Objective: Improvements in diet can decrease the cancer rates. The aim of the present study was to determine the relationships between self-perception of diet quality and personality, impulsiveness, stress, coping strategy, sense of coherence, self-efficacy, and social support. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted using a multiple-stratified random sampling method based on the Korea Census of 2007. In October 2009, investigators conducted 15-minute face-to-face interviews with 1,530 South Korean volunteers who ranged from 30 to 69 years of age without a history of cancer. Results: Respondents were more likely to perceive that they consumed a healthy diet if they were older than 50 years, lived with a partner, had a monthly family income greater than $4,000 USD, had a low perceived risk of cancer, consumed less alcohol, exercised regularly, had a less agreeable or conscientious personality, had low stress levels, had a high sense of coherence or self-efficacy, and had ample social support. Conclusion: Psychosocial factors, such as personality, stress, sense of coherence, self-efficacy, and social support, are associated with the self-perception of diet quality. Analysis of the factors that contribute to a perceived healthy diet could assist with the design of educational campaigns.

The purpose of this study is to determine what factors affect the marital life of multicultural families. In-depth interviews were conducted with 15 immigrated females and their husbands living in Yongsan-Gu, Seoul, Korea, by open-ended questionnaire. The interviews took place on September 11, 2008, and October 11, 2008. The major findings can be summarized as follows: Through the content analysis of the informants' responses, three major factors were found to influence the successful adjustment of the married female immigrants: personal factors, familial support, and social support systems. Among the personal factors, the self-esteem of the married couples is relatively high. However, the factor of the economic living conditions of the multicultural families indicates some difficulty. Finally, considering the level of self-development of the female immigrants' husbands, an older husband was viewed more negatively than a younger one. In terms of familial support, the most important factor affecting the adjustment of a foreign wife is the trust of her husband and her relationship with the husband's family. Accordingly, educational programs are necessary to promote multicultural understanding and the couples' relations. In social support systems, the female immigrants experienced neglect, as far as multicultural prejudice in society. Therefore, in order to revitalize the self-esteem of immigrants, we need to reach out to multicultural families. The center for support of multicultural families provides opportunities to find training, upgrade education for employment, and expand their social network. In addition, it is necessary for the national public relations industry to recognize improvements regarding the adjustment of multicultural families.

This study was conducted to make a policy proposal for Korean grandparent-grandchildren families, analyzing what adversities adolescent grandchildren suffer when living in a grandparent-grandchild family, the types of Korean families and how family resilience appears as family power. In order to conduct this study, 20 consenting adolescents were selected for an interview from grandparent-grandchildren families recommended by the U City Healthy Family Support Center. This study suggests the following conclusions. First, we discussed divorce, death, financial bankruptcy related stress, economic difficulties in the present family, accidents involving family members of a grandparent-grandchild family, grandparents' serious disease, death, family conflicts and family comparisons with friends. Second, in the domain of family resilience, desire to maintain the family appeared as a Korean value. In addition, efforts to bond as an emotional family and grandchildren's attitudes of gratitude to grandparents are also expressed. However, family conversation appears weak due to the generation gap between adolescents and grandparents or complications from family stress. Third, the resilience in the family organization appeared weak since there are relatively insufficient socio-economic resources to support the family. This study makes several suggestions for family policies and shows the necessity to develop policies that reflect the needs of grandchildren and grandparents.

This study focused on the ecological variables that affect adolescents' runway impulse. For the organisms, self-esteem, impulse control, school achievement and runway experience, for the microsystems, family, school and peer environment, for the mesosystems, family-peer relationships and family-school relationships, and for the exosystem, neighborhood environment were included. The sample consisted of 651 eleventh grade adolescents. Instruments were the Runway Impulse Scale(Nam, 2001) and Index of organisms, microsystems, mesosystems, and exosystem variables. Statistics and methods used for the analysis were Cronbach's alpha, frequency, percentage, t-test, Pearson's correlation and multiple Regression. Several major results were found from the analysis. First, no sex difference was found in adolescents' runway impulse. Second, runway impulse of male and female adolescents showed positive correlations with runway experience, parental marital conflict, dissatisfactions of school life and exposure to friends with problems behavior but negative correlations with self-esteem, impulse control, school achievement, parental support and supervision, teacher support, family-peer relationships and neighborhood environment. Female adolescents' runway impulse stowed negative correlations with family-school relationships. Third, the most important variable predicting male adolescents' runway impulse was exposure to friends with problems behavior, the most important variable for female was self-esteem.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of the children's school adjustment on family strength, social support and parental efficacy according to their parents perception and to submit basic material to recognize the necessity of strengthening parental capability for enhancing children's adaptation to school. The summary of the results of the study was as below. All of the subjects who recognized family strength, social support and parental efficacy according to their parents perception showed middle score over 3. The parents who recognized family strength and parental efficacy were examined as the factors which influence children's adjustment to school. These showed that children's adjustment to school is better when parents recognized that family strength is higher, and when parents recognized that parental efficacy is higher. But when parents recognized social support, no meaningful influence appeared, so if the parents who are first social supporters of school-aged children understand the importance of children's adjustment to school, which has a high adaptability with high social support, and recognize the difference of the influence of social support on the children's adjustment to school and home, it could be the factor to reduce children's adjustment problems at school.

This study aims to investigate the process of family distress to family crisis in multi-cultural families based on Hill's ABCX model. For this study, the qualitative study with depth interview was conducted with 8 multi-cultural families(e.g. husband, wife, child and elderly parent). The depth interview contents were marriage process, family relation or family interactions, social adaptation process, and social services needs. Results showed the followings: First, multi-cultural families had multiple distressors so that these distressors made multi-cultural families vulnerable to family crisis. Second, Hill's ABCX model explained the process of family distress to family crisis in the multi-cultural families in that they had few resources(both individual resources and family resources) and even worse they had negative cognitions about their own multi-cultural family systems. This situation made them difficult to solve their problems and to cope with their distressors. Third, major distressors in multi-cultural families were founded in this study. These were different cultural gap, communication difficulties, social discrimination to multi-cultural families, and lack of social support networks. Discussion will address suggestions about effective family policies for multi-cultural families in order to make them resilient to family crisis and help to well-adjusted in the korean society.

이 연구는 가정의 건강성 척도와 관련된 논의 그리고 맞벌이가정의 특성에 주목하여 맞벌이가정에 적용할 수 있는 건강성 척도를 개발하였다. 가정의 건강성은 생활과학 분야에서 오랫동안 연구되어 온 주제로서 이론적 근거와 다양한 내용이 축적되어 있다. 2004년 건강가정기본법 제정을 계기로 가정의 건강성은 현장에서 수행되는 사업에 반영되어, 그 실천성이 부각되고 있다. 또한 여성의 취업과 함께 맞벌이가정이 증가하고 있는데, 맞벌이가정의 특성상 일과 생활의 균형을 중심으로 다양한 요소에서의 건강성 측정 그리고 건강성 증진을 위한 대안 마련이 필요하다. 이에, 이 연구에서는 가정의 건강성, 맞벌이가정 관련 선행연구를 고찰하여 맞벌이가정의 건강성을 측정할 수 있는 문항 초안을 개발하였고, 전문가 자문을 거쳐 예비문항을 선정하였다. 이에 대한 예비조사를 거쳐 80개 문항으로 맞벌이가정의 건강성을 측정할 수 있는 척도 초안을 마련하였다. 척도의 타당성과 신뢰도를 확인하기 위하여 영유아기/학령전기 자녀를 둔 맞벌이 여성과 남성 800명을 대상으로 본조사를 실시하였고, 최종 747부를 통계분석에 사용하였다. 자료를 분석한 결과로 4개 영역 49문항을 도출하였으며, 신뢰도분석과 상관관계분석을 통해 도출된 문항의 타당도와 신뢰도를 검증한 후, 최종적으로 척도를 확정하였다. 확정된 척도는 기본토대(기본생활, 경제생활, 자원관리), 부모역할(나와 배우자의 부모역할), 사회적 관심과 참여(시민의식과 자원봉사, 여가공유, 지역사회 네트워크) 그리고 일생활균형(일가정 조화, 가족역할공유 및 평등한 역할분담)이다. 이 연구에서 개발한 척도는 건강가정지원센터/가족센터 등 현장에서 맞벌이가정 대상 사업을 실시할 때 초기단계에서 활용할 수 있으며, 그 결과를 기초로 컨설팅, 교육, 상담, 다른 프로그램 연계 등이 이루어져, 현장의 사업 활성화에 기여할 것으로 기대한다. 또한 향후 여러 다양한 형태의 가정을 위한 맞춤형의 건강성 척도 개발의 기초자료로 활용할 수 있을 것이다. 이 연구에서 개발한 척도가 잘 활용되기 위해서는 이 척도를 활용할 수 있도록 전문가/담당자 양성을 위한 시스템 구축이 필요하고, 나아가 일상생활의 역동적 변화를 반영, 척도를 지속적으로 업데이트할 수 있도록 자료의 보완이 필요하다.
