Purpose: The purpose of this study was to establish a structural equatios model on social roles and health for married working mothers. to determine the effects of social roles on Korean women’s health and to explore the mediating role of self-esteem in the relationship between social roles qualities and health.
Method: Data were collected from 323 employed women with partner and children, lived in Seoul and near Seoul. Response rate was 62.3%. The instruments for measurements were Role Quality Scale developed by Park et al. (1999), Rosenberg’s Self-Esteem Scale, and 31 items from SF-36 developed by Ware & Sherboune(1992).
Results: The effect of marital role quality on self-esteem and the effect of parental role quality on health were not significant. Modification model fitted with the collected data very well, as evidenced by the small chi-square(0.58). the very high goodness-of-fit (GFI=1.00). and adjusted goodness-of-fit(AGFI=0.99). and very small root mean square residual(RMSR=0.0072). and the slope of Q-plot is over 1.41% of the variance in self-esteem and 21% of the variance in health were accounted for by these variables.
Conclusion: Further research concerned with the mediating effects of self-esteem in the role and health relationship should be covered the issue of various role combinations. And it is necessary to examine the influence of subfactor of quality of social roles on health.
