This study is focused on the amount of time spent on child care by mothers with preschool children with developmental disabilities. It is designed to find out how much time mothers spend taking care of their children and to identify related factors. The subjects of this study are 162 mothers of children with developmental disabilities residing in Seoul. The findings are as follows: First, mothers with preschool children with developmental disabilities spent 6 hours and 50 minutes per day caring for their children during weekdays and 6 hours and 10 minutes on weekend days. This is double the amount of time spent by the average mother with preschool children. Second, mothers spent much more time caring for their disabled children than they do for their children without disabilities. Third, determinants of a mother's time for caring their disabled child during weekdays were mother's employment, the number of children, and gender of the disabled child. On weekend days, determinants of mother's care time were the number of children and husband's help for childrearing.

This study examined the role of maternal attribution in parenting behaviors of mothers who have a child with developmental disabilities. Using an attributional model, it assessed whether maternal attributions about the child's knowledge, capacity, expectation, and responsibility for behavior problems have effects on maternal behaviors of affect, authoritarian control, and overprotect. The sample consisted of 161 mothers of elementary children with developmental disabilities. Multivariate regression analysis revealed that maternal attribution about the child's capacity for misbehavior had positive influence on maternal affect and negative influence on authoritarian control behaviors, and that maternal attribution of responsibility for misbehavior positively influenced maternal authoritarian control and overprotect behaviors. Also, maternal attribution about the child's knowledge for misbehavior had negative influence on maternal overprotect behaviors. In addition, such background factors as number of disability, maternal education, and job of mother were significant predictors for maternal attribution, while maternal self-esteem was a strong significant predictor for mothering behaviors. The findings suggest the importance of maternal attributions in parenting.

본 연구는 발달장애인 자녀 어머니의 양육부담감과 우울과의 관계를 살펴보고, 이 관계에서 탄력성의 조절효과를 검증하는 데 목적이 있다. 조사대상자는 경기 지역 15개소의 지역사회복지관 및 치료센터에서 발달장애인 관련 프로그램을 이용하는 어머니 200명이다. 연구결과, 첫째, 발달장애인 자녀 어머니의 우울 수준을 분석한 결과, 전체 대상자 중 우울 위험군에 속하는 비율이 15%로 나타나 우울 문제가 심각한 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 발달장애인 자녀 어머니의 양육부담감은 우울에 영향을 미쳤고, 탄력성은 양육부담감이 우울에 미치는 영향을 완화시키는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 발달장애인 자녀를 양육하는 어머니의 우울문제를 예방하기 위한 효과적인 전략으로서 양육부담감을 완화시키는 지원 외에도 어머니의 탄력성을 강화하는 개입이 병행될 필요가 있음을 제시하였다.

본 연구는 신체기능장애와 발달장애아동 어머니의 장애수용, 스트레스, 대처방식, 웰니스 정도를 비교하여, 유형별 장애아동 어머니를 위한 효율적인 관리 방안을 마련하는데 필요한 기초자료를 제공하기 위한 조사연구이다. 연구대상은 장애아동을 양육하는 어머니이다. 자료수집은 2018년 10월부터 2019년 4월까지 실시하였고, 두군 간의 차이는 t-test, ANOVA, Pearson 상관관계로 분석하였다. 연구결과, 신체기능장애와 발달장애아동 어머니의 장애수용, 스트레스, 대처방식, 웰니스 정도에 따라 두군 간의 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 신체기능장애아동 어머니의 장애수용과 대처방식(r=0.23, p=.033), 장애수용과 웰니스(r=0.51, p<.001)는 정적 상관관계를 나타냈고, 장애수용과 스트레스(r=0.72, p<.001)는 부적 상관관계를 나타냈다. 발달장애아동 어머니의 장애수용과 웰니스(r=0.40, p<.001)는 유의한 정적 상관관계를 나타냈고, 장애수용과 스트레스(r=-0.71, p<.001)는 유의한 부적상관관계를 나타냈다. 신체기능장애아동 어머니는 장애수용 정도가 높을수록 스트레스는 낮게, 대처방식과 웰니스는 높게 나타났다. 발달장애아동 어머니는 장애수용 정도가 높을수록 스트레스가 낮게, 웰니스 정도가 높게 나타났다. 신체기능장애아동 어머니의 장애수용 증진을 위해서는 스트레스를 낮춰주는 전략 및 대처방식과 웰니스를 모두 증진시켜주는 전략이 필요하고 반면 발달장애아동 어머니에게는 스트레스를 낮춰주는 전략과 웰니스를 증진시켜 주는 전략이 필요함을 알 수 있었다.

The purposes of this study were to analyze and understand the life of mothers rearing children with Down syndrome and to present basic data for overcoming the difficulties of those families. For these purposes, this study made use of the phenomenological analysis and approach with a qualitative research method. The subjects of this study are 4 mothers rearing children with Down syndrome who are beyond school age. The results were as follows. First, the reason why mothers with Down syndrome children went through psychological shock and horror was the social stigma due to the unusual appearance of children with Down syndrome. Second, the isolation with in the public education system was disclosed as a factor causing much sorrow and pain. Through this, we can recognize the importance of ensuring the equal right to receive education of children with Down syndrome. Third, the period which the mother experienced most shock and confusion was right after finding out about the disability that her child has. So, we can identify the importance of early intervention providing psychotherapy and rearing service to the parents. Fourth, the crucial factor that relieved pain and pressure from mothers was social support including family. Therefore, the social support system for mothers with Down syndrome children has to be developed and strengthened. Fifth, the crucial factor that made mother grow up during rearing experience was the reestablishment of cognition about the desired role of mothers. Through this, we can identify the importance of the mental transition process to independent thinking.
