This study examined the intergenerational transmission of family violence. The main focus of this study was on the effect of an experience of childhood violence and the witnessing of interparental violence on the future spouse and child violence. Two hundred and forty-two married couples and 50 married couples with indicted husbands and their wives were surveyed. The results showed that Husbands who had experienced childhood violence from their father and witnessed their father's violence towards their mother tended to inflict more physical violence on their wives than those who did not experience such events. Wives who witnessed violence between both parents' tended to receive more physical violence from their husbands than those who did not witness such events. In addition, wives who did not experience childhood violence but at the same time witnessed interparental violence tended to receive more physical violence from their husbands than those who did not witness such events. Husbands who experienced childhood violence from their mother and both parents and husbands who witnessed their father's violence toward their mother tended to be more violent towards their children than those who did not experience such events. Wives who experienced childhood violence from their mother and father and wives who witnessed violence between both parents tended to be more violent towards their children than those who did not experience such events. These results partially support that the transmission of family violence across generations and show the differential effects of gender and the violent parent's gender on family violence.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to examine the determinants of sterilization in South Korea. Methods : This study was based on the data from the Korea National Fertility Survey carried out in the year 2000 by the Korea Institute of Health and Social Affairs. The subjects of the analysis were 4,604 women and their husbands who were in their first marriage, in the age group of 15-49 years. The data were analyzed by multiple logistic regression analysis. Results : Consistent with the findings of previous studies, the woman#s age and the number of total children increased the likelihood of sterilization. In addition, the year of marriage had a strong positive association with sterilization. Interestingly, the number of surviving sons tended to increase the likelihood of sterilization, whereas the woman#s education level and age at the time of marriage showed a negative association with sterilization. Religion, place of residence, son preference, and the husband#s education level, age and type of occupation were not significant determinants of sterilization. Conclusions : The sex of previous children and lower level of education are distinct determinants of sterilization among women in South Korea. More studies are needed in order to determine the associations between sterilization rate and decreased fertility.

본 연구는 결혼과 출산 간의 인과적 구조에서 거주지 선택의 조절 효과를 검증하여 거주지 선택이 출산에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 확인하였다. 분석 결과, 초혼은 지방정부의 공공서비스를 위한 재정적 역량, 주거 안정성, 지역 규모, 지역의 경제 상황과의 상호작용 그리고 재혼 및 외국인과의 결혼은 지방정부의 공공서비스를 위한 재정적 역량, 주거 안정성, 지역 규모와의 상호작용이 출산에 조절 효과를 지니는 것으로 확인되었다. 이런 분석 결과는 결혼 부부가 거주지로 농어촌 지역보다는 중소도시 및 대도시로 선택할 경우가 출산 의사에 더 긍정적인 영향을 미칠 수 있음을 의미한다. 결혼과 출산 간의 관계에서 거주지 선택의 조절 효과를 근거로 광역화를 주장하는 것이 논리적으로 문제가 있다는 의견도 존재할 수 있지만, 본 연구의 분석 결과와 현재의 결혼 부부 농어촌 지역으로서의 거주 회피현상은 광역화의 필요성을 제기하는데 기여할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The purpose of this study was to examine whether the Marital Satisfaction Scale(M.S.S) is properly applicable to Korean couples and further to be devoted to the designed of a marital satisfaction scale for Korea. The scale employed in this study was a Korean adaptation of the M.S.S., which originally included 73 items but was reduced to 48 through a study of its validity by Bowden. This scale was administered to 420 couples. One kindergarten, two elementary schools, one middle school, and four high schools, all of them located in Seoul or its satellite cities were selected for the present study. The results of the study were as follows. 1) Through item analysis, 85.4% of the total items showed a high index of discrimination, i.e, of more than +.40, which all was significant discrimination (P<0.001) excluding two items. 2)Factor analysis, which was oriented toward combining factors proper to theory, showed that the M.S.S. consisted of 6 factors and its total variance was 50.18%. The 6 factors were marital satisfaction (factor 1), marital social psychological companionship (factor 2), obstacles to marriage (factor 3), dissatisfaction of marital relationship (factor 4), attitude of the reasonable marital relationship (factor 5), and cognition of married life (factor 6), 3) internal consistency reliability of the M.S.S. was 0.951 and the reliability of the total items after excluding two through item analysis 0.956 and 0.949 respectively, which showed a high internal consistency 4) The marital satisfaction examined by the M.S.S showed significant differences according to sex, education , income, the duration of marriage, the number of children but no significant differences according to age, and family type. From these results, it will be concluded that the M.S.S is a reliable and valid psychological scale for examining marital satisfaction of Korean couples. The limitations of this study were as follows. 1) It can not be generalized to all Korean couples because the subjects was sampled from Seoul or satellite cities. 2)The factor analysis in this study was oriented toward combining factors proper to theory. However, it was very difficult to find out the factors because the components of the M.S.S. was more or less abstract. Thus, from these results some suggestions follow for developing the marital satisfaction scale proper to Korean couples systematically and scientifically. 1) The subjects must be sampled form urban as well as rural areas 2)Factor analysis in this study is oriented toward finding out factors of the M.S.S. Thus, it is needed to analyze the factor validity or construct validity by multitrait - multimethod of the scale with more theoretical conceptualization. 3) It is necessary to examine whether marital satisfaction shows difference according to couples and psychological variables besides objective demographic variables. 4) More research is needed before the M.S.S. con be adapted into a turely useful marital satisfaction scale for Korea.

정서적 유대가 점차 중요시되는 부부관계에서 혼외관계는 부부간 정서적 유대와 신뢰를 흔드는 치명적인 이혼사유가 되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 다양한 혼외관계의 상황과 이로 인한 이혼의 현상을 드라마가 어떻게 담고 있는지 내용분석을 하였다. 최초로 이혼을 소재로 다룬 주간 드라마 <부부클리닉: 사랑과 전쟁> 30회분이 분석의 대상이 되었다. 분석결과, 드라마에 등장하는 부부는 혼외관계 자체뿐 아니라 부부관계의 질을 결정하는 정서 및 의사소통 문제가 내재되어 있는 경우가 많았다. 가부장적인 남편과 의존적인 아내라는 전통적인 부부관계의 설정이 가장 자주 등장하였다. 혼외관계의 대상은 결혼 전 애인이 가장 많았으며, 혼외관계유형으로는 남편에게는 '불만족한 결혼생활의 파기수단'이나 '만족한 결혼생활에서의 활력추구'가, 아내에게는 '불만족한 결혼생활에서의 일시도피나 유지수단'이 가장 많은 것으로 묘사되고 있었다. 이러한 혼외관계는 부부 모두에게서 '결혼유지기간 6-10년'인 때에 가장 높은 빈도로 나타났다. 이상의 연구결과를 통해 그 동안 사회복지 실천 대상에서 간과되었던 중산층 부부에 대한 사회복지적 재규정 및 새로운 가족개입모형 개발의 필요성을 확인하였다. 뿐만 아니라 가족의 일상성을 반영하고 있으며, '환경속 개인'이라는 사회복지의 핵심영역을 묘사하고 있는 '드라마'를 사회복지 연구에서의 대안적 영역이 될 수 있음을 확인하는 등 사회복지적 함의를 도출할 수 있었다.

본 연구의 목적은 노년기 부부관계 내에서 우울과 부부관계만족도 간 종단적 상호관계가 어떠한지 탐색하는 데 있다. 부부의 상호의존성을 반영하고 부부자료를 하나의 모형에서 분석하기 위해 행위자-상대방 상호의존모형(Actor-Partner Interdependence Model)과 공통운명모형(Common Fate Model)을 기반으로 연구모형을 설정하였으며, 변인 간 종단적 상호관계를 검증하기 위해 자기회귀교차지연 모형을 활용하였다. 한국복지패널조사의 10차 년도(2015년)부터 13차 년도(2018년)까지의 4개년도 자료로 부부자료(dyadic data)를 구성하였으며, 최종적으로 2015년 기준 60세 이상인 부부 1,383쌍(2,766명)에 대하여 구조방정식모형을 이용하여 분석하였다. 주요 분석결과는 첫째, 노년기 부부의 부부관계만족도는 남편 우울, 아내 우울에 종단적으로 부적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 부부관계만족도가 남편 우울에 미치는 영향보다 아내의 우울 수준에 미치는 영향이 유의하게 더 큰 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 남편 우울 수준과 아내 우울 수준은 부부 공통의 관계만족도에 종단적으로 부적 영향을 미쳤으나 영향력의 크기 차이는 유의하지 않았다. 본 연구의 결과는 우울과 부부관계만족도가 상호순환관계에 있음을 보여주며, 부부관계만족도의 저하와 우울의 증가라는 악순환 고리가 형성될 가능성을 제기한다. 이를 바탕으로 노년기 우울과 부부관계만족도의 개선을 위해서 부부 단위의 개입과 부부 각자에 대한 개별적 접근을 병행해야 함을 논의하였다.

Family life culture embodies the ways of thinking and behaving among family members in everyday lives. With a noticeable growth of multicultural families since 2000, there has been an inflow of other culture into the existing Korean family life culture. This new phenomenon signals a potential transformation of the family life culture in Korean society. To forecast such changes, we compared the family life culture of Korean-Vietnamese multicultural families (as reported by 104 Korean husbands and their Vietnamese wives) with that of mainstream Korean families (as reported by 108 Korean married men and 92 Korean married women) by comparing family ritual practices and family values. We also sought to identify whether two cultures in Korean-Vietnamese multicultural families harmoniously coexist or clash by examining differences within couples. Results showed that Korean married men and Korean husbands of Vietnamese women were very similar in terms of family ritual practices and family values. Differences emerged between Korean husbands and their Vietnamese wives. Specifically, Korean husbands endorsed more traditional gender role beliefs while their family values were less patriarchal compared to their wives. Results suggest that more flexible gender role beliefs reported by Vietnamese wives may be a source of conflict in Korean-Vietnamese multicultural families. At the same time, it may be a driving force of change in their existing family life culture. It will be worthwhile to pay attention in future research to whether and how patriarchal values and flexible gender role beliefs would continue to coexist or modify each other.

Family Life Education(FLE) is an educational specialty which was originated in reaction to changing social conditions, industrialization, and urbanization It deals with the perceived inadequacies of families to cope with these changes, thereby reducing social problems involved with and improving family life. With an assumption that the studies about FLE have not been so active in Korea, the present thesis examines the FLE in Korea; i.e. the definition, the objectives, the scope, the approximation of family life education, and the necessity of marital education in Korea based upon the published theories of FLE in th United Stated of America. Also it attempts to formulate a tentative plan for the promotion of a FLE program in Korea. The concept of FLE in Korea was manifested in the social educational law and life-span education, specified as the 4th among ten presidential regulations; and it has drawn an institutional, governmental attention It is defined as " the life-span developmental education to enhance the quality of human life, to solve family problem, to develop an individual's potentiality, and to strengthen the family correlations." of the FLE programs, the marital education is considered one of the crucial subjects because it is the core of the family life. With this premise, FLE tries to support the healthy marital relations, , subsequently helping to explore the family potentiality and to strengthen family ties, Considering the seemingly dual characteristics of the Korean family types, the contents of marital education program should be consisted of the following; marital communication, role cooperation, and effective expressions of mutual affection, In addition, reciprocal understanding and cooperation of the married couples to overcome the differences of value, personality, hobby, and religion, the educational methods in raising kids, and the effective management of home economics should be included. The objects of the FLE program are unmarried, pre-married, and married persons. Fro the married persons, the FLE program should be arranged in accordance with their marital status divided by the family life cycle so that they may prevent possible family problems at each stage of the family life. Also, to prevent the problems incurred in the curse of carrying out family functions, the FLE program should be provided with on the basis of a family unit, thereby improving the quality of the family functions.

The purpose of this study was to examine the change of couple relationship factors predicting marital satisfaction and divorce intention over time tv comparing the couples' first year with their present year of marriage. The couple relationship factors consisted of affection, ambivalence, affectional expression, the expression of negativity. The study subjects 355 married women having preschool children aged 7 years old and elementary school students in the 6th grade. Data were analyzed by SPSSWIN with the method of MANOVA. The results of this study showed that couples in happy groups without divorce intention became less affectionate and demonstrated less affectional expression, and more ambivalence and expression of negativity over time. However, the amount of change was not as large as that of the unhappy groups. The findings of this research indicated that the decline of affection and affectional expression and the increase of ambivalence and expression of negativity were probably, as normative, a natural consequence of the transition from the first year of marriage to a more mature relationship. Therefore, the change over time was not important. However, the amount and aspects of change were the main points which researchers and practitioners should pal attention to in the future.
