관을 이용하는 노인 중 총 503명을 조사하였다. 5개 구군에 고른 표집과 전기 및 후기노인으로 구 분하여 조사하기 위해 구·군별, 연령대별 할당표집을 적용하였다. 주요 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 전기노인의 정주의식을 결정하는 요인으로 판 별된 주거환경만족 하위요인 중 주택, 치안·교통안전, 이웃 간 교류, 지 역환경 전반이 통계적으로 유의하였다. 둘째, 후기노인의 정주의식 결정 요인으로는 통제변수에서 지역변인이, 주거환경만족에서 치안·교통안전, 이웃 간 교류가 통계적으로 유의했다. 마지막으로 노인의 정주의식 결정 요인은 지역, 주거환경만족의 하위요인에서 주택, 치안·교통안전, 이웃 간 교류, 지역환경 전반이 통계적으로 유의했다. 특히 이웃 간 교류는 모 든 모형에서 정주의식을 가장 크게 설명하는 변인으로 밝혀졌다. 이러한 분석 결과를 바탕으로 노인의 정주의식 함양을 위한 공동체 정신 패러다 임의 정책 입안, 전기와 후기노인 차이에 대한 고려, 주거정책 개선을 위 한 케어안심주택의 추가 도입을 제언하였다.

This study aims to present the policy issues and direction of sub-urban residential complex by analyzing the settlement environment and life satisfaction. For the purpose, 10 sub-urban residential complexes in Chungnam Province were surveyed for general situation, physical environment, social environment, economic environment. The results are as follows; 1) The satisfaction in the physical environment is more higher in case of the complex created by the public organization. 2) The physical environment is an important factor in the determinant of the settlement, while the economic environment have a relatively lower impact. 3) The residents community is the more active, the satisfaction in the social environment is the more improved. 4) The source of income or the activity of consumption doesn't have an effect on the satisfaction in the economic environment. On the basis of this study, three programs for improvement of sub-urban residential complex policy were suggested. First, the various information and counseling service should be provided to attract city dwellers. Second, the policy on the development of sub-urban residential complex has to consider residential preference factors and improve the quality of life. Third, to increase the life satisfaction, the residents community should be activated and especially the activation of community with residents in other village is very important.

The objective of this research was to analyze the determinants of demand for residential settlements in rural societies. A significant aspect of the demand analysis was to consider depopulation classification as a moderating variable with a view to its role as an essential dividing factor of socioeconomic characteristics and physical environments of the areas of concern. The data collection for analysis was divided according to types of depopulation into the three categories of less developed, stagnated, and developed areas. For the cause and effect analysis between the residential demand and factors of settlement, the ordered probit model was applied. Significant determinants of settlement demand unfolded according to depopulation types. In the case of less developed areas, residential demand was affected significantly by the factors of daily life convenience and public facilities. Key settlement demand determinants of stagnated regions included the aspects of basic natural environment, daily life convenience and education. Meanwhile, key settlement demand determinants for developed areas included education and agriculture economic aspects. The importance-performance analysis was also applied to a set of settlement characteristics of rural communities to figure out the settlement factors requiring urgent endeavor to improve.
