Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate mothers' knowledge, attitudes, and practices of infection prevention for their children. Methods: In this descriptive study, data were collected using a questionnaire. A total 157 mothers of young children were surveyed regarding their knowledge, attitudes, and practices of infection prevention. Results: The mean score of knowledge, attitudes, and practices of infection prevention in mothers was found to be above average. There were significant differences in knowledge according to whether the mother was employed (t=2.82, p=.005) and in attitudes according to the mother's age (t=2.13, p=.035). In addition, a significant correlation was found between knowledge and attitudes (r=.16, p=.014), and between attitudes and practices (r=.50, p<.001). Conclusion: This research provides baseline information to understand mothers' approaches to infection prevention for their children, and it may serve as a basis for providing educational programs that help infection prevention.

Purpose: The purpose of this research was to examine the degree of care stress and the quality of life of grandmothers caring for their grandchildren while mother was employed. Method: A convenience sample of 107 grandmothers were measured for grandmother's care stress using a revised for of the PSI/SF and the quality of life tool by Andrew and Weinert. Descriptive statistics, t-test, and Pearson correlation coeffcients were used to analyze the data using SPSS/PC 10.0 Results: The results found that grandmothers' care stress was high according to their age and religion. Their quality of life was low according to their age, their present health status, income and sleep pattern. Their subjective care stress was a sense of social isolation, burden of caring for grandchildren, health problems, and conflict with adult children. Care stress and quality of life were found to be negatively correlated. This result was statistically significant. Conclusion: In conclusion, it was found that the care stress was high and affected quality of life. From this study it is proposed that there is a need to develop programs which consider grandmother' techniques in child care and health care to improve their quality of life. Ultimately, a good care environment for children will be good for the children's growth and development.

이 연구의 목적은 재가 양육미혼모와 시설 양육미혼모의 사회적 지지 중 정부지원의 차이를 조사하고 정책대안을 마련하고자 함에 있다. 최근에는 양육미혼모들이 증가하고 있으나 정부의 지원은 충분하지 못하며, 가장 기초적인 생계유지에도 도달하지 못하고 있다. 양육미혼모에 대한 정부지원의 차이를 조사한 결과재가 양육미혼모가 시설 양육미혼모보다 연령과 학력이 높았으며, 직업을 더 많이 가지고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 아동의 월령 또한 재가 양육미혼모의 아동이 더 높은 것으로 나타났다. 위기지원과 친자검사를 제외한 정부지원은 시설 양육미혼모가 더 높게 나타났으며, 재가 양육미혼모가 더 어려움을 겪고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 연구결과를 바탕으로 양육미혼모들의 안정된 정착을 위한 현실성 있는 정부정책을 제언하였다.

Also greater number (77.7%) started bladder training prior to that of bowel. 4. It is noticeable that in course of training a large number of mothers (48.3%) applied strict training method when the child proper talenting, and the more rigid and strict in tile training. the more malformation of personality of the infant and toddler were seen after the training period (P<0.01). 5. Over the half of the total cases denoted (bowel 54.3%, bladder 67.7%) starting period before one year and in most cases (bowel 79.3%, bladder 729)the training was accomplished within 12 month, and therefore it was noted that earlier start(before 1 year) shortened the training period (with 12 month) .

Many a number (bowel 50.3%, bladder 97.7%) employed the method of continuous talenting at regular interval in accordance with that of child′s habit formed before training. Equipment used were various kinds, however, pieces of paper for male (45.5%) and piss pot or bedpost (42.3%) for female were common, on the other hand, "Eung-ga" for defecation (52.3%) and "Shii" for the urination (95.3%) were most standard expression that used during the training period.

본 연구의 목적은 자녀의 초등학교 입학이 취업모의 근로조건을 어떻게 변화시키는지 살펴보는 것이었다. 분석을 위해 육아정책연구소에서 실시하는 한국아동패널 4-8차년도 자료를 활용하였다. 구체적으로 본 연구에서는 자녀의 초등학교 입학이 어머니의 임금, 근로시간, 상용직 취업확률에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고자 하였다. 분석 결과의 내생성(endogeneity)를 통제하기 위해 균형패널 데이터를 대상으로 회귀불연속설계를 사용하여 분석한 결과와 불균형패널 데이터를 대상으로 Heckman 선택모형을 사용하여 분석한 결과를 비교하여 제시하였다. 분석결과 자녀의 초등학교 입학은 어머니의 임금수준, 근로시간, 상용직 취업확률에 부정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 자녀의 초등학교 입학이 단순히 여성의 경력단절 문제뿐만 아니라 양질의 일자리에 진입하는 것을 어렵게 만들 수 있다는 것을 보여준다.

The purpose of this study was to compare working mothers' sftisfaction with child day care service between those using child care centers in their workplace and those using child care centers close to their houses. their demand for better child care service was also assessed. The study findings can be used as basic information for establishing alternative solutions and developing child day care programs able to meet the different needs of mothers with preschool children. The results from this study were as follows. Firstly, there was a significant difference in satisfaction levels associated with the quality of child day care centers (programs and safety) between the two groups. There were no significant differences in satisfaction levels associated with demographic factors. Secondly, while working mothers using child care centers in their workplace were most concerned with the quality of the center, the other group of working mothers was most concerned with the distance between their houses and the child care centers. Thirdly, both groups preferred the idea that the government make child care subsidies. Thus study results suggest the need for establishing systematic efforts to increase child care services in workplaces and communities and eventually support working mothers.

The purpose of this study is to compare the economic burden and cost of child rearing, mainly between families with job-holding mothers and job-exit mothers. The sample consisted of 665 mothers with at least one child aged one year or less from the 2009 Panel Study on Korean Children. We found social capital reduced the child rearing costs for both job-holding and job-exit mothers, while community resources significantly reduced the costs of child rearing only for job-holding mothers. Based on these results, implications for family policy for families with young children are suggested.

In this study, sixth grade school children in the Guri area were surveyed via questionnaire regarding their sociodemographic characteristics, snacking patterns, and intakes of different food groups and sugared snacks. Students with employed mothers had more frequent snacking events and were more dependent on store-purchased snacks compared to those having an unemployed mother. A high consumption of snack sugar was associated with a higher dietary diversity score. There was a positive relationship between snack sugar intake and the intakes of meat and dairy products and foods in the oil and nut group, respectively. A high snack sugar intake had a negative effect on fruit intake. Specific nutrient intake data will be required before conclusions can be made on whether nutrient imbalances are a concern in elementary school children having sweet snacks. Yet, the current data indicate that an increased snack sugar intake can decrease fruit intake, which could result in certain nutrient deficits. Specific dietary guidance may be necessary to address the snacking habits of elementary school children.
