본 연구는 다문화가정 부부의 특별한 개별적 요구에 기반을 둔 부부 의사소통 및 관계증진 프로그램을 개발하고 적용 효과를 살피는 데 그 목적을 두었다. 본 프로그램은 기존 프로그램 및 선행연구 검토와 참여자의 요구조사, 전문가 면담의 과정을 통해 개발되었고, 4쌍의 다문화가정 부부에게 11주간(주 1회, 회당 120분) 부부 대화기법, 부부 상담을 활용한 부부의사소통 중재 프로그램으로 적용되었다. 프로그램이 실행되는 동안 수집된 녹음파일, 활동지, 연구자의 현장노트 등의 질적자료를 통해 살펴본 프로그램의 효과는 다음과 같다. (1) 다문화가정 부부의 친밀성이 향상되었고, (2) 부부간의 대화가 증가되었으며, (3) 특히 부부간의 의사소통 방식은 "역기능적 의사소통"에서 "협력적인 의사소통"으로 변화되었다. 결론적으로 이러한 변화가 부부관계 증진에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 개발한 부부 의사소통 프로그램은 다문화가정 부부대화의 물꼬를 열었다는 점과 부부갈등을 해결하고 관리하기 위해 의사소통 전략과 전문적인 상담지원을 하였다는 점에서 의의를 가진다.

Objectives: The aim of this study is to identify patterns of gender role attitude among older men and women and to investigate the effects of the identified patterns on marital quality for each gender. Method: The Third National Survey of Korean Families was utilized and 981 men and 752 women aged 60 and above, who have been married for over 20 years and have at least one child, were analyzed. Using Mplus 7.3, a latent profile analysis (LPA) identified latent profiles of gender role attitude for each gender. Then, using SPSS 23.0, multiple regression analysis analyzed the effects of the identified patterns on both marital satisfaction and marital conflict. Results: The latent profile analysis identified two patterns of traditional and partially egalitarian gender role attitudes each for the older men and women. Also, means on items relevant to the male breadwinner model and the male-oriented family culture were relatively low for both men and women regardless of the patterns. For the older men, the effects of the gender role attitude patterns on marital satisfaction and marital conflict were both significant; those individuals with the partially egalitarian gender role attitude pattern reported higher levels of marital satisfaction and lower levels of marital conflict than those individuals with the traditional gender role attitude pattern. However, the effects of the gender role attitude patterns on marital satisfaction and marital conflict were both not significant for the older women. Conclusions: The findings from this study suggest that political interventions are required to promote an egalitarian family culture for older adults. Moreover, its findings may be useful in the field of marriage and family therapy to develop educational programs that seek to improve marital quality in later life.

The participants were 166 mothers of children who were between 3 years and 7 years of age, living in the North Kyongsang Province. Paired t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe' test, Pearson's correlation and partial correlation analyses were conducted for this study. The results of this study were as follows. (1) In those situations where the participants experienced marital conflict and child-rearing stress, they were more likely to use an avoidance coping strategy than an approach coping strategy. (2) Among the mothers who were experiencing marital conflict or child-rearing stress, the group that suffered a higher level of stress was more likely to employ an avoidance coping strategy. However, there were no differences in the approach coping behavior by the level of stress. (3) When the level of marital conflict and child-rearing stress were controlled, approach coping behavior with marital conflict was still moderately correlated with approach coping behavior with child-rearing stress.
