Purpose: This study was done to develop a model which explains factors influencing caring behavior of mothers who have children with disabilities, and to verify the appropriateness of the model and the relationship among variables. Methods: The participants in the research were the mothers who had a 3 to 12 yr-old children with disabilities. The data were collected from 451 mothers through self-reported questionnaires from July 14 to 31, 2008. A total of the 371 data sets were analyzed using SPSS/WIN 11.5 and AMOS 5.0 version. Results: The children's behavior characteristics, social support, objective burden and parenting self-esteem had an impact on the mothers' caring behavior. Especially, parenting self-esteem including parenting satisfaction and self-efficacy was the most influential factor. These variables explained 77% of the mothers' caring behavior for these children. Conclusion: The results suggest that some strategies for promoting mothers' parenting self-esteem focused on parenting satisfaction and self-efficacy should be developed in order to help mothers in caring for their child who is disabled.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate QOL and the factors related to family caregivers who care for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) patients. Methods: The subjects were 83 family caregivers caring for ALS patients who visited the neurology outpatient section of a tertiary hospital located in Seoul between January and July of 2008. Their demographic characteristics were assessed and data were collected using the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis functional rating scale (ALSFRS), the caregiver burden inventory (CBI), HADS, and SF-36. Results: The mean score of the physical health component (PHC) of the family caregiver's QOL was $62.6{\pm}24.4$, and the mean score of the mental health component (MHC) of their QOL was $57.7{\pm}22.4$. The mean score of caregiver burden was $76.5{\pm}30.7$. Anxious family caregivers amounted to 55.4% and depressed family caregivers accounted for 63.9% overall. In a multivariate analysis, the PHC of QOL was explained by caregiver burden (41.1%), depression (9.4%), caregiver gender (3.8%), and caregiver age (3.1%). Anxiety (39.8%), caregiver burden (10.9%), patient gender (5.4%) and depression (1.7%) were predictive factors of the MHC of QOL. Conclusion: Caregiver burden and depression affected both the PHC and the MHC. Caregiver burden affected the PHC more than it did the MHC of QOL, but anxiety affected the MHC more than it did the PHC of QOL.

middle and upper class families, and examine obstacles to their introduction in Korea. Since a few large-scale facilities for the elderly with dementia have been provided for only low-income families free of charge, the necessity of group homes for middle and upper class families willing to pay for such services has become an issue recently in order to lessen the burden on families, as well as to promote the well-being of the dementia victims themselves. The survey was conducted by questionnaires collected from 577 respondents from middle and upper class families. The results of the survey were as follows: The merits of the group homes were 1)decreasing loneliness of the elderly, 2)providing active and stimulating environments allowing for participation everyday life activities, and 3)lessening the emotional and physical burden on the caring families. Potential obstacles to its introduction in Korea were 1)the difficulty of finding sites to build the group home because of the negative perception of people with disabilities and a NIMBY(Not In My Back Yard) reaction to the construction of it and 2)the economic burden on the caring family. Surprisingly, the guilt factor associated with sending the parents into group homes was not considered as a big obstacle. Referring to results of this study, it is asserted that group homes for the elderly with dementia would be embraced throughout the country if Koreans could have the chance to understand what group homes are.

본 연구의 목적은 유아의 배려행동에 미치는 공감능력과 대인관계형성능력의 영향을 알아봄으로써 유아교육 현장에서 유아의 배려행동을 증진시키기 위한 방안을 탐색하는 것이다. 연구대상은 중소도시 I시의 4,5세 유아 152명이며, 검사도구는 배려행동, 공감능력, 대인관계형성능력의 질문지를 활용하였으며, 교사에 의해 측정되었다. 수집된 자료는 pearson의 적률상관관계를 분석하고 단계적 중다회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과는 첫째, 유아의 공감능력과 배려행동은 관계가 없는 것으로 나타났지만 배려행동 중 가치부여적행동과는 관련이 있는 것으로 나타났으며 특히, 가치부여적행동과 공간능력의 하위영역인 기쁨과 심적부담이 정적 관련이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 유아의 배려행동과 대인관계형성능력 전체는 관계가 있었으며, 특히 사회적 반응성과의 관계가 가장 높게 나타났다. 하위영역에서는 규범적 행동과 사회적반응성, 능동적행동과 지시따르기, 가치부여적행동과 긍정적 상호작용, 정서적행동과 사회적반응성과 가장 높은 정적 관계가 있음을 알 수 있다. 둘째, 배려행동 중정서적행동에는 사회적반응성이 정적인 예측변인이며, 관계형성하기는 부적 예측변인으로 나타났다. 능동적 행동에는 지시따르기가 정적예측 변인이며, 심적부담은 부적 예측변인으로 나타났다. 규범적 행동은 사회적반응성이 정적인 예측변인, 관계형성하기와 심적부담 부적 예측변인인 것으로 나타났다. 가치부여적행동에는 긍정적 상호작용이 정적 예측변인인 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과로 볼 때 유아의 배려행동을 증진시키기 위한 프로그램을 개발하기 위해서는 사회적 반응성, 지시따르기, 긍정적 상호작용을 증진시키는 내용을 포함해야할 것이며, 유아의 관계형성능력과 불안의 요소를 줄이는 내용을 구성해야 할 것으로 판단된다.

Purpose: This study was conducted to test the reliability and validity of Family Burden Questionnaire. Method: The subjects were 156 caregivers of children with acute or chronic disease. To test the reliability, internal consistency using Cronbach's α coefficient was analyzed, and factor analysis, known-group technique, and concurrent validity were utilized for validity test. Result: Cronbach's α coefficient of the tool was .89. Six factors were identified and explained 58.7% of the total variance. Through analysis using known-group technique, the difference of family burden between acute and chronic disease groups was statistically significant(t= -4.09, p<.001). Correlations with mood state, other family burden score by Family Burden Interview Schedule, quality of life, and health symptoms were also relatively high and statistically significant. Conclusion: Family Burden Questionnaire showed a relatively high validity and reliability to measure the burden of caregivers caring patients with various chronic conditions in Korea. For the further study, it may be reconsidered to identify the factor structure of the Family Burden Questionnaire with the various subjects from different age groups.
