본 연구는 청소년 자녀를 둔 가정에서 부부가 지각하는 가족체계 유형에 따라 부부간 갈등과 대천방안이 어떠한가를 알아보는 데 그 목적이 있다. 서울시와 근교에 거주하는 532쌍에 부부를 대상으로 조사한결과 부부 양반이 지각한 가족응집성과 가족적응성은 높은 편이고 부인이 남편보다 가족응집성을 더 높게 지각한다. 가족체계 유형은 HH가족이 47.9%, LL가족이 35.1% 이며, 교육수준, 직업, 결혼기간, 종교일치여부 등에 따라 차이를 보인다. 부인이 남편에 비해 갈등정도가 더 높고 신앙에 의지, 외부도움 요청, 감정표출, 회피 등 의 대처방안을 더 많이 사용한다. 가족의 응집성 및 적응성이 높을수록 부부 양방에서 부부간 갈등정도가 낮고 이성적 대처방안을 많이 사용하며 행동표출, 회피 등의 대처방안은 적게 사용한다. 따라서 가족의 응집성과 적응성이 부부 공통적으로 부부간 갈등정도 및 이성적 대처, 행동표출, 회피등의 대처방안과 선형적 관계를 보인다. 또한 가족의 응집성은 부부 공통적으로 감정표출의 대처방안과도 선형적 관계를 보인다. 가족체계 유형중 HH가족과 LL가족에서 역시 부부간 갈등정도와 대처방안 사용이 각각 차이를 보인다.

This study aimed to examine the association between material hardship and alcohol use among low-income households in Korea, with particular attention to whether the association was mediated by family conflict and self-esteem. Using a nationally representative sample of 960 low-income households, this study conducted a path analysis to test a structural model liking material hardship to alcohol use through family conflict and self-esteem. The significance of indirect paths was tested by a Sobel test. This study found that experiencing material hardship was directly associated with low levels of coping skills for family conflict and low levels of self-esteem, but not with alcohol use. However, material hardship was indirectly associated with alcohol use through low levels of coping skills for family conflict as well as low levels of self-esteem. The findings of this study suggest that experiencing material hardship among low-income households would be a socio-structural stressor for alcohol use, particularly in that it increases secondary role and intra-psychic strains. Implications to address material hardship and alcohol use among low-income households were discussed.

This study aims to explore the longitudinal reciprocal relationship between family conflict and depression level of household head. Using the Korean Welfare Panel study (KOWEPS) of 2006-2009, the study applied multiple regression analysis and autoregressive cross-lagged model to test the hypothesis. Results of multiple regression analysis indicate that single direction of the impact of family conflict on a head of household's levels of depression and the vise versa were statistically significant. That is, higher level of family conflict in 2006 caused an increased levels of depression of household head in 2009, controlling gender, age and depression level in 2006. Also, the higher level of depression of household head in 2006 increased the level of family conflict in 2009 fixed with same control variables. The autoregressive and cross-lagged coefficients of family conflict and a head of household's levels of depression were statistically significant during the 4 years. The findings support the family system theory, indicating that there are reciprocal causal relationships between the whole family conflict and individual depression level. The strategies of social welfare practice and policy should thus aim to decrease individual's levels of depression and improve positive family function simultaneously to break the vicious circle.

The purpose of this study was to prepare basic data to set the support direction for low-income households in a socioeconomic crisis situation. The study examined the effect of socioeconomic deprivation experience on the longitudinal changes in family conflict and family relationship satisfaction of low-income households. Using five-year data from the 10th to 14th sessions of the Korean Welfare Panel, we examined the longitudinal changes in family conflict and family relationship satisfaction, and the effect of socioeconomic deprivation experience from the reponses of 803 low-income households. We found that the family conflict of low-income households decreased to a weak level with the change of time, and the rate of change in family relationship satisfaction was not meaningful. In the case of families who experienced early socioeconomic deprivation, their initial value of family conflict was higher than that of inexperienced households, and the rate of change was not significant. The results of this study show that when low-income households experience socioeconomic deprivation, they feel psychological pressure and an increase in family anxiety, resulting in high family conflict and low family relationship satisfaction. On the basis of the study results, we recommend extending economic and social assistance to low-income households in the current socioeconomic crisis. The state is also encouraged to help families manage conflicts on their own and resolve problems.

This study examined the interactive effects between social service use and economic hardship on the family conflicts among low-income families. We analyzed data from about 2,000 low-income families who participated in both the first and the second waves of the Korean Welfare Panel Study using a hierarchical logistic regression model. The main results are as follows. First, take-up rates of social services among low-income families were very low. Second, among the low-income families who did not use any social service, families who experienced more economic hardship were more likely to experience family conflicts. Third, the higher levels of economic hardship increased the positive effects of social service of reducing family conflicts. These findings suggest that the resource for the social services be concentrated on the low-income families who tend to experience more economic hardship and thereby family conflicts and that comprehensive social services be provided in the programs which aim to promote family relationships.

The present study aims at investigating conflict-raising factors generable for or during a familial travel in our country, with an outlook that understanding of such conflict raisers in an analytic manner be utilized as the basic data for research on travel behaviors. More specifically, key focus in this study was made on the aspect of tourism science, to wit, how sort of conflict inducers existent between a decision maker of a family and its constituents during outdoor travel of that family vary with familial life-cycle in terms of the tourist behavior theory. Such research attempts are likely, firstly, to offer some clues to invigorate inter-communicability among familial stakeholders in determining the travel intention. Secondly, such attempts also expectedly provide better trustability among family members affordable from converged opinions by familial stakeholders. Thirdly, the predictive recognition of factors inducing familial conflicts in a detailed manner is deemed to lead to reduced trial and error in determining decisions among family members.

This empirical research mainly investigates the relationship between work-family conflict and organizational performance. Three key variables apply for the empirical research; work-family conflict, organizational performance, and family-friendly HR practices. A total of 230 questionnaires is collected from mid-sized companies for hypothesis testing. The empirical analysis shows that work-life balance has a great importance on workers' job satisfaction and intention to leave. The family-friendly HR practices play a moderating role between work-family conflict and organizational performance. The findings support the fact that achieving work-life balance enhances organizational performance and using family-friendly HR practices is an ideal for balancing between work- and family life.
