이 연구는 남녀대학생의 성별, 연령, 사회계층별 특성에 따른 가족건강성, 주관적 건강, 생활만족도에 대한 영향을 고찰하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위해 부산지역 S대학교 사회복지학부에 재학 중인 대학생 124명을 설문 조사하였다. 통계분석은 SPSS 26.0을 활용하여 상관분석과 중다회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과 첫째, 남녀대학생의 가족건강성, 주관적 건강, 생활만족도에서 성별에 따른 차이는 없었고, 연령은 생활만족도에서만 차이를 보였다. 반면, 사회계층은 연령을 제외한 모든 변인과의 관계에서 유의한 차이가 있었다. 둘째, 사회계층이 높다고 지각할수록 가족건강성과 주관적 건강에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 사회계층과 연령이 높을수록 생활만족도 또한 상승하는 것으로 확인되었다. 즉, 대학생이 지각한 사회계층별 특성은 가족건 강성과 주관적 건강, 생활만족도에 영향을 미치는 중요한 요인임을 발견하였다. 이 연구결과로 사회계층별 특성에 따라 세분화한 가족건강성 증진과 체계적인 가족상담의 방안을 논의하였다.
