This study examined the effects of children's perceived stress of economic strain, resulting family conflict, and stress coping strategies on their adjustment. Dimensions of children's adjustment studied in this research were problem behaviors (aggression, delinquency, withdrawal and anxiety depression) and school adjustment. Interaction effects between children's stress variables and coping strategies on the adjustment were also explored. 1,115 fifth to eighth graders from Chungbuk regions participated in self-administered structured questionnaires. Data were processed with SPSS PC 10.0 statistical package. Results were: First, the level of children's problem behaviors and school adjustment indicated differences according to their academic achievement, gender, and their age. Middle schoolers with rather low grade average reported higher level of aggression, delinquency, withdrawal and that of depression/anxiety. Boys tended to be more prone to external problems while girls to internal problems. Second, stresses originated from children's perceived economic strain and family conflicts showed consistent meaningful explanatory power on adjustment. Boys' adjustment was influenced by stress from economic strain and family conflict while girls by family conflict and academic achievements. The support seeking coping strategy among others was the most popularly employed coping strategy of children followed by aggressive coping strategy. In boys' cases, interaction effects of stress and coping strategies were significant in all of the adjustment variables, the more frequent the use of support seeking coping strategies, the lower the problem behavior, while interaction effect of family conflict stress and support seeking coping strategies played the opposite significant role in girls' cases. Further research efforts are required. Research results suggest; when developing a program facilitating children's adjustment, training on stress coping strategies should be considered as a potent new arena of interest.

본 논문에서는 TCP 소켓을 이용해서 스마트폰의 GPS 및 3G/4G, WiFi 기능으로 위치전송을 통한 미아, 치매노인 찾기 및 약속잡기 App에 관해 제안한다. 이 App은 스마트폰 등 정보기기의 발달로 인한 가족 간의 대화 단절, 실종 및 비정상적이고 비윤리적인 사회문제를 해결하는데 이의를 둔다. App을 통해 온 가족을 하나의 그룹으로 묶어 그룹 간에 일정을 공유할 수 있고, 채팅 기능을 통해 가족의 대화를 유도해 효율적인 의사소통을 가능하게 한다. 또한 GPS 기능을 통해 위치정보를 공유하고 한 자리에 모이기 힘든 현대 가족에게 쉽게 가족 간에 약속장소를 정할 수 있으며, 유사시에는 위젯을 통해 자신의 위치를 가족들에게 신속히 문자메시지로 보내 브라우저로 위치를 확인할 수 있게 된다.

본 논문은 인터넷 기반의 유료 원격진료시스템에서 가족간의 유전성에 관련된 내용을 추출하여 관리하는 알고리즘을 제시하여 가족간 정보공유를 통한 효율적인 진단을 위한 병력기록관리에 대한 논문으로서, 환자의 일시적인 상황만 보고서 진단을 행하고 기본적인 검사와 치료를 행함으로서 오진의 확률이 빈번하며. 치료시간과 진료비 청구가 막대하게 지출될 수 가 있었으며, 급기야는 환자의 위급한 상황에 이르러 생명까지 앗아가는 경우가 발생할 것이다. 즉, 이러한 문제점을 최대한 줄이기 위한 방법이 바로 가족 구성간의 진료자료를 공유하여, 가족간의 체질과 환경을 이해하고 가족 중 비슷한 병을 앓았을 경우는 그 치료효과를 빠르게 가져올 수 있으며, 본 논문에서는 이런 문제해결을 위한 병력기록관리 데이터베이스에서의 알고리즘과 가족간 진료자료 공유 시뮬레이션 테이블을 통해서 해결점을 제시하고 있다.

The purpose of this paper is to classify and compare 21 OECD countries in regard to the level of support in parents' childcare and work. Several meaningful conclusions were suggested. First, examining the level of support in parents' childcare and work, 21 OECD countries can be classified into clusters different from the mainstream welfare state typology. Second, the level of parents' childcare and work support was high in socio-democratic countries such as Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden. Third, the level of parents' childcare right support is not necessarily positively related to that of parents' work in the labor market. As we have seen in the cases of France and Austria, although both countries have relatively high level of parents' childcare and work support, the level of work support in the labor market is low. These results have important implications for Korean family policy in that Korean society has to support both the parents' childcare right and the work right in the labor market.
