본 연구는 영아기 자녀를 둔 어머니의 어린이집 선택과 관련된 다양한 변인의 영향을 체계적으로 분석하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 어린이집의 대기신청을 통해 최근 6개월 이내 입소한 0~40개월의 영아를 둔 어머니 185명과 현재 대기신청 중이며 자녀가 어린이집을 이용하지 않고 있는 어머니 53명을 대상으로 하였다. 연구 결과 첫째, 어머니들은 어린이집 대기신청 시 국공립어린이집을 선호하는 경향이 있으며, 주된 이유는 보육환경 및 시설의 질적인 우수성 때문인 것으로 나타났다. 자녀를 어린이집에 보내지 않는 어머니는 주변에 자녀를 보낼 만한 어린이집이 충분하지 않으며 질적 수준도 낮은 것으로 평가하였으며, 어린이집을 이용하는 어머니에 비해 지적 성취와 성숙주의를 강조하는 신념을 가지고 있었다. 둘째, 어린이집을 이용하는 어머니들의 경우 자녀의 연령이 어릴수록, 취업모인 경우, 대기신청기간이 길수록, 어린이집의 구조적 요인을 중요하게 여길수록 민간 또는 가정어린이집을 선택하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 영아기 자녀를 둔 어머니가 어린이집을 선택하는 의사결정 과정에 어떠한 변인들이 우선순위로 작용하는지를 살펴봄으로써 이들의 다양한 보육 욕구를 이해하고, 어린이집의 확충 및 질적 제고를 위한 실효성 있는 정책을 수립하는 데 유용한 기초자료를 제공할 수 있다는 데 의의가 있다.

Multiple features of infant day-care are explored, including age of entry, quantity, quality and stability of day-care. And relative contribution of day-care and family factors on maternal behaviors are examined. Data were gathered from 299 mothers who have infants aged under 36 months using self-report questionnaires. Results show that more than 40% infants enter day-care before 6 months of their life and about 85% of infants have far more than 30 hours of care a week. Half of the infants experience different day-care arrangements more than once. Compared to the other types of day-care, frequency of day-care arrangement change and quality of care are highest in private child-care centers. A series of Hierarchical regression results reveal that quality of day care is negatively related to mothers' control behavior whereas positively related to mothers' responsive behavior. But in general, family and child characteristics play a greater role in mothers' parenting behaviors than infant day-care characteristics.

Purpose: This study aimed to translate the Perinatal Infant Care Social Support (PICSS) instrument into Chinese and to verify the reliability and validity of the translated version. Methods: This study used a cross-sectional design to examine the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of the PICSS (C-PICSS). A cohort of 150 first-time mothers in China participated, attending hospital follow-up care at 6 weeks postpartum. Data were collected after obtaining informed consent from the mothers. Results: The majority of mothers were aged between 20 and 29 years, with a mean age of 26.25 (±3.90) years. An item analysis of the 19 items in the C-PICSS showed that all items had an item-total score correlation above 0.2. This resulted in a Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin value of 0.92 and a significant Bartlett's test of sphericity (χ²=1,778.65, p<.001), confirming the suitability of the data for factor analysis. Correlation analyses revealed a strong positive relationship between infant care social support and general social support (r=.62, p<.001), and a negative relationship between infant care social support and postpartum depression (r=-. 38, p<.001). Higher scores for infant care social support were associated with reporting positive relationships with their husbands (t=3.72, p<.001) and high levels of spousal involvement (t=4.09, p<.001). In terms of structural support, spouses were identified as the primary source. Conclusion: The research results indicate that C-PICSS is reliable and valid as an indicator of social support for infant care among Chinese mothers.
