This study was conducted on 175 child-care teachers, who participated in in-service education, to research the methods to improve child-care teacher's nutrition management capability for infants and children. Investigated results of child-care teachers' nutrition knowledge, dietary attitude status, and needs on nutrition education in child-care centers are as follows: The score of child-care teachers' nutrition knowledge was 10.83 points out of 15, which is about 72%. Total score increased as teachers' age but not significantly different from their career duration, since teachers who have a child-care career less than 5 years acquired 10.91 points, which is higher than 10.64 points of teachers having more than 5 years of child-care career. Teachers' average recognition to the nutrition knowledge was 90.6%, increased significantly by the older they are, and decreased according to the accumulation of their career. The average accuracy of the nutrition knowledge was 79.7%, increased in proportion to the teachers' age. The marks of child-care teachers' dietary attitude were 41.3 points (possible score range 5-50) and 83%, older teachers tended to have more desirable dietary attitude. As indicated by the increment of child-care career, the score of emotional attitude tended to be increased but which of cognitive and behavioral attitude showed a declining tendency. Nutrition information which child-care teachers were mainly interested in were correct selection of food (58.1%), obesity and weight management (52.7%), and nutrient content of food (44.9%). Nutrition education contents which child-care teachers needed were 'nutritious food and menu for child' (72.2%), 'health management of child' (69.2%) and meal management of child (40.2%). Nutrition education methods, which child-care teachers considered as of desirable ones, were cooking class of small scale (31.8%), visiting class at child-care center (26.5%). In consequence, the nutrition knowledge and dietary attitude of child-care teachers were not good and showed different issues by age and career duration. Therefore, it is requisite to intensify nutrition management courses in child-care teachers' qualification and in-service education courses which has actual necessity and suitability based on teachers' age, career, and the type of child-care center, and to disseminate these through public health centers and child-care & education information centers to pursue the efficient balance of nutrition education programs.

Methods: Survey methodology using a self administered questionnaire was employed as the research design. Knowledge and attitude were measured with a questionnaire modified from Jerome, Gordon, and Hustler (1994) and Ghanizadeh, Bahredar, and Moeini (2006). Of 223 questionnaires mailed out to 42 daycare centers in one district in Seoul, 164 questionnaires (73.5%) were used for data analysis. Data analysis was done using SPSS.WIN 15.0. Results: The mean score on knowledge for the teachers was 11.27 (59.3%) out of maximum score of 19. For question items, the percentage of correct answers related to etiology of ADHD was under 10% and the correct rate regarding treatment of ADHD was over 90%. Preschool teachers had a mean score on attitude of 20.77 out of 33. Less than 50% of the teachers reported positive attitudes toward the child with ADHD and over 90% agreed that the child with ADHD needs a special environment and specially trained teachers. Age (r=.236, p=.002) and marital status (t=-3.661, p=.000) were significantly related to attitude toward the child with ADHD. Knowledge and attitude had a significant positive correlation (r=.245, p=.001). Conclusion: These results suggest that educational programs and strategies should be developed to increase knowledge of preschool teachers on ADHD. Public health nurses also need to develop and implement education programs for teachers at daycare centers and others involved in child care in the community.

본 연구의 목적은 어린이집 유아교사들의 과학교수효능감과 유아의 과학적 태도가 어떤 관계를 보이는지 살펴 본 후, 교사-영유아와의 상호작용의 질을 높일 수 있는 매개변인으로 교수창의성을 투입하여 교사 영유아와의 관계가 어떻게 변화되는지를 알아보는 것이다. 본 연구는 2018년 경기 수원지역의 어린이집 유아교사 303명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였고, 자료 분석을 위해 SPSS 23.0과 AMOS 23.0을 이용하여 구조방정식 모형과 Sobel-test를 실시하였다. 분석결과, 유아교사의 과학교수효능감은 유아교사의 창의성과 유아의 과학적 태도에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 유아교사의 창의성은 유아의 과학적 태도에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. Sobel-test 결과, 유아교사의 과학교수효능감과 유아의 과학적 태도 간의 관계에서 유아교사의 창의성은 매개역할을 하여 유아의 과학적 태도를 증진시키는 데에 중요한 변수로 작용하였다. 결론적으로 유아교사의 교수 창의성은 유아의 과학적 태도 향상을 위해 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 중요한 변인임을 확인하였다. 따라서 유아교사가 과학교수활동을 할 때 교수 창의성을 높일 수 있는 교육이 동시에 제공된다면 유아의 과학적 태도의 질을 높이는데 기여할 수 있을 것이다.
