This study aimed to empirically verify the relationship between the parenting attitudes of parents of immigrant children and adolescents and their Korean culture Acceptance Attitude(KCAA) for living in Korean society. Additionally, the study sought to demonstrate the mediating effect of self-esteem on this relationship. A survey was conducted with 126 immigrant children and adolescents from 16 districts in Busan Metropolitan City. The survey was conducted online using Google Forms. Due to the difficulty in securing respondents among immigrant children and adolescents, a combination of snowball and random sampling methods was used. The main findings of this study are as follows. First, parenting attitudes had a positive impact on the self-esteem of immigrant children and adolescents. This suggests that when parents exhibit an authoritative style with high demands and responsiveness, children and adolescents are more likely to have higher self-esteem. Second, self-esteem had a positive impact on the KCAA. This finding confirms that self-esteem, which is the emotional feeling of how valuable one is, is crucial for the KCAA, which is necessary for adapting to Korean society. Third, self-esteem had a complete mediating effect on the relationship between parenting attitudes and the acceptance of Korean culture. This result demonstrates that without self-esteem, this model cannot be established in the relationship between parenting attitudes and the acceptance of Korean culture. Based on these findings, this study suggests the activation of various parenting support programs and the integrated implementation of diverse interventions necessary for the growth process of children and adolescents.

The purpose of this study examines to what extent the multicultural youth's dual culture acceptance attitude is significantly affected by cultural adaptation stress and national identity using the data of the MAPS(Multicultural Adolescents Panel Study) conducted by the National Youth Policy Institute. The subject of the study was the first data of the second period of the MAPS, and 2,246 multicultural youth who were enrolled in the fourth grade of elementary school as of 2019 were used as analysis data. As a result of the study, it was found that the attitude to accept dual culture was significantly affected in the order of national identity and cultural adaptation stress. This means that the higher the national identity and the lower the cultural adaptation stress, the higher the attitude toward dual culture. On the other hand, as for the type of multicultural youth, it was found that international marriage families had the lowest attitude toward accepting dual culture. In terms of the size of the area where students live, large cities have the lowest dual cultural acceptance attitude. These results suggest that cultural adaptation stress, national identity, type of multicultural family, and area of residence act as major variables in multicultural youth's dual culture acceptance attitude.

This research aimed to investigate the relations of perfectionism and multicultural attitude upon a premise that sub-factors of the perfectionism : self-oriented perfectionism, other-oriented perfectionism and socially-prescribed perfectionism are related to multicultural attitude and to examine the moderation effect of self-acceptance on the relation between perfectionism and multicultural attitude. The questionnaires designed to measure multidimensional perfectionism, unconditional self-acceptance and multicultural attitude were administered to 258 office workers in Seoul and Gyeoggi-Do. The results from correlation analysis and regression analysis were as followed. First, sub-factors of the perfectionism was partially associated with sub-factors of multicultural attitude. In particular two sub-factors of the perfectionism : 'self-oriented perfectionism', 'other-oriented perfectionism' yielded effect on multicultural attitude, controlling the effects of other subscales. Second, unconditional self-acceptance moderated the relation between 'self oriented perfectionism' and sub-factor of the multicultural attitude : 'recognizing difference'. And unconditional self-acceptance moderated the relation between 'socially prescribed perfectionism' and sub-factors of the multicultural attitude : 'recognizing difference', 'openness and acceptance'. This present findings not only extend understandings about relationship between perfectionism and multicultural attitude by examining self-concept : unconditional self-acceptance but also provide that it isn't helpful that further support and rationale for unconditional self-acceptance as intervention for targets to focus in counseling process for those who suffer from perfectionism.
