이 연구에서는 어머니의 자녀 양육 행동에 대한 청소년과 어머니간의 지각 차이와 청소년의 적응을 연관시켜 고찰하였다. 자료 수집은 질문지를 통해 이루어졌으며, 참여자들은 미국 동부 소도시에 거주하는 82명의 9 학년 남녀 학생과 어머니들이었다. 자료 분석 결과, 평균적으로는 어머니들이 청소년 자녀들보다 자신의 자녀 양육 행동을 더 긍정적으로 지각했다. 청소년의 적응을 어머니와의 지각 차이에 따라 살펴 본 결과, 어머니의 양육 행동을 어머니 보다 긍정적으로 지각하는 청소년들이 어머니 보다 부정적으로 지각하는 청소년 보다 문제 행동을 하는 경향이 낮았으며, 자신감은 높았다. 또한, 어머니의 양육행동을 어머니 보다 긍정적으로 지각하는 청소년들이 그렇지 못한 청소년들에 비해 어머니와 원활한 의사소통을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 이 연구의 결과들은 청소년과 어머니간의 지각 차이가 측정 상의 문제만이 아닌 청소년 발달과 연관 있는 요인임을 지적한다. 그리고, 지각 차이를 연구할 때는 그 차이의 크기 뿐 아니라 청소년과 어머니 중 어느 편의 지각이 더 부정적인지도 고려해야 한다는 점을 지적한다.

The present study aimed to examine the mediation effect of identity development between perceived parental academic achievement pressure (PPAAP) and mental health. Specifically, we examined whether the relation between PPAAP and mental health is mediated by the positive or negative aspects of identity development. Participants were 110 Korean college students. They completed online self-report questionnaires that included PPAAP, identity development, personal well-being, and depression. We found that PPAAP was negatively related to personal well-being and positively related to depression. Moreover, the relation between PPAAP and mental health was mediated only by the negative aspects of identity development. In other words, PPAAP was related to the negative aspects of identity development, which, in turn, was negatively associated with mental health. This study contributes to the literature in that it proposed identity development as a mediator between PPAAP and mental health and found that the negative, not positive, aspects of identity development mediated the relation. We suggest that institutional interventions that help develop identity can be an effective way to mitigate the negative impacts of PPAAP on mental health of children living in the highly competitive Korean society. Limitations and future research directions are also discussed.

본 연구에서는 액착이론 및 가족발달적 접근을 바탕으로 하여 성인딸과 어머니의 상대방에대한 애착, 그들의 상호작용, 주거상 거리, 딸의 결혼 및 부모기로의 변화(tran-sition)등 성인 모녀 관계에서 중요한 제 변인들 간의 관계를 알아보았다. 본 연구에서는 유목적적 편의표집 방법을 이용하여 100쌍의 성인 딸과 그들의 친 어머니를 대상으로 선정하였으며 횡단적 비교를 위하여 성인 딸의 결혼 여부 및 자녀 유무에 따라 다음과 같은 3집단으로 구분하였다 : 미혼의 딸과 그들의 어머니(미혼기) 자녀가 없는 기혼의 딸과 그들 의 어머니(신혼기), 자녀가 있는 기혼의딸과 그들의 어머니(부모기), 성인 모녀 애착 질문지를 이용하여 얻은 응답을 토대로 성인 딸과 어머니의 애착에 영향을 미치는 변인들을 중다회귀분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 성인모녀 애착은 상호 호혜적이었다. 성인 모녀간의 상호작용, 모녀간 애착의 차이, 딸의 결혼여부는 성인 딸과 어머니의 애착에 유의한 영향을 미쳤는데, 특히 이들 변인과 관련하여 성인 모녀가 서로에 대한 애착을 지각하는 양상에는 차이가 있었다. 모녀간 주거상 거리는 성인 모녀 액착에 아무런 영향을 미치지 않았으며 이것은 서 인기의 상장적 애착을 의미한다고 할 수 있다.

This study investigated the relationship between social support and caregiving self-efficacy among 530 mothers of persons with intellectual disabilities in their childhood(age 3-12), adolescence(age 13-18), and adulthood(age 19-35), exploring the moderating effect of the life span affiliation of the children with disabilities. The analysis revealed that greater perception of social support predicted higher level of caregiving self-efficacy for all the mothers. However, the moderating effect was detected indicating that there were differences in the effects of social support on caregiving self-efficacy across groups. Although social support was found to have some positive effects on caregiving self-efficacy for each group of mothers of both adolescents and adults, no effects for a group of mothers of children. These findings suggested that greater emphasis be placed on the expanded provision of social support for families of persons with intellectual disabilities in their developmental stages following the childhood.

This paper examines the changes in family values in Korea by examining values of children, socialization values, and social support of elderly parents with young and olders mothers. A total of 314 mothers of infants (young mothers) and 395 mothers of adolescents (older mothers) completed a questionnaire compiled by Schwarz, Chakkarath, Trommsdorff, Schwenk and Nauck(2001) comprising of values of children, cultural values, socialization values, interpersonal relationship, social support, stress, and life-satisfaction. In terms of values of children, the older mothers are more likely to emphasize social values, such as continuing the family line. Young mothers are more likely to emphasize psychological values, such as the pleasure of seeing a child grow. As for reasons for net wanting to have children, young mothers are more likely to point out personal constraints than older mothers, such as restriction of freedom. Second, older mothers are more likely than young mothers to express willingness to provide support for their children and even when their children become adults. Older mothers had a more lenient expectation of their children in terms developmental timetable and to expect support from their children when compared with young mothers. Young mothers are more likely to socialize their children with greater warmth and at the same time have higher child-rearing stress when compared to older mothers. Third, when compared with older mothers, young mothers are more likely to receive practical and emotional support from their parents. On the other hand, older mothers are more likely to provide greater practical and emotional support to their parents than the young mothers. Overall, compared to young mothers, older mothers are more likely to hold traditional and conservative values of children and socialization values. These contrasting values reflect the changes in family structure and social change that have been progressing rapidly in recent years.

The main purpose of the study was to examine relationships of child development with maternal social networks and maternal perceptions of parenting difficulty. Subjects were 90 children, ages 4 and 5, with their mothers. Child development was measured by School Readiness Test, peer nomination, and social competency ratings by teachers. Mothers responded to a questionnaire regarding social networks and parenting difficulty. The major findings of the study include: 1) Employed mothers reported receiving less emotional support and listed more in-laws and work colleagues in their social network than unemloyed mothers. 2) Mothers who perceived receiving more emotional support from networks reported less difficulty in parenting, especially in providing cognitive stimulation and daily routine care to their children. 3) Children's age and maternal perceptions of easiness in providing cognitive stimulation were the most contributing factors for predicting children's learning readiness and social competency.
