The present study examines individuals` attitudes toward welfare-related values, tax increase to expand welfare, and the expansion of welfare services in different areas. The study model includes class/stratum-related factors, age, gender, welfare status, education, and political ideology as explanatory factors. Quantitative analyses were performed using data from 2013 Korean Welfare Panel study. The main results are as follows. First, those with middle income levels and politically moderate, as well as those with lower income levels and politically liberal, were more likely to support welfare values and policies. Second, sex and age did not have consistent results on welfare preference. Women prefer redistribution than economic development, and men were more likely to support tax increase to expand welfare, and the expansion of welfare services in different areas. Although younger people supported most welfare values and policies, only older people were more likely to support tax increase to expand welfare. Third, employment status and education level had limited effects on welfare attitude differences. Fourth, welfare status affected preference on the expansion of welfare services in some areas.??? ????????? 2015?????? ??????(?????????????????????)??? ???????????? ????????????????????? ????????? ?????? ????????? ?????? ???????????????(No. 2015R1A5A7037751)
