결혼이민여성을 위한 사회적 배제 척도(SES) 개발 및 타당도 검증

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to develop and explore the factorial structure of a Social Exclusion Scale (SES) and to test its validity for marriage immigrant women. The sample comprised 316 marriage immigrant women in rural areas. A total of 54 structural elements were developed from literature and validity testing was conducted by 6 professionals. The staff at the rural development administration visited each subject and made them complete a self-report questionnaire. After examining the adequacy of the scale through factor analysis, construct validity testing was conducted by exploratory factor analysis, which derived five factors: social participation and right, material deprivation, social relations, normative integration, and macro-social equity. In addition, the criterion validity of the social exclusion scale was calculated by correlation analysis using the Social Exclusion Index-for Health Surveys (SEI-HS) scale. Reliability was confirmed by internal consistency. This social exclusion scale (SES) thus proved to be useful for measuring the social exclusion status of marriage immigrant women.
