주택 소유 및 아파트 거주에 따른 19~39세 여성의 출산: 제 8기 국민건강영양조사를 활용한 복합표본분석 = Childbirth by Housing Ownership and Apartment Residence in Women Aged 19-39 Years: A Comprehensive Sample Analysis Using the 8th National Health and Nutrition Survey

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Korea's birth rate is the lowest in the world, reaching 0.81 in 2021. During the same period, newlyweds and young people encountered difficulties in establishing a home. Thus, to increase the fertility rate and design suitable population policies for this purpose, it was believed necessary to confirm the relationship between home ownership and residence in apartments with childbirth among women between 19 and 39 years of age. In this study, 2,311 women aged between 19 and 39 were shortlisted as the final study participants from the 22,599 subjects who were included in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey conducted in 2019, 2020, and 2021. Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed on the obtained data. The results showed that the probability of childbirth was higher among single homeowners (odds ratio [OR]: 1.692, 95% CI: 1.097-2.609) than among non-homeowners. The probability of childbirth was higher (OR: 1.888, 95% CI: 1.181-3.018) among individuals living in an apartment than those not living in an apartment. Therefore, methods must be established to provide high-quality apartments in good locations (commuting to work, education) to larger numbers of young people, those planning to get married, and newlyweds, to enhance the birth rate.
