Abstract

Purpose of the study : The purpose of this study was to analyze research on Christian infant parents in terms of research period, research content, and research method, and seek directions for research projects related to Christian infant parents. Research content and methods : For this study, domestic master's and doctoral dissertation published from 1995 to 2023 by the national assembly library and the research information sharing service (RISS) were collected under the categories 'Christianity', 'infant', 'infancy', and 'parent'. A total of 40 studies were extracted by searching with these keywords and excluding redundant studies. In addition, the frequency and percentage were calculated by classifying and analyzing the results into three criteria: research period, research content, and research method. Conclusions and Recommendations : Research on Christian infant parents increased significantly between 2016 and 2020, with 10 studies (25%) conducted during this period, indicating a more active engagement in this area compared to other times. Master's theses accounted for 39 studies (97.5%), while doctoral dissertation comprised 1 study (2.5%), suggesting a predominance of research at the master's level. Regarding the content of the research on Christian infant parents, practice studies accounted for 34 studies (85%), while basic research accounted for 6 studies (15%). Field-related studies such as the development of parental education programs and materials for infants continued to be carried out steadily, but there was a lack of theoretical, philosophical, perceptual, and factual investigation research on Christian infant parents. Methodologically, literature reviews were prevalent, with 27 studies (67.5%), followed by quantitative studies with 10 studies (25%), and qualitative studies with 3 studies (7.5%). Various types of research, including quantitative, qualitative, and literature reviews, were conducted between 2016 and 2020. Based on the research findings, in-depth qualitative studies conducted through observation and interviews, as well as mixed-method studies complementing single studies, should be conducted for a long-term perspective on research involving Christian infant and child parents.

연구 목적 : 기독교 영아기 부모 관련 연구를 연구시기, 연구내용, 연구방법으로 분석하여 기독교 영아기 부모 관련 연구과제 방향을 모색하고자 하였다. 연구 내용 및 방법 : 본 연구를 위해 1995년부터 2023년까지 출간된 국회도서관과 학술연구정보서비스(RISS)에서 국내 석·박사학위논문을 '기독교', '영아', '영아기', '부모'를 주제어로 검색하여 중복된 연구목록을 정리하여 총 40편을 추출하였다. 또한, 연구시기, 연구내용, 연구방법의 3가지 준거로 분류하고 분석하여 빈도와 백분율을 산출하였다. 결론 및 제언 : 기독교 영아기 부모 관련 연구는 2016-2020년 10편(25%)의 연구가 이루어져 다른 시기보다 기독교 영아기 부모 관련 연구가 활발하게 이루어졌다. 석사학위논문은 39편(97.5%), 박사학위논문은 1편(2.5%)으로 석사학위논문 중심으로 연구가 이루어졌다. 연구 내용에 따른 기독교 영아기 부모 관련 연구에서 실천연구는 34편(85%), 기초연구는 6편(15%)로 나타났다. 기독교 영아기 부모 관련 연구에서 부모교육 프로그램 개발, 영아용 공과교재 개발 등의 현장 관련 연구는 지속적으로 이루어졌으나, 기독교 영아기 부모 관련 이론, 철학, 인식 및 실태 조사 연구가 부족하였다. 연구 방법에 따른 기독교 영아기 부모 관련 연구에서 문헌연구 27편(67.5%), 양적연구 10편(25%), 질적연구 3편(7.5%)으로 문헌연구 중심으로 연구가 이루어졌다. 2016-2020년에 양적연구, 질적연구, 문헌연구가 다양하게 이루어졌다. 연구결과를 토대로 장기적 관점으로 기독교 유아기와 아동기 부모 연구, 관찰 및 면담으로 이루어진 심층적 질적연구, 단일연구를 보완할 수 있는 혼합연구 방법의 기독교 영아기 부모 관련 연구가 이루어져야 한다.
