ABSTRACT Provision of informal care is declining in South Korea. Informal caregiving is examined in South Korea using longitudinal data. The results are that women with a dependent disengage more from caregiving than men; caregivers are young rather than old, and more frequently live in rural areas. They receive more financial transfers from non-cohabiting relatives and have fewer children than non-caregivers with a dependent adult. Both caregivers and non-caregivers are less likely than those without a dependent adult to give money to non-cohabiting relatives. Educational level does not influence the probability of having a dependent relative or, among people with a dependent, of being a caregiver. Among people with a dependent adult, wage earners are more likely to provide care than the unemployed. The time spent in caregiving depends more on the dependent’s demand than on the caregiver’s capacity to provide support.

谁（仍然）在乎？2006–2012年韩国成年家属的非正式照料方式

摘要在韩国，提供非正规护理的人数正在下降。韩国使用纵向数据对非正式照料进行了检查。结果是，有抚养人的女性比男性更多地脱离了照料。照料者是年轻人，而不是老人，并且更多地生活在农村地区。他们从非同居亲戚那里获得更多的经济转账，并且与有抚养成人的非照料者相比，孩子更少。照料者和非照料者都比没有受抚养成人的人向非同居亲戚付钱的可能性低。受教育程度不影响有受抚养亲属或在有受抚养者中成为照料者的可能性。在有受抚养成人的人中，工薪阶层比失业者更有可能提供照料。
