본 연구는 아동의 학습 과제 수행 이후에 보이는 부모와 아동의 정서적 반응이 문화에 따라 어떠한 차이를 나타내는지 알아보기 위해 한국계 이민자 가정과 백인가정을 대상으로 실시하였다. 미국 서북부 시애틀 지역의 8에서 9세 사이의 자녀를 둔 31 한국계 가정과 31백인 가정이 연구에 참여하였다. 연구를 위해 각 가정을 방문하였고 각 가정의 부모와 아동의 정서 반응을 비디오로 촬영하여 비교 분석하였다. 컴퓨터를 이용한 초 단위 행동 분석 결과 아동이 과제에 실패했을 때 한국계 어머니들과 아동들의 긴장과 불안 행동이 미국 백인 어머니들과 아동들보다 더 많이 나타났다. 아동의 과제 실패시, 어머니들의 부정적인 정서표현도 한국계 이민자 가정에서 더 많이 표출되었다. 아동들이 과제에 성공했을 때는 미국 백인 어머니들과 아동들이 좀 더 긍정적인 정서 반응을 많이 하였고 특히 백인 어머니들이 적극적 칭찬 등의 긍정적인 피드백을 주었다. 흥미 있게 아동들의 과제 성공 후에도 한국계 이민자 가정의 어머니들이 부정적인 정서 표출이 더 많았다. 자녀의 성에 따른 상호작용의 차이를 알아본 결과, 한국계 이민자 가정에서는 성차가 나타나지 않았고 미국 백인 가정의 부모들이 남자아이들에게 더 긍정적인 정서 표현을 보였다.

'Hyao' has been studied by several Korean psychiatrists, mostly in relation to Oedipus complex and psychopathological implications. The present authors propose that 'Hyao' should be understood as being broader and more basic in its meaning and functions which are listed as the follows. 1) Hyao as an attachment, mutual dependence and basic trust between the generations. 2) Hyao as a control mechanism of aggression between the generations. 3) Hyao as a control and resolving mechanism of oedipus complex. 4) Hyao as an organizer of personality development and self-actualization. These functions of Hyao were integrated in a developmental perpective and, the role and responsibilities of parents in promoting and offering their model behavior for positive identification were discussed. 'Hyao' is suggested as being primarily mutual attachment and reverence(respect) between the generations which promote healthy resolutions of issues and conflicts of each developmental stage to be followed.

This study tries to analyse the relationship between sexual attitudes and behaviors on the one hand and parent-child relationships on the other among college students in Korea. 1,237 students from different areas were surveyed. Sexual attitudes are subdivided into four aspects, namely, permissiveness, instrumentality, emotional exchange, and responsibility, and sexual behaviors into indirect and direct ones. Results are as follow. First, sexual attitudes and behaviors among the subjects are found being different, depending on such variables as sex, religion and dating experiences. Secondly, while being related with both indirect and direct sexual behaviors, the variable of co-residence with parents is significantly related with the aspect of permissiveness, but not with the other three aspects. Thirdly, the parent-child communication is significantly related with sexual attitudes. One who has an open pattern of communication with parents tends to have more desirable sexual attitudes and is better able to control sexual behaviors.
