The purpose of this study was to examine the maintenance of an evaluation accreditation indicator according to child care center teachers' participation in decision making. The subjects of this study were 139 teachers from 12 accredited national, public, private, and corporate child care centers in Seoul and North Gyeongsang Province. The TIP-2 (Teacher Involvement and Participation Scale V.2) and Accreditation Indicator for Child Care Centers were used to measure teachers' participation in decision making and accreditation indicator maintenance. Frequency, mean, standard deviation, one-way ANOVA and scheffe test were used for data analyses. The results revealed that the teachers who rated middle and high level in terms of their participation in decision-making showed higher levels of maintenance of the evaluation accreditation indicator than those with low levels of participation. This finding suggests that teachers' participation in decision making is an important factor for maintaining the quality of child care centers.

This study analyzes how governmental financial support of child care affects the participation of married women in the labor market in Korea. This dynamic analysis used data gathered over four years via the fifth to the eighth Korea Welfare Panel Studies (KWPS). The major results are as follows. First, child care allowance has a negative effect on the participation of married women in the labour market. Providing cash for child care seems to decrease women's labour market participation by cementing the role of women as the primary child care providers in the household. Second, the support for families, used by child care facilities, is found to increase the probability of married women working either part-time or full-time, thereby decreasing the burden on household budgets caused by child care costs. In conclusion, governmental policy-based child care benefits, used by child care centers, should be continued so that married women may participate in the labour market while raising their children.

The Child Care Program Observation Scale(Rhee et at., 2003) was employed to observe the quality of the centers. Information on teachers' participation in play was collected by 20 units of observation for each teacher using a rating scale developed by the author. Children's behaviors were observed with time sampling method in 12 categories of play behaviors based on Social and Cognitive Play Scales(Rubin et al., 1978).

본 연구는 아동보호사업에 적용될 수 있는 사회구성주의적 가치에 근거하여 우리나라 아동보호사업의 문제점과 함의를 도출하고자 이루어졌다. 연구문제는 첫째, 아동보호사업에 적용될 수 있는 사회구성주의적 가치를 정리하고, 둘째, 외국의 아동보호사업에서 사회구성주의적 가치를 검토하였으며, 셋째, 사회구성주의적 관점에 근거하여 우리나라의 아동보호사업과 외국의 아동보호사업에 대한 차이와 함의를 제시하고자 하였다. 이러한 연구문제와 관련한 연구의 구성은 다음과 같다. 먼저, 국내외 문헌연구를 통하여 아동보호사업에 적용될 수 있는 사회구성주의적 가치로서 협상과 참여를 도출하였으며, 다른 나라의 아동보호사업에서 참여와 협상의 방법을 법적 제도적 기반 중심으로 평가하였다. 마지막으로, 초점집단토론(focus group interview)을 중심으로 아동보호사업에서 참여와 협상을 통해 민주적 관계의 재구성을 시도해야 한다는 것, 학대자의 참여와 협상을 강제할 법적 근거가 부족한 점, 아동이 협상당사자로 인정받지 못하고 있는 문제, 아동보호와 관련한 법 개정 방향 등을 토론하였다. 이와 같은 내용을 바탕으로 우리나라 아동보호사업에 대한 제언을 제시하였다.

This study examined the effects of paternal participation in child care and social support on planning for a second childbirth, focusing on the mediating effect of the mother's parenting stress. The 887 subjects studied in this paper were mothers who have a first child, and were selected from a sample of the 2nd Panel Study of Korean Children(PSKC) by the Korea Institute of Child Care and Education(KICCE), conducted in 2009. Data was analyzed using a Structural Equation Model(SEM) to identify a structure and relationships among factors. The significance of indirect effects to test the mediating effect of maternal parenting stress was identified via bootstrapping. Results indicated that maternal parenting stress partially mediated the relationship between the father's participation in child care and planning for a second childbirth, and absolutely mediated the relationship between social support and planning for a second childbirth. The findings reveal the importance of reducing parenting stress, given its substantial impact on planning for a second childbirth.
