This study examines the problems of children exposed to family violence. As a result, the children exposed to family violence exhibit various emotional, behavioral and social problems and distorted perceptions and inappropriate reactions toward family violence. Based on these results and existing programs for children exposed family violence, an integrative group program has been devised. The program was applied to two groups of the children and an experimental study was conducted to examine its effectiveness on emotional problems, aggressiveness, social skills and perceptions/reactions toward family violence. As a result, the experimental groups have shown an overall significant improvement in scores on emotional problems, aggressiveness, social skills and perceptions/reactions toward family violence. The study offers the following recommendations for clinical social work practice. First, great efforts to alleviating the problems of children exposed to family violence should be made continually. Second, special attention should be paid to reflect the characteristics of our own culture in clinical social work intervention and to do so, various practical intervention skills suitable to our culture should be developed. Finally, many different intervention models for children exposed family violence should be developed and researches comparing those models should be carried out.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of a comparative process so that students majoring in urban planning and design can develop the ability to present non-physical alternatives along with the ability to present alternatives to a physical environment to solve urban problems. A total of 30 students majoring in urban planning and urban design were analyzed for their satisfaction with their majors, intention to find a job related to their majors, and academic achievement. This was done after conducting a comparative course of living-lab projects utilizing idle space in a region in connection with a major education course for about a year. For the analysis, the four-group design used by Solomon was used to find the differences between students who participated in the class and those who did not. The analysis showed that the students who participated in the comparative course of the living-lab project were highly satisfied with their major and their intention to find a job related to their major. The results of this study suggest that the process of cultivating the ability to work with local residents and merchants to present physical and non-physical alternatives to solve local problems by utilizing the means of living lab projects has a positive effect on the students' attachment to their majors and their self-esteem.
