국내 일본계종교 신자들의 일본성 의식의 변화-2003년과 2010년 설문조사를 바탕으로-

Abstract

Now, there are 21 Japanese religious groups and sects in Korea,and the total number of their believers results in about 2 million people. Judging only from this figure, We know that Japanese religion is located in the 4th following Buddhism, Protestant, and Catholic as that scale in Korean religious groups. With such a numerical expansion,a change at the psychological dimension of Japanese religion believer has also occurred. It is already that they have ceased to be conscious of Japanese characters of their religion and faith activity gradually. This paper aims at measuring quantitatively the degree which Japanese believers are not conscious of Japanese characters contained in their religion and faith activity between 2003 and 2010,and investigating the cause of the change occurring in being conscious of Japanese characters. To put it concretely, I do the statistical work of the data which obtained from the questionnaire of Japanese believers carried out in 2003 and 2010. And I measure the grade which Japanese religion believers are conscious of Japanese characters of their religion and faith activities. Then, I compare the measurement result of both 2003 and 2010, and assure the change of that between 2003 and 2010. Continuously, I analyze statistically the correlation of the change of believers’ demographic attribute and faith feature and the change of the consciousness of Japanese characters between 2003and 2010.
