영문 초록

In case the young generation’s attitude toward the elderly is negative, we need to try to change it positively. Especially, as the university students are the generations to participate in social atmosphere and policy for the elderly’s self-reliance and public support system in the future, their attitude toward the elderly is very important. The result of this research is as follows. First, in case of university student’s attitude toward the elderly, male students showed more positive attitude toward the elderly compared to female students and as grandparents are showing strong attachment to grandson compared to granddaughter and grandsons, compared to granddaughter, feel more intimacy to grandparents as well. Second, university student’s recognition of successful aging did not show difference according to gender or age, but it showed difference according to residence. Third, university students recognized that successful aging is important as they have positive attitude toward the elderly and elderly people s adaptation and interpersonal relations and elderly welfare had statistically significant influence to recognition of successful aging. In addition, as the question of how we can live successful life in old age is not the only interest of the elderly, it is necessary to examine the young generation’s recognition of successful aging.
