의학교육은 학생들에 대한 교육과 평가만으로 구성되지 않는다. 학생들이 그러한 교육을 모두 잘 이수하고 졸업할 수 있도록 잘 지도해 주는 것까지를 포함한다. 의학교육에 있어 이러한 지도가 필요한 이유는 의대생들의 학습과 생활에 문제가 자주 발생하기 때문이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 2005년도에 본 의과대학에서 이루어진 총104건의 상담사례를 분석하여 그 문제와 대안을 제시하였다. 나타난 문제로는 불완전한 교육과 극단적 내부경쟁, 학생들의 집단 학습적 행동, 시간 관리 및 학습방법의 문제, 불안과 우울의 문제, 열등감의 문제, 자기개발과 자기실현에서의 불안, 삶의 다양한 문제들과 가치관 형성의 어려움(이성교제, 가족관계, 학교 내 대인관계 등) 등이었다. 이에 대한 해결방안으로 다음과 같은 다섯 가지가 제안 되었다. 즉 학생들에 대한 "의대에서 공부하는 방법" 교육, 새로운 의대 학습 문화의 창출지원, 전공의 선발에 있어 다면적 평가 시스템의 도입, 상담을 담당해 주시는 교수들과 멘토(mentor)의 필요, 가치관 지향적인 의학교육의 필요이다.

사회경제적 지위(혹은 위상) 개념이 심리학에서도 많이 사용되어 왔지만 많은 문제점들이 노정되어 본 연구에서는 이를 특정하고 이를 해결하는 방안을 모색하였다. 연구 결과, 이 지표로 사용되는 것으로는, 직업, 교육수준, 수입, 빈곤 수준, 부의 수준, 가족구조(가족 수), 사회적 통합 수준, 주택 소유 여부, 물질적 생활 조건, 가계소비단위당 수입, 경제적 어려움, 경제적 만족, 밀집도, 공적 지원수준 등이 있다. 이들 지표들 중 몇 개를 선택하여 측정한 후 지표들을 따로 따로 하나씩만 사용하는 경우도 있고, 이들 지표들을 통합적으로 사용하는 경우도 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 이들 문제를 해결하기 위해 첫째, 이 개념을 적용하지 않고 단순히 이 지표 한 두 개를 사용하려면 SES라는 개념을 사용하지 말아야 한다. 둘째, 이 개념을 적용하려면 이들 개별 지표들을 사용하는 것은 부적절하고, 통합된 지수 형태로 사용해야 할 것, 마지막으로, 우리 문화에서 이들 지표들 중 중요한 것을 선정하여 통합적 지표로 사용해야 할 것을 제안하였다.

Grit is a person's passion and perseverance that drive them to achieve long-term and meaningful goals. The purpose of this study was to identify practical resources that can affect single parents' grit. Using the fourth-year panel data from the Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey 2018 (KCYPS 2018), descriptive statistics were produced and a correlation analysis was conducted for 284 single parents. Hierarchical regression analysis was also performed to explore the demographic factors, personal resources(psychological, lifestyle/health), and family resources(family relationships/child, economic) that affect single parents' grit. First, the correlation analysis revealed that single parents' grit had a significant correlation with age, education status, life satisfaction, happiness, self-esteem, smartphone dependency, physical activity time, frequency of breakfast consumption, household size, parent's satisfaction with child's school achievement and school adjustment, subjective family economic status, and private education expenses. Second, the hierarchical regression analysis revealed that education status, self-esteem, employment status, smartphone dependency, physical activity time, household size, parent's satisfaction with child's school achievement, and subjective family economic status were significant factors affecting single parents' grit. Based on the research results, this study suggests directions for programs and policies to provide a stable environment for single-parent families to raise their children.

The study starts from the critical thought on why most of female-headed single-parent families are under poverty regardless of their hard working. The study is to explore the lives of low-income single-parent families as working poor and to develop comprehensive policies for them out of poverty and other social vulnerability, using the concept of social exclusion which has been broadly introduced in the field of social science. Specifically, the study aims to analyse the process of social exclusion of low-income single-parent households, by comparing the differential lives in the economic, social, political aspects among male-headed dual-parent household, female-headed single-parent household, and poor female-headed lone-parent household who is under the public poverty line. The study was based on the secondary data analysis. A total of 3182 samples(the first 2508, the second 235, and the third 439) were included. Using SAS 6.12, frequency, chi-square, means, and ANOVA were utilized for the statistical analysis. Results show that single mothers, on the whole, are vulnerable population in terms of employment, housing stability and income. Also, low-income households of single mothers are more negatively affected by the IMF economic crisis and carry more pessimism on their future. In comparison with male-headed households, single mothers have fewer support from social insurance as well as family resources and higher burdens of additional caring need for the old, the disabled, and the chronically ill. These findings identify the reality in which female-headed households with dependent children are exposed to the overall social vulnerability and thus are easily trapped into the social disadvantaged. finally, the study suggests the development of comprehensive policies and counter-measurements for low-income female-headed families to be the primary member in our society.

The purpose of this study is to explore further understanding of variables, besides father's alcoholism, which relates to psychosocial adjustment among ADAF(adult daughters of alcoholic fathers). This study examines the relationship between father's alcoholism, family functioning, parental attachment and the psychosocial adjustment among the ADAF. From a larger sample of 463 female college students, 160 ADAF and a matched group of non-ADAF were identified to participate in the study. This survey was conducted in Seoul and Gyungi-do area. Participants completed self-report questionnaires, "The Korean Version of Children of Alcoholics Screening Test", "Inventory of Parent and Peer Attachment", "Satisfaction With Life Scale", "Self-esteem", "Beck Depression Inventory" and "Family Environment Scale". Path analyses was used to test the research question. Findings indicated that father's alcoholism had no direct effect on both the psychosocial adjustment of the ADAF and the family functioning. But father's alcoholism was significantly related to parental attachment. Family functioning was significant predictor of attachment to parents as well as psychosocial adjustment. Finally family functioning is important cause for parental attachment and psychosocial adjustment, specifically self-esteem and life satisfaction outcomes only. Therefore parental attachment was function as a mediator in the relationship between family functioning and psychosocial adjustment. In conclusion, this study showed that father's alcoholism did not predict outcome. We need to reconsider the assumption that direct link exists between adult adjustment difficulties and the presence of father's alcoholism. Implications for clinical and theoretical work with ADAF are discussed.

Purpose : The system to refer terminally ill patients to palliative or hospice care which ultimately give them emotional, psychological, and social support hasn't been fully developed and organized yet in Korea. The controversies concerning the current referral system are being analyzed to present the improvements. Methods : The questionnaires were asked to be filled out by family members of the 76 patients by phone interview, who were referred from the Seoul National University Hospital between April, 2001 to March, 2002. They were referred to the 35 palliative and hospice care-giving institutes and hospitals which were given questionnaires by mail. Results : Of the 76 patient's family members, 47 family members accepted to answer the questionnaire. The first thing that influence to family to determine the referral of patient was solicitation of doctors or nurses (44%). And they were influenced by allowance for the other things such as convenience of patients (32%), convenience of caring family members (24%). In the course of determining of referred institutes, responders had considered at first their dwelling area, and then fame of institutes, the place which patent had wanted to spend last hours or which is suitable for patient's funeral service, and their financial condition. Thirty-eight the 47 responders answered that they had experienced difficulties in referral procedure. The worst among difficulties was unwanted discharge, and followings were lack of information about the referred institutes, concern about patient's suffering, resistance of patient and opposition of other family members, etc. Although they expressed dissatisfaction in referral procedure, most of them answered they had been satisfied with hospice care at referred institute after referral. Merits of referral which responders counted were patient's peace, caring family's comfort and reduced cost in order. Of the 35 referred institutes, 24 institutes' staffs responded mail questionnaires and sent to us in return. Except one responder, the rest approved the referral system and thought that referred patients had been satisfied with their hospice care. And they claimed that systemic support of the government is definitely necessary. The most difficult thing which responders experienced in care of referred patients was lack of information about patients. Besides, there were patient's financial problems, lack of understanding about their institutes of patients or family, and inconvenience of terminal cancer patient's pain control. Conclusion : The development and support of the organized referral system is needed to alleviate the troubles which patients, family members, and palliative or hospice institutes and hospitals have to face through the procedure of the referral.
