  • 본 연구의 목적은 1930~1989년간에 걸쳐 타임잡지의 자동차광고에서 성에 관련된 의복을 중심으로 하여 여성역할의 변화를 알아보고자 하였다. 광고내용 분석은 과거 60년을 세시기로 나눌 수 있었는데 1930~1959년간은 여성에게서 가정주부 어머니, 여성적인 외모를 중시하는 전통적 여성관을 강조하였고, 1960~179년간은 계속해서 이러한 전통적 여성활동을 중요시 하면서도 자동차광고에서 여성의복이 다양하게 나타나서 여성역할이 다양하게 변화함을 보여주고 있다. 1980~1989년간의 경향은 사람모델을 덜 쓰고 자동차자체를 묘사함으로써 지금까지 자동차광고가 남성중심의 소비에서 여성소비자를 포함시키고 있음을 보여주고 있다. 본 연구의 결과를 바탕으로 앞으로의 연구문제점들이 제기되었다.

  • The objective of this study was to examine the mediating effects of school adjustment on the relationship between social capital and self-reliance of adolescents in out-of-home care(institutional care, foster care, and group homes). For this study, a total of 358 middle and high school students(13 to 19 years) were recruited among adolescents in care nationwide. Collected data were analyzed by using the structural equation modeling analysis. A bootstrapping method was utilized to examine the mediating effects. The results showed that social capital of the adolescents in out-of-home care was not directly related to self-reliance. However, complete mediation was found through school adjustment in the relationship between social capital and self-reliance. This indicates that social capital of the adolescents in care was significantly related to self-reliance only through school adjustment. Based on the results, policy and practice implications for increasing the levels of social capital, school adjustment, and self-reliance of adolescents in care were discussed.
