The objective of this study was to examine the effect of acculturation stage on dietary intake of Korean American women (0=124) living in California and to compare the dietary intake with that of Korean women (0=191) in Seoul, Korea. The dietary intake of the subjects was collected by 24-hour recall method at cross-sectional surveys. Ouster analysis performed on immigration variables (e.g., length of residency, age at immigration, etc.) classified Korean American women into less (0=73) or more (n=51) acculturated group. Acculturation stage did not have a significant effect on macro nutrient intake. However, vitamin C intake was higher in the more acculturated group, while intakes of folate, calcium, iron, and zinc were higher in the less acculturated group. In comparison of three groups (the more and the less acculturated Korean American, and the Korean group), the more acculturated the women were, the less frequently they consumed rice and kimchi (p<0.05). Korean American women ate bread/noodle, meat/meat products, fruit juice, and soda more often and consumed vegetables less frequently, compared with Korean women (p<0.05). For breakfast, Western dishes were preferred in both more and less acculturated groups. Korean dishes were favored for dinner by both groups, even though the less acculturated group ate more Korean dishes than did the more acculturated group. The acculturation measured by immigration variables influenced nutrient intakes, food consumptions, and types of dishes eaten in Korean Americans. Cultural and health implications of dietary acculturation need to be studied in the future.

본 연구의 목적은 정부가 추진하고 있는 청소년 인터넷중독 대응(예방 및 해소) 정책의 추진과정에서 발생한 정책딜레마의 발생 원인과 대응 전략을 분석하는 것이다. 이의 분석을 위해 딜레마 모형을 분석틀로 하여 맥락 및 상황변화, 정책가치와 대안 변화, 정책 행위자, 정책 결정자의 대응 전략을 통해 변화한 딜레마의 양상을 분석하였다. 분석결과의 주요 내용은 첫째, 청소년 인터넷중독 예방 및 해소정책 추진과정에서 '맥락과 상황 변화', '정책의 가치와 대안', '정책행위자', '정책결정자'는 정책 전반의 딜레마를 형성하는데 결정적인 원인으로 작용하였다. 둘째, 정책딜레마 상황에서 정부의 정책대응 전략은 정책중복 및 대립 발생, 형식적 대응, 가치 재규정 형태로 나타났다. 이에 따라 결과적으로 다음의 특징이 드러났다. 첫째, 정부는 하나의 정책 내에 정책중복과 대립의 문제가 발생하자 해당딜레마를 형식적으로 대응함으로써 더욱 강력한 딜레마를 초래했다. 둘째, 정부는 두 가지 가치(청소년 보호 및 게임 산업 진흥)를 재규정하고자 노력하였고, 이 결과 정책딜레마는 전보다 약화되었지만, 근본적 딜레마의 문제를 해결하지는 못하였음이 드러났다. 본 연구는 분석결과를 바탕으로 추후 심화되는 정보사회생태에서 보다 실효적인 청소년 인터넷중독 대응정책의 추진을 위해 범정부 차원의 통합적 정책 가치 및 비전 수립하여 일관되고 내실 있는 정책 추진을 위한 시사점을 제안하였다.

Objectives: This study is to investigate life style and weight control based on the body mass index, and tongue diagnosis in adolescent girls. Help controling unnecessary weight and establishing proper understanding of desirable body images and healthy life for adolescents are expected. Methods: The questionnaire surveys and physical examinations were conducted to examine the life style, weight-control behaviors, and the health status of 173 adolescent girls in Jeonju. Among the students surveyed, 162 answered seriously and were accepted as subjects for the study. Results: 1. The mean height was 160.4 cm and weight was 54.21 kg. The mean BMI of the girls was 21.1 kg/m2, which is normal. The percentages of the normal weight group (71.6%), overweight group (16.7%), obesity group (9.9%), underweight group (1.9%) were shown respectively. 2. The oriental medicine doctor examined the tongue diagnosis. The thin and white tongue fur was the most common (20.7%). This diagnosis showed no statistical significance to BMI. 3. The ideal height for the girls was 165 cm, and the ideal weight was 49 kg. 4. A considerable number of girls (50.6%) thought that a thin body figure was the most beautiful body shape for the women. 5. Even though the percentages of an actual overweight or obese group were 26.6%, 42.0% of the girls thought that they were plump. 6. 94.83% of the normal weight group concerned about the weight regulation. 7. Many girls were dissatisfied with their own body shape, and 86.9% of girls regarded being in a shape was important. 70.69% of the normal weight group answered that they were under stress of their body shapes. Conclusions: The findings of this study demonstrate that there are serious misconceptions on body shapes of the adolescent girls, and mostly, unnecessary and inadequate weight control behaviors were done. Therefore, establishing adequately education on their desirable body images and healthy life is needed for the adolescent girls. In this study, there is no significant relationship between BMI and tongue diagnosis. For the number of subjects is not enough, further study on the relationship between the two is expected.

본 연구는 청소년 자살성(suicidality)의 성별차이를 일반긴장이론(general strain theory)에 근거하여 살펴보았다. 이를 위해 서울시 서대문구 3개 중학교 학생 819명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시한 후 t-test와 로지스틱 회귀분석(logistic regression)을 사용하여 자료를 분석하였다. 그 결과 첫째, 관계적 긴장에 해당하는 아버지의 학대 피해와 학교폭력 피해는 남자 중학생의 경험이 유의미하게 더 많았다. 둘째, 자살성에 영향을 미치는 요인에서 남자 중학생은 지위적 긴장에 해당하는 경제적 상황이, 여자 중학생은 관계적 긴장 요인에 해당하는 아버지의 비신체적 학대 피해가 유의미한 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 비신체적 학교폭력 피해는 남녀 모두의 자살성에 유의미한 영향요인이었다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 중학생의 주요 생활환경인 가정과 학교에서의 사회복지적 접근을 통해 남자 중학생의 지위적 특성과 여자 중학생의 관계적 특성에 주목한 개입이 이루어져야 하며 학교사회복지사 및 관련기관의 네트워크가 필요함을 제시하였다.

Longitudinal studies have shown mixed findings on the association between body image dissatisfaction and self-esteem among adolescents. This study examined the longitudinal, reciprocal influences between body image dissatisfaction and self-esteem among Korean pre- and early adolescents by using nationally representative longitudinal panel data from the Korean Youth Panel Study (KYPS). Analyses based on 2,230 participants indicated that girls' body image dissatisfaction was significantly higher than boys'. The trajectory of body image dissatisfaction increased sharply during pre- and early adolescence, but stabilized afterwards for both boys and girls. Self-esteem deteriorated rapidly initially, but began to recover as adolescent girls and boys matured. Structural equation modeling showed that reciprocal influences between body image dissatisfaction and self-esteem were detected for boys. Body image dissatisfaction among girls predicted self-esteem during the entire period, while the opposite direction from self-esteem to body image dissatisfaction emerged two years later. The present study found that, during pre- and early adolescence, body image dissatisfaction and self-esteem develop in a circular fashion by forming a vicious cycle. Implications for the development of intervention and prevention programs are discussed in consideration of age and gender.

This study was conducted to provide information about weight control behavior in adolescent females. To explain the behavior intention of dieting, conceptual framework based on "Social Support, Control and the Stress Process Model" and "Theory of Reasoned Action" was used. The survey was carried out by self-questionnaires with 463 female high school and college students in Daegu. Analysis of data was done using mean, correlation and multiple regression analysis with the SAS computer program. A society preoccupied with thinness gives a burden to women, and this burden may stress dissatisfaction with body image. Social perception of ideal body image except parents' perception, and salient others'perception, and salient others' expectation of subjects' body image except parents' expectation, were much thinner than normal figures in this study.

Objectives: In recent years, pregnancy rate among female adolescents has increased and caused a variety of physical and social problems. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate sexual behavior, delinquent behavior, and pregnancy rate among Korean female adolescents. Methods: In light of the growing interest in adolescent pregnancy, this study conducted a web-based survey, titled "The 2006 Youth Health Risk Behavior Survey." The Korean Center for Disease Control (KCDC) collected questionnaire responses from 34,200 young women. The collected data were analyzed through chi-square test and logistic regression using SPSS Win 14.0 version. Results: This study analyzed main factors, which can predict pregnant experience. The statistic results showed two types of the predicting factors: (1) personal factors: sexual relations after drinking (odds 25.1), Narcotic drug taking (odds 13.0), sexual violence act (odds 7.0), part-time job(odds 2.5), drinking, smoking ; and (2) environmental factors: stepfather(odds 4.2) and natural mother. Conclusion: The influential factor identification for predicting pregnancy rate is important to develop an effective education program for preventing the adolescent pregnancy. The education programs with referring to the identified factors can contribute to reducing the unwilling pregnancy rate of young woman.
