Subjects were 78 12- to 35- month old infants, their mothers, and their teachers. Instruments included the Revised Toddler Temperament Questionnaire(Y. H. Choi 1990) and the Assessment Profile for Early Childhood Programs(M. K. Hong 1997; S. K. Kim 1999). There was no significant difference in perceptions of infant temperament between mothers and teachers. Infant-mother interaction differed by infant temperament in that mothers had high scores with easy infants but low scores with difficult children. On the other hand teachers maintained high interactions with difficult infants in the case of infant's rhythmicity. Infant-teacher interaction correlated with such teacher variables as teacher-infant ratio, teachers' academic backgrounds and working hours.

In this study, the perceptions and responses of 136 kindergarten children from middle SES families were recorded in one-to-one interviews about the cause, reasons for expression, and responses to negative emotions. Results showed that children perceived he causes of anger and sadness as 'interpersonal events' and they perceived he cause of fear to be 'fantasy/scary events'. The children tended not to express their negative emotions because they expected negative responses from their peers and mothers, but when they did, the expressed their negative emotions to their mothers rather than to peers. Children responded to the negative emotions of their peers with 'problem-solving focused strategies', but they responded to their mothers' negative emotions with passive strategies, such as 'emotion focused response' and 'avoidance'.

This study examined mothers' perceptions on nutrition education for elementary school students according to demographical factors. Questionnaires were distributed to the mothers of 511 elementary school students in the Busan area. According to the results, 50% of the respondents felt that the preschool years or the lower elementary grades were proper times to start nutrition education. Furthermore, they preferred school dietitians (55.4%), outside professional dietitians (16.3%), nurse teachers (13.8%), class room teachers (11.7%), and parents (2.8%) as nutrition educators. The mothers who were college and university graduates had significantly (p<0.001) higher scores regarding the necessity of nutrition education for student growth when compared to mothers who were high schools graduates. However, the high school graduates had significantly (p<0.001) higher scores than the college and university graduates with respect to nutrition education for correcting obesity. The order of importance for nutrition education curriculum content was as follows: eating habits, food safety, health and disease, maintaining ideal body weight, food waste and environment, basic food knowledge, and traditional foods. The college and university graduates, and those of 'A' group schools, had significantly (p<0.001) higher importance scores for proper eating habits. Mothers having experience with nutrition education comprised 43.9% of the subjects, and there was a significantly (p<0.05) higher percentage of employed mothers as compared to unemployed. Eighty-six percent of the respondents wanted to receive nutrition education. For more effective learning, they preferred in-person group education rather than correspondence education using e-mails or printed materials from schools.

이 연구는 발달장애 자녀를 둔 어머니의 양육부담과 성장경험을 이해하고자 한 것이다. 이를 위해 오케스트라 활동에 참여하는 발달장애 자녀를 둔 어머니를 대상으로 포토보이스를 활용한 초점집단인터뷰와 개별면접을 실시하였다. 분석 결과, 발달장애 자녀를 둔 어머니의 양육 경험은 "눈앞이 캄캄해도 걸어감"으로 나타났으며, 이 과정에서 어머니들은 "동행하며 함께 나아감"을 경험하는 것으로 나타났다. 어머니들은 자녀의 발달장애로 인해 여러 고통과 어려움을 경험하면서도 양육과정에서 또 다른 기쁨과 성장을 경험하고 있었다. 특히 오케스트라 활동이라는 매개체를 통해, 어머니는 자녀에 대한 인식 뿐 아니라 양육자로서의 자신에 대한 인식, 주변 지지체계와의 관계에도 의미있는 변화가 나타남이 확인되었다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 이 연구는 사회복지적 함의를 제시하고 있다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate how pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) nurses and the mothers of hospitalized children perceived their partnership and identify the detailed differences in the common domains of partnership between them. Methods: A qualitative descriptive design with semi-structured and open-ended interviews was used. Interviews with mothers of hospitalized children and nurses in the PICU were conducted at a national university hospital in South Korea. Results: Five integrated categories were identified concerning nurses' and mothers' perceptions of partnership. Five common domains were derived by merging the partnership categories perceived by each PICU mother and nurse: expectation of trust, sharing and communication, participation in care, equality in the relationship, and coordination of opinion However, there were significant differences in the composition of the categories of these common domains. Conclusion: These results may facilitate more effective partnerships between parents and PICU nurses. Efforts should be taken to promote the formation of trust between nurses and parents and create an environment that is conductive to regular open communication in particular, steps should be taken to reduce gaps in awareness concerning this partnership and information sharing, nursing methods, and decision-making.

본 연구는 장애 및 비 장애유아의 모가 인식하는 문제행동 유형, 원인, 지도방법의 차이를 알아보고, 모의 사회 인구학적 변인, 유아의 문제행동 유형, 원인이 지도방법에 미치는 영향에 대해 분석하였다. 이를 위해 서울과 경기지역에 거주하는 만 2세부터 취학 전 자녀를 둔 비 장애유아 모 100명과 장애유아 모 76명, 총 176명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 연구 결과는 첫째, 문제행동 유형에서 내재화 문제행동과 사회적 활동의 기피요인이 대상 간에 통계적으로 유의미한 차이를 보였다. 둘째, 문제행동의 원인에서는 유아의 행동과 특성 요인에서 대상 간 유의미한 차이가 나타났다. 셋째, 문제행동 지도방법에서는 가정에서의 지원환경 구축과 사회정서 전략요인이 통계적으로 유의미한 차이를 나타냈다. 마지막으로, 비 장애 유아는 모의 사회 인구학적 변인 중 모의 최종학력과 유아의 특성 요인이, 장애유아는 모의 사회 인구학적 변인 중 월 가계소득과 유아의 기타 요인이 문제행동을 지도하는데 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되었다. 이와 같은 연구결과를 토대로 실천적용 방안을 제시하였다. 연구의 제한점과 후속 연구 제안을 추가적으로 논의하였다.

This study had a three fold-research purpose. The first research purpose was to understand parenting issues the families with one child are facing. The second purpose was to examine any differences in variables of interest in this study between the two subgroups of this study sorted by maternal employment status. Finally, this study examined which variables of interest in this study predict maternal self-efficacy. The variables of interest in this study included: 1) family demographic variables, 2) maternal self-efficacy, 3) parenting stress, 4) maternal satisfactions with contextual factors, and 5) maternal perceptions of effectiveness of birth-rate promotion policies. The sample consisted of 276 mothers selected from the one child families and the mothers sampled were asked to fill out the self-administered surveys which had been developed for the purpose of this study. The main results of this study were as follows. Overall, the mothers of this study did not have high levels of maternal self-efficacy, when SES of this sample was taken into consideration. Non-working mothers had higher levels of maternal self-efficacy than working mothers. No significant differences were found in parenting stress levels between the two subgroups. There were significant group differences in maternal perceptions of the effectiveness of birth- rate promotion policies.

This study aims at exploring Korean mothers' beliefs on the development of emotion of their children. In specific, sensitivity and maternal reactions to their children's both negative and positive emotion expressions were explored. Further, associations among maternal sensitivity, maternal reactions and child emotion regulation were examined. A total of 100 Korean mothers whose children were between 6 and 7 years old participated in the study. In order to assess mothers' beliefs about sensitivity, vignettes in a forced-choice format were presented through individual interviews. Mothers' self reported reactions to their children's negative emotions and positive emotions and mothers' perceptions of children's emotion regulation were assessed using questionnaires. Results revealed that Korean mothers endorsed both proactive and reactive sensitivity. However, their sensitivity differed depending on the situation. Mothers tended to endorse either Emotion Focused or Problem Focused reactions to their children's negative emotions. Mothers reported that they were most likely to restrict their child positive emotional expression with explanation in supportive way followed by invalidating through reprimanding it. Mothers' reported Distress Reactions and Punitive Reactions to children's expression of negative emotion were associated with children's liability whereas Emotion-Focused Reaction and Problem-Focused Reaction were associated with children's functional emotion regulation. The results are discussed within a theoretical framework of socialization of emotions.
