Objectives: The purpose of this study was to examine the associations of childbirth, breastfeeding, and their interaction with breast cancer (BC) risk reduction, and to evaluate the heterogeneity in the BC risk reduction effects of these factors by menopause, hormone receptor (HR) status, and pathological subtype. Methods: BC patients aged 40+ from the Korean Breast Cancer Registry in 2004-2012 and controls from the Health Examinee cohort participants were included in this study after 1:1 matching (12 889 pairs) by age and enrollment year. BC risk according to childbirth, breast-feeding, and their interaction was calculated in logistic regression models using odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results: BC risk decreased with childbirth (3+ childbirths relative to 1 childbirth: OR, 0.66; 95% CI, 0.56 to 0.78 and OR, 0.80; 95% CI, 0.68 to 0.95 in postmenopausal and premenopausal women, respectively); and the degree of risk reduction by the number of children was heterogeneous according to menopausal status (p-heterogeneity=0.04), HR status (p-heterogeneity<0.001), and pathological subtype (p-heterogeneity<0.001); whereas breastfeeding for 1-12 months showed a heterogeneous association with BC risk according to menopausal status, with risk reduction only in premenopausal women (p-heterogeneity<0.05). The combination of 2 more childbirths and breastfeeding for ${\geq}13$ months had a much stronger BC risk reduction of 49% (OR, 0.51; 95% CI, 0.45 to 0.58). Conclusions: This study suggests that the combination of longer breastfeeding and more childbirths reduces BC risk more strongly, and that women who experience both 2 or more childbirths and breastfeed for ${\geq}13$ months can reduce their BC risk by about 50%.

국가의 기업가정신은 혁신을 추구하고 실패 위험을 감수하며 진취적으로 대응하여 기회를 선도하려는 보편적인 국민 개인들의 행동성향의 정도로서 국가 성장 잠재력의 원천이 될 수 있다. 특히 저성장이 고착화되고 있는 한국의 경제상황에서는 전체 국민의 창업 및 경제활동참여를 활성화시킬 수 있도록 남성에 비해 상대적으로 낮은 수준으로 나타나는 여성의 기업가정신을 제고시켜야 할 필요성이 제기되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 단순히 기업가정신 수준의 성별 차이 자체에 주목하는 것이 아닌 기업가정신의 성별 차이를 발생시키는 사회적 맥락의 숨겨진 영향력에 초점을 두었다. 구체적으로 본 연구는 성별과 기업가정신 수준 간 관계에 있어 한국의 사회적 맥락을 반영하는 요인인 출산의 조절효과를 검증하였다. 실증분석결과에 따르면, 성별 및 출산의 독립적인 효과 이외에 이들 변수들의 상호작용 효과를 포함하여 검증한 모형에서는 성별 효과가 사라진 반면, 출산 변수와 성별 및 출산의 상호작용 변수의 효과가 통계적으로 유의하게 나타났다. 또한 성별 및 출산여부를 바탕으로 네가지 유형의 처리집단을 생성하여 기업가정신의 차이를 검증한 추가분석결과에 따르면, '여성 및 출산' 집단이 다른 모든 집단에 비해 기업가정신이 유의하게 낮았으며, 나머지 처리집단들 간 차이는 통계적으로 유의하지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 결과는 일반적으로 관찰되는 성별 간 기업가정신 수준의 차이에 있어서는 남녀의 고유한 특성 자체가 아닌 자녀출산 및 육아부담을 여성이 전적으로 감당하는 한국의 사회적 맥락 효과가 중첩되어 있음을 의미하고 있다. 본 연구는 여성의 기업가적 행동 성향을 억제하는 한국의 사회적 맥락을 고려함으로서 여성의 창업 또는 경제활동참여 활성화를 촉진할 수 있는 실효성 있는 정책 방안 마련을 위한 시사점을 제시하고 있다.

This study analyzes the contents of low birthrate measures by the government and their effectiveness. The discussion on the measures being promoted by the government is conducted by considering the analysis on the cause of low birthrates, introduction of overseas policies and government policy propositions, etc. The evaluation on effectiveness is conducted by considering the recognition of the policies by women who are the subject of childbirth and preceding studies. Low birth rates are not the problem of an individual anymore, but a task that the whole of society has to resolve. The comprehensive measures should be made including the elements that influence birth rate such as reducing the cost of raising a child, creating a favorable environment in society and worksite, and improving the nurturing environment, etc.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the predictors between the early and late postpartum period in parturient women. Methods: The Subjects were 399 healthy postpartum women who visited the obstetric clinic at 5 hospitals for a routine check up after childbirth. They were divided into two groups: one was in the early postpartum period, the first three weeks after childbirth (n=107), the other was in the late postpartum period, four to six weeks after childbirth (n=292). The data were collected by using a self-report questionnaire from July to September, 2006. The data were analyzed with the SPSS 12.0 Win program. Results: There were significant statistical differences in age and parity between the two groups. Postpartum fatigue was significantly predicted by postpartum depression and age in the early period, and postpartum depression, sleep satisfaction, and childcare stress in the late period. The mean scores of childcare stress and perceived infant difficulty in the late period were significantly higher than those of the early postpartum period. Conclusion: Postpartum depression was the most important predictor of postpartum fatigue regardless of the postpartum period. In addition, especially in the late period, sleep satisfaction and childcare stress were significant predictors of postpartum fatigue. Based on these results, primary nursing interventions for reducing postpartum fatigue should focus on postpartum depression management, and nursing interventions for increasing sleep satisfaction and decreasing childcare stress would be helpful for management of postpartum fatigue in parturient women in the late period.

The purposes of this study were to identify and compared the selection conditions of spouses and the perceptions of marriage and childbirth by sex. Moreover, this study tried to find the number of child the study subjects want to have in their marriage and what factors were important for whether they have no or one child or more than two children. The study subjects were college students who were belong to 6 health care related departments selected randomly from all health care related departments in one metropolitan area. In the selection conditions as their spouses, they ranked 'love', 'personality' and 'wealthiness' as important factors in order. Male ranked females' employment as 10th but female ranked it 5th. In conclusion, there were concordances and dis-concordances on the perceptions of marriage and child birth by sex. Understanding these factors caused by gender roles in our society could contribute to making new policies for promoting marriage rate in younger age and overcoming the problems of low birth rates by giving more specific data to policy makers for increasing child birth rate.

To develop policies regarding fertility and pregnancy that will be effective in preventing further declines in fertility rates in the context present-day Korea, current policies in Japan were analyzed and compared with those now being implemented in Korea. This study was structured to involve (a) comparison of maternal health projects in Korea and Japan, and (b) comparison of infertility support policies based in regional cities in Korea and Japan. Korea's Health Plan 2030 emphasizes strengthening healthcare for high-risk pregnant women, expanding investments to benefit vulnerable groups, and establishing a support system for infertile couples. In Japan, government programs involving treatment targeting infertility specifically were implemented nationwide in 2006. Wide dissemination of accurate knowledge related to pregnancy is emphasized. Also, counseling centers specializing in infertility were established by 67 local governments. We have confirmed that Korean policies include decentralization, while Japan is implementing the central government's infertility policy uniformly in all regions. Japan also adjusted its policy out of concern that problems related to infertility and childbirth will worsen due to the social disaster of COVID-19. The results indicate that providing additional support for psychological counseling may be preferable to increasing the number of in-vitro fertilization procedures. The physical burden on women may be minimized by benchmarking policies in Japan. Step-by-step application of these procedures should be systematically supported to achieve the best results.

보건복지부가 실시한 2017년 장애인 실태조사에 의하면 여성장애인이 가장 많이 이용하는 서비스 기관이 장애인복지관으로 조사되었다. 이는 여성장애인의 모성권 보장을 위한 장애인복지관의 역할이 중요함을 의미한다. 그러나 장애인복지실천 현장에서 모성권 보장을 위한 프로그램은 미비한 수준이며, 실태조사 역시 파악되지 않고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구는 장애인복지관이 제공해야 할 모성권 관련 프로그램 필요성의 근거를 제시하기 위해 첫째, 보건복지부의 2017년 장애인실태조사 결과를 바탕으로, 문헌자료를 추가하여 여성장애인의 모성권 관련 애로사항과 필요한 서비스를 분석하고 둘째, 모성권을 보장해야 하는 법적 근거와 법적근거에 기반한 현존하는 프로그램 현황을 파악하고자 하였다. 연구결과 법적인 근거에 기반한 모성권 관련 프로그램은 존재하고 있으나 여성장애인이 경험하는 모성권 관련 애로사항과 이를 해결 할 수 있는 실질적 지원서비스는 미비한 수준으로 파악되었다. 따라서 지역거점의 장애인 복지관은 성인지적 관점을 바탕으로 여성장애인의 모성권 확립을 위한 중심적 역할로서 임신, 출산, 양육에 대한 기초상식 정보제공을 위한 매뉴얼 개발, 출산관련 상담서비스 지원, 자조모임 활성화 추진, 가족을 위한 개별화된 프로그램, 의료기관 연계, 사례관리 지원 등의 구체적인 서비스 지원을 제공해야 할 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to conduct a family impact analysis to examine the effects of policies to lower fertility in families in Korea. Data were collected from a purposive sample of three groups of government officials, family scholars, and staff at family-related organizations and associations. 105 family policy professionals responded to the self-report questionnaire. The family impact analysis scale was formulated by the researcher based on Ooms'(1995)'A checklist for assessing the impact of policies on families' and Lawson & Lawson's(2001)'An example on family impact analysis checklist or inventory.' The results showed there were eight factors in the family impact analysis on the policies to low fertility in Korea; strengthening family membership and stability; providing various convenient public services; recognizing family interdependence; recognizing the efficiency of implementing policies and support of vulnerable families; strengthening the family function of childbirth; recognizing family relationships; preventing family problems and empowering families; and recognizing family diversity. The conclusions and implications of these findings were also discussed.
