동남권 대학 졸업자의 수도권 2차 유출 요인 연구

Abstract

Not only in Korean society as a whole, but also in the Southeastern region, the outflow of young people to the metropolitan area has been intensified. To understand this phenomenon, we need to pay attention to their job values. According to previous studies, the job values of young people are influenced by the “self-development discourse.” This shows the probability that their development value will affect the outflow to the metropolitan area as a place where individual development is experienced. Since the Southeastern region has unique characteristics as industrial city, college graduates in this region are likely to be affected by this structural aspect, which provides a reason to study the youth of this region separately. In this study, by analyzing the Graduate Occupational Mobility Survey from 2013 to 2019, their job values were analyzed employing exploratory factor analysis, which rendered four factors (environment, development, task, and reputation). Using binomial logistic regression, the effect of each job value on the outflow of graduates from the Southeastern area to the metropolitan area was analyzed. It was found that the development value had a positive effect on the outflow to the metropolitan area, and the task and reputation values had negative effects. This suggests that the self-development discourse is working for graduates in the Southeastern region.
