This study purposed to analyze difference in experience of life in Korea among adolescents whose immigrant backgrounds were different (Korean-born children of multicultural families and foreign-born immigrant children) using the data of the 2012 National Survey of Multicultural Families (adolescent children aged between 9 and 24). According to the results of analysis, first, multicultural adolescents with immigrant backgrounds experienced 'difficulty in using the Korean language (speaking, listening, reading, and writing),' 'school dropout,' and 'school violence' more frequently than Korean-born multicultural adolescents. Second, with regard to social discrimination (friends, teachers, relatives, neighbors, and unknown people), multicultural adolescents with immigrant backgrounds experienced 'discrimination by teachers,' 'discrimination by relatives,' 'discrimination by neighbors,' and 'discrimination by unknown people' more frequently than Korean-born multicultural adolescents. By analyzing these differences, this study suggested directions for differentiated support policies and specific strategies for adjustment to life in Korea by multicultural family adolescents with different backgrounds.

Results: The foreign-born mother, foreign-born parents, and foreign-born father rates were 77.2%, 17.3%, and 5.4%, respectively. The toothache, gingival bleeding, tooth fracture, and tooth sensitivity experience rates were 21.3%, 18.8%, 13.3%, and 30.4%, respectively. The tooth fracture rate was highest in the foreign-born parents group (24.6%). The toothache odds ratio (OR) was 1.71 (95% CI: 1.24-2.37) times higher in girls. The foreign-born mother group was 2.47 (95% CI: 1.09-5.60) times higher than that of the foreign-born father or both parents foreign-born groups. The smoking group was 2.03 (95% CI: 1.20-3.43) times higher than that of the non-smoking group. The gingival bleeding OR was 5.11 (95% CI: 1.80-14.53) times higher in the lowest economic status group. The tooth fracture OR was 3.44 (95% CI: 1.01-11.70) times higher in the lowest economic status group. The tooth sensitivity OR was 1.53 (95% CI: 1.14-2.04) times higher in girls. Conclusions: It is necessary to establish a program to promote oral health of adolescents from multicultural families.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of the mothers' native country on influenza vaccinations in adolescents in multicultural families. Methods: Data were gathered from the 13th (2017) Youth Risk Behavior Web-Based Survey. Logistic regression analyses were conducted using a complex sample data analysis method. The participants in this study had a father who was born in Korea and a mother born outside of Korea. The sample included 481 adolescents. Results: The analysis of non-adjusted confounding variables showed that influenza vaccination was higher in multicultural adolescents whose mother's native country had an annual minimum temperature less than $21^{\circ}C$ (odds ratio [OR]: 1.81, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.20~2.74). Furthermore, when the analysis was adjusted for confounding variables, an annual minimum temperature less than $21^{\circ}C$ in the mother's native country had a statistically significant association with influenza vaccination (OR: 2.12, 95% CI: 1.36~3.29). Conclusion: Multicultural adolescents belong to a socioeconomically vulnerable class, and their health promotion behaviors are influenced by their mothers' culture. Thus, healthcare providers and school nurses should provide adolescents with appropriate information related to influenza vaccination depending on their mothers' culture and their family's cultural background.

Purpose: This study aimed to compare health risk behaviors among adolescents according to whether or not the parents were born in South Korea. Methods: From the database of the ninth Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey (KYRBS), the researchers classify adolescents into four groups: those whose parents were both native Korean, those whose mother only was a native Korean, those whose father only was a native Korean, and those whose parents were both foreign-born. Data were analyzed using ${\chi}^2$-test and multiple logistic regression with the SPSS/WIN 18.0 program. Results: The adolescents with a foreign-born mother were less likely to smoke and drink alcohol than those with native Korean parents, but for other health risk behaviors the two groups were similar to each other. The adolescents with a foreign-born father were at a greater risk of drug use, intercourse, depression and violence at school than those with native Korean parents. The adolescents whose parents were born abroad were at a greater risk of smoking, drug use, intercourse, depression, suicidal ideation and violence at school than those with native Korean parents. Conclusion: Health promotion approaches differentiated by the type of multi-cultural family are needed in order to improve multi-cultural adolescents' health.

다문화가족정책이 결혼이민자의 초기정착 지원에서 다문화가족자녀의 성장지원으로 확대되고 있다. 한국에서 태어난 국제결혼가정의 국내출생자녀에 비해 외국성장 배경을 가진 중도입국청소년은 언어와 문화적 차이로 인한 어려움을 많이 겪는다. 이에 본 연구는 부산지역 학령기 중도입국청소년이 한국 사회 적응 시 겪는 어려움을 조사하고 문화적응을 위한 지원방안을 탐색하고자 한다. 중도입국청소년, 이민자 학부모, 학교 내 실무자 및 학교 밖 실무자를 포함하여 총 17명의 연구 참여자를 대상으로 초점집단면접을 실시하여 학령기 중도입국청소년이 겪는 적응의 어려움과 지원방안을 도출하였다. 학령기 중도입국청소년은 문화 인종적 차이, 이름의 차이, 언어적 차이 및 나이 차이로 인한 어려움을 겪었으며, 적응을 위해 한국어 교육, 교과 멘토링, 진로지도 및 학교 내 다문화이해교육에 대한 요구가 높았다. 이주민 및 외국인주민에 대한 결핍 모형에 근거한 문화적 동화주의적 접근법에서 벗어날 필요가 있으며, 다양성 모형에 근거하여 중도입국 청소년의 문화적응 지원방안을 검토할 필요가 있음을 역설하였다.

Recently, as the number of multicultural families and foreigners living in korea increase, the proportion of various types of families and middle-admitted youths is increasing. These youths are less educated than their domestic counterparts, and their conversation time with their family members is relatively weak. Therefore, there is a need for a specialized education system for education and socialization. Immigration background among middle-admitted adolescents, children arrived in korea regardless of their will, with socialization already in the country where they were born, it is a reality that various difficulties are experienced in the socialization of korea society about language, education, emotion and employment. For this reason, some of the migrant background youths are pointed out as a big problem of the multicultural society, which is 18% of the NEET(Not in Education, Employment or Training) classes, which are not educated and are not willing to find jobs or employment. Therefore, in this study, we identified the problems of middle-admitted children of multicultural families as the number of middle-admitted adolescents increased, and suggested the necessary ways for them to achieve rapid socialization and settlement in korea society. For this purpose, we analyzed the problem of education of middle-admitted children as a discriminative approach which is different from general support method for middle-admitted children presented in previous reaearch, since then, we have presented an alternative to carry out realistic, systematic and successful education considering the characteristics of the region centered on the middle-admitted youths of Gwangju city.

본 연구는 결혼 이주 가정 및 중도입국 청소년들의 민족 정체성 탐색 및 형성과 그 맥락적 조건들을 살펴보았다. 이를 위해 연구자들은 일반 중고등학교에 재학 중인 13-17세 결혼 이주 및 중도 입국 청소년 17명과 심층 인터뷰를 진행했으며, 연구결과 참여자들의 민족 정체성이 다양한 차원으로 구성되어 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 구체적으로, 청소년들의 민족 정체성을 이해하는 데에는 스스로 규정하기, 규정의 근거, 정체성에 대한 개인의 정서적 반응, 그리고 정체성의 형성 상태 등 다양한 측면들이 중요하게 관여되어 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 청소년들은 자신의 민족 정체성과 관련된 다양한 사회 문화적 경험들을 하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 연구 결과를 바탕으로 이주 청소년 연구 및 서비스 제공을 위한 학문적, 실천적 함의를 제시하였다.
