Abstract

In this paper, The purpose of this qualitative research was to explore the experience of the Family Strengths of Married Migrant Women. The study was conducted on 18 immigrant women. Data collection was conducted in two focus groups of nine from May 15 to July 13, 2017, and interviews were conducted one time per group. The interview took about one and a half hours to two and a half hours per session. The data collected by the Focus Group interviews were analyzed using Colaizzi's Phenomenological Research Method. Research has resulted in four categories and a set of 11 theme clusters. The essential structures include "water and oil", "greed for children's education", "to make matters worse" and "family strength following the resolution path getting stronger". In conclusion, understanding the family strength experience of married immigrant women could be used as a basic resource for establishing policies to improve the family strength of married immigrant women.

본 연구는 결혼이주여성의 가족건강성 경험의 의미와 그 본질을 파악하기 위한 질적 연구이다. 연구 참여자는 결혼이주여성 18명을 대상으로 하였다. 자료 수집은 2017년 5월 15일부터 7월13일까지 9명씩 2개의 포커스 그룹을 구성하여 면담을 실시하였으며 면담은 한 집단 당 1회씩 시행하였다. 1회당 인터뷰는 1시간 30분에서 2시간 30분 정도 소요되었다. 포커스 그룹 인터뷰로 수집된 자료를 Colaizzi의 현상학적 연구방법을 활용하여 분석하였다. 연구 결과 4개의 범주와 11개의 주제모음(theme clusters)으로 도출되었다. 본질적 구조로는 '물과 기름', '자녀교육에 대한 욕심', '설상가상', '해결의 길을 따라 튼튼해지는 가족건강' 등으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 결혼이주여성의 가족건강성 경험을 이해하는 것은 결혼 이주여성의 가족건강성을 증진시키기 위한 정책수립에 대한 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
