AB - This study aims to examine whether the digital literacy competence of North Korean defectors living alone affects their life satisfaction, with social capital and digital information self-efficacy serving as mediators.
To achieve this, responses from 213 single-person households in the 2022 Digital Divide Survey on North Korean defectors were analyzed using structural equation modeling. The results showed that, first, digital literacy competence did not directly influence life satisfaction. Second, digital literacy competence was found to enhance life satisfaction through the mediation of social capital. Third, digital literacy competence also improved life satisfaction via digital information self-efficacy. Fourth, it was revealed that digital literacy competence sequentially mediated life satisfaction through both social capital and digital information self-efficacy. Based on these findings, practical and policy alternatives for strengthening digital literacy competence, fostering social capital, and enhancing digital information self-efficacy are proposed.
