이글은 결혼이주여성들의 국내 적응을 위한 교육용 코스웨어 개발과 이의 구현을 위한 'e-사회문화지도(e-ASC)' 설계에 초점을 두고 있다. 여기에는 결혼이주여성들의 문화적응, 사회 구성원으로서 가치관과 태도의 수용 및 사회적 기여 기회의 제공 등과 같은 교육 요소들이 고려되고 있다. 전자문화지도는 3차원의 공간을 통해 이주민과 내국인 모두에게 의미 있는 학습 경험을 제공할 뿐만 아니라 문화적 동질성을 공유할 수 있는 수단으로 유용하다. 전자문화지도를 활용하여 이 글에서 제안하고 있는 'e-사회문화지도'는 다문화인구의 맥락적 경험에 근거한 특정 사건을 중심으로 모국에서 경험한 맥락적 한계를 극복하고 비교문화적 접근을 통해 이주사회에 적응을 위한 능동적인 학습기회를 제공할 수 있다는 점에서 장점이 있다. 'e-사회문화지도'는 이주민들에게 효과적인 교육용 툴로 활용될 것은 물론, 결혼이주여성들이 모국에서 맥락적으로 습득한 한국 사회의 사회 문화현상에 대한 이해를 바르게 전달하고 그들의 사회적응을 돕는 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

This study was conducted to develop a nutritional education program based on the health belief model to improve nutritional status among Vietnamese female marriage immigrants in Korea. The education program was developed through literature review, focus group interviews, expert consultation, and pilot tests. Based on theoretical requirements and needs of beneficiaries, the education program was consisted of 16 sessions with nine topics: 'how to evaluate own dietary habits and nutritional status', 'health problems according to dietary habits and nutritional status', 'understanding six food groups', 'healthy eating plan', 'understanding food cultures of Korea and Vietnam', 'traditional and seasonal Korean foods', 'how to cook Korean food', 'nutrition management of family members', and 'practicing of healthy dietary life'. Program contents in each session consisted of activities that could induce outcome and value expectations, self-efficacy, perceived benefits, and barriers and cues to actions regarding dietary behavior. This nutritional education program based on the health belief model would be helpful to implement healthy diet behaviors in Vietnamese marriage immigrants and their families. Extension of these nutritional education programs to health centers and multicultural family support centers would improve the current poor nutrition status of Vietnamese marriage immigrant women. Further studies are needed to validate our program.

본 연구는 결혼이주여성을 중심으로 한국사회 문화적응 스트레스 발생요인에 대해 분석한 것으로 저출산 고령화현상으로 인한 한국의 다문화사회에 이들의 적응상의 문제는 중요한 사회적 문제될 수가 있다. 본 연구에서는 결혼이주여성을 중심으로 가족과 지역사회를 중심으로 문화적응상의 요인을 찾고자 시도한 연구이다. 연구 결과 첫째, 결혼이주여성의 취업 기회 확대를 위한 제도적 개선이 시급하고 결혼이주여성의 가구소득수준과 취업여부에 따라 문화적응 스트레스가 차이가 있는 것으로 나타나 이는 가구소득수준과 취업이 문화적응 스트레스에 중요한 요소임을 알 수 있었다. 둘째, 결혼이주여성 가족지원 서비스 프로그램을 마련해줌으로써 남편과의 의사소통과 가족의 자국문화 이해 및 수용정도가 문화적응 스트레스에 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 체계적인 사회복지 서비스 전달을 통한 정착 지원이 필요하며 또한 실질적인 서비스 내용의 질적 수준 향상, 접근성 강화 및 매스미디어 활용, 전담인력 확충, 사후관리 등의 지원이 선행되어야 한다. 넷째, 문화적 차이 극복을 위한 의식전환 기회 제공으로 다문화인에 대한 일반인의 인식개선이 시급하다. 따라서 결혼이주여성이 자국문화와 한국문화 사이에서 문화적으로 배려 받을 수 있으면서, 사회적 관계를 유지해 갈 수 있도록 하는 지원방안이 절실히 필요하다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate dietary behaviors and nutritional knowledge among immigrant women in multicultural families. In addition, this study reveals a necessity for nutrition education, which is apparent to both immigrant women living in multicultural families as well as nutrition education experts. The survey was conducted with 30 immigrant women within multicultural families in Seoul. The dietary behaviors of the women were significantly different by their period of residence. The longer they had resided in Korea, the higher their dietary behavior score. However, there was no significant difference in nutrition knowledge by their period of residence. This study also conducted in-depth personal interviews with 8 immigrant women who lived in Seoul, and with 4 nutrition education experts. These interviews were performed to provide profound insights regarding the content and means of nutrition education for immigrant women. Nutrition education for immigrant women living in multicultural families should proceed at a basic level in terms of language and content, using bilingual (Korean and their native language) education materials. Education topics and content need to be developed differently according to the level of Korean comprehension and period of residence in Korea. Also, this multicultural approach should be adapted when planning nutrition education since immigrant women have various acculturation levels, and the content and means of education should be adjusted to these acculturation levels. Management after nutrition education is necessary for immigrant women who do not have sufficient understanding of the Korean language. Practical educational methods such as real cooking practices and food purchasing simulations must be developed. Finally, the results suggest that the government needs to establish a systematic plan for nutrition education among immigrant women living in multicultural families. Policy support such as training nutrition educators on multicultural individuals residing in Korea is necessary for active and effective nutritional education.

''The King's Daughters' is referring to the approximately 900 young French women who immigrated to New France between 1663 and 1673. This program was sponsored by Louis XIV. The program was planned to increase New France's population both by encouraging the female immigrants to settle there and by promoting marriages, family formations and the births of children. Marguerite Bourgeoys was the first person to use the expression called as 'filles du roi' in her writings. She was the French foundress of the Congregation of Notre Dame of Montreal in the colony of New France which is now part of Quebec. After agreeing to marry, the couple took a marriage contract directly in front of a notary and the wedding ceremony had generally been held within possible rapid time. The processes of the choice of husband and the marriage would officially be held in the church. By the year 1672, the population of New France had risen to 6,700 from 3,200 in 1663. Although the Filles du Roi represent only 8% of the total immigrants to Canada under the French regime, they account for nearly half of the women who immigrated to Canada in the colony's 150-year history. 'King's Daughters' must be correctly assessed as 'Mother of Quebec' and 'Propagator of the French language' in the history.
