配偶者選擇 決定에 미치는 要因 및 重要度에 관한 硏究 = A Study on The Importance and The Factors Influencing Mate Selection

국문 초록 (Abstract)

본 연구의 목적은 배우자 선택이 관련되는 요인들과 배우자 선택시의 조건의 중요도를 알아보고자 하였다.
배우자 선택에 관한 연구가 가족학의 기초분야임에도 불구하고 실제 미약한 상태이다. 특히 한국에서는 실제 조사뿐만 아니라 이론 연구도 제대로 진행되지 못하고 있다.
본 연구는 외국에서 논의되고 있는 이론적 관점들을 크게 사회교환적 모델과 여과론적 모델을 중심으로 구조화 시켜 보았으며, 실제 현상 파악의 기초를 제공하고자 관련요인들을 전반적으로 조사 분석하였다.
그 결과 배우자 선택 현상에서 한국 가족의 정통성이 많이 사라지고 개인주의적으로 진행되고 있었다.
특히 현대 배우자 선택 현상은 내적 특성인 사랑, 건강, 성격, 가치 생활력 등이 중요시 되고있음을 알수 있었다.
