Social skills and behavior problems of 90 4- and 5-year-old children were analyzed by children's negative emotionality(sadness, anger, and fear). The instrument for measurement of social skills(cooperation, self-control, assertion, and responsibility) was the Preschool Level of the Korean Version of the Social Skills Rating System(Suh, Mee-Ock, 2004). Measures of behavior problems included internalizing(anxiety, immaturity, withdrawal, physical symptoms) and externalizing(hyperactivity, aggression) problems. Results showed that girls were higher in negative emotionality(sadness) than boys, and 5-year-olds were higher in social skills than 4-year-olds. Children with lower levels of negative emotionality were higher in social skills and lower in behavior problems than children with higher levels of negative emotionality.

This study investigates the effects of children's social relationships and psychological characteristics on their behavior problems. Behavior problems comprise violations of norms, bullying, and deviant behavior in the cyberspace. A data set of 2949 Korean children in their 4th grade is analyzed to yield three main results. First, variables such as contact with delinquent friends, aggressiveness, stress of appearance complex, gender, and depression have significant effects on violations of norms. Children who have more delinquent friends, higher level of aggressiveness, stress of appearance complex, or depression report more violations of norms. Second, delinquent friends, stress of peer relationship, aggressiveness, stress of appearance complex, gender, parents' violent attitudes toward children, and negative self-image are turned out to be important variables predicting bullying. Children with more delinquent friends, higher level of stress, higher level of aggressiveness, or lower self-image are more likely to experience bullying. Children who perceive their parents to be violent show more bullying experience. Third, each of aggressiveness, delinquent friends, stress of appearance complex, gender, relationship with teacher, and family income has significant effect on deviant behavior in cyberspace. Children with higher level of aggressiveness, more delinquent friends, stress of appearance complex, or negative impression of teacher are more likely to deviate in cyberspace. Children from higher income families report more deviant behavior in cyberspace. Boys show more experiences in every category of behavior problems than girls.

Purpose: The study investigated the relationships between key variables, including the level of parenting knowledge, acculturative stress, depression, and the strengths and difficulties associated with their children's emotions and behavior, among North Korean refugee mothers who faced the challenging task of adapting to Korean society while raising their children. Methods: A descriptive study design was used. Data were collected from 130 North Korean refugee mothers between September and November 2023. Results: The participants had very limited parenting knowledge, and 82.3% of them scored 21 or higher on the depression scale used in community epidemiological studies. Higher levels of parenting knowledge and lower levels of depression were associated with lower levels of acculturative stress. Moreover, higher levels of depression were associated with more emotional and behavioral difficulties in children. Maternal depression, age, and employment status were identified as factors that influenced emotional and behavioral problems in preschool-aged children. Conclusion: These findings underscore the importance of providing parent education and mental health support programs for North Korean refugee families in order to improve parents' parenting skills and emotional well-being.

The purpose of study was to investigate internal and external problem behavior according to types of multiple-attachments exhibited to both mothers and teachers. The subjects were 120 preschool children (between 4 to, -5 years old), their mothers and teachers. The attachment classification of these 120 preschoolers was evaluated by an attachment Q-set. Data was statistically analyzed by means of one-way ANOVA, and the Duncan test with the SPSS Win 13.0 program. Our results were as follows, Firstly, significant differences were observed in the internal problem behavior according to types of multiple-attachments. Second, significant differences were also observed in the external problem behavior according to types of multiple-attachments. This study suggests that secure attachment relationships with teachers may compensate for insecure relationships with mothers.

The purpose of the present research was to study the self-regulation of the child during mother child interaction. That is. this study focused on how mothers regulated children's problem solving efforts before children began to function as independent agents capable of self-regulation. The emphasis was on the "regulation-by-others" that preceded "self-regulation". The subjects of this study were 30 mother-child dyads. The dyads were divided into 3 groups of 10 dyads each on the basis of the child's age (2, 3, and 4 years of age). The instrument used for this study was the "truck puzzle" devised by Wertsch, McNamee, Mclane and Budwig (1980). The problem solving task in this study required the dyad to make a puzzle in accordance with the model puzzle. The interaction of 30 mother-child dyads was observed and analyzed flH verbal and non-verbal behavior used by the mother to regulate the child's behavior. One-way ANOVA, Scheffe post hoc comparision and Spearman's rank-difference correlation were used for the statistical analysis of the data. The results revealed that there were significant age trends in regulation-by-others and self regulation in joint cognitive activity; that is, there were developmental transitions from regulation by-others to self-regulation in connection with crucial strategic behavior (looking at the model). Significant differences were found in mothers' interventions after children's gaze at the model in joint cognitive activity; that is, the mean proportion of mothers' intervention for the 2-year-old group was the highest and that of the 4-year-old group was the lowest. There were no significant age-related differences in mothers' use of referential perspectives in joint cognitive activity. Children's regulation- by-others increased and children's self-regulation decreased in proportion to mothers' use of referential perspectives.

In this study, the characteristics and patterns of family problems were explored. What constituted family problems, and how those evolved over the period of drastic changes in the Korean society were examined, by analyzing articles published from the 1940s to the 1980s in the four major national newspapers in Korea. A total of 6542 articles related to family problems in the four newspapers, Chosun, Dong-A, Kyunghyang, and Seoul, were used for the content analysis of this study. The main categories of family problems were classified as poverty, marital issues, issues related to children and adolescents, elderly issues, problems in the family as an institution, and the so-called family-lag problem. Each of these categories consisted of several subcategories: The poverty-related problems included the problems caused by difficulty in making a living and instability of living, for example. The marital issues category consisted of conflicts between the couple, unfaithful spouses, domestic violence, divorce, and so on. Issues related to children and adolescents included juvenile delinquency, difficulty in bringing up children, child abuse, single motherhood, and underage household heads, for example. The elderly issues included the anxiety over the aging society, support for the elderly, conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, alienation of the elderly, etc. Problems in the family as an institution consisted of the legal issues in such areas as marriage, succession of the family head, and adoption. Lastly, the family-lag problem included confusion over family values, and conflict caused by the inconsistency between consciousness and actual behavior related to the family or family crisis. From the 1940s to the 1980s, family-lag was the most common problem (26.2% of the total articles), followed by issues related to children and adolescents (23.1%), poverty (16.2%), marital issues (15.9%), elderly issues (12.4%), and problems in the family as an institution (6.0%). During the 1940s and the 1950s, poverty was a prominent problem, and in the 1960s, issues related to children and adolescents were most commonly addressed in the articles. In the 1970s and the 1980s, the family-lag problem was the most frequently addressed.

본 연구는 아동이 인지한 가정의 경제적 곤란과 가족갈등 스트레스가 문제행동과 학교적응에 미치는 영향을 아동의 스트레스와 대처방식 간의 상호작용에 관심을 두고 접근하였다. 자료는 C도에 거주하는 12세-15세의 아동 1,200명에 대한 설문조사를 통해 수집, 최종적으로 1,115부를 통계분석하였다. 자료분석결과, 아동의 문제행동과 학교적응에 차이를 가져오는 일반적 특성은 아동의 성, 학년과 성적이 대표적이었고, 가족유형에 따른 차이는 없었다. 경제적 곤란과 가족갈등 스트레스는 적응에 유의한 변수로 나타났으나 성에 따라 차이가 있어 남아는 내 외현화 문제행동에 경제적 곤란과 가족갈등이 영향을 미쳤으나 여아의 내재화 문제행동에는 경제적 곤란의 영향력은 유의하지 않았다. 상호작용에서도 남아의 경우 모든 적응문제에 스트레스 변인과 대처방식의 상호작용효과가 유의하였으며, 여아의 경우에는 공격성, 비행 및 불안 우울에서만 상호작용효과가 유의하게 나타났다. 아동의 스트레스 대처방식이 부적응 예방 프로그램의 한 영역으로서 연구 개발될 필요성이 논의되었다.

본 연구의 목적은 드림스타트 사업에 참여한 저소득층 가정 양육자의 양육스트레스와 아동의 문제행동 간의 상호 인과적 관계를 확인하는 것이다. 연구 대상은 드림스타트 사업에 참여한 아동과 양육자이며, 2015년에 초등학교 1학년인 아동과 양육자를 3년 간 추적 조사하여 2017년까지 참여한 대상자의 자료를 반복 측정 하였다. 연구 방법은 양육자의 양육스트레스와 아동의 문제행동 간의 종단적 발달에 적용하는 아동 효과 및 양육자 효과를 검증하기 위해 자귀회귀교차지연효과모형을 적용하였다. 연구 결과 양육자의 양육스트레스와 아동의 문제행동의 자기회귀 계수가 모두 유의미하여 3년에 걸친 연구기간 동안 높은 수준의 안정성이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 시간의 흐름에 따라 양육스트레스는 비슷한 수준을 유지하고 있음을 의미한다. 또한 양육자의 양육스트레스와 아동의 문제행동 간 인과관계의 원인은 주로 양육자 효과로 설명 되었다. 즉 양육자의 양육스트레스로 인해 아동의 문제행동이 나타나는 것이다. 위의 결과들을 통해 저소득층 가정은 경제적 압박감으로 인해 양육자의 양육스트레스가 가중되고 누적되어 자녀와의 부정적인 상호작용으로 이어져 결국 아동의 문제행동으로 이어질 수 있음을 확인하였다. 저소득층 가정의 누적된 양육스트레스를 경감하기 위해 다양한 양육자의 심리적 지원 방안이 강화되어야 함을 제언하였다.
