본 연구는 정부의 보육료 지원 증가에도 불구하고, 가구에서 체감하는 교육 및 보육료 부담이 감소되지 못한다는 문제점에서 비롯하여 추가비용으로 지출되는 특별활동 비용에 미치는 요인을 살펴보는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 한국아동패널 4차년도 자료를 사용하여 분석한 결과, 기관 내 특별활동 여부는 있음이 68.5%였으며, 평균적으로 2.9개의 특별활동을 이용하는 것으로 나타났다. 월평균 지출비용은 약 50천원이었다. 지역에 따라 특별활동 이용개수 및 지출비용을 살펴본 결과 지역 간의 차이는 통계적으로 유의하였다. 변수를 단계적으로 투입하여 특별활동 비용 지출에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분석한 결과, 모 학력, 모 취업, 육아지원기관 유형, 지역변인이 유의한 것으로 나타났으며, 이중 지역변인이 가장 큰 설명량을 차지하였다. 연구결과를 바탕으로 몇 가지의 정책적 시사점을 도출하였다. 첫째, 특별활동 과목 내용 및 비용에 대한 구체적인 실태파악과 관리감독이 이루어져야 한다. 둘째, 중앙정부차원에서의 필요경비에 대한 구체적인 기준제시가 필요하다. 셋째, 어린이집뿐만 아니라 유치원 등 아동이 이용하는 육아지원기관 전반에 걸쳐 특별활동 과목, 강사, 비용, 강사의 경력 등을 공개하고 주기적으로 모니터링해야 한다. 넷째, 취약계층 아동에 대한 특별활동 지원이 요구된다.

The purpose of this study was to identify factors affecting extra expenses incurred by extracurricular activities, prompted by the problem that the financial burden on households for their children's education and child-care is not showing enough signs of being mitigated, despite increased child-care subsidies from the government. Data for this study was obtained from the 4th Panel Study on Korean Children of Korea Institute of Child Care and Education. The analysis of the study shows that 68.5% of the surveyed children were participating in extracurricular activities and the average number of extracurricular activities they took part in was 2.9. The average extracurricular expenditure was 50.000 won. However, based on the findings of the survey, it was statistically significant to find that the number of extracurricular activities the children participated in and the expenditure the households spent on them varied by area. Variables were inserted in a gradual manner in identifying factors influencing households' expenditure on children's extracurricular activities. The results showed that amongst the variables used, the education level of the mother, the employment status of the mother, the type of the child-care support institution, and the household's place of residence featured prominently, with the place-of-residence factor accounting for most of the reason why a household spent the amount it did. The outcome of the study bears four policy implications: First, there is a need for a specific evaluation of the contents and costs of extracurricular activities and supervision and management of such activities. Second, it is necessary for the central government to provide a specific criteria of necessary expense. Third, throughout the child support agency, the courses and costs of special activities should be monitored regularly. Fourth, there should be extracurricular activity support for underprivileged children.
