The main purpose of this study was to explore the variables predicting mothers' parenting attitudes in Korean-Japanese multi-cultural families in comparison to Korean families. Differences in parental beliefs, life-satisfaction and parenting attitudes between these two groups were also examined. Data were collected via questionnaires from 110 Japanese and 168 Korean mothers of young children. Results revealed that mothers' beliefs on value of child and parental role, life-satisfaction and parenting attitudes were different across the families. Costed-concept of child and low life-satisfaction predicted 'shaming' and 'coercive' parenting for Japanese mothers whereas parental role beliefs as an 'authority' figure predicted 'shaming' parenting for Korean mothers. Life-satisfaction was most influential to predict 'affectionate-rational' parenting for both group.

The purpose of this study was to explore Korean mothers' beliefs regarding their toddlers' temperament, including what they believe constitutes desirable and undesirable behavior, and their resulting reactions. Data were collected int the process of interviewing 50 Korean mothers of toddlers (whose average age was 34.1 Months, and of which 54% were boys). Results revealed that mothers considered 'High-Sociality', 'Positive Affect' and 'High-Effortful Control' as desirable temperaments, whereas 'Negative Affect', 'Under-Effortful Control' and 'Low Sociality' were considered to be undesirable temperaments for toddlers. Mothers cited the importance of child 'Sociality' and 'Development', 'Easiness of Parenting' and 'Child Happiness' as the reasons for their beliefs. While, they considered 'Negative Affect', 'Under-Effortful Control' and 'Low Sociality' to be undesirable temperaments, citing 'Sociality', 'Difficulty of Parenting', 'Development' and 'Child Safety' as the reasons. Finally, mothers were more likely to give verbal encouragement or physical encouragement such as hugging, in responding to desirable behavior on the part of their child, whereas they were more likely to give firm inhibition, reasoning or inconsistent reaction to their child's undesirable behavior. Many of the mothers' beliefs varied depending on the child's gender. Results were discussed in relation to cultural perspectives.

This study examines the factors related to university students' positive beliefs about the consequences of maternal employment. A total of 338 university students in Seoul, Gyeong-gi, and Kyungnam area provided information about their socio-economic background, parents' employment history, achievement motivation, and gender egalitarian attitude. A two-way analysis of variance showed significant interaction effects of gender and grade on positive beliefs about the consequences of maternal employment. Multiple regression analyses by gender indicated that factors related with university students' positive beliefs about the consequences of maternal employment may differ by gender. For male students, grade, and socio-cultural gender egalitarian attitude were significantly related to positive beliefs about the consequences of maternal employment. For female students, grade, family monthly income, mother's employment during elementary school, and achievement motivation were related with positive beliefs about the consequences of maternal employment.

The purpose of this study is to investigate mothers' beliefs regarding children's literacy development and self-reported home literacy practices with their children. The instrument used for this study measured mothers' beliefs toward the whole language approach against the traditional approaches in children's literacy development. The total number of 340 mothers participated in this study who are sending their children to daycare centers of kindergartens in Seoul and its suburban area. Mean, Standard Deviation, frequency, Spearman's rho, and Kendall's tau were employed to analyze the data. The results showed that mothers' beliefs on the whole language approach have relationships with their home literacy practices, and their demographic characteristics - such as mothers' education, their spouses' education, and income - were also related with mothers' beliefs. The results of this study explore the inter-relationship of mothers' beliefs with home literacy practices, and also the importance of mothers' belief system on children's literacy learning at home.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the influence of hope, core beliefs, and social support on the posttraumatic growth of mothers with chronically ill children. Methods: In this study, 94 mothers who gave written consent completed the questionnaires between July 21 and July 31, 2012 when they visited a university hospital in Seoul, Korea. Data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient and stepwise multiple regression. Results: Hope, core belief and social support had positive correlations with posttraumatic growth. Models including these variables explained 64.8% (F=55.276, p<.001) of the variance for posttraumatic growth. Hope (${\beta}$=.441, p<.001) was the most influential factor. Conclusion: The findings demonstrate that it is essential for nurses to mediate and facilitate posttraumatic growth of mothers caring for chronically ill children. Furthermore, there is an need to develop and implement new strategies in clinical practice that will result in improvements in posttraumatic growth.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the home literacy environment, mother's literacy belief and parenting efficacy in terms of the interaction which occurs during reading picture books between mothers and preschoolers. Questionnaires from 378 5-year-olds' mothers in Seoul and Kyunggi province were analysed. The findings from the validated structural equation model constructed with these variables were as follows. First, the home literacy environment, the mother's literacy beliefs and the mother's general parenting efficacy affected the quantity, and the quality of interaction whilst reading books with preschoolers. Second, the mother's efficacy in education and communication had a direct impact on the quantity of the interaction during reading books through the mediation of the home literacy environment, and had an indirect effect on the quality of the interaction whilst reading books, respectively. Third, the mother's efficacy in communication directly accounted for the quality of the interaction which occurs whilst reading books with children.

The purpose of this study was to examine the influences of mothers' beliefs, guidance, and use of resources for writing on young children's writing ability. A total of 450 children aged 3 to 5 years and their mothers from 6 different provinces participated in this study. The results of this study are as follows. First, mothers conducted more writing guidance to older children. And their beliefs and use of resources for conventional writing were reinforced as children got older. There was no difference in mothers' beliefs and use of resources for emergent writing according to children's age. Second, mothers' beliefs, guidance, and use of resources for children's writing were robustly correlated. These correlations were prominent in each factor of emergent or conventional writing. Third, mothers' writing guidance and use of emergent writing resources had positive effects on children's writing ability, while the use of conventional writing resources had a negative impact.

This study explored the parental belief types of mothers who had defected from North Korea and found out its relationship to the mother's child-rearing behaviors and socio-demographical variables and the child's age. 89 mothers who had defected from North Korea with the youngest child being under 20 years old, responded to the questionnaire. The data were statistically analyzed by cluster analysis, MANOVA, and $X^2$-test. The results showed that the parental beliefs were clustered into 3 types: 'high child- and parent-centered & low cultural transformation'(cluster 1)(37.08%), 'low child- and parent-centered & middle cultural transformation'(cluster 2)(46.03%), and 'high child- and parent-centered & high cultural transformation'(cluster 3)(16.85%). The differences among the clusters were found in the warmth-acceptance and rejection-restriction dimensions of the mother's child-rearing behaviors. The frequencies of each cluster were meaningfully different depending on the mother's age, educational level, length of residence in South Korea, and their child's age. Based on these findings, the implications and suggestions were discussed.

The study is to investigate mothers' parental beliefs about child development and the children's developmental tasks, and to explore the relationship between mother's parental beliefs and child-rearing behaviors. The subjects are 113 pairs of 4- to 5-year-old children and their mothers. For measuring maternal beliefs about child-development, 'beliefs about development scale' and 'child-rearing beliefs scales' were used. For mother's child-rearing behaviors, 'child rearing behavior observation scale' was used. The main results were: first, mothers value the cognitive theory and 'autonomous behavior' higher than 'conforming behavior' in developing their children. Second, there were no differences in mother's parenting beliefs in the factors of 'gender of their children' and 'maternal job status', while there were significant differences in maternal beliefs according to the levels of mother's education and family income. Third, sub-scales of their parenting beliefs were correlated with interactive behaviors between them and their children. The more mothers put importance on cognitive theory and children's autonomous behaviors, the more their supportive child-rearing behaviors during child-mother task solving situations were showed.

본 연구는 한국 부모가 부모소명에 대해 어떠한 인식을 가지고 있는지, 부모소명이 어떠한 개념과 연결되는지 살펴보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 사회연결망 분석을 통해 부모소명 인식에 관한 네트워크를 추출하여, 아버지와 어머니가 가지고 있는 인식의 차이를 비교하였다. 연구 결과, 어머니가 아버지보다 유의하게 큰 네트워크와 밀도를 보여 어머니가 아버지보다 더 많은 부모소명 개념을 사용하여 부모됨과 자녀 양육을 경험하는 것으로 나타났다. 구체적으로, 부모들은 책임감, 자녀성장, 방향성, 헌신, 부모의 인간적 자질을 부모소명과 직접 연결했다. 그러나 어머니는 여기에 더해 정체감, 부모성장을 연결했고, 아버지의 경우 부모 공통 개념에서 방향성이 빠져 총 4개의 개념만을 부모소명과 직접 연결했다. 이는 아버지에 비해 어머니가 부모로서 정체성과 같은 본질적인 자기 개념과 성장의 주제를 부모소명에 연결하고 있음을 보여준다. 개념 간 상대적 중요도를 평가하는 연결중앙성에서는 부모 공통으로 책임감, 자녀성장, 방향성, 신념 순으로 나타났고, 아버지의 경우 자녀성장, 책임감, 신념 순으로, 어머니의 경우 책임감, 부모성장, 정체감이 상대적으로 중요한 개념으로 평가되었다.
