Data were collected from 185 mothers who were professionals, office or labor workers, and have their children enrolled at the day care center located at their workplace. All the subjects lived in Seoul. The results of this study were as follows: 1. The working mothers'parenting stress was found to be at a moderate level(Mean=2.30). 2. The hierarchical and stepwise regression analyses revealed that significant variables in explaining the parenting stress of working mothers were the degrees of attachment with the subject's mother($\beta$=-.24), age($\beta$=-.23), the degrees of flexibility in working conditions($\beta$=-.19), educational level($\beta$=.18), the degrees of husbands'participation in child care($\beta$=-.17), and the number of children ($\beta$=.16). These variables explained 17.2% of working mother's parenting stress. 3.

The results of these findings suggest the attribute factors for selection were classified into ten : physical service, cleanliness/promptness, human service, convenience/promotion, accessibility, menu variety, food quality, service for child and parking, added service, and comfortness. “Cleanliness” and “good taste” were considered as determining factors in selecting a fast food restaurant. According to the consumer's use behaviors and demographics, attribute factors for fast food selection were significantly different. Therefore, the marketers and managers on the fast food industry should develop their own appropriate marketing strategies and implement effective targeting, positioning, and promotional strategies.

In the studies on residential move, there has been tendency of dichotomy where short distance moves are largely caused by housing to adjust to changes in households while long distance moves are induced by shift in labor market. However, some empirical studies have proven that residential move is so complex process that the simple dichotomy should be elaborated. In this sense, the present study seeks to identify compounded course of residential move in Korea. In determining migration history, families with younger householders, renters, householders with higher educational attainment and smaller households show a higher probability to move. In case of mobility, women were more prone to move compared to man. Women compared to man, older age augmented the probability to own a house after migration. Families with householders following an occupation of sales and technical service showed lowest tendency to own houses while it marked the highest in the group of professionals. Higher land price of a region was negatively related to owning houses after migration. The present study revealed that factors in macro level as well as micro level significantly affect the move of individuals with varying effects in accordance with migration history.

본 연구는 구강보건행태 방법을 이해하고 다양한 연령층과 직업, 잇솔질 횟수와 잇솔질 시기를 분석하여 개개인의 구강건강을 증진시키기 위한 연구자료 및 구강보건 인식 증진 프로그램 개발에 기초자료를 제공하고자 2007년 10월 22일에서 23일까지 대전광역시에 거주하는 만 19세 이상 남녀를 대상으로 무작위 표본추출로 선정된 응답자를 대상으로 구조화된 설문지를 활용하여 분석하였다. 3회 이상 잇솔 사용을 분석한 결과 성별인 경우 여자가, 연령은 20대, 교육 수준 별로 대학교 재학 이상, 직업은 화이트칼라(전문직), 가계 수입별로는 500만원이상, 체질당지수는 저체중, 흡연 여부에서는 비흡연이, 최근 2년간 건강검진 경험의 경우 경험이 있는 사람이, 주관적 건강상태의 경우 좋을수록 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다. 식사 직후 잇솔 사용에 대하여 분석한 결과 교육수준에서 학력이 높을수록, 전문직일수록, 평균 월 수입이 많을수록, 흡연 유무에서는 비흡연, 최근 2년간 건강검진 경험의 경우 경험이 있는 사람이, 관적 건강상태의 경우 좋을수록 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다. 3회 이상 잇솔 사용을 종속변수로 로지스틱회귀분석을 실시한 결과 남성에 비해 여성이, 학력은 중졸이하에 비해 고졸이, 직업은 학생에 비해 가정주부가, 주관적 건강상태는 좋을수록 잇솔 사용 횟수가 식후 3회일 경향을 보였다. 식사 직후 잇솔 사용을 종속변수로 로지스틱회귀분석을 실시한 결과 학력은 중졸이하에 비해 고졸, 대졸이, 직업은 학생에 비해 자영업과 가정주부가, 흡연자에 비해 비흡연자가, 건강검진 경험자, 주관적 건강상태는 좋을수록 잇솔 사용 횟수가 식후 잇솔질의 경향을 보였다. 이상과 같은 결과를 볼 때 높은 교육수준이나, 건강에 대한 자기 신념이 높은 사람들은 구강 관리도 소홀하지 않다는 것을 보여주고 있다. 또한 그렇지 못한 그룹은 지속적인 교육 및 관리를 하여 구강관리의 중요성을 일깨워줘야 됨은 물론이며, 구강관리 뿐만 아니라 전체적인 건강관리에 대한 교육 프로그램을 개발 연구되어야 할 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the general characteristics, work overload, work life balance, job engagement of working adolescents and the factors affecting job engagement. We examined 1,772 working adolescents under the age of 24 years in response to the fifth Korean Working Conditions Survey. Technical statistics, t-test, ANOVA, and regression analysis were used. The study results showed that men had high-level job engagement when they were professional, self-employed, 41-52 hours per week, and never experienced employment discrimination. For women, job engagement was high if they were under 19 years of age, college graduates, professions, temporary work, 41-52 hours a week, and had never experienced gender discrimination, and employment discrimination. In addition, the job engagement of both men and women was higher when work overload was less and work life balance was good. This study is meaningful in that it examined the job engagement of working youth by using the Korean Working Conditions Survey representative of Korean workers. However, it has limitations in that it does not take into account specific circumstances such as academic status or military service. Based on the study results, it can be used as basic data for developing educational programs to manage job engagement and understanding of working adolescents.

This article analyzes the formative factors of the basic job skills(also the ability of computer using) and the economic effects of the basic job skills in Korea. This article uses the ALL(Adult Literacy and Life Skills) 2005 data in Korea. The factors which form the basic job skills are school years, father's education. Women are under men in the ability of computer using. The older a man grow, the more basic job skills he has, but the less ability of computer using he has. The employees in office worker or new service industry have more using computer ability than them in sales worker or manufacture industry. The wage effects of the basic job skills are insignificant, and the economic effects of basic job skills appear apparently in the entry into the good jobs. As the basic job skills can play a important role to enter into the good jobs, the policy agenda should make deal with the methods and programs through which the people without basic job skills must have the opportunities to get a lifelong learning for the basic job skills.
