Objectives：This study evaluated the association between behavioral characteristics and polymorphisms in DAT1, DRD2, DRD3, and DRD4 genes. Methods：The subjects were 114 neonates, who were born by normal spontaneous vaginal delivery and had no physical problems. The behavioral characteristics were evaluated using Neonatal Behavioral Assessment Scale(NBAS) at $17.8{\pm}7.0$ hours after their birth to minimize environmental influences, and cord blood was used to analyze the gene polymorphisms. Results：In comparison to DAT1 gene 10/10 genotype group(N=93), other genotype group(N=19) showed significantly high NBAS scores on social-interaction, state organization, and state regulation. DRD2 gene Ser311/Cys311, TaqI A, and TaqI B polymorphisms showed no significant differences on NBAS scores when they were grouped by genotypes. DRD3 gene polymorphism and DRD4 gene promotor polymorphism showed no significant difference on NBAS scores when they were grouped by genotypes. In comparison to the short repeats(N=102), long repeats(N=10) in DRD4 gene showed significantly high habituation score of NBAS. Conclusion：These results suggest that the genetic effects of the neonatal behavioral characteristics may be mediated via DAT1 and DRD4 genes.

I think it would be better to rewrite the Korean abstract. To analyze the personal characteristics of the participants and identify their perception of violence using the Q methodology, the scores of 20 parenting parents on 25 Q cards were statistically analyzed using forced normal distribution. There are three factors and from the most agreeable to the most disagreeable statements, they have shown their perception of violence. It was helpful in identifying parents' subjective perceptions and types of child abuse, and it suggested the need to define child abuse so that parents can have a correct perception of child abuse, rather than an abstract perception. In this perspective, the results of this study provide preliminary data for improving the recognition of parenting parents on child abuse.

Objectives：This study was conducted to investigate variables related to children's depression, and also the relationships between children's depression and parents' depression. Methods：258 5th and 6th grade elementary school students in Taegu, and their parents were asked to complete self-report questionnaires including the children's depression Inventory(CDI) and the Beck's depression Inventory(BDI). Correlation analysis, T-test, One-way ANOVA were used for the statistical analysis and the statistically significant level is p<0.05. Results：1) CDI mean for total children is $13.5{\pm}6.77$, BDI mean for their mother is $13.3{\pm}7.25$, and BDI mean for their father is $11.6{\pm}7.03$. 2) There are significant differences in CDI for children variables related to sex, health, school achievement, economic status. 3) Mother's health slightly affect children's depression, but there are no significant differences in CDI for parents' education, religion, father's health. 4) Children's school achievement and economic status among variables related to children affect mother's BDI scores and children's school achievement affect father's BDI scores. 5) For CDI item analysis, there are significant differences in 10 items for children's sex, in 8 items for health, and in 6 items for economic status. Especially, there are significant differences in 20 items among 27 items for children's school achievement. 6) There is significant correlation between parents' BDI scores and children's CDI scores, and especially high correlation to mother for both boys and girls. Conclusion：Children's depression are significantly affected by children's sex, health, school achievement, economic status. And especially school achievement affect grossly children's depression and their mother's depression, so we know that children and their mother have much burden about school achievement. There is high correlation between children's depression and parents'(especially mother) depression. Therefore, these result imply that in the therapy for children's depression, we must include not only children's problems but also parents' depression and parent-children relationship.

Identification and selection the mathematically gifted child must be based on it's definition. So, we have to consider not only IQ or high ability in mathematical problem solving, but also mathematical creativity and mathematical task commitment. Furthermore, we must relate our ideas with the programs to develop each student's hidden potential. This study is focused on the discrimination of the candidates who would like to enter the elementary school level mathematics gifted education program. To fulfill this purpose, I considered the criteria, principles, methods, and tools. Identification is not exactly separate from selection and education. So, it is important to have long-term vision and plan to identify the mathematically gifted students.

This study aims to investigate the effect of four-week oral health promotion program operated through the cooperation between professionals and teachers of community child centers by reflecting characteristics of the centers and to suggest oral health promotion program applicable to community child centers. 4 community child centers has an enrollment of 119. 53 (44.5%) children completing the first and the second questionnaire survey were analyzed in this study. When dental plaque scores of 41 participants joining all of the first- to the fourth- week program and undergoing the dental plaque examination were compared before and after the oral health promotion program for community child center, the plaque control score was improved after the repeated education(p<0.05). Oral health knowledge and awareness of children in community child center were positive improved by oral health promotion program(p<0.05). And number of tooth-brushing a day improved by oral health promotion program. These findings suggest that there was a need for various oral health promotion program development in the community.

This study aims to enhance child care teachers' ability to offer health care by developing an educational program for children's health care and safety. This study was carried out using a one-group pretest-posttest design based on a survey of 400 child care teachers in 3 cities. The educational program for child care teachers consisted of three parts: child health observations, disease management for child and emergency care for children. The educational program was conducted 3 times for 3 hours, totaling 9 hours. The educational program showed better grades of child care teachers in child health observation, emergency care for children, and disease management for children. The finding indicates that more child care teachers will adopt a health care education program to improve the quality of child care service.

The purpose of the present study is to investigate cognitive characteristics of ADHD children by comparing their performances on KEDI-WISC according to age and EEG variables. Subjects were 56 ADHD children who visited Seoul National University Children's Hospital during the period from January, 1988 to March, 1989. Group differences on age and EEG variables were tested by ANOVA, and Hierarchical Cluster Analysis was performed to investigate how ADHD children were classified based on their performances on KEDI-WISC. The results Indicated that ADHD children showed low scores on Coding, Digit Span, and Comprehension subtests, suggesting their attention deficits and impulsivity. ADHD children were clustered Into three groups based on only FSIQ. In post-hoc tests three groups showed different cognitive strengths and weaknesses on KEDI-WISC. Group differences on age were not significant, and abnormal EEG group showed lower PIQ than normal EEG group, suggesting the possibility that their attention deficits were related to neurological factors.

The purpose of this study is to find out the factors that affect the prognosis of conduct disorder in the adolescents. According to the nature or behavioral problems during 6 months after discharge, the good prognosis group(N=37) and the poor prognosis group(N= 36) were selected and scores of Youth Self Report(YSR), MMPI, KWIS were compared between both groups. The following results were obtained. 1) In family environmental factors, no significant difference was found between both groups. 2) In YSL total problem score, score of externalizing syndrome and score of delinquent behavior were significantly higher in the poor prognosis group. 3) In MMPI, no significant difference was found between both groups. 4) In KWIS, total 1.0. did not show significant differences between both groups. Our hypothesis that the prognosis of conduct disorder in adolescent is poorer in cases with higher quantities of problematic behaviors is certified.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of a mother-child shared room on self-confidence in infant care and the practice of breastfeeding by delivering individual education to the mother-child in the shared room. The participants were 50 mothers in the mother-child shared room group and 50 mothers in the mother-child in separate rooms group, all of whom delivered children. The self-confidence in infant care was found to be higher in the mother-child shared room group than the mother-child in separate rooms group. It is necessary to conduct multilateral research into the influential factors on the practice of breastfeeding apart from a variable, namely, the mother-child shared room.

This study was designed to evaluate the emotional and behavioral problems of nocturnal enuresis children(n=72) in general population. And this was compared with normal control children(n=72). The behavioral problems were assessed using a modified child behavior checklist(CBCL) parent form. The results indicated that enuretic children were rated significantly more anxious, fearful, depressed, inattentive, hyperactive, delinquent on the modified CBCL rating when compared to the age-, grade- and sex-matched normal control children. Finally, it was an impressive evidence that there exist many emotional and behavioral problems in children with nocturnal enuresis.
