This study focused on differences in factors of subjective well-being between children who are raised at their own homes and those raised at the residential institutions. This study used two kinds of data sets, one from survey on subjective well-being of children in residential care supported by National Research Foundation of Korea, the other from survey on children's subjective well-being in Korea conducted by Social welfare research center in Seoul National University and Save the Children Korea. The results are as follows; There are no significant difference statistically between children raised at their own homes and children raised at residential institutions in children's subjective well-being, satisfaction with him/herself, and satisfaction with school. However, there is higher satisfaction with family in children raised at their own homes. On the other hand, there is higher satisfaction with community in children raised at residential institutions. There are difference factors effect on children's subjective well-being between the two groups.

여성주의 경제학자와 사회학자들은 부모의 아동양육시간이 여성과 아동의 경제적 복지에 미치는 중요한 함의에 대해 강조해왔다. 사회가 가족이 아동을 양육하는데 더 큰 지원을 제공해야 한다는 부모의 목소리가 커지고 있지만, 정작 어느 정도의 시간 자원이 아동을 양육하는데 투입되는지에 관해 연구된 바가 거의 없다. 기존의 연구들은 전체 생산 경제에서의 무급 노동의 경제적 가치의 비중에 초점을 두었다. 본 연구는 2004년 한국생활시간조사를 사용해 아동 양육에 투입된 부모의 시간을 추정하고 그 시간의 금전적 가치를 추정하는 것이 목적이다. 부모가 아동양육을 위해 투입한 시간의 경제적 가치는 시장 노동을 통해 벌어들인 소득에 비교해 볼 때 상당한 비중을 차지하고 있다. 아동이 소비하는 재화와 서비스를 생산하는 데 있어 무급 노동의 역할은 시장 노동에 참여하지 않고 있는 사람들에게 특히 중요하다. 아동을 양육하는 모의 노력은 대개 무급 노동의 형태를 띠고 있는데, 부모의 시장노동만큼이나 아동 복지를 향상시키는데 기여하고 있다. 전체 경제 차원에서의 무급 노동의 비중과 그 경제적 가치에 대한 연구 성과들과 별개로, 부모의 아동 양육 시간의 비중과 경제적 가치의 추정은 전체 경제 가운데 인적 자본부문에 대한 무급 노동의 경제적 역할에 대해 중요한 정보를 제공한다.

Mothers of Children with Disabilities have many difficulties in parenting because of their children's disabilities. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a Group music psychotherapy programs on parenting stress and self efficacy, and to explore the experiences of the mothers who participated in the program. Twenty mothers of children with disabilities participated in this study. These twenty mothers were divided into 10 mothers of each group. The Experimental group participated in the Group music psychotherapy programs, while the control group did not. The Group music psychotherapy program was implemented for 8 weeks. To prove the effects of the program, pretest-posttest control group design was applied. The differences between pre-test and post-test of two groups were analyzed using independent t-test. The quantitative results of the study were as follows: First, a significant differences was found between the experimental group and control group in parenting stress level. Second, a significant differences was found between the experimental group and control group in self-efficacy level. From the qualitative analyses, four themes emerged from the decrement of parenting stress; Positive change of recognition about their children, Getting rid of stress, Keeping their composure, and Sharing of their emotions. And three themes emerged from the increment of self-efficacy; Discovery of oneself, New stimulus, and Mental support. All the result described above shows that group music psychotherapy program gives positive effect to decrease in parenting stress and also to increase in self-efficacy.

Objective : The purpose of this study is to provide evidence for a systematic analysis of occupational therapy interventions for the activity and participation of children and adolescents with developmental disabilities. Methods : The articles used in this study were collected from the RISS, KISS, and DBpia databases. The key words used were "children and occupational therapy" "children and sensory integration," "adolescent and occupational therapy," "adolescent and sensory integration," "developmental disorder and occupational therapy," and "developmental disorder and sensory integration." The research period was limited to January 2008 to August 2018. Seven articles in total were selected for systematic analysis. Results : Most of the included works were single-case studies, and most subjects dealt with the autism spectrum disorder. The majority of the interventions used involved sensory integration. Occupational therapy interventions were self-care (33%), major life area (33%), learning and application (11%), communication (11%), and mobility (11%). Conclusion : This study will help with understanding the current state of occupational therapy interventions for the activity and participation. On the basis of this understanding, various studies on this subject are expected to be conducted in the future.

There has been a growing number of research about children's development indicators and child well-being indicators. After the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) and concluding observations on the second report of Korea, the effort to monitor and measure children's rights and the use of child rights indicators has increased within policy and academic research. However, few indicators provide a realization of children's rights. The purpose of this paper was to analyze children's own perceptions of their rights and to develop a children's rights index to measure children's rights. In this study, a children's rights index was developed from 38 indicators categorized into nine components and four domains (survival rights, development rights, protection rights, and participation rights) to measure children's rights. Data were gathered from 17,000 elementary and middle school children and their parents in 16 cities. The survey revealed significant differences in the children's rights index by region and age group. There was also a correlation between the economic circumstances of both households and communities and the children's rights index. In the light of the findings, it is suggested that there is a need to increase public investment on children and to raise awareness of children's rights in order to improve children's rights and to decrease disparity.

과학교육에서는 과학과 기술과 관련된 사회적 또는 환경 문제의 증가를 더 이상 간과할 수가 없게 되었고, 이로 인해 과학-기술-사회-환경(Science-Technology, Society-the Environment: STSE)교육을 통한 실천적 과학 소양의 중요성이 대두되고 있다. 본 연구는 환경 내용을 다룬 초등학교 6학년 2학기 과학 단원, 3. 쾌적한 환경을 학습하는 과정에서 환경 중심 STSE 교육의 어려움과 그 가능성에 대하여 고찰하고자 하였다. 초등학교 6학년 두 개의 반 아동 86명은 단원 학습에 참여하는 동안 설문, 그리기와 쓰기, 면담에 참여하였다. 수집된 자료는 아동들의 과학-기술-사회-환경의 관련성에 대한 인식과 과학 지식의 실천적 소양이라는 측면에서 분석되었다. 결과로는 첫째, 과학-기술-사회-환경의 관계에 대한 아동들의 인식은 현대 사회가 가지고 있는 가치관과 복잡하게 얽혀 있었으며, 이 안에서 과학/기술의 발전은 사회 발전과 환경 문제의 두 측면에서 다소 상반적인 관계를 보였다. 둘째, 환경 문제에 대한 아동의 인식은 높은 반면 실천적 소양의 측면은 상대적으로 낮았다. 셋째 과학-환경 지식은 환경 문제 인식과 문제 해결에 그다지 영향을 미치지 않았다. 이러한 결과들을 바탕으로 본 논문은 실천적 과학 소양을 위한 과학-기술-사회-환경 교육의 문제점과 어려움에 대해 논의한다.

The model of family decision-making in child protection has been widely discussed and adopted in many countries. The purpose of this study was to introduce the model and, then, investigate whether this process is applicable in child care and protection services in Korea. The main goal in the study has been to explore the philosophical and practical foundations of the family involvement approach in decision-making and describe the international applications of the model. Family group conferencing, originally developed and enacted in New Zealand, has been critically examined. The potential contributions of the study may include seeking a more effective intervention for child protection through determining whether the model is appropriate or desirable in issues of philosophy, practice and policy within the Korean culture.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the mutual relationship between parenting stress and children's problem behaviors among those participating in dream start services. In order to verify the effect of parental and child effects on child's problem behavior and parenting stress based on repeated measures from the first grade of elementary school to the third grade of elementary school among children participating in dream start services, autoregressive cross-lagged modeling was applied. As a result, the stability coefficient showed that the two variables were significantly stable for 3 years. In other words, the measurement was maintained at a similar level with time. The causal relationship between parents 'parenting stress and child' s problem behavior was generally explained by the parental effect. In other words, parental stress is related to the child's problem behavior. These results show that the economic stress of poverty increases parents' parenting stress, which can negatively affect the adaptive development of children in the process of raising children.
