The purpose of this study was to shed light on a role of hope in understanding the relationship between the search for meaning in life and academic satisfaction and to suggest ways to increase hope among Korean students. We hypothesized that the relationship between search for meaning in life and academic satisfaction would be mediated by hope and the positive relationship between search for meaning and hope would be strengthened by family support and friend support. We conducted two surveys to examine the hypotheses. Based on Study 1 using a sample of 190 undergraduate students, we found that the relationship between search for meaning in life and academic satisfaction was fully mediated by hope. In Study 2, we examined the four types of hope that include internal hope and three types of external hope (i.e., family, friends, and supernatural being) to extend knowledge on what features of hope mediate the relationships between search for meaning and academic satisfaction. Study 2 based on a sample of 313 high school students showed that the link from the search for meaning in life and academic satisfaction was fully mediated by internal hope and external-peers hope. The mediating effects of external-family hope and external-spiritual hope were not significant in Study 2. Also, we found that family support strengthened the positive links from the search for meaning in life to hope (Study 1) and to internal hope (Study 2) while the interactive effects of friend support and the search for meaning on hope were not significant in both studies. Based on the results, we discussed several implications, limitations, and recommendations for future research.

The multicultural family support project provides support services to female marriage immigrants to promote their settlement in Korea and their adaptation to marital life. This study thus investigated whether utilization of such support services is indeed related to positive changes perceived among these female marriage immigrants, and these changes, in turn, contribute to less marital conflict, marital well-being, and hope. Data were drawn from a self-administered questionnaire study in which 558 female marriage immigrants participated through the 36 centers across the nation that provided multicultural family support services based on cultural relativism and a strengths perspective. Results of structural equation modeling analyses revealed that utilization of support services, as predicted, contributed to positive changes, and such changes, in turn, were directly related to less marital conflict, higher marital well-being, and hope. As expected, marital conflict was negatively associated with marital well-being, which, in turn, promoted hope. Thus, through these paths positive changes also contributed positively to both marital well-being and hope. However, when the effects of length of residence in Korea and an ability to command Korean language were controlled for, a positive significant relationship between service utilization and marital conflict was revealed. Therefore this paper discussed the ways in which positive functions of such service utilization can be strengthened while at the same time actively addressing the dysfunctional components of such support services.

This study examined the relationship among temperament, social support and hope of institutionalized children. A total of 198 children, aged 10 to 13, recruited from 20 institutions in Seoul participated. Demographics, temperament, social support from friends, institution-family and school teacher, and hope were assessed by self-report. Results showed that in bivariate level, temperament and social support were significantly associated with level of hope. However, hierarchical multiple regressions indicated that children's hope was predicted only by age and social support from friends, institution-family and school teacher. That is, temperament was not contributed to predict hope, whilst social support contributed unique variance to the prediction of hope, controlling for age. The more social support the children felt they had, the higher levels of hope they reported. Further analyses revealed that support from friends, institution-family and school teacher were influential factors in explaining hope agency, while support from institution-family and school teacher were influential factors in explaining hope pathway of institutionalized children, controlling for age.

21세기 국내 기업의 해외 투자 진출을 활성화하고 중소기업의 자발적 참여를 고취하기 위해 중소기업 베트남 진출에 관한 조사연구를 수행하였다. 국내의 베트남 진출희망 중소기업 100개 업체를 대상으로 베트남진출에 관한 준비사항과 진행사항을 중심으로 설문조사를 실시하여 28개 업체의 응답내용을 분석하였다. 베트남 진출 희망 중소기업 가운데 국내 또는 현지 자료수집 작업에도 불구하고 약70% 이상은 베트남 진출을 위한 사전조사 작업이 불충분하다고 응답했는데 그 주요 이유로는 수집된 자료 내용의 빈곤(66%), 해당 자료 수집의 불편성(29%) 등을 들었다. 베트남 진출을 준비중인 중소기업이 갖는 애로 사항으로는 베트남어 및 영어의 언어장애와 현지인의 문화관습 등에 이해부족, 사회주의 체제의 외국인 투자법규 및 각종 제도에 대한 이해부족 등이었다. 성공적인 중소기업의 베트남 진출을 위해 장기적, 안정적으로 지원할 우리 정부 내 전담 지원기구와 보다 접근이 용이하고 유용한 지원정보를 계속적으로 제공할 필요성이 있다.

지난해 9월 정부에서는 진료비 지원대상에 포함되는 희귀난치성질환에 페브리병 등 3개 질환을 추가해 모두 11개 질환으로 늘리기로 했다고 발표했다. 그러나 100여 종이 넘는 희귀난치성질환을 앓고 있는 환자와 가족에게 희망을 주기에는 아직 역부족이 아닐까.
