This study examined the effects of mother's parenting and children's reflection on the development of self-control in the resistance to temptation situation. Subjects were 85 3-, 4- and 5- year old children attending educational preschool and their mothers. Each subject's activities were videotaped for 10 minutes in the experimental settings. Children's reflection was evaluated by Kagan's Matching Familiar Figures Test(MFF). Mothers completed a parenting questionnaire. Results showed no age or sex difference in resistance to temptation. Task patience increased with age, and girls had more task patience than boys. Children's resistance to temptation and task patience correlated with children's reflection and mother's parenting. Children's MFF latency and mother's permissiveness-nonintervention predicted children's resistance to temptation. Children's MFF errors, sex, age and mother's warmth-acceptance predicted children's task patience.

This study examined the relationships between children's perceptions of mothers' psychological control, and children's behavior problems(depression, anxiety, withdrawal, and aggression). In order to expand the study on the relationships, special attention was given to the possible moderator effects of children's sex and peer acceptance on the relationships. The subjects were 272 6th graders residing in Seoul. It was found that children's perceptions of mothers' psychological control was significantly related with the levels of children's depression, anxiety, withdrawal, and aggression. The results indicated that mothers' higher psychological control was related to higher levels of children's depression, anxiety, withdrawal, and aggression. No significant sex difference was found in the relationship between children's perceptions of mothers' psychological control and children's behavior problems although all of the correlations between mothers' psychological control and each of the behavior problem variables were somewhat higher among boys than among girls. Children's perceptions of peer acceptance were found to be a significant moderator of the relationship between mothers' psychological control and children's depression, and of the relationship between mothers' psychological control and children's aggression. These findings indicated that peer acceptance could function as a protecting factor for children who perceive their mothers to be psychologically controlling.

There was no difference in level of self-concept between urban boys and girls, but boys in both farming and fishing areas demonstrated a higher level than girls. In all 3 areas, androgynous children evaluated themselves positively whereas undifferentiated children evaluated themselves negatively. There were significant differences in self-concept according to sex, living area, and sex role category.

본 연구는 성별과 연령에 따른 자기조절 능력 및 다중지능에서의 차이를 검증하고, 다중지능이 자기조절 능력에 미치는 영향을 살펴 향후 유아의 자기조절 능력 향상을 위한 프로그램개발에 도움을 주는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 연구의 목적을 위하여 유치원에 재원 중인 만 3, 4, 5세 유아의 어머니와 담임교사를 대상으로 자기조절 능력과 다중지능 설문지를 실시하였다. 연구결과를 살펴보면 첫째, 연령과 성별에 따른 자기조절 능력의 차이를 살펴본 결과 성별과 연령에서 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 둘째, 연령과 성별에 따른 다중지능의 차이를 살펴본 결과 공간지능, 언어지능에서 연령(5세, 4세>3세)과 성별(여아>남아)에서 유의한 차이가 나타났으며, 논리 수학지능, 대인관계지능은 연령(5세, 4세>3세)에서만 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 다음으로 음악지능과 개인이해지능에서는 성별(여아>남아)에서만 유의한 차이가 나타났으나 신체 운동지능에서는 연령과 성별에서 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 셋째, 유아 자기조절 능력과 다중지능간의 상관관계를 살펴본 결과 정적상관관계가 나타났으며 자기조절 능력에 대한 다중지능의 영향력을 살펴본 결과, 개인이해지능, 언어지능, 공간지능, 논리 수학지능 순으로 영향력이 높게 나타났다.
