Abstract
This study multi-dimensionally examined the recently-aggravating social isolation of young adults in the capital area and non-capital area by focusing on its predictive factors. For this, the multiple regression analysis was conducted targeting total 521 young adults in their 19-39 by using the SPSS. In the results of this study, first, regardless of region, the age, relative deprivation, depression, and interpersonal relationship ability were the common factors that predicted isolation. Second, as the factors that could predict the isolation of young adults in the capital area, the matter of having a job, material deprivation, perception of housing had significant effects. Third, in regard of young adults in non-capital area, the controllability in case of economic crisis, and future prospect were significant. Based on such results, this study presented the integrated intervention measures for preventing the isolation of young adults, and especially discussed the policy direction and service measures by considering differences between capital area and non-capital area.
