The study examined the mediated-moderation effect of parental reflection levels from maternal childhood experiences by the parents to mother's reaction to negative emotions of their preschoolers by examining it through the lens of parental role satisfaction. The participants in this study were 327 mothers who and their infants aged 3-6 years. They completed questionnaires on the maternal childhood experiences scale, parental reflection scale, parental role satisfaction scale and mother's reaction to negative emotions of their preschoolers scale. The results of the structural equation model analysis are as follows. First, a mediating model revealed that the relationship between maternal childhood experiences by parents and mother's reactions to negative emotions of their preschoolers was mediated by parental role satisfaction. Second, the results revealed the moderation effect of parents reflection levels on the relationship between maternal childhood experiences by parents and parental role satisfaction. Finally, parental reflection levels were also seen to have a mediated moderation effect of parental reflection level from maternal childhood experiences to mother's reaction to negative emotions of their preschoolers through parental role satisfaction.

This study examined the relationship between parent-child relationship experiences in childhood and adulthood, and individual development and psychological well-being in mid to later life using structural equation modeling with data from 1,882 parents who have at least one child over 18 years old. Findings indicated that receiving more affectionate parenting in childhood was associated with greater generativity development, more positive parental experiences with one's own children, and better psychological well-being in mid to later adulthood. In addition, the effects of received parenting in childhood on psychological well-being after midlife were partially mediated by parental experiences with adult children and generativity development. These findings suggest that early experiences with parents in childhood continuously influence psychological well-being in adulthood through their impact on concurrent family experiences. However, early influences can be redirected through adult experiences too. These findings have implications for the development of intervention programs aimed at promoting volunteer work for older adults, as well as for practitioners who work with families and individuals who are having problems.

The purpose of this study is to develop a teaching and learning plan for parental understanding classes for middle school students and to investigate the effect of the classes on the parent-child relationship by implementing the class. The classes were conducted from July 5 to July 15, 2021, for the second graders of S middle school in Gwangju Metropolitan City, in a total of 6 sessions, i.e., 3 sessions per week for 2 weeks. The influence of classes on parent-child relationship was measured in terms of the understanding of the middle age, degrees of interaction, affection, and bond with parents. In order to analyze the impact of classes, pre- and post-class online surveys were conducted on 184 students who agreed to participate. For the collected quantitative data, descriptive statistics, reliability analysis, and pairwise t-tests were performed using the SPSS Ver 22.0 statistical program. According to the results, students' understanding of the developmental characteristics of middle age increased and the interaction between the students and their parents increased after the class. And the overall affection with the mother increased significantly. Also, students' bonds with both mother and father were significantly improved. Based on these results, the necessity and direction of home economics class were discussed to form a positive relationship between adolescent children and their parents.

This study compared male and female university students' perceptions of parenthood and their need for pre-parental educational program. Responses of 579 university students in 5 universities were collected using a questionnaire developed by the researchers. Data were analyzed using a T-test and Pearson's chi squared test. Results showed that (1) systematic and pre-parental education may increase opportunities for university students to prepare parent and child rearing skills. (2) Any pre-parent educational program developed should cover practical and such as communication skills, child-rearing techniques and ways of disciplining children. In this way an educational program could provide university students suitable guidance and give them a positive and proper attitude toward parenting should they become parents in the future.

부모의 사랑은 가정환경을 통하여 자녀의 대인관계나 사회화에 있어서 최초의 모델이 될 수 있고 자녀의 성격형성이나 문제행동에 깊은 영향을 준다. 이 연구는 청년기 자녀의 잠재된 갈등요인 즉 청년들에게 영향을 주는 요인이 무엇인가를 면접조사와 TAT를 통한 방법으로 시행하였다. 면접조사 결과 부모는 거부적 과보호, 무관심으로 청년들의 갈등을 일으키고 형제간의 갈등이 있는 것으로 나타났다. TAT결과는 부모상에서 부모의 모습은 무관심하거나, 간섭이 심하고 강요적이었으며 환경반응은 가족간의 사랑과 이해가 없는 경우로 나타났다. 불안 갈등요인도 형제간의 갈등, 부모에 대한 사랑의 부족, 결핍 등으로 나타났다.

본 연구에서는 청소년기 자녀들이 가족의 응집성과 가족의 적응력을 어떻게 지각하 고 있는가를 실증적으로 살펴보고자한다. 연구결과 첫째 부모와 청소년 자녀간의 대인거리, 심리적거리, 의사소통개방성은 부모의 연령, 자녀의 성별, 재학부별에 의하여 부모와 자녀관 계를 상당한 정도로 예측할 수 있다. 둘째 부모와 청소년 자녀간의 의사소통은 자녀들이 지 각하는 가족의 응집성과 적응력에서 가장큰 영향력을 보인다 이는 청소년 자녀가 있는 가족 의 정서적 유대감과 변화대처능력은 부모와의 대화가 결정적으로 중요하고 자녀와의 갈등이 나 문제해결에 있어 부모와 자녀간의 대화가 결정적으로 중요하고 자녀와의 갈등이나 문제 해결에 있어 부모와 자녀간의 대화가 일차적인 기능을 하게 됨을 반영한다. 셋째 부모와 청 소년 자녀간의 의사소통 중에서도 특히 부와의 의사소통이 가장 큰 영향력을 미치는 것으로 보아 변화의 시기인 청소년기 자녀의 성장과정에서 아버지의 역할이 강조된다.

This study conducted in-depth interviews of seven parents with autistic adults and analyzed them using qualitative case study methods in order to understand overall meaning of care experiences of parents with autistic adult children. Thus, four key topics which are 'experience of embracement', 'experience of anticipation', 'experience of despair', 'experience of resistance' were constructed. Under these key topics, 12 subcategories which are 'accepting reality', 'positive experience', 'gradual improvement', 'desire to provide better quality of life', 'expectation towards the society', 'strenuous lives', 'psychological exhaustion', 'predicted anxiety', 'defensive attitude', 'distrust of social welfare', 'confronting injustice', 'active behaviors' were constructed. According to the analysis, care experiences of parents with autistic adults are not segmentary, but they are intertwined which make them more dynamic. Thus, easing their despair, empowering positiveness to them, and assisting them to have healthy resistant voice are needed to support the parents with autistic adults. Based on the analysis, we suggest an intervention plan to support autistic adults and their parents.

The purpose of this study was to identify the differences of the meaning of parents in age, and relationship between meaning of parents, meaning in life and depression. The online survey data of 400 including 100 late-adolescents, 100 young adults, 100 mid adults, and 100 older adults was used. The main results were as follows. First, meaning of parents was positively correlated with meaning in life and negatively correlated with depression. Also meaning in life was negatively correlated with depression. Second, there were no age difference in meaning of parents in anova analysis. Third, through structural equation modeling showed that meaning of parents had significant effect on depression mediated by meaning in life. These findings suggested that meaning of parents and meaning in life can be protactive factors on depression. Finally, practical implications and limitataions were suggested for future research.
