Purposes: The purposes of this study were to examine knowledge related to child abuse, attitudes toward child abuse, and intention to report child abuse and to identify the predictors of nurses' intention to report child abuse. Method: A descriptive-correlational study was conducted. Participants were 171 nurses who worked in the pediatric or emergency rooms in G city. Self-administered questionnaire was used for data collection. Descriptive statistics, t-test or ANOVA, Pearson correlation, and stepwise multiple regression analysis were used for data analysis. Results: Nurses had a limited knowledge related to child abuse. Nurses had negative attitudes toward child discipline, were inclined to punish the abuser, and had positive attitudes about professional responsibility for reporting child abuse. Nurses perceived difficulty in the actual behavior of reporting child abuse. Nurses' intention to report child abuse was predicted by nurses' attitudes to professional responsibility for reporting child abuse. Conclusions: Based on the findings of this study, educational programs need to be developed, implemented, and evaluated. The conclusion of this study is that supplementary education is needed for multidisciplinary decision making concerning the role of the nurses within the context of child abuse. Implications for nursing practice, education and research are discussed.

Purpose: This study was done to verify the reliability and validity of the Korean version of DMCI in Korean adolescents. Methods: A methodological study design was used with Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ for reliability, and an exploratory factor analysis and contrasted groups approach for construct validity. DMCI was translated into Korean and tested with a sample of 406 adolescents in Korea. The data were analyzed using Cronbach's ${\alpha}$, item correlation with total, principal component factor analysis, and t-test. Results: The translated content of the DMCI was validated by nursing faculty members and translation equivalency was obtained. The Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ of the DMCI simplified with 18 items was .78. The factor analysis revealed three factors explaining 41.5% of total variance and the corresponding factors were self-observation (21.6%), self-judgement (11.4%), and self-confidence (8.6%). The mean score for the DMCI in the aggression group was significantly lower than the non-aggression group. Conclusion: Results of this study suggest that the Korean version of DMCI can used as a reliable and valid measure to assess decision making competency in Korean adolescents.

본 연구는 보육현장의 질적 수준을 향상시키기 위한 목적으로 국공립 어린이집과 민간 어린이집에서 근무하는 보육교사들을 대상으로 보육교사의 효능감이 직무만족에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고자 한다. 보육교사들이 어린이집에서 근무하는데 변화의 잠재력을 보여주고 이들을 발전시킬 기회를 제공하기 위해서는 보육교사의 효능감이 무엇보다 중요하다. 또한 이를 바탕으로 영유아와 학부모에게 양질의 보육서비스를 제공하기 위해서는 보육교사의 직무만족이 필수적이다. 이에 본 연구에서 국공립 어린이집과 민간 어린이집에서 근무하는 보육교사들의 개인적 특성과 효능감을 비교하여 보육교사의 직무만족 향상을 위한 다양한 실천과제를 논의하였다. 연구결과는 첫째, 어린이집 소재지는 국공립 어린이집과 민간 어린이집 보육교사 모두의 직무만족도에 유의한 영향을 미치는 공통요인으로 나타났다. 둘째, 국공립 어린이집 보육교사들은 민간 어린이집 보육교사들과는 달리 가정연계 및 긍정적 학습환경 조성효능감에서 직무만족도에 유의한 영향을 미치고 있었다. 셋째, 국공립 어린이집과 민간 어린이집 보육교사의 직무만족도에 있어 의사결정참여 효능감이 공통적으로 유의한 영향요인으로 나타났다.

The purpose of this study is to understand how the factors related to quality in child care services effect decision making of parents to use such services again, using the parameter of parental satisfaction as a measure. In order to support the researcher's hypothesis, data was gathered from 566 households who send their children to one of the child care facilities in Goyang-Shi, Gyeonggi-Do. The collected data was then analyzed by means of structural equation modeling. The results of the analysis showed that the higher the level of assurance, service tangibility and empathy were, the more the parents were satisfied with the service. The more they were satisfied, the possibility of using the service again increased relatively. In conclusion, various political and practical implications were also addressed and discussed on the basis of these results, with the aim to improve the factors of quality in child care services and parental satisfaction.

This qualitative study attempts to analyze the separation experiences of wild geese families from a social exchange perspective. The participants of this study were 16 mothers who lived apart from their partners for the purpose of educating their offspring. To collect data, in-depth interviews were conducted with the mothers about the decision-making process and the separation experiences. The results showed that there was a unique educational factor in Korea that affected wild geese families' decision on family separation. Geese families had to face psychological inconvenience caused by negative eyes from society. In addition, the fathers suffered loneliness and had difficulties in doing household chores, and the mothers experienced an overload of child parenting. On the other hand, emotional relationship between the husband and wife was enhanced, and the friendly relationship between a mother and her children was built. The biggest reward from the wild geese families turned out to be the educational achievement of their children.
