ABSTRACT

The objective of this study is to determine whether the experience of social welfare service affects the perception of welfare policy in the sense of institutional perspective. Especially, this study concentrates on the change of perception in welfare clients towards the program-specific goal and the general goal of social welfare service for the elderly. In order to do so, the double difference analysis using propensity score matching is used. The result of this analysis shows that the experience of social welfare service changes the clients' perception. The perception on the general goal, however, is changed by long term experience of the service. This result displays the feasibility of institutional theory, especially welfare clientele within Korea. It also raises the need to consider the change of welfare perception not only in the aspect of institutional interest, but also in the aspect of the effect of social learning.
