The purpose of this study is to develop the group program model for reinforcing family relations of single-mother families as one approach to family welfare service. As previous research findings about problems of single parent families were reviewed and the framework for the program development was identified, a 6 sessions group program was planned and applied to 9 single-mother families from June 2nd to July 7th. Program evaluation questionnaire, Scales measuring powerlessness and FACESIII for family relations, social support network tool, and group process recording were used for the evaluation of this program. The participants evaluated this program as very supportive, useful, and educational. The powerlessness was reduced in a statistically meaningful way before and after the program and the result was found to be maintained for 4 months in the follow-up session. The family relations according to FACES III were mostly balanced and didn't show some significant change after the termination of this program. The single mothers had little concrete supports from others, if any, had some from relatives. They rather had to give supports for the other family members and reciprocally gave and took emotional or informational supports with friends or neighbors. Based on these results, the 2 step model consisted of brief group program and long term support group was developed and the practical methods were suggested for the single-mother families with low income.

Purpose: This study aimed to explore the effects of a community-based first and third Intergenerational Exchange Program (IGEP) on older adults' health-related quality of life (HRQoL), loneliness, depression, and walking speed, and on 4~5-year-old preschool children's learning-related social skills. Methods: This study employed a non-equivalent control group pre-post-test design. The experimental group included 42 older adults and 42 children who participated in the IGEP for 8 weeks, and the control group included 39 older adults. The experimental group participated in the IGEP once a week for 8 weeks. It comprised a traditional play program based on the intergroup contact theory. Results: Compared to the control group, there was a significant increase in scores on the HRQoL-Visual analogue scale (VAS) and a decrease in loneliness and depression in older adults in the experimental group (p<.05). Children who participated in the IGEP showed an improvement in their learning-related social skills (p<.001). Conclusion: These results confirm that the IGEP is an effective intervention to improve HRQoL-VAS, loneliness, and depression among older adults and learning-related social skills among preschool children in the community.

목적 : 본 연구는 형제그룹 감각통합치료가 전반적 발달장애 아동의 사회적 상호작용에 미치는 효과에 대해서 알아보고자 한다. 연구방법 : 전반적 발달장애 진단을 받은 만 7~8세 아동 2명을 대상으로 2011년 7월부터 9월까지 총 8주간 형제그룹 감각통합치료를 실시하였다. 개별실험연구방법(single subject research design) 중 A-B-A' 설계를 사용하였으며, 기초선 A 3회기, 중재기 B 16회기, 기초선 A' 3회기로 총 22회기를 적용하였다. 사회적 상호작용의 질은 기초선 A와 A'기간에 ESI(Evaluation Social Interaction)를 통하여 측정하였다. 사회적 상호작용의 빈도는 기초선 기간에는 중재가 없는 상태에서 측정하였으며, 중재기간에는 매 중재 후 10분간의 자유놀이를 비디오로 촬영하여 등간기록법(interval recording)을 통해 측정하였다. 결과 : 대상 아동 모두에게서 중재 후 사회적 상호작용의 질은 통계적으로 유의한 향상을 보였다. 또한 매 회기 중재 후 실시한 자유놀이에서 대상 아동 모두 기초선 A의 평균과 2표준편차 밴드 이상인 값들이 두 개 이상 연속으로 나타나 사회적 상호작용의 빈도에서도 통계적으로 유의한 변화가 나타났다. 결론 : 형제그룹 감각통합치료가 전반적 발달장애 아동의 사회적 상호작용에 긍정적인 효과가 있음을 확인하였다. 따라서 임상에서 전반적 발달장애 아동에게 사회적 상호작용 향상을 위한 치료방법으로써 형제그룹 감각통합치료를 효과적으로 적용할 수 있을 것이다.

Purpose - A lot of preceeding studies have focused on the pains that might be felt in spending money, that is an important role in getting psychological safety. Money and social resources can be all for consumers, and they are likely to form a substituting relationship with one another. Being motivated by the idea that spending money for others can come with joy if one's objective is accomplished by social support, this paper aimed to explore the mediating role of the perceived money importance and gratitude in the relationship between social support and pleasure in spending for other-gift. Research Design, Data, and Methodology - In this empirical study, the experimental group is expected to receive social support while the control group is composed of those who are usually indulged in reminiscences of their sweethearts. From the college students, 160 experiment participants were selected and 80 participants of them were assigned to control group as well as to experimental group respectively at random. Empirical study for each of the two groups was performed respectively by means of questionnaire survey. Experimental group data and control group data were combined together to be used for testing hypotheses. Linear structural equation model in Amos was used to verify the hypotheses, and Bootstrap was also used to examine whether there were the mediating roles of the perceived money importance and gratitude or not. Results - From the empirical study, following conclusions could be drawn: First, social support of others makes one perceive the importance of money less; Second, social support of others makes one perceive gratitude to others; Third, less perceived importance of money and gratitude to others can make one feel pleasure in spending for other-gift; and Fourth, less perceived importance of money and gratitude to others can partially mediate the effect of social support from others on the pleasure in spending for other-gift. Conclusions - The outcomes of this study might offer theoretic and managerial implications as follow: Even though many hitherto studies have asserted that spending money usually comes with pains, this study discovered that social support might reduce perceived the importance of money but make others feel gratitude and, thus, one would feel joy in spending money to buy gift for others, and made a contribution to the progress of the theory of pleasure in spending for other-gift. This paper also made contributions toward the development of emotion marketing theory by showing that the effect of social support on the pleasure in spending for other-gift could be partially mediated by the perceived the importance of money and gratitude to others. Based on the above conclusions, it may be affirmed that marketers should help consumers perceive the importance of money less, and help feel gratitude to others by pointing up the support of others to consumers in an attempt to accelerate spending for other-gift.
