Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the dynamic changes of poverty and mental health through a longitudinal approach based on social causation. For this purpose, 622 new poverty entrants and 10,061 persistently non-poor individuals were sampled using the data used in the Korea Welfare Panel Study (1st-13th waves). The analysis method used Latent Growth Curve Model and Multi-Group Analysis. As a result of the analysis, first, the subjects' depression was recovered over time. Second, the new poverty group showed high depression over time. Third, the difference in depression between the new and persistent non-poverty groups was found to be consistent. Fourth, it was confirmed that women in the new poverty group and those with drinking problems were more vulnerable to mental health problems than the persistent non-poverty group. The results of this study suggest that a stronger social intervention on mental health access of the poverty subjects should be made, and anti-poverty policies based on the resilience of poverty are needed.
