Increasing rate of late or deferred marriage in our society may have been inferred from alleged contribution of media use on people's idealistic expectations about marriage. This study examined the relationship between Korean-Chinese romance drama viewing and various sub-concepts of idealistic fantasy about marriage. Results from survey analysis indicate that although romance drama viewing has a positive association with life satisfaction, it was positively associated with various aspects of idealistic marriage fantasy (i.e., less materialism in marriage, more belief in love at first sight, and more unrealistic expectations on marriage). Further, differential cultivation effects of Korea and Chinese romance dramas were discussed.

In this paper I propose a simple optimal solution seeking algorithm to a stable marriage problem. The proposed algorithm firstly constructs an $n{\times}n$ matrix of the sum of each gender's preference of the other gender $p_{ij}$. It then selects the minimum sum preference $_{min}p_{ij}$ in the constructed matrix and deletes its corresponding row i and column j. This process is repeated until $i=0{\cap}j=0$, after which the algorithm compares initially or last chosen $_{min}p_{ij}$ its alternatives to finally determine one that yields the maximum marginal increase in preference. When applied to 7 stable marriage problems, the proposed algorithm has improved on initial solutions of existing algorithms.

Most of the researches on the view of marriage from 1970s until now have merely been the status survey to get a glimpse of thoughts on the marriage of the time. It is true that the recognitions of marriage in the recent days, especially those of the youth are going through a great deal of changes. However, it is also recognized that although westernized views on marriage recently are flooding in, still the traditional perspectives are firmly rooted underneath. Therefore, this study intended to predict the potential conflicts from diversified marital perspectives of the youth in the contemporary society applying the Korean views on marriage as an effort to develop views on marriage in scientific way, analyze the psychological problems before and after marriage, and pursue successful marriage to form a stable and desirable family. As for the method, questions were selected by 275 university students and the validity and reliability of marriage views by 1,283 married couples were examined. As a result, the following conclusions were made. The scale for Korean marriage values were summarized to six factors - 'traditional marriage', 'successful marriage', 'irrationality of marriage', 'necessity of marriage', 'cohabitation', and 'divorce and remarriage', showing high correlation with the existing scales, and the reliability coefficient of each subscale indicated as comparatively reliable with the value of Cronbach α=.88 at Cronbach α=.63.

본 프로그램은 현대사회에서 급증하는 부부간의 부적응에 미연에 예방한다는 취지에 따라 개인의 성장 및 부부간 상호이해증진과 공동체의식향상을 통해 부부 자체의 문제해결능력을 강화시키는 것을 목적으로 하고 있다. 프로그램의 구성을 위해서는 부부교육 프로그램의 사회적 기여도를 고려해서 한국 사회의 위기집단이 누구인지를 파악한후 그들에게 필요한 구체적 도움을 살펴보았으며, 이를 통해 교육목표를 설정하였다. 교육방법은 실제경험을 함께 나눔로써 상호교육효과를 이룰 수 있는 소규모집단 (약 3~5쌍) 교육을 실시하였으며, 교육대상은 중산층의 결혼초기(결혼 5년이내) 부부들로 하였다. 교육내용은 교육목표에 따라 논리적이고 체계적인 연계성을 갖도록 하였다. 구체적으로 부부의 애정 증진, 결혼생활에 대한 부부 각자의 이해차이와 문제 접근 및 해결방식의 차이 지각, 부부간의 효과적인 문제해결 방식으로서의 부부의 상호교류 방식을 파악한 후 수정해보며, 그리고 부부의 문제해결 방식에 대한 조언과 평가를 통해 끊임없는 부부간의 성장을 유도하였다.

장애인들도 이성에 대한 감정을 표현하고, 사랑을 하고 성취할 권리가 있다. 이는 인간으로서 추구할 당연한 권리이다. 그러나 결혼과 자녀의 출산 문제에 있어서는 여전히 커다란 장벽에 부닥치게 된다. 가족과 사회에서 체계적인 도움을 줄 수 있다면 그다지 어려운 문제가 아닐 수 있다.

본 연구의 목적은 건강한 결혼생활을 예견할 수 있는 사회인구학적 변인 및 심리적 변인들을 규명하여 부부의 행복유지 및 증진에 방향을 제시하고자 함에 있다. 우리나라 대도시에 거주하는 부부 550쌍을 대상으로 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1) 결혼 유형을 건강한 결혼, 형식적 결혼, 유약한 결혼, 상황적 결혼으로 구분하여 조사한바, 도시부부의 52%가 건강한 결혼 즉 순기능 결혼 범주에 속하고 48%가 정도의 차이는 있지만 역기능 결혼의 범주에 속하였다. 2) 남편들의 결혼관계 건강지수가 아내들보다 의미있게 높게 나타나 결혼관계에 대한 부부간의 차이를 알수 있었다. 3) 건강한 결혼을 예견하는 변인으로 남편에게는 존경과 대화가, 아내에게는 애정, 문제해결능력, 성생활이 더 큰 영향을 주는 것으로 밝혀졌으며, 이는 곧 심리적 변인이 사회인구학적 변인보다 더 큰 영향을 주는 것임을 의미하는 것이라 하겠다.

본 연구는 한국인과 결혼하여 국내에 살고 있는 남녀 국제결혼이민자들이 한국 사회에 적응하는 과정에서 겪게 되는 문화적응스트레스와 정신건강(심리적 안녕감)과의 관계를 분석하였다. 본 연구에서는 결혼이민자들의 문화적응 과정을 스트레스유발 생애사건으로 간주함에 따라 이 과정에서 겪게 되는 다양한 스트레스(원)들이 정신건강에 미치는 영향을 분석하는데 초점을 맞추었다. 경기도에 거주하는 여성결혼이민자 810명과 남성결혼이민자 203명을 대상으로 한 설문조사 자료 분석결과, 여성결혼이민자와 남성결혼이민자 모두가 결혼이주를 하면서 기대했던 생활수준 향상의 욕구가 충족될수록, 경제적 문제로 인한 스트레스를 덜 받을수록, 부부관계가 긍정적일수록, 또한 신체적으로 건강한 상태를 유지하는 사람들일수록 심리적 적응수준이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 반면, 여성결혼이민자는 특히 가족생활적응과 관련한 스트레스가 낮을수록 심리적 적응수준이 높은 것에 비해, 남성결혼이민자의 심리적 적응수준은 직장과 관련한 스트레스에 더 민감하게 반응하는 것으로 밝혀졌다.

The purpose of this study was to examine factors influencing emotional and behavior characteristics among children in multicultural families. The factors include demographic and psychological characteristics of married immigrant women. Surveys were distributed to 200 married immigrant women and, 148 surveys were returned and analyzed. The findings are as follows: first, emotional and behavioral characteristics of children were significantly associated with the age of their mothers and household income. Second, acculturative stress in married immigrant women was significantly related to the overall behavior characteristics of their children. Third, children whose mothers experienced a higher level of acculturative stress and were of older age showed internalizing problems. The level of Korean language proficiency and marital satisfaction were also important factors influencing sub-categories of internalizing and externalizing problems aside from acculturative stress. Implications and suggestions to develop preventative programs for emotional and behavioral problems of children in multicultural families are discussed.
