다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Background: This study aimed to investigate the factors influencing childbirth intentions in individuals of the 2030 generation, with a focus on gender differences. The primary goal was to provide essential data for the development of policies that support childbirth. Methods: In this study, we conducted a survey on 190 individuals from the 2030 generation. After excluding three incomplete responses, we used a total of 187 datasets. The questionnaire consisted of 40 questions categorized into economic factors(9), personal factors(18), cultural factors(8), and subjective normative factors(5). General characteristics of the data were examined through frequency analysis. We conducted cross-analysis by gender to find out childbirth intentions and the preferred number of children. Gender-based differences in factors were identified using t-tests. Simple linear regression analysis was performed to find out the gender-based differences in the impact of factors on childbirth intentions. The significance level for all statistical analyses was set at p <0.05.
Results: The study revealed that among the respondents, 60.4% (n=113) expressed an intention to have children, while 39.6%(n=74) did not. Specifically, 72.2% of males expressed an intention to have children, whereas only 56.1% of females did (p <0.001).
When analyzing the difference in the impact on childbirth intention, there was a statistically significant difference between men 2.92(±0.70) and women 3.43(±0.48)(p <.01). When analyzing the differences in the impact of each factor on childbirth intention, for men, economic factors (+), personal factors(emotion) and subjective normative factors had a negative (-) influence (p <.001), and for women, personal factors(physical, emotion) and subjective normative factors had a negative (-) influence(p <.05).
Conclusion: It was found that women in the 2030 generation had lower intentions of childbirth than men, and women also had more factors affecting childbirth intention than men and were greatly affected. Therefore, this study proposes that the childbirth promotion policy requires detailed policies divided by gender.
