Objectives: Screen time refers to the time spent using screen media, such as televisions, smartphones, computers, or tablets. Excessive exposure to screen media has been reported to negatively impact young children's health and development, including overweight, short sleep duration, and language delays. This study examined the association of screen time and mealtime media use with dietary behaviors among preschool children. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted on parents of children aged three to five years using the online questionnaires of the Nutrition Quotient for Preschoolers (NQ-P) and the Dietary Screening Test (DST). Data from 261 children's parents were analyzed. Results: Of the 261 children, 96.9% used screen media, 55.6% used screen media for two hours or more daily, and 30.7% were exposed to screen media during meals. The NQ-P scores were significantly lower in the children with longer screen time and mealtime media use. Children who used screen media for two hours or more and those exposed to screen media during meals consumed kimchi less frequently and confectionery and sugar-sweetened beverages more frequently than children who used less than two hours and were not exposed to screen media during meals. In addition, they were more likely to be picky about food, refuse to eat, and less likely to feed themselves than children with shorter screen time and no mealtime media use. Conclusions: This study reported an association between unhealthy dietary behaviors, feeding difficulties, and screen time and mealtime media use among preschool children. Further research should explore effective strategies for reducing children's screen time.

This study was conducted to investigate how child-care teachers participate, practice mealtime instruction, and perceive difficulties in food service, focusing on comparison between the teachers caring two different age groups: children younger than three years (Younger Group) and those three years or older (Older Group). Questionnaires were distributed to 151 child-care centers in Kwanak-gu, Seoul, Korea during December, 2011. Only the data from 25 child-care centers, where two respective teachers in charge of Younger Group and Older Group completed the questionnaires, were analyzed. The results showed that there was no difference in terms of child-care teachers' participation in food service practice between the two groups, except for serving method; 'Pre-plated' serving was used significantly more often in Younger Group, whereas 'Line-up' serving was used in Older Group. Approximately, three quarters of the child-care centers had policies or guidelines on mealtime instruction. During mealtime, child-care teachers tended to use frequently verbal instructions such as "sit up straight when you eat" about eating manner, "don't be picky with your food" about eating habit, and "wash your hands before eating" about eating procedure in both the groups. There was no statistically significant difference regarding child-care teachers' perceived difficulties in food service between the two groups. These results indicated that child-care teachers' participation and mealtime instruction in food service did not differ between the two age groups, although children's development of digestion and eating skill differed by age. Therefore, training should be provided to child-care teachers about food service practices and mealtime instruction appropriate to children's age.

The author extracted 300 children as a control group and 300 children as an observation group from Korean primary school children which were aged 9 to 11, and surveyed the dental caries experience and oral hygiene condition. Children in a control group had not been served wit school meal. On the other hand, children in an observation group were served with school meal. The average number of caries experienced permanent teeth per mouth and the oral hygiene indices were calculated from the collected data and compared with each other. The obtained results were as follows. 1. The DMFT rate was 15.93% in the observation group and 10.33% in the control group. 2. The Oral Hygiene Index was 1.04 in the observation group and 1.60 in the control group. 3. It couldn't be made a decision that school meal service was direct cause to increase the occurrence of dental caries on the permanent teeth in Korean primary school children.

The purpose of this study was to detect early children with hyperactivity which is one of the symptoms of Attention Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). This study used two methods: K-CBCL and observation of children's behavior. K-CBCL was done online by parents at home. For observation of children's behavior, the school asked children to wear a 3-axis accelerometer on their wrists. The data from K-CBCL and 3-axis accelerometer were analyzed and clustered to separate hypersensitive children from ordinary children. This experiment confirmed that 3-axis accelerometer which is one of Ubiquitous techniques and the K-CBCL questionnaire were helpful for detection of hypersensitive children.

본 연구는 '자녀가 있는 취업여성의 후속자녀 출산의도'가 어떠한 요인의 영향을 받으며, 어떠한 경로로 결정되는지를 규명하기 위한 연구이다. 본 연구는 특히 '가치관적 요인'의 영향력에 주목하여 '자녀가치관'을 특성에 따라 '개인주의적 자녀가치관'과 '집단주의적 자녀가치관'으로 구분하고 이외 주요 변수들과의 관계를 살펴볼 수 있는 연구 모형을 설정하였다. 본 연구를 통해 다음과 같은 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 첫째, 본 연구에서 제안한 모형은 측정모형분석과 구조모형 분석을 통해 유자녀 취업여성의 후속출산의도를 설명하기에 적합한 모형인 것으로 확인되었다. 둘째, 우리나라에서 자녀가 하나 있는 취업여성의 후속자녀를 출산하고자 하는 의도는 여성의 '자녀가치관'에 의해 직접적으로 가장 강하게 예측될 수 있었다. 셋째, 경제적 자원과 공·사적 서비스 자원은 다른 요인을 매개하여 간접적으로 개인의 출산의도에 영향을 미치는 요인인 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 경제적 자원은 공·사적 서비스 자원 경험 수준에 영향을 미치고 있었다. 다섯째, 개인주의적 자녀가치관과 집단주의적 자녀가치관은 일-가정의 양립과 관련된 여성의 환경 조건에 의해 영향을 받아 형성·변화될 수 있는 요인인 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 근거로 본 연구에서는 취업여성의 출산율 고양을 위해서는 이들의 일-가정 양립을 둘러싼 환경 조건의 변화를 통해 긍정적 자녀가치관을 형성하는 것이 중요함을 제안하였다.

본 연구는 아동·청소년 관련 시설 및 기관을 이용하는 초, 중, 고 학생들의 이용 실태와 중복 이용 경험을 분석하여, 효과적인 아동·청소년 서비스 전달체계를 제안하기 위한 목적을 지니고 있다. 이를 위해, 아동과 청소년이 이용하는 공공 서비스 전달체계를 중심으로 초, 중, 고 학교급별 차이를 통계 분석과 네트워크 분석방법을 활용하여 분석하였다. 주요 연구결과에 따르면, 일반 시설(기관) 이용율에서 학교급별 차이가 나타난 곳은 주민자치센터, 청소년수련관(수련원), 건강가정지원센터, 보건소, 시청·도청, 군청·구청, 교육청이었다. 복지 시설(기관) 중에서는 위(Wee)센터, 위(Wee) 스쿨, 지역아동센터에서 학교급별 차이가 나타났다. 네트워크 연결 중심성 분석에서는 초등학생은 보건소, 중학생은 청소년 수련관, 고등학생은 주민자치센터가 가장 높게 나타나, 자체 및 중복 이용자 수가 가장 높은 것으로 조사되었다. Concor를 이용한 구획화 결과에서도 동일한 시설(기관)이라도 학교급에 따라 서로 다른 기관 간 연계가 이루어지고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과를 토대로 향후 아동·청소년 서비스 전달체계의 질적 개선을 위해서, 생애주기적 특성을 고려한 통합 게이트웨이 구축과 개인별 시설(기관) 이용 데이터베이스 개발을 제안하였다.

In recent years, the population of children has been declining in Korea. Moreover, the phenomenon of elementary school closures is on the rise, particularly in non-urban and some new city areas, highlighting the need for school buses for children. Despite the mandatory safety features in place, accidents involving school buses for children are on the rise, underscoring the need for improvement in the safety of these vehicles. While various studies have been conducted to enhance the safety of children during their school commute, there has been a notable gap in research analyzing the school commuting environment concerning the vehicle safety of these buses. Hence, this study aims to develop a set of service evaluation criteria for school bus routes, considering vehicle safety through the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). By conducting a survey to gather information on the current status of school buses for children and through questionnaires targeting stakeholders in the school bus sector, the study analyzed requirements and operating conditions. These results were used to select evaluation criteria and structure the hierarchy based on the external and internal aspects of school bus services. Through AHP surveys conducted based on the designed criteria, experts identified safety as the most crucial aspect, with a specific emphasis on Vehicle Safety. Using these developed service evaluation criteria, the study plans to identify service-vulnerable routes through a real route analysis and recommend improvements, with the ultimate goal of creating a safe and convenient school commuting environment for children.
