This study examined effects of demographic characteristics, mothers' perceived social pressure regarding their children's education, social conspicuousness, competitiveness, and self-esteem on the mothers' fervor for their children's education. These effects were analysed separately by residential area. A total of 231 mothers who had children attend middle school at Mok-dong and Ahyun-dong surveyed by questionnaire. There were significant differences based on the mothers' residential area. Mok-dong mothers have a higher perceived social pressure about child education, self-esteem, education fervor for their child, and monthly income and fathers' and mothers' education level than Ahyun-dong mothers. In Mok-dong mothers, only demographic characteristics of the family significantly explained the mothers' education fervor. Specifically, monthly income and fathers' education level were positively related to education fervor of Mok-dong mothers. Ahyun-dong mothers' social pressure about child education and self-esteem significantly explained mothers' education fervor for their child after controlling their demographic characteristics. Specifically, positive social pressure and positive self-esteem were positively related to mothers' education fervor about their child.

The purpose of this study is to examine how the mother's educational aspirations and household's characteristics have an effect on the likelihood of private educational expenditures and the amount of private educational expenditures. Factor analysis, probit and tobit analyses were used. The main findings can be summarized as the following: The mother's educational aspirations for intrinsic values is higher than for extrinsic values. The mother's educational aspirations for extrinsic values, household's assets, and residing in Seoul rather than residing in Incheon had significant positive effects on the likelihood of private educational expenditures. However, the child's birth order had a significant negative effect on the likelihood of private educational expenditures. The mother's educational aspirations for extrinsic values, the mother's education level, household's income, household's assets, and residing in Seoul rather than residing in Incheon had significant positive effects on the amount of private educational expenditures. However, the child's birth order had a significant negative effect on the amount of private educational expenditures. Findings from this study offer several implications. First, the mother's educational aspirations for extrinsic values rather than for intrinsic values has an effect on private educational expenditures. Unless the mother's educational aspirations have been changed to pursuing intrinsic values, the private educational expenditures cannot be reduced. Second, the polarization of the household's income and assets could bring about the polarization of private educational expenditures, which can lead to the intergenerational income polarization.

이 연구는 최근 자녀양육에 있어서 관심이 커지고 있는 아버지의 양육태도를 측정하기 위한 척도를 개발하기 위하여 실시되었다. 연구자들은 국내외 선행연구에서 다양한 요인을 고려하여 총 57개 문항으로 이루어진 예비형 설문검사도구를 구성하였다. 구성된 설문을 서울과 부산에서 무작위 표집한 만 12세 이상의 자녀를 둔 정상가정의 어머니 126명에게 작성토록 하여 척도화 가능한 요인을 추출하고 그 신뢰도를 알아보았다. 그 결과‘능동적 참여’, ‘민주적 지도’, ‘적대’, ‘온정’, ‘교육열’의 5개 소척도를 얻을 수 있었으며 이들의 내적 일치도를 나타내는 Cronbach’s ${\alpha}$계수는 각각 .82, .78, .65, .78, .61이었다. 또한 상기 5개 소척도, 총 29문항으로 구성된 최종적인 설문검사도구의 변별타당도를 알아보기 위하여 국립서울정신병원에서 치료 중인 환자로 DSM-Ⅳ 기준에 의거하여 정신분열병과 제1형 양극성 장애로 진단받은 환자의 어머니를 각각 47명과 29명을 선정하였고, 대조군으로 만 18세 이상의 자녀를 둔 정상가정의 어머니 46명을 무작위 표집하였다. 변별타당도에서 ‘교육열’ 소척도를 제외한 소척도들은 정신분열병군 아버지와 대조군 아버지의 양육태도를 잘 구별하고 있었으며 특히‘적극적 참여’, ‘온정’ 소척도에서는 대조군과 나머지 두 군 모두를 잘 구별하고 있었다.
