The collected data were analyzed using Pearson's correlation analysis and stepwise multiple regression analysis on SPSS program. The results of this study were as follow. First, there was a significant relationship between mother's rearing attitude, teacher interaction and toddlers language abilities. However, toddlers' temperament showed no significant correlations with toddlers language abilities. Second, teacher's positive attitude was the best predictor of toddlers language abilities.

본 연구는 애착관계를 중심으로 모-자녀간 상호작용의 특성 및 외조모 모, 손녀 3세 대간의 애착관계의 전이와 그것이 반영이 사회적 능력에 미치는 영향을 전생애적 관점에서 파악하고자 하였다 연구대상은 만 14-20개월의 영아와 그 어머니 45쌍 국민학교 1,2,3학년 아동과 그들의 어머니 226쌍 그리고 중.고등학교에 재학중인 여학생과 어머니 외할머니로 구성된 모녀간 3세대 140쌍이었다. 본 연구의 결과 애착관계는 전생애에 걸쳐 비교적 높았 고 상호작용적으로 나타났다 그러나 애착의 특징은 발달단계별로 달라 영아의 어머니에 대 한 애착관계는 어머니의 적절한 양육행동이 아동기는 신뢰감을 주는 양육행동이 청년기에는 애착감정이 그리고 중년기 이후에는 자율성만이 애착관계와 관련이 있었다 3세대간의 애착 관계의 전이는 중년기 이후에만 나타났고 애착과 사회적 능력과의 관계는 아동기, 청년기, 중년기, 노년기까지 관계가 있는 것으로 나타나 애착관계가 전생애적으로 사회적 능력에 중 요함을 보여준다. 이상을 통해 볼 때 본 연구는 전체적으로 전생애적 관점에서의 애착이론 을 지지하였다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of mothers' parenting beliefs and supportive interaction on maternal parenting stress. It also examined variations of the results by household income levels and mothers' employment status. Participants of the study were 770 mothers of children aged 23-31 months who were a part of the 2010 wave of the National Survey for Panel Study on Korean Children. The analyses revealed that parenting stress was affected by mothers' parenting beliefs and supportive interaction. Mothers' supportive interaction has been shown significantly to predict parenting stress in all four groups of this study. The results demonstrated that the strength of the relationship between parenting stress and parenting beliefs and reciprocal interaction varied based on the combination of income and work status. These findings suggested that income and employment status are important to examine collectively.

This study investigated parenting knowledge, interactions between mother and infant, and relationship between mother's parenting knowledge and mother-infant interaction by mothers' demographic variables. Subjects were 311 mothers. Instruments were the Knowledge of Child Development Inventory (Larsen & Juhasz, 1986) and the Assessment Profile for Early Childhood programs (Abbott-Shim & Sibely, 1987). Data were analyzed by t-test and ANOVA. Results showed (1) differences about parenting knowledge by mothers' employment status, age and education level, (2) differences in mother-infant interaction by mothers' age and education level, (3) parenting knowledge about physical development correlated positively with positive interaction, linguistic modeling, and sensitive response knowledge about linguistic and cognitive development had a large effect on positive mother-infant interaction and linguistic modeling.

The subjects of this study were 31 mothers and their first-born infants from middle class families living in Seoul. Mother-infant interactions were filmed at 5 and 13 months of age during naturalistic play situations at home. Questionnaire data were also collected. Results revealed that both maternal didactic and social interactions decreased over the 5 to 13 month time period but (only for infants) object-oriented interaction increased over time. Infant object-oriented interaction at 13 months was predicted by cumulative effects of both mother's social stimulation at 5 months and infant social interaction at 13 months. Infant's social interaction at 13 months was predicted by infant's object-oriented interaction at 13 months. Infant language development was predicted by mother's didactic stimulation.

This study investigated the development of infant behaviors and maternal scaffolding in mother-infant games. Subjects were 60 mothers and their 9-, 12-, 15- and 18-month infants, 15 dyads in each age group. Mother-infant interaction was videotaped in the laboratory as they played peek-a-boo and a ball game in 2 sessions. Infant game behaviors were classified by the Rome-Flanders, Cossette, Ricard and $D{\acute{e}}carie$(1995) list, and maternal game behaviors were classified by the Hodapp, Goldfield & Boyatzis(1984) list. Data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA, two-way ANOVA with repeated measures, sequential analysis and Z test as well as qualitative analysis. Results showed that infants played an increasingly active role with age. Infants mastered the ball game at earlier age than peek-a-boo. Mothers scaffolded infant behaviors in various ways. The amount of maternal game behavior varied by type of game.
