본 연구는 순응 잔여효과 패러다임을 이용하여, 아기도식 속성을 담고 있는 여러 시각 자극들(얼굴, 신체실루엣, 손)이 공통의 처리 기제를 통해 나이 지각에 영향을 주는지 확인하고자 하였다. 실험 1에서는 아기 얼굴 혹은 성인 얼굴에 순응시킨 후 아기와 성인 얼굴을 합성(morphing)한 얼굴 자극에 대해 "아기"로 지각되는지 혹은 "성인"으로 지각되는지 판단하도록 하였다. 실험 결과, 아기 순응 조건보다 성인 순응 조건에서 합성 자극을 아기로 지각하는 비율이 더 우세한, 얼굴 나이 순응 잔여효과(age adaptation aftereffect)를 확인하였다. 실험 2와 3에서는 각각 아기와 성인의 신체 실루엣과 손 이미지를 순응자극으로 사용하여 실험 1과 동일한 나이 판단 과제를 실시하였다. 실험 결과, 신체 실루엣과 손에 대한 순응은 순응자극과 같은 방향의 잔여효과(assimilative aftereffect)를 유발하거나, 순응 후에 제시되는 얼굴에 대한 나이 지각을 편향시키지 않았다. 본 연구는 성인 연령대의 얼굴 자극만을 사용한 선행 연구와 달리, 아기-성인 간 얼굴 나이 순응 잔여효과를 통해 아기와 성인 얼굴의 나이 속성이 지각적 얼굴 공간 상에서 대조적인 방향으로 부호화된다는 것을 확인하였으나, 여러 아기도식 속성들이 공통된 처리를 통해 나이 표상에 기여한다는 증거를 확인하지는 못하였다.

The purpose of this study is to find the Korean women's view to pregnancy within the Korean cultural context, to help nurses understand psychosocioemotional schema of the pregnant women, and to contribute to theory-building on the meaning of pregnancy. The interviewees were 21 women in their twenties or thirties and they were selected by theoretical sampling technique. Thirteen women of the interviewees were single and others married. Data were collected by in-depth interviews from September November in 1994. Interviews were tape-recorded and transcribed. Data were analyzed by Van Kaam's phenomenological method. Results were as follows. Eighty two descriptive expression were found and they were grouped under fourteen common factors. These are 「to maintain family」, 「instinct」, 「obligation」, 「what one should do」, 「to make home」, 「to tie couple firmly」, 「means to overcome a period of lassitude」, 「token of love」, 「hope」, 「to avoid loneliness」, 「wanted to have a baby」, 「to provide for old ages」, 「to be a mother」, 「to achieve her desire through baby」. Finally, fourteen common factors were grouped under four higher categories. Five common factors, 「to maintain family」, 「instinct」, 「obligation」, 「what one should do」, 「to make home」 were grouped under〈custom〉. Three factors, 「to tie couple firmly」, 「means to overcome a period of lassitude」, 「token of love」 were grouped under 〈love between couple〉. Four factors, 「hope」, 「to avoid loneliness」, 「wanted to have a baby」, 「to provide for old ages」 were grouped under 〈pursuiting safety〉. Two factors, 「to be a mother」, 「to achieve her desire through baby」 were grouped under 〈self-fulfillment〉. At present, the most distinguishing motivation of childbearing was rooted in the cultural custom. Korean women thought that it was their duties to have children and children were necessary in life. But they were beginning to recognize that baby could tie couple more firmly and get rid of their loneliness. Korean women no longer considered their children as the one who would take care of them when they were old or who would satisfy their unmet needs. As pregnancy is not women's duty only, authors recommend further studies on men's view to pregnancy.

Purpose. Koreans are one of the fastest growing Asian populations in the U.S. since 1960s. In Korean immigrant women (KIW), breast cancer was reported as the most frequently diagnosed cancer. However, their screening rates for breast cancer are lower than national guidelines; it is assumed that underlying cultural schemas of breast, breast cancer, and its screening modalities exist and need to be studied. This study was aimed to investigate cultural meanings of breast, breast cancer, and breast cancer screenings in KIW. Methods. Using cultural models theory from cognitive anthropology, naturalistic qualitative methodology was utilized. Three focus group interviews with fifteen KIW were conducted. Thematic analysis with constant comparison technique was performed eliciting units of meaning, categories, and themes. Results. The cultural schema of the meaning of breast is 'mother who is breast-feeding her baby,' with two themes of 'balance in size,' and 'shyness.' Regarding breast cancer, three themes, i.e., 'indifference,' 'fear,' and 'uncertainty' are emerged. 'Lack of information about screening modalities' is the overarching schema with reference to breast cancer screenings. Conclusions. The findings of this study demonstrate unique cultural models of KIW related to breast cancer and its screenings, which are critical to understand and penetrate their barriers to breast cancer screening.
