도서지역 주민의 젠더 감수성에 영향을 미치는 생태체계 변인 연구

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the level of gender sensitivity of the residents of the island area, and to identify the ecological system variables that affect gender sensitivity. Among the 14 eups and myeons located in Sinan-gun, Jeollanam-do, residents of 4 eups and myeons (Abhae, Map, Heuksan, and Bigeum) with high geographical accessibility and contact frequency with external regions through the Yeonryuk and Year project. This is because it is judged that there will be a change in the perception of gender sensitivity depending on the geographic and temporal characteristics of the island region. The gender sensitivity of island residents is measured by survey questions selected through review of previous studies. Gender sensitivity is classified into the factors of gender discrimination and gender role stereotype through factor analysis of the survey results. It analyzes the difference in gender sensitivity according to the population's demographic and sociological background, and statistically significant differences appear according to gender, age, occupation, education, and number of years of residence. In particular, in the'occupation' variable, the simple labor workers and the non-educated in the'educational' variable have high recognition of gender discrimination and gender role stereotypes. Next, we analyze the influence of ecological system variables on gender sensitivity. A hierarchical multiple regression analysis is conducted to examine the relative influence of the variables of the ecological system. As a result, it is found that the “professional life perception” of the macroscopic system has a significant influence on the gender sensitivity of the residents of the islands. In the case of islands, especially male-centered occupational awareness is strong, and males are often carrying out agricultural and fishery managers, business owners, and representatives of specific meetings. This study confirms that the gender-separated occupational environment not only imprints a fixed image on men or women, but also that a gender-consistent image in a specific occupation can have a significant impact on an individual's gender sensitivity. This study is meaningful in that it seeks to find out the factors that influence gender sensitivity based on the perceptions of residents in islands. In particular, research on islands is a situation that hardly proceeds due to the limitation of accessibility, and it is significant that the extent of the research subject has been expanded. However, limitations such as generalization of research results are also pointed out.
