The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of sex education on knowledge and attitude related to sex. The subjects were taken from by 199 students in 3 classes from 1st grade in H girl's junior high school as the study group, and 2 classes from 1st grade in S girl's junior high school as control group. During the survey period(September 21, 1998 to September 30, 1998), 6 times in terms of one-hour class for sex education were taught to the study group. A pre-test was executed on September 19, 1998 and the post-test on September 30. The findings were as follows. 1. According to the research, 20.1％ of the subjects have experienced sex education from parents and 89.9％ from teacher. They have mostly obtained the sex-related information from teachers(59.8％), following movie, radio, TV, or video tape(40.7％), friends(35.2％), reading materials such as books, cartoons, news papers and magazines(31.7％), parents(15.6％), siblings(7.0％), PC(1.5％) and telephone service(1.5％). 2. 27.1％ of the subjects reported that they had sex-related worry concerning from friendship with the opposite sex, following physiological phenomenon(31.5％), sex violence(11.1％), physical characteristics(7.4％), VD and contraception(5.6％), sexual impulse(5.6％), pregnancy and delivery(5.5％), and sexual behaviour(3.7％). The research showed that the adolescents usually solved their problems through the consultation with theifriends(44.4％). However, 16.7％ of the subjects were turned out not to request any solution. The other minor routes to settle their problems were written materials such as books, magazines(13.0％), parents(13.0％), movie, radio, TV, or video tape(5.5％), acquainted female elders(3.7％) and teachers(3.7％). 3. The most interesting part regarding sex was the friendship with the opposite sex(61.8％), following adolescent's emotion(55.8％), physiological differences between two genders(52.8％), AIDS(48.7％), VD(46.7％), pregnancy(45.2％), contraception(45.2％), abortion(41.7％), intercourse(41.7％), masturbation(41.2％), sex violence(41.2％) and genital structure and secondary sexual characteristics(28.6％). 4. In regard to characteristics of the subjects influencing sex-related knowledge, the higher educational career of mother, living with at least either parent and the experience of sex education by teachers were statistically significant factors(p〈0.05). 5. In regard to characteristics of the subjects influencing attitudes toward sex, the experience of sex education by parents or teachers was a statistically significant factor(p〈0.05). 6. The analysis of knowledge score comparing results before and after sex education showed that control group's score decreased from 12.5 to 12.44 while the study group's score increased from 12.33 to 21.31, which was statistically significant(p〈0.001). 7. The analysis of the attitude scores before and after sex education showed that the control group's score slightly increased from 55.57 to 56.36, while the study group's score increased from 54.79 to 61.95, which was statistically significant(p〈0.001). 8. The level of sex-related concerns of the study group after sex education marked both the increase in some items and the decrease in others. 9. Most instructive session among the sex education was the third “to be a good friend to the opposite sex”(27.0％).

본 연구는 국외입양인들의 뿌리찾기에 영향을 미치는 요인을 밝히기 위한 연구이다. 현대적인 의미에서의 입양이 시작된 6·25 전쟁 이후 지난해까지 국외로 입양된 아동은 16만명 이상으로, 같은 기간 국내에서 입양된 아동에 비해 2배 이상 많다. 1980년대 초부터 많은 국외입양인들이 뿌리찾기를 위해 모국을 찾고 있으나, 이들 국외입양인에 대한 우리의 관심과 지원은 매우 낮은 수준이다. 그러나 뿌리찾기가 입양인들이 갖고 있는 보편적 욕구라는 점을 감안할 때, 이들의 뿌리찾기 활동을 지원할 필요가 있으며 그러기 위해서는 우선적으로 뿌리찾기에 참여하는 입양인들의 특성을 파악하는 작업이 이루어져야 할 것이다. 본 연구에서는 국내외 선행연구를 토대로 국외입양인들의 뿌리찾기에 영향을 미치는 요인을 밝히기 위한 연구모형을 구성하고, 이들 영향요인을 실증적으로 규명하고자 시도하였다. 자료는 보건복지가족부에서 2008년에 실시한 <국외입양인 실태조사 및 효율적 입양사후서비스 제공방안> 연구에서 수집한 자료를 이용하여 분석하였으며, 조사대상은 한국에서 출생하여 미국, 유럽, 호주 등의 국가로 입양된 16세 이상 국외입양인들로, 설문지는 영어와 프랑스어로 제작되어 온라인 설문조사 형태로 진행되었다. 총 290사례가 분석에 포함되었으며, 온라인 설문조사의 특성상 응답별 결측치가 다소 높게 나타나 다중삽입한 5개 자료를 이용하여 분석을 진행하였다. 선행연구를 토대로 입양인의 인구학적 특성(성별과 연령집단), 심리적 특성(정체성 위기 경험), 입양 및 입양부모 관련 특성(뿌리찾기 관심 시기, 입양 시 연령, 입양부모의 이혼여부, 뿌리찾기에 대한 입양부모의 태도) 등의 변수가 연구모형에 포함되었으며, 이 중 입양인의 연령, 정체성 위기경험, 뿌리찾기에 처음 관심을 갖기 시작한 시기, 입양 시 연령, 뿌리찾기에 대한 입양부모의 태도가 입양인의 뿌리찾기에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 입양인의 연령이 30~34세인 경우, 35세 이상인 경우보다 뿌리찾기를 시도할 확률이 높았으며, 살아오면서 정체성 위기를 여러 차례 경험한 입양인일수록, 입양 시 만 나이가 많을수록, 뿌리찾기에 관심을 갖기 시작한 연령이 어릴수록 뿌리찾기를 시도할 가능성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 뿌리찾기에 대한 입양부모의 태도가 지지적인 경우보다 입양부모의 태도를 모르는 경우 뿌리찾기를 시도할 확률이 높았다. 마지막으로 본 연구결과에 근거한 국외입양인 지원정책 및 입양실천에서의 실천적 함의가 논의되었다.

본 연구의 주된 목적은 한국인의 가족관련 가치의식을 탐색하는데 있다. 이를 위해, 세대별 어머니 집단의 자녀가치와 양육태도 및 부모부양을 중심으로 분석하였다. 최종 분석대상은 유아 어머니 집단 314명과 청소년 어머니 집단 395명이었으며, 평균 연령은 각각 31세, 41세였다. 측정도구는 본 연구자들과 함께 독일의 Bad Homburg 워크샾에 참여한 여러 국가의 연구자들이, Schwarz, Chakkarath, Trommsdorff, Schwenk와 Nauck(2001)이 제작한 질문지를 참고로 하여, 공동으로 토론하여 제작하였다. 질문지는 자녀가내, 가치관, 자녀 양육태도, 인간관계, 사회적 지원, 스트레스와 생활만족도를 측정하는 내용으로 구성되었다. 첫째, 자녀가치와 관련된 분석 결과, 세대별로 의미있는 차이가 있었다. 자녀를 원하는 이유로서, 청소년 어머니 집단은 가문을 이어가기 위해서와 같은 사회적 가치와, 부모가 되어야 집안에서 위치가 분명해지고 인정 받는다와 같은 관계적 가치를 더욱 중요하게 인식하였다. 반면에 유아 어머니 집단은 아이가 자라는 것을 보면 즐겁다와 같은 심리적 가치를 더욱 중요하게 생각하였다. 자녀를 원하지 않는 이유로서, 유아 어머니 집단은 자유롭지 못하다와 같은 개인적 제약을 훨씬 강하게 지각하였다. 둘째, 자녀 양육태도와 관련된 결과도 세대별로 의미있는 차이가 있었다. 청소년 어머니 집단이 유아 어머니집단보다, 부모로서 자녀에 대한 책임을 더 강하게 인식하였으며, 현재의 자녀뿐만 아니라 자녀가 성인이 되었을 때까지도 자녀를 사회적으로 지원해 주고자 하는 각오가 훨씬 강하였다. 또한 청소년 어머니 집단이 자녀의 연령별 발달에 대한 기대와 관련하여 자녀에게 훨씬 관대하였다. 청소년 어머니 집단은 아들이나 딸로부터 도움받기를 기대하는 정도도 훨씬 높았다. 유아 어머니 집단은 청소년 어머니 집단보다 애정적 양육태도를 나타내었으나, 자녀양육 스트레스가 더 높았다. 셋째, 부모 부양과 관련된 결과에서도, 세대별 차이가 확인되었다. 즉 유아 어머니 집단이 부모로부터 실제적이고 정서적인 지원은 더 많이 받고 있으면서도, 부모에 대한 실제적인 지원은 청소년 어머니 집단이 더 많이 하였다. 종합적으로 볼 때, 나이 든 어머니들일수록 보다 전통적이고 보수적인 자녀가치와 양육태도 및 부모부양 태도를 지니고 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 이러한 결과는 한국의 세대별 어머니 집단간 가족관련 가치의식에 차이가 있음을 시사한다.

Objectives: This study examines the situation regarding smoking among high school students in Seoul Province and identifies smoking-related factors. Methods: The study sample consisted of 1,000 high school second-grade students from 6 high schools in Seoul. The PRECEDE model was used to assess the students' needs. We carried out an educational diagnosis on attitudes, outcome expectations and social norms. Date were collected from June. 7 to 21, 2011, and were analyzed using SPSS-15.0 according to the study objectives. Results: Of 906 respondents, 9.4% had experiences to smoking: 12.7% were male and 5.7% were female. Smoking-related factors from among general characteristics were statistically significant depending on the degree of gender($x^2$=14.515, p=.001), school performance($x^2$=40.289, p=.001) and friends 'smoking status($x^2$=88.615, p=.001). Factors concerning attitudes toward smoking were statistically significant depending on the students' perceptions as follows: 'Smoking is fun(t=-14.801, p=.000)', 'Smoking looks cool(t=-10.349, p=.000)', 'People who smoke have more friends(t=-11.295, p=.000)', 'Smoking helps me manage stress(t=-15.059, p=.000)' and 'Smoking is not harmful to the body if you exercise(t=-6.388, p=.000)'. Factors concerning outcome expectations were statistically significant depending on their perceptions as follows: 'Tobacco smells good(t=-8.939, p=.000)' and 'Smoking helps in weight management (t=-7.304, p=.000)'. Factors concerning social norms were statistically significant depending on the following perception: 'My friends will not like it if I smoke(t=4.605, p=.000)'. The following influence high school students attitudes toward smoking: School performance (OR=11.66, 95%CI=1.67~81.37; OR=18.27, 95%CI=2.58~129.24; OR=26.74, 95%CI=3.06~233.79), Friends smoking status(OR=80.05, 95%CI=6.94~922.77), 'Smoking is fun(OR=12.90, 95%CI=3.87~43.04; OR=63.41, 95%CI=10.66~377.09)', 'Smoking looks cool(OR=0.15, 95%CI=0.03~0.64)', 'Smoking is not harmful to the body if you exercise(OR=1.44, 95%CI=0.03~0.62)', 'When there is no work to do, smoking is a good way to pass the time(OR=21.68, 95%CI=4.27~109.90)', 'When you are angry, smoking calms you down.(OR=13.39, 95%CI=3.92~45.65; OR=8.69, 95%CI=1.67~45.13)' and 'My parents consider it important that I do not smoke(OR=10.05, 95%CI=1.00~100.43)'. Conclusions: The study suggests that effective ways to discourage of high school students from smoking are changing their attitudes toward smoking, reducing the motivation to smoke, and controlling the number of cigarettes. Therefore, aiming at preventive education. Schools must provide accurate information about the effects of smoking. Thus, health education should actively involve preventive education not only in schools but also at home, the societal and national levels. Cooperation between various sectors of society is required for this.

As the immigrant population is rapidly growing in South Korea, it is important for the next generation of Korean adolescents to foster unprejudiced attitudes towards immigrants. This paper thus seeks to shed light on adolescent prejudice towards immigrants, by addressing the following three questions: (1) Does a mother's prejudice towards immigrants and parenting style influence their adolescent children's prejudice towards immigrants? (2) Does an adolescent's prejudice towards immigrants influence his/her self-identity? (3) Does an adolescent's prejudice towards immigrants influence his/her coping styles? The sample consisted of 288 pairs of Korean adolescents and their mothers. According to hierarchical regression analyses, a mother's prejudice towards immigrants significantly predicted her adolescent's prejudice towards immigrants, after taking sociodemographic variables into account, whereas her parenting style did not. In addition, having a low level of prejudice towards immigrants among adolescents predicted high levels of self-identity (e.g. independence, proprioceptive, and mission orientation), and a greater use of positive coping skills (e.g. support-seeking and problem-solving). Overall, results showed that mothers played a significant role in shaping their adolescent's prejudice towards immigrants. Results also provided evidence that prejudice towards immigrants may interfere with the healthy development of self-identity and coping style during adolescence. In conclusion, this study suggests that multicultural education for adolescents can be more effective, when it is provided in partnership with a parent education program that is designed to raise parental multicultural awareness.

The purpose of this study was to describe the relationship between family stress and adaptation in families with a disabled child through literature review using McCubbin's Double ABCX family crisis framework. The literature review focused on (1) family stress and factors affecting family stress, (2) the critical individual, familial and social resources which families acquire and employ over time in managing crisis situation. (3) the changes in definition and meaning families develop in an effort to make sense out of their predicament. (4) the coping strategies families employ. and (5) the range of outcomes of these family efforts The results showed that families reported financial difficulties and the burden of care-giving demands as major family stressors. Siblings of disabled children manifested depressive symptoms and social isolation. but was not consistent study results. The parents' views of the cause of the disabling condition fundamentally affected their behavior toward their disabled child. Especially. the fathers' views of the child's characteristics made the greatest contribution to positive changes in the mothers' perceptions. The term perceived social support refers to the cognitive appraisal by individuals that they are cared for and valued, that significant others are available to them if needed, and that they are satisfied with their interpersonal relationships. The perceived social support was more protective than social support source. network size and network density. Parental adaptation was found to be related to the child's communication competence rather than family coping strategies proposed by Lazarus and Folkman. One study results showed that there was no difference in depressive symptoms and physical health between mothers with a disabled child and those without all though mothers with a disabled child had negative attitudes and perceived themselves as having significantly less social support and lower family functioning. But a longitudinal study revealed decreases in the negative impact of the child and increases in sibling and overall family adaptation.

This study was performed to compare the anthropometric and the food and nutrient intake of the adolescents between urban areas and islands in south Kyungnam and to identify their nutritional problems. A questionnaire survey was distributed among 383 middle school students for the food and nutrient consumption and other nutritional attitudes including socioecomonic status. The height and weight of the students were measured as well. Socioeconomic status, such as income, educational level, and jobs of the urban students parents was better than that of the island students. There was no significant difference in height between the students of both areas, but the body weight of the urban male students was far heavier than that of the other group. It is very interesting to note that the energy intake of the urban male students was much lower than that of the island male students. The students of the two areas consumed more protein, Vit B$_1$, Vit B$_2$, niacin and Vit C than the recommended daily allowances(RDA) but the intake of Ca, Fe, Vit A was less. As to the sources of animal fat, the urban males consumed much more. Regarding the taste preference, the study shows that urban male students are more likely to choose sweet, salty and soft tastes than island male students. In the case of female students, although island students prefer a rather hot taste, urban students are more likely to prefer sweet and soft tastes. The favorite foods of urban students are meat products, fastfoods, chocolate, cheese and milkshakes, while foods like cooked rice with assorted vegetable are the favorite of the island students. In general, the preference degree for meat products and fruits rates higher than for vegetables. Conclusively the urban students had a tendency of being obese and the intake of all nutrients by the urban adolescents was much lower than that of the islanders. In this study, the cause can be found in significant differences in consuming animal fat, of taste preference and of choosing favorite food. Accordingly a nutritional intervention or educational program is required to adjust the imbalanced intake of some nutrients for the adolescents in this province.

The purpose of this study was to examine the dynamics of psychological and sexual violence in dating among high school students. Subjects consisted of 1,205 male and female adolescents from all parts of the country. 1,092 respondents were included in the final analysis(90.6%). For psychological violence, 13.3%(n=145) reported to have such experiences with a dating partner at least once or more. The most frequently used forms of violence were shouting, insulting language and behaviors, and blaming for a physical appearance. There were no sex differences in frequency of psychological violence between males and females, as an aggressor or a victim. Responses of victims were mostly negotiation and communication, and trying to forget it. For sexual violence, 27.8%(n=303) was found to have such experiences in a dating scence at least once or more. Hugging and kissing, close contact of parts of body, and gazing at parts of body were most frequently used forms. Responses of victims were pretending not to notice it and responding in the same way. There were significantly more male aggressors of sexual violence than females, but no sex difference in the number of victims. Those who reported to have experiences of violence were compared to the counterparts who had no experience in attitudes toward violence between dating partners and married couples, experiences of violence in childhood, school violence, and observations of violence between parents. Those with experience of dating violence reported to have significantly more experiences of violence in childhood and school, and parental violence. Based on the findings of this study, suggestion were made in regard to the need for development of dating violence prevention program for adolescents, and for welfare programs for adolescents in community.

Purpose: This study is to analyze influencing factors of smoking intention among nonsmoking middle school students with regard to smoking attitude, knowledge and social influence. Methods: Data were collected from non smoking students of 5 middle schools in D metropolitan city. The 1,892 enrolled subjects provided informed voluntary consent prior to completing a structural questionnaire covering smoking attitudes, knowledge, social influences and general characteristics. The data were analysed using SPSS/Win 21.0 program by -test and logistic regression analysis. Results: Among the nonsmoking students, 85.5% never had an intention to smoke. In relation to general characteristics, smoking intention was significantly associated with sex, school records, socioeconomic status, relationship with parents, smoking experience, and smokers around them. In relation to attitude, knowledge, and social influence, smoking intention was significantly associated with a lower attitude score, a lower knowledge score, and a lower social norm. In the logistic regression analysis, smoking intention was associated with a lower attitude score (2.99 times), a lower social norm (2.65 times), being male (2.35 times), low socioeconomic status (2.22 times). and having smoking experience (2.70 times). Conclusion: It is needed to develop promotional strategies that could provide adjusted systematic smoking prevention education for the preferred smoking group and afford smoking prevention programs considering subject characteristics to help young adolescents avoid access to smoking in their early age.
