본 연구에서는 유아의 창의성과 아버지양육태도간의 관계를 비교 분석함으로서, 창의적인 유아의 아버지양육태도와 일반 유아의 아버지양육태도에는 어떤 차이가 있는지 알아보고 자녀양육에 있어서 창의적인 유아로 키울 수 있는 기초 자료를 제공하고자 하였다. 본 연구의 대상은 울산광역시에 위치한 유치원 9곳의 만 5세 96명(창의적인 유아 40명, 일반 유아 56명)과 아버지 96명이었다. 유아의 창의성검사는 Torrance 창의력 도형검사를 사용하였고, 아버지양육태도검사는 이종승, 오성심(1982)이 제작한 질문지를 사용하였다. 수집된 자료 분석을 위해 SPSS 10.0 for Windows를 사용하여 빈도분석, 신뢰도분석을 실시하였고, 창의성과 아버지양육태도와의 차이를 알아보기 위해 독립표본 t-검증을 하였으며, 유아의 창의성과 아버지양육태도와의 관계를 알아보기 위하여 Pearson의 상관관계분석을 적용하였다. 연구 결과 첫째, 창의적인 유아와 일반 유아간에 전반적 창의성점수에서 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 요인별로 분석시 유창성과 독창성, 개방성요인에서는 창의적인 유아가 일반 유아보다 유의하게 높았으며, 두 집단간 창의성에 있어서 성차는 없었다. 둘째, 창의적인 유아와 일반 유아의 아버지의 자녀창의성 인식에서는 전반적 독창성 점수에서도 유의한 차이가 있었으며 특히 유창성, 추상성, 정교성의 차원에서 인식의 차이를 보여 창의성수준을 부모들이 이해하고 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 창의적인 유아에 대한 아버지와 교사의 인식에서는 창의적인 유아의 아버지보다 현장에서 유아를 가르치는 교사가 인식하고 있는 유아의 창의성수준을 더 높게 평가하였다. 그러나 아버지와 교사간 평가의 상관은 유의하지 않았는데 이는 아버지의 평가수준이 매우 객관적인 것은 아님을 시사한다. 셋째, 창의적인 유아와 일반 유아 아버지 양육태도에서는 유의한 차이를 보였는데 특히 애정-적대요인과 자율-통제요인에서 창의적인 유아와 일반 유아간의 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 유아의 창의성과 아버지 양육태도간의 상관관계분석결과 애정적 양육태도와 유창성, 독창성간의 상관이 유의하였다. 집단별 분석시 창의적인 유아를 둔 아버지의 양육태도와 유아의 창의성간에는 상관이 없는 것으로 나타났고, 일반 유아의 아버지 양육태도와 유아의 창의성간의 상관에서는 아버지 양육태도의 성취-비성취 요인에서와 창의성제목의 추상성요인에서 상관이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 창의성이 높은 아동의 아버지의 양육태도는 일반 유아의 아버지와 보다 더 애정적이며 자율성이 높지만 창의성이 높은 아동의 집단내에서 창의성에 특별한 영향을 더 미치는 아버지의 양육방식은 발견되지 않았다. 반면 일반 유아의 경우 아버지의 성취지향성이 낮을 때 자녀의 창의성을 향상시킬 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이상에서 자녀의 창의성을 향상시키는 중요한 양육차원은 애정성이나 비성취지향성으로 나타나고 있어 정서적인 측면의 지원인 것으로 밝혀졌다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the importance of parental beliefs, parental attitudes and parental behaviors of parents with preschool children and the relationship of the variables in an attempt to help preschoolers to gain multiple-intelligence experiences in an integrated manner in consideration of their interests, needs, strengths and weaknesses. A survey was conducted on the selected parents who had preschool children, and a multiple regression analysis was carried out to look for connections among the variables. The findings of the study were as follows: First, the preschool girls were ahead of the preschool boys in linguistic intelligence, musical intelligence and spatial intelligence, and the latter surpassed the former in logical-mathematical intelligence. Second, whether there would be any differences among the preschoolers in multiple intelligences according to age was analyzed, and those who were at the Western age of five were ahead of the four-year-olds in logical-mathematical intelligence, bodily-kinesthetic intelligence and naturalist intelligence. Third, the parental attitude of the parents was identified as the most influential variable for the multiple intelligences of the preschoolers, followed by parental behavior. Parental beliefs just had a very small impact on their multiple intelligences. The findings of the study imply that parents should be helped to improve their parental attitude and parental behavior to boost the multiple intelligences of their preschool children.

This study examined the effects of infants' and toddlers' temperament and mothers' parenting self-efficacy on parenting behavior. Two hundred and thirty-two mothers with infants and toddlers completed the questionnaires regarding children's temperament, parenting self-efficacy and parenting behavior. The collected data were analysed by correlations and pathway analysis. The results were as follows: First, infants' and toddlers' temperament directly and indirectly through mothers' parenting self-efficacy affected affectionate and permissive-uninvolved parenting behavior. Second, mothers' parenting self-efficacy directly affected affectionate, authoritarian and permissive-uninvolved parenting behavior and mediated between children's temperament and mothers' parenting behavior. Additionally the most important variable predicting mothers' affectionate and permissive-uninvolved parenting behavior was infants' and toddlers' temperament, and the most important variable for authoritarian parenting behavior was mothers' parenting self-efficacy.

In this study, the relationships between father's maternal attitude and infant's self-efficacy and peer ability was verified, and in this process, the mediated effect of infant's self-efficacy was verified. The subjects of this study were 256 fathers of infants who were enrolled in a kindergarten located in Seoul, and the data was acquired by questionnaire survey. Verification of research questions was carried out through structural equation model analysis. As a result of the verification, the father's affectional attitude and autonomic attitude showed a significant positive effect on the infant's self-efficacy, and the affectional attitude showed a significant positive effect on the infant's peer competence. And it was shown that the infant's self-efficacy has a significant positive effect on their peer competence. On the other hand, the father's maternal was shown to have a positive effect on the infant's peer competence through the mediating of the infant's self-efficacy. The results of this study will be meaningful in that they have derived factors of the father's maternal attitude toward improving peer competence as well as the self-efficacy in terms of infant development.

The purpose of this study was to examine the moderating effects of mothers' beliefs about emotional guidance on the relations between children's emotionality and parenting stress. The participants were 213 mothers of 3~5 year old children from early childhood educational institutions located in Gyeonggi province and Daejeon, Korea. Mothers completed questionnaires regarding children's emotionality, beliefs about emotional guidance and parenting stress. The main results of this study are as follows. First, children's gender, age and mothers' age was related to parenting stress. And maternal parenting stress was positively related to children's negative emotionality and mothers' beliefs that children learn emotion by themselves and negatively related to beliefs that parent should coach children's emotion. Also, the relations between negative emotionality of children and parenting stress were significantly moderated by mothers' beliefs about emotional guidance. That is, higher levels of children's negative emotionality predicted higher parenting stress especially for mothers who believe that children learn emotion by themselves. The findings of this study suggested the importance of mothers' emotion related beliefs to reduce parenting stress.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the structural relationships between preschooler's temperament, externalizing behavior problems and mother's parenting competency. The 5th Panel Study of Korean Children by Korea Institute of Child Care and Education were analyzed in this study by using the structural model. The major findings are as follows, First, preschoolers' emotionality temperament were found to have a negative effect on mothers' parenting competency. Preschoolers' activity and sociability temperament had a positive influence on mothers' parenting competency. Second, preschoolers's emotionality temperament also had a direct impact on their externalizing problems behavior, otherwise preschoolers's activity and sociability temperament were unrelated to that. Third, mothers' parenting competency had a negative influence on preschoolers' externalizing problems behavior. Finally, mothers' parenting competency had mediating effects between preschoolers' temperament and their externalizing problems behavior. These findings suggest that parental education should be concerned about parenting competency based on the understanding of preschooler's temperament.
