The present study investigated the notion that supportive and harsh parenting might be transmitted across generations. Data for this study were collected from a sample of 421 two-parent families, each of which included a kindergartener. The analyses were conducted separately for the group of fathers and the group of mothers. Descriptive analysis, cronbach's $\alpha$, correlations, and t-tests were used to examine research questions. The findings indicated that 1. There was a difference between fathers and mothers in relation to disciplinary experience in childhood. Mothers perceived their disciplinary experience in childhood more supportive than did fathers. 2. Parents'supportive disciplinary experience in childhood was negatively related to the overreactivity and verbosity of current parental disciplinary practices. 3. Parents'harsh disciplinary experience in childhood was positively related to ineffective parental disciplinary practices at present 4. Fathers who perceived their disciplinary experience in childhood as more supportive exhibited less overreactive and less verbose disciplinary practices while fathers who perceived their disciplinary experience in childhood as more harsh exhibited more overreactive disciplinary practices at present. 5. Mothers who perceived their disciplinary experience in childhood as more supportive exhibited less verbose disciplinary practices while mothers who perceived their disciplinary experience in childhood as more harsh exhibited more ineffective disciplinary practices(including more overreactivity) at present.

The purpose of this study was to explore to what extent mothers and fathers differ in their disciplinary practices and to examine the relationships between quality of life and the parental disciplinary practices. The subjects of this study consisted of 220 parents(220 mothers and 220 fathers) of 5-6 years of children in Pusan. Descriptive analysis, correlation analysis, t-tests were used for data description and analysis. The major results were as follows: 1. There was a positive relationship between perceived quality of life by fathers and perceived quality of life by mothers. 2. There was a difference between fathers and mothers in relation to perceived quality of life. Fathers perceived their quality of life more highly than did mothers. 3. There were positive relations between parental educational level, household income and quality of life. 4. There were differences between fathers and mothers in relation to disciplinary practices. Fathers exhibited more effective disciplinary practices(including less overreactiveness and less verbosity) than did mothers. 5. There were no relations between parental educational level and disciplinary practices, but household income was only related to maternal disciplinary practices. 6. There were positive relations between quality of life and disciplinary practices. The higher parents perceived their quality of life, the more parents exhibited effective parental disciplinary practices.

The method of study generally includes multi-disciplinary studies, inter-disciplinary studies, cross-disciplinary studies and trans-disciplinary studies by Meeth. In the study of food, however, it can be used intersectionally or step by step. The purpose of this study was to research the types of related studies and define the food merchandise using the multi-disciplinary and inter-disciplinary studies. The food merchandise was defined all things considered menu; it was the academic system about menu design, reengineering and analysis. It constructed social science system and independent research system in holding peculiarity and speciality of it. Then, its own research field was gradually created as the practical and scientific method. Finally, further study about it will be progressed not in the merchandise but in the social science from now on.

The purpose of this study was to identify how characteristics of children, parents, and the family context relate to parental disciplinary practices and to examine the effects of cumulative positive variables on effective parental disciplinary practices. Subjects were 220 each mothers and fathers of 6-year-old children. Data were analyzed with correlation, multiple regression, and chi-square. Both Maternal and paternal disciplinary practices were correlated with child birth order, child emotionality, attention span and persistence, perceived social support and quality of life, and retrospective punitive parenting. Perceived quality of life and social support were predictive of maternal disciplinary practices and child emotionality was predictive of paternal disciplinary practices. Both mothers and fathers exposed to several positive variables were much more likely to exhibit effective disciplinary practices than parents exposed to no positive variables. Findings were generally consistent with Belsky's(1984) process model of parenting.

This primary purpose of this study was to analyze relations between child temperament and parental disciplinary practices. The subjects were 220 mothers and 220 fathers of kindergarten children. Child temperament was assessed using Colorado Childhood Temperament Inventory and parental disciplinary practices were measured by Parenting Scale. Resets indicated that (1) Fathers recognized their male children's temperament as more soothable and less emotional than those of female children whereas mothers recognized their male children's temperament as more active than those of female children. (2) Fathers recognized their children's temperament as more active than did mothers, but mothers recognized their children's temperament as more soothable than did fathers. (3) Children who were more sociable, less emotional, more sootable, and had longer attention span and persistence were related to more effective patemal disciplinary practices. (4) Children who were less emotional and had longer attention span and persistence were related to more effective maternal disciplinary practices. (5) Paternal disciplinary practices were explained by children's emotional temperament, whereas the best predictors of maternal disciplinary practices were children's emotional temperament and attention span and persistence.

The purpose of this study was to identify how characteristics of children, parents, family, and the extra context relate to disciplinary practices and to examine the cumulative effects of positive variables on effective disciplinary practices of employed and unemployed mothers. Disciplinary practices of both employed and unemployed mothers were correlated with number of child, husband support, parenting stress, social support, quality of life, and satisfaction of early childhood program. Parenting stress was the strongest predictor of disciplinary practices for both employed and unemployed mothers. Both employed and unemployed mothers exposed to several positive variables were more likely to exhibit effective disciplinary practices than mothers who were not.

This study examined the complex process of paternal disciplinary practices and identified the factors related to paternal disciplinary practices in an examination of the effects of cumulative risk factors on the ineffective disciplinary practices of fathers. The subjects for this study consisted of 200 fathers of six-year-old children attending childcare centers in Los Angeles. Self-report questionnaires were used to collect data for the following variables: 1) family background characteristics; 2) child temperament; 3) marital & job satisfaction; 4) quality of life; 5) social support; 6) intergenerational transmission of parenting; and 7) paternal disciplinary practices. Descriptive analysis, zeroorder correlations, multiple regression analyses, and chisquare analyses were used for data description and analysis. This study indicates that the characteristics of the child, father, and contextual factors contribute to paternal disciplinary practices.

Thise study is designed to demonstrate the influence of socio-demographic variables(age, education, career history and marital Status), alexithymia, burnout, and adult attachment on child disciplinary styles; childcare teachers in charge of young children were studied. The purpose of the study is to provide information about the desirable disciplinary styles of a childcare teacher in order to strengthen the quality of childcare education. The data collected in this study showed the following results: First, the age, education, career history and marital status of a teacher produced good results statistically irrelevant to the their child disciplinary style. Second, a high level of negative correlation was found among alexithymia, burnout, adult attachment and the child disciplinary style of a childcare teacher. In other words, if a teacher shows a high level of alexithymia, burnout, and adult attachment, it is likely that the teacher's child disciplinary style is coercive and neglect, and the teacher tends to give an illogical explanation. Third, in contrast to the other variables, burnout and adult attachment have a greater effect on child disciplinary style than alexithymia.

It has been a point of dispute how to define the disciplinary identity of STS; science and technology studies or science, technology and society? Still, STS is now emerging as an autonomous research discipline with its own agendas and styles of reasoning from a mere collections of various meta disciplines such as philosophy of science, history of science and sociology of science. The paper discusses how philosophy of science in its cross-disciplineary mode can contribute to STS (understood as science and technology studies) research given these recent academic trends. We can start from the observation that there are two distinctive ways of doing cross-disciplinary research: inter-disciplinary and multi-disciplinary. Then it is shown with concrete examples how philosophy of science can productively participate in both ways of cross-disciplinary researches in STS.

The increasing complexity of design disciplines expects new theoretical contribution to re-examine the territory of their own practice. The ambition of this paper is to theorize the possibilities of trans-disciplinary landscape architecture with the following three perspectives. First, it traces the canonical influence of Picturesque aesthetics as an agency to confirm the trans-disciplinary work at around-Olmsted period. Second, it investigates the evolving role of collaboration in contemporary Dutch landscape architectural context with the comparison to American modernist approaches to legitimate the trans-disciplinary mechanism. Third, it articulates three series of 'The-Idea-of-Nature' and the trans-disciplinary productions derived from each idea within a theoretical terrain of landscape architecture. And eventually, the author proposes 'multiplicity' of nature, replacing conventional concept of singular nature, to mobilize the location of this discipline and to project the possibility of new core ground beyond the existing theoretical gravity.
