The purpose of this study was to examine which sibling and parent-child characteristics were associated with siblisng warmth and conflict among Korean young adults. The data came from an online survey of Koreans aged 19-34 years who had at least one sibling and two living parents. We conducted a multilevel regression analysis using data from 193 men with 305 siblings and 203 women with 286 siblings. The results showed that, for men, the levels of warmth were higher when the sibling was younger, when they received more frequent financial and instrumental support from the sibling, and when maternal favoritism was relatively lower. Women reported higher levels of warmth when the sibling was a sister, when they provided more frequent support for the sibling, when they had a more affectionate relationship with the mother, and when paternal favoritism was lower. As for sibling conflict, the number of siblings was positively associated with the levels of conflict among both men and women. Maternal affection was negatively related with conflict for men, and paternal favoritism was positively related to conflict for women. Interestingly, women's sibling warmth and conflict were both higher when the sibling was a sister, which meant that relationships between sisters tended to be ambivalent. This study contributes to our understandings of Koreans' sibling relationships in young adulthood.

본 연구의 목적은 청소년 대상 예비부모교육의 효과성을 검증하는 것이다. 이를 위해 청소년 대상의 예비부모교육 프로그램을 개발하여 서울, 충남, 광주 지역 중 고등학교에 "부모-자녀 의사소통 교육", "아버지됨의 이해 교육", "자기 이해를 통한 부모됨의 준비교육"을 주제로 예비부모교육 프로그램을 실행하고 자기기입식 사전 사후 조사를 통해 효과성을 분석하였다. 수집된 97명의 설문지를 빈도 분석, 백분율, 대응표본 t검증, One way ANOVA로 분석하였다. 주요한 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 예비부모교육에 대한 필요성과 정규 교육과정 편성에 대한 필요성 인식이 사전 사후 유의미한 차이가 있으므로, 일시적이고 한시적인 예비부모교육 운영보다는 청소년의 욕구에 부응할 수 있는 학교급별 정기적인 예비부모교육을 실시할 필요가 있다. 둘째, 조사대상자들이 자녀를 출산하지 않는 이유로 '양육 부담감'을 높게 인식하고 있으므로, 예비부모교육에서 양육기술과 정보를 구체적으로 다룰 필요가 있다. 셋째, 부모역할 수행에 대한 인식은 사전 사후 유의미한 차이가 있는 만큼 예비부모교육 참여를 통해서 부모역할 수행에 대한 인식이 긍정적으로 변화할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, "아버지됨의 이해 교육" 참여자들은 성역할의 변화가 없었지만, "부모-자녀 의사소통 교육" 참여자들은 의사소통 인식의 변화가 유의미하였고, "자기이해를 통한 부모됨의 준비교육" 참여자들도 자아존중감 인식의 변화가 있었다. 본 연구결과를 통해 예비부모교육의 효과성이 검증된 바, 공교육에서 유일하게 예비부모교육을 담당하는 가정교과가 더욱 강화되어야 함을 시사한다.

This study examines the factors that are associated with the choice of the Sanhujoriwon utilization among the Korean postpartal women. Data were collected from 140 postpartal women in 9 hospitals around Seoul. Data were analyzed based on descriptive statistics and chi-square test. The results were as follows: 1. Forty percent of the respondents chose to go to a Sanhujoriwon while they were in a hospital after having given birth to a child. 2. The number of persons who could help a respondent beside her husband showed a statistically significant association with the choice of the Sanhujoriwon utilization. In addition, burden from multiple roles expected after the birth was positively associated with the choice of the Sanhujoriwon utilization. Recommendations by husbands or friends to use the Sanhujoriwon also increased the proportion of the choice of the Sanhujoriwon utilization. 3. Knowledge about the Sanhujoriwon appeared to be an important factor. Having heard about the Sanhujoriwon, an appropriateness of the price, and a positive image of the Sanhujoriwon were positively associated with the choice of the Sanhujoriwon utilization. It was expected that the degree of depressive symptoms and confidence of raising a newborn baby would affect the Sanhujoriwon utilization. This was not the case in this study. Intimacy developed between the postpartal women, their husbands and their relatives as well as parents in-law did not show a statistically significant relationship to the choice of the utilization. Implication of these findings and major findings of this study were discussed.

Objectives : The 1990s has seen advances in the conceptualization of self-perceived health status which has important roles for individual health and the quality of life. Many types of standardized questionnaires have been developed with the current wide use of SF-36, NHP, andEuroQol. However, the outcomes of these tools may be different with regard to regional, cultural and emotional backgrounds. The purpose of this study was to trial the development of a Korean Health Profile (KHP 1.0) to measure the self-perceived health stati of Koreans. Methods : The KHP 1.0 was designed on the basis of the Medical Outcome Study Form 36 (SF-36), the Nottingham Health Profile (NHP), and the EuroQOL. It was composed of 9 scales; physical functioning, role limitation-physical, pain, general health, energy, social isolation, sleep, role limitation-emotional, and e-motional health. Self-reported chronic disease conditions, and the Zung's Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS), were also checked for the evaluation of clinical validity. This study was conducted, from December 2000 to January 2001, on 800 middle-aged parents, with four high school students, with 100 retest sets being conducted two weeks later. From the 800 subjects there were 588 complete responses (effective response 73.5%). The reliability of the test-retest results, and the factor analysis on the validity of the KHP 1.0 components, were evaluated using the SPSS (ver 10.0) software. Results : The reliability of the KHP 1.0 was good with Cronbach's alpha (>0.6), test-retest correlation coefficients (>0.5), but with no significant differences from the paired t-test. From the psychometric validity tests, the 9 scales of the KHP 1.0 were divided into two components; physical and mental, and trimmed to the established model with 55% of the total variance, with the exception of role limitation-emotional. The clinical validity on the basis of the comparison for the four characteristic groups; healthy, physical conditions only, mental conditions only, and physical and mental conditions were also good. Conclusions : The KHP 1.0 appears to be a valid measurement tool of self-perceived health stati of Koreans, although there are limitations, i.e. sample size was too small, a limited number of middle-aged subjects, and it was based on unconfirmed diagnoses, etc. Therefore, further study is required to standardize the assessment.

Background : In many university hospitals, intravenous(IV) therapies and samplings had been one of the most important works of doctors who are in training. However, recently as patient oriented care is becoming more weighted for qualified health service IV therapies should be the works of specialized personnels. This study was conducted to investigate the medical staff's perception on IV team, to survey patient or parent's expectation on IV team, and to assess the frequency of IV therapy related complications and the characteristics of phlebitis among the hospitalized children. Methods : We collected data prospectively before the start of IV team from February 22 to February 29. 1999 and from September 27 to October 3, 1999, 6 months after beginning of IV team at Seoul National University Children's Hospital. IV team started their activities from March 1, 1999. General pediatric wards were not included for the IV and sampling team and oncology ward and surgical units were all included for the IV and sampling team's work. IV specialist was the well trained nurse who had been working in the field of pediatrics especially for the oncology patients. The subjects of this study were medical staffs who were working in children's hospital as doctors in training and patients who were treated with IV therapies in children's hospital during the same period. Results : Doctors responded that IV team need to be organized for IV care and expected IV team could reduce their work load. Parents of patients also responded IV team was very improtant to perform high quality IV care. They had willingness to pay extra charge for IV team care. In the wards where IV team did not work, they used various kinds and sizes of catheters, but in the wards where IV team worked, they needed just one or two types of catheters. As the exact role of IV team is not still established, job description is needed between the IV team and medical doctors. In the aspects of medical costs. it could save the materials for the IV also. Conclusion : This study showed that IV team could increase patient's satisfaction with decrease of medical doctors work load and concomitantly could save the costs of IV materials. And for the expansion of the IV team, job description is needed and for the total care of the children IV specialist and sampling team should expand their roles.

본 연구에서는 우리나라의 사교육 과잉 문제에 대한 해결 방안을 선진복지국가의 사교육과 소득재분배제도를 비교 분석하는 방법으로 제시하고자 한다. 정부는 오랜 시간 동안 사교육 과잉 문제를 해결하기 위해 다양한 대책들을 도입하였다. 하지만 사교육비 증가 추세는 멈추고 있지 않다. 사교육 과잉 현상은 분명히 대학 입시와 관련되어 있다. 하지만 단순히 대학 입시 자체만 관련되어 있는 것은 아니다. 우리나라에서 대학의 의미는 미래의 삶의 수준과 밀접하게 연관되어 있다. 따라서 사교육 참여는 안정적인 미래를 보장하기 위한 학부모나 학생의 합리적 선택이다. 명문 대학교에 진학해야만 미래의 삶이 안정될 수 있다는 믿음과 실제로 이런 믿음을 반영한 노동시장의 현실이 사교육 과잉 현상의 본질적인 원인이다. 스웨덴과 독일 같은 선진 복지국가들이 우리나라에 희망을 제공한다. 이들 국가들에도 사교육은 존재한다. 하지만 그 비중이 크지 않고, 역할도 대학 입시와 반드시 직결되어 있지 않다. 소득 재분배 제도가 모든 사회 구성원의 삶을 일정 수준에서 보장해주고 있기 때문이다. 사교육 과잉 문제의 해결 방안은 입시 제도가 아니라 소득보장 제도의 개선에 있다.

This study aims to study the discourses influencing high school students' concept and attitude toward mathematics, and to examine how gender differences concerning mathematical aptitude are created. This study is based on the results of previous two studies which suggested that mathematical competence differs not only according to gender, region and school year, but also even within the same gender. For this study, 12 students ranking in the top 10% at two co-ed high schools were interviewed to find out 1) what discourses are related to gender and mathematics, 2) in what way these discourses are formulated and gain currency, and 3) how they have affected students in general. Common notions concerning mathematics may be summed up as follows: 1) Most of the students believe that gender difference in mathematical aptitude results because biologically men tend to be strong in mathematics and analytical skills while women tend to have better linguistic ability. This concept can help male students' studying to have a greater learning toward mathematics. 2) A large number of the students believe that male students' studying method is based on comprehension whereas female students' method is based on retention, and hence the former group tends to be better at applying their learning than the latter group. This notion seres to encourage male students and discourage female students from tackling difficult mathematical problems. 3) Many students believe that, although female students may surpass their male counterparts in middle school or the first year of high school, they will eventually fall behind by the 3rd year. Despite research which shows that these common beliefs are not grounded in scientific proof, high-school girls, who may be strong in mathematics, lose self-confidence and feel a sense of crisis. The mechanisms which produce and reinforce such concepts as those mentioned above can be summarized as follows: 1) Regarding the choice of majors and future career paths, parents show different attitudes toward sons and daughters, and this tends to influence high-school girls and hinders them from entering mathematics-related fields. 2) Teachers with value systems based on stereo-typed gender roles affect students a great deal, and give different advice according to gender of their students, for selecting their major fields - for instance, whether to study the natural sciences as opposed to humanities. 3) This study indicates that peer-group behavior, of either support or exclusion, also reinforces the process of internalizing notions of gender difference related to mathematical aptitude. 4) The gender-based notion that men are naturally more inclined to have better mathematical ability has caused male students to choose the natural science subjects and female students to turn to the humanities. The discourses discussed above, propagated in schools and homes, and in the mass media, are continually reinforced along with general gender inequalities in the society at large.

The following study has been conducted by carrying out the nutrition education program for preschool children and measuring the change in their food preference and nutritional knowledge. The 28 boys and 22 girls with the average height of $117.4{\pm}5.1cm$ and weight $21.8{\pm}3.5kg$ participated in the study. The favorite foods of the children were: meat (51.1%) being the highest, fruits (38.3%), carbohydrates (23.4%), while the least favored food was vegetables (75%). It indicated that 36.2% of the children were having unbalanced diets. The change in food preference after the implementation of the nutrition education program was the significant increase in preference in vegetables and fruits (p<0.01) and proteins such as meat, fish, eggs and beans (p<0.05). The differences in food preference among boys and girls were that the boys showed significant increase in vegetables and fruits (p<0.01) while there was a decrease in the simple sugar groups (p<0.01). Regarding girls, there were significant increases in vegetables and fruits as well as protein groups of meat, fish, eggs and beans (p<0.01). The changes in the nutritional knowledge of the preschool children after the implementation of the nutrition education program were scores for the fruits and vegetables group and carbohydrates group showed a significant increase while the scores for the oil and nuts group had decreased considerably. The average score on nutritional knowledge has significantly increased from 9.07 to 10.17 (p<0.01) and the score on the roles of the nutrients increased from 3.02 to 3.48 (p<0.05). The changes in eating habits of the children after the nutrition education were the answer for the change in eating habits of the children after the nutrition education was 'slight change' 61.4%. Also, the change in food preference was 'slight change' 61.4% and the improvement in nutrition education was 'slightly' 50%. According to the results of this study, it is evident that the change in eating habits and the acquisition of nutritional knowledge is very difficult, thus requiring consistent and prolonged education. Therefore, it seems to be best to include a more systematic and professional nutrition education program in preschool education. Also, the education for the parents should be implemented since the effect of education on children is greater when it is closely connected with the education at home.

이 연구의 목적은 개념도 연구법을 적용하여 초등과학영재 어머니들의 자녀 진로에 대한 인식을 구조화하는 것이다. 개념도 연구법은 참여자가 자유롭게 주제에 대해 말하고, 그 내용을 진술문으로 추출하여 직접 분류하는 과정을 거친다. 이 연구에 참여한 어머니들은 자녀가 초등학교 5, 6학년이며 과학영재교육대상자로 선발되었다. 다양한 영재 어머니들의 의견이 반영되도록 영재학급, 과학고 영재원, 대학부설 영재원 그룹의 어머니들을 따로 만나 연구를 진행하였다. 먼저 26명을 섭외하여 브레인스토밍을 통해 주제에 대해 이야기 하며 50개 진술문을 추출하였고 그 가운데 10명을 다시 만나 무선화한 진술문 카드를 각자 분류하도록 하였다. 분류결과는 비유사성행렬로 변환하여 SPSS 다차원 척도분석과 군집분석을 하여 개념도를 작성하였다. 그리고 총 140명의 어머니들로부터 리커트 5점으로 진술문에 대한 의견을 조사하였다. 연구 결과, 과학영재 어머니들이 갖고 있는 자녀 진로에 대한 인식은 총 6개의 군집과 50개의 진술문으로 이루어져 있으며 각각의 군집명은 '사교육, 성적, 진학에 대한 부담감', '영재교육원 및 학교의 진로교육에 대한 생각', '자녀 진로교육에 관한 부모역할', '가정에서 겪는 진로지도의 어려움', '진로지도를 위한 부모역량강화 요구', '사회적 지원요구'이다. 군집별 공감 정도 평균은 '사회적 지원요구'가 가장 높았으며 '가정에서 겪는 진로지도의 어려움'과 '사교육, 성적, 진학에 대한 부담감' 군집은 낮은 편이었다. 이 연구결과를 통해 논의하고자하는 시사점은 영재 어머니들이 자녀 진로를 인식할 때 진학, 사교육, 성적이 큰 부담으로 자리 잡고 있다는 점이다. 이러한 부담은 진로교육에 대한 부정적 염려로 이어지고 있으므로 우려스러운 부분이다. 또한, 어머니들은 가정에서 진로지도의 어려움을 겪고 있으며 이를 해결하고자 하는 요구가 높았다. 이를 위한 구체적인 지원 내용과 방법에 있어서는 개별화, 맞춤화된 방법과 문제해결능력 관련 부모역량을 강화하는 내용으로 이루어져야함을 시사한다. 또한 영재 진로지도를 위한 사회적 지원요구가 높으므로 이에 대한 적절한 지원방법에 대한 논의가 이루어져야 한다.
