摘要

The aim of this research was to clarify Korean university students' image of single parent families and to find out what social factors influence their image. Questionnaires were given to 2000 Korean university students between October 2007 and November 2007. The valid responses were 1605, in other words, 80.3% of the total.rnThis paper analyzed three different fields. One was the university students' consciousness of their future life, including marriage. The second was their image of single parents bringing up children. The third was factors influencing their image of single parents bringing up children.rnThe findings are as follows: 1. Regarding their future, close to 80% of the Korean university students questioned wanted to experience life events such as getting a job, getting married and having a child in that order. 2. The image of single parents bringing up children differed according to the reasons why people were single parents, that is to say, whether the single parents were unmarried, or divorced, or widowed. The most negative image was that of single parents who were unmarried. The most acceptable image was of single parents who were widowed. 3. The Korean university students' positive image of single parents bringing up children on their own was mostly influenced by the public image of same. This demonstrated that socially constructed values can have a strong impact on university students.%近年韓国では，ひとり親家族の増加とともに，ひとrnり親になる理由にも変化がみられることから，ひとり親家rn族に関する関心が高まってきている．また，ひとり親家族rnに対する生活保障や生活支援をめぐり多くの課題が指摘さrnれ，現在は「ひとり親家族支援法」も施行されている．
