ABSTRACT
We analyzed the dynamics of the family system and the economic well-being by utilizing the socio-demographic, objective economic, and subjective economic factors of urban unemployed housewives. The survey was conducted in Seoul and three other major cities. The subjects included housewives in these areas who were currently cohabiting with their spouses and had at least one child. The preliminary and main survey questionnaires were distributed between November 12, 2001 and February 27, 2002. Three hundred five survey questionnaires were collected and analyzed. We applied the frequency, average, percentage, Pearson's correlation coefficient, Cronbach's, simple regression and multiple regression analysis by using SPSS/PC WIN. The findings were as follows. First, the mean score of the availability of life information was 3.21. Second, when the availability of life information increased, the dynamics of family system improved. Third, when the dynamics of family system worked well, the housewives experienced economic well-being.
