The purpose of this research was to observe the children's perception for divorce remarriage and resilience according to their gender and school grades so that the relation between children's resilience and the perception for parents' divorce and remarriage could be established theoretically, practically and educationally. The subjects were 537 elementary school students who were in 4, 5, 6 grades, The data was collected by a self-administered socio-demographics and children's perceptions for divorce remarriage and resilience. The data from this research were analyzed by using SAS program. The results were as following: 1. The female students had the positive perceptions about divorce even if there was no statistical significant differences in the perception between male and female students, and the more optimistic ideas towards divorce also apply to the higher grade students rather than the lower grade ones. 2. The female students showed more positive perceptions for remarriage more than the male did. There was no statistical significant difference in the general idea about remarriage according to the school grades, but in terms of the absence of children and the financial status, the statistical significant differences existed. 3. The students' resilience was higher in the females rather than in the males and became lower with the grade. 4. There were no relations between divorce remarriage and children's resilience degrees.

This study examined, through a qualitative approach, the viewpoints and beliefs toward divorce held by people who have experienced a divorce. In-depth interviews with divorced individuals (two males and twelve females) were conducted for this study. The findings of the study are summarized as follows. First, the participants of the study had a tendency to withdraw. In other words, they felt powerless and lonely, and they think of themselves as a failure. Second, they clearly recognized the double standard in society toward divorce. They strongly felt that people who had shown tolerant attitudes toward divorce when it was a distant phenomenon suddenly took a different attitude when a divorce occurred to a relative. The fact that openly stated viewpoints toward divorce can be significantly different than unstated attitudes made the participants' lives still harder by adding another burden to the difficulties they already faced from the divorce. As a result, they would rather hide the fact that they were divorced than be open about it with other people. Aside from highly significant others, they attempted to conceal their divorce from others whenever possible. Third, as people who have already experienced divorce, they seem to take a more careful attitude toward divorce than those who have not experienced a divorce. The participants pointed to the social responsibilities to promote public understanding and a sense of value about divorce, and they hoped that our society would communicate better about the difficulties of getting divorced from the perspective of those who have experienced divorce. The participants believed this would ultimately contribute to preventing divorce among others. This study is expected to expand understanding toward the phenomenon of divorce in Korean society, and further, to provide basic information for a clearer understanding of the current state of the Korean family.

This study investigated the effects of children's gender, parental divorce, and children's perception of parenting behaviors on children's behavior problems. The subjects were 80 children in divorced families(46boys and 34girls) and 74 children in non-divorced families (37boys and 37girls). They completed questionnaire assessing perception of parenting behaviors and their teacher rated K-CBCL(withdrawal, depression/anxiety, aggression). Results were as follows. First, children in non-divorced families perceived their parenting behavior more positively. Second, boys had more behavior problems such as depression/anxiety and aggression than girls. Third, children in divorced families had more behavior problems such as withdrawal, depression/anxiety, and aggression than children in non-divorced families. Fourth, children's withdrawal was affected by parental divorce and children's perception of parenting behaviors, and children's depression/ anxiety and aggression were affected by parental divorce and children's gender.

The present study examined the effects of parent-education administered during divorce procedure on the perception of parent-education programs. The subjects were 60 couples who were in divorce procedure at the Seoul Family Court and had children under 20 Subjects were divided into three groups of 20 couples each: a control group, and experimental group 1 and experimental group 2 that were homogeneous in demographical and legal backgrounds. Experimental group 1 was shown pamphlets and videos on the role of divorced parents, and experimental group 2 was shown pamphlets and videos on the role of divorced parents as well as given explanations about the contents of the pamphlets and videos. No treatment was applied to the control group. According to the results of the experiment, the two experimental groups showed improvement in their perception of the necessity for parent-education programs. Demand for the number of sessions and hours, and the effect was higher in experimental group 2 than in experimental group 1. With regard to the necessity of parent-education programs, experimental group 2 was positive particularly to mandatory injunction, the payment of education fees and expectation of helpfulness. All three groups expected that parent-education programs would be helpful.

Although the prevalence of divorce in South Korea has greatly increased since late 1990s, the impact of divorce on the parents of adult children in Korean families has received very little attention. This is particularly unfortunate because of the emphasis in Korean culture on family cohesion and obligations. To address these issues, we explored in our study the well-being of the parents of divorced adult children as well as intergenerational relationships among the members of Korean families. Total 113 parents participated (39 males and 74 females), age ranged from 46 to 65. Of the total participants surveyed, 29% were parents of divorced children (N=33), with the remainder having children in intact marriages (N=80). The measures examined four areas: (1) demographics, (2) parental psychological well-being, (3) intergeneration relationships, and (3) parental perception of their adult child's marital experience. A series of MANOVA and hierarchical regression analyses were conducted. Our findings indicate important differences between parents of divorced children and parents of non-divorced children on overall well-being, interpersonal relationships, and parental perception, which is consistent with previous studies. Parents of divorced children in this study also reported lower level of intergenerational relationships compared to parents of nondivorced children. Parent-grandchild relationships seem to be particularly important for parental well-being. In addition, we found an unexpected association between parents and their relationship with their former children inlaws. More detailed discussion was discussed.

본 연구는 이혼한 부부들이 현실적으로 이혼 후 대안의 하나로 고려해보거나 혹은 실행하는 재결합에 대하여 사이버상에서 이루어지는 이혼 후 재결합과 관련된 논의의 내용을 살펴보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 이혼 후 재결합과 관련된 인터넷 웹사이트에서 이혼 후 재결합을 고민 중인 다양한 일곱 가지 사례들을 택하여 각각의 사례들에 대해 사이버공동체 성원들이 재결합을 지지 혹은 반대하는 의견을 중심으로 이혼 후 재결합에 대한 인식을 살펴보았다. 그 결과 사이버공동체 성원들은 다양한 이유에서 이혼 후 재결합에 대해 지지하였다. 즉, 재결합에 대한 준비나 전배우자의 이혼 후 이성관계의 포용, 이혼이유의 성찰과 전배우자의 약점을 감싸주려는 노력이 전제되었을 때 그리고 혼인 신고 없이 재결합을 해보는 것, 자녀를 위해서는 재혼보다 재결합이 나을 것이라는 생각, 전배우자와의 이혼 후 성적 관계가 이루어진 경우 이혼 후 재결합을 지지하며 긍정적으로 인식하였다. 반면에 사이버공동체 성원들이 이혼 후 재결합에 대해 부정적으로 인식하며 반대하는 이유도 있었다. 즉, 시간이 갈수록 재결합의지가 약화될 것이라는 예측과 이혼한 전배우자에 대한 용서가 어려운 점, 전배우자의 무반성적이고 믿을 수 없는 태도, 외도로 인한 이혼의 경우 전배우자의 외도 재발의 우려, 재결합에 대한 전배우자의 진정성 결여, 성급한 재결합 결정으로 인한 후유증에 대한 염려, 이전의 갈등 해결 이 선행되지 않은 재결합으로 인한 재이혼의 문제, 전배우자의 단점 불변에 대한 생각 등으로 이혼 후 재결합에 대해 부정적으로 인식하였다. 아직 재결합을 하지 않고 재결합을 고민 중인 사례들에 대해 사이버공동체 성원들의 찬반 의견과 조언이 다양했던 반면, 자녀를 위해 이미 재결합을 결정한 사례에 대해서는 대부분의 사이버공동체 성원들은 재결합을 지지하며 긍정적으로 인식하였다. 이러한 연구의 결과는 이혼 후 재결합에 대한 학문적 논의와 사회적 관심이 미흡한 상황에서 이혼증가로 익명성이 보장된 사이버공간상에서 이혼 후 재결합을 둘러싼 논의들이 활발히 이루어지고 있음을 보여주며 아울러 이혼 후 재결합에 대한 사이버공동체 참여자들의 인식을 통해 추후로 이혼 후 재결합의 성패요인에 대한 학문적, 실천적 논의를 확장시켜 가는데 일조할 수 있을 것이다.

이 연구는 부부의 상호의존성을 고려하여 자기-상대방 상호의존 모형(the Actor-Partner Interdependence Model)으로 문화적 도전과 경제적 곤란이 다문화부부의 이혼의사에 미치는 자기효과와 상대방효과를 조사하고, 이 두 효과의 조합을 비율로 측정하여 양자관계의 패턴을 살펴보았다. 여성결혼이민자 부부표본 415쌍(n=830)의 자료로 APIM에 대한 경로분석을 실시한 결과, 한국인 남편의 문화적 도전에 대한 높은 인식은 자신과 배우자의 이혼의사에 미치는 자기효과와 상대방효과가 유의했고, 결혼이민자인 부인의 그런 인식은 자신의 이혼의사에 기여하는 자기효과만 유의했다. 반면 남편의 경제적 곤란 인식은 자신과 부인의 이혼의사에 미치는 효과가 미미했고, 여성결혼이민자에게 지각된 경제적 곤란은 자신과 배우자의 이혼의사에 미치는 자기효과와 상대방효과가 유의했다. 붓스트랩을 이용하여 APIM 효과들의 관계패턴을 검정한 결과, 남편의 이혼의사는 문화적 도전의 자기중심패턴이, 그리고 부인의 경우는 커플패턴이 지지되었다. 경제적 곤란은 효과크기의 비교로 남편과 부인의 이혼의사가 각각 상대방중심패턴과 자기중심패턴에 가까움을 유추할 수 있었다. 이 결과들은 한국인 남편이 배우자와의 문화차를 포용할 수 있는 문화적 역량을 키우고 여성결혼이민자가 경제적 자립에 대해 희망을 가질 수 있도록 이들과 가족의 경제적 역량을 강화하는 것이 부부의 화합과 다문화가족의 해체방지에 기여할 수 있음을 시사하여 끝으로 이를 논의하였다.

With the increase of single-parent families in the Korean society, the perception of the function and structure of the family is changing. Thus, a public transition toward embracing single-parent families as another form of family is necessary. This study focuses on the families of divorced female single-parents using Walsh's family resilience framework with a strengths-based perspective. It aims to provide the basic data necessary for deducing policy-related and practical ways of supporting the families and for developing programs that help divorced female single-parent families maintain and reinforce resilience. Qualitative analysis was used as the research method. A preceding literature review was also carried out to collect data. The major findings of this study include the following: First, it was found that the average age of divorce is around 30-40, with children of school age. The mothers' level of education was relatively high, ranging from high school graduates to graduate school students. On Rothwell and Cohen's happiness scale, their objective level of happiness was higher (74.1) than that of the average Korean (64). Second, it was found they were very careful to avoid violence in everyday life as an after-effect of domestic violence, which was the major cause of their divorce. Third, their positive and optimistic attitudes about life even in adversity can be interpreted as Walsh's belief systems taking a more important role among other characteristics of family resilience.

This study focuses on the differences in family values, which is a cause of family dissolution and conflicts of marriage immigrant women. This study was conducted on 441 women in Vietnam. It was done to explore their family values. Specifically, the following were examined: the overall family values and martial status of Vietnamese women; differences in their family values by region (northern, central, southern). The survey questionnaire consists of the following content: 'family perception'; 'gender-role values'; 'elderly parent support value'. The characteristics of family values of Vietnamese women are as follows. First, the scope of family perceived by them was relatively narrow. In particular, most of them didn't perceive the parents of a spouse as a familymember. Second, in terms of gender-roles, they perceived men and women as equal and didn't have strong perception of traditional gender roles. Third, they felt strongly about supporting elderly parents. The perception of supporting elderly parents is based on equal gender roles, instead of the paternalistic approach. They preferred financial support to living with parents. There were also differences in family values by region. Also, their values seemed to be the opposite of the ones well-known by region. In addition, their values were changing amid economic growth and modernization. Residents in Can Tho in the south - known to have open-minded Southeast Asian values - had the most patrilineal, traditional values with strong perception towards supporting elderly parents. Residents in Hanoi in the north - known to have heavy influence of Confucian culture - had non-traditional values with positive attitude towards liberal sex culture, divorce, and remarriage. Residents in Da Nang, a central region, had a mixture of northern and southern characteristics in terms of family values.

본 연구는 아동의 성장과정에 있어 매우 중요한 환경인 학교현장에서 교사들이 한부모가족 아동들에 대해 갖고 있는 인식과 태도를 알아보고, 이에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 분석해 봄으로써 한부모가족 아동들이 보다 당당하게 학교생활을 할 수 있게 하는 방안을 모색하기 위한 기초 자료를 제공하는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 2002학년 여름방학동안 서울, 경기도, 전라도, 경상도 등 전국에서 이루어지는 교사 연수회에 참석한 초등학교 교사를 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 교사의 지위나 연령, 지역(대도시, 중소도시, 도시외 지역) 등을 고려하여 유의표집(purposive sampling)한 결과 총 776부가 회수되었으며, 이를 SAS 6.12로 빈도분석, 평균, 교차분석(Chi-Square), t-test, 일원분산분석(oneway-ANOVA), 중다회귀분석(Multiple Regression)하였다. 연구결과, 대부분의 교사들은 한부모가족 아동이 증가하고 있다는 것을 교육현장에서 느끼고 있었으나, 아동의 심리상황에 대해서는 잘못 이해하고 있는 부분이 많은 것으로 나타났다. 교사의 한부모가족 아동에 대한 부정적인 인식에 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 교사의 사회인구학적 특성, 경험적 요인, 아동의 학교생활 수행정도 뿐만 아니라 교사 자신의 한부모가족에 대한 정형화된 인식, 가족주의 및 이혼에 대한 가치관 등이 작용하는 것으로 나타났다. 교사들의 의식이나 태도는 성장기 아동들의 자신감과 자존감 형성에 상당히 커다란 영향을 줄 것으로 예상되는 바, 이에 대한 대책이 사회적 의식 전환, 교육체계 및 환경의 변화, 교사 교육프로그램 개발, 학교사회사업 및 상담교사 배치, 한부모가족의 임파워먼트 등에서 제시되었다.
