Objective: The purpose of the present study was to examine how children's transition to adulthood might be related to their parents' marital satisfaction and relationship satisfaction with children. Specifically, we investigated if the numbers of children who (1) graduated from 4-year college, (2) were employed, (3) were married, (4) moved out of parental homes and lived independently, and (5) had at least one child might be associated with better marital satisfaction and higher relationship satisfaction with children among midlife and older parents. We also evaluated if the associations might differ by gender of the children (sons vs. daughters) as well as by their gender and birth order (first-born son, later-born son, first-born daughter, later-born daughter). Method: The analytic sample was drawn from the 2006 Korean Longitudinal Study of Ageing. The sample consisted of 1,905 parents whose children were aged between 25 and 35. For analysis, regression models with robust standard errors were estimated using Stata. Results: Results suggest that sons' (especially first-born sons') transition to adulthood exerted more consistent impacts on parents. More specifically, first-born sons' completion of higher education, marriage, and independent living arrangement were associated with either higher levels of parental marital satisfaction or relationship satisfaction with children. With regard to later-born sons, their completion of college education was linked to higher levels of parental marital satisfaction and relationship satisfaction with children. Conclusion: Korean parents appear to place greater importance on first-born sons' successful transition to adulthood compared to those of other children. Overall, however, transition to adulthood may have limited influence on Korean parents.

The purposes of this study were firstly to investigate how the conflict-coping methods of husbands and wives relate to their cognition of their own conflict-coping methods and those of their spouse and secondly to investigate how the interaction patterns of the conflict-coping methods between husbands and wives affect their marital satisfaction in the early stage of marital life. The main findings of this study were as follows: Firstly, this study indicated that both husbands and wives recognized that they themselves use the more reasonable conflict-coping method than their spouse. Both thought that husbands use the more avoidant, conflict-coping method than wives. Secondly, the study showed that both husbands and wives are tend to use the same conflict-coping method as their spouse's conflict-coping method as perceived by them. All the conflict-coping methods of husbands were related to their perception of their wives' conflict-coping methods. In the can of wives, however, there was no significant correlation between their aggressive conflict-coping method and the husbands' avoidant conflict-coping method, or between their avoidant conflict-coping method and the husbands' reasonable conflict-coping method. These results indicated a gender-difference in the conflict-coping methods between husbands and wives. Thirdly, the study showed that when husbands and wives regarded the interaction pattern of the conflict-coping method between themselves and their spouse as the reasonable$\ast$reasonable pattern, both of them had the highest marital satisfaction. When husbands regarded the interaction pattern of the conflict-coping method as the aggressive$\ast$aggressive pattern, they had the lowest marital satisfaction. On the other hand, when wives regarded the interaction pattern of the conflict-coping method as the aggressive$\ast$avoidant pattern, they had the lowest marital satisfaction.

The present study aimed to identify the variables related to paternal participation in child-rearing. For this purpose, 543 fathers of young children living in the seven biggest cities in Korea were invited to participate in the internet survey and completed questionnaires assessing marital and job satisfaction. Their temperament was measured with the EAS Temperament Survey(Buss & Plomin, 1984). The result of this research showed that both the marital and job satisfaction of the fathers affected their parenting participation. And also, marital satisfaction was more strongly associated with the fathers' parenting participation than job satisfaction. All temperament types of the fathers had moderating effects and there were significant differences according to their temperament. This study provides the key factors which have an influence on paternal involvement in parenting and also suggests that the temperament of the father should be considered for participation in parenting.

본 연구는 배우자 직업 유무가 한국인부부와 국제결혼부부의 결혼만족도에 대한 영향요인과 관련변인인 부부공평성과 부부갈등이 결혼만족도에 미치는 영향을 비교분석하여 행복한 결혼의 지속에 대한 대안을 제시하는 것이 목적이며, 추후 연구에서는 국제결혼한 부부의 경우 한국에서 안정적인 직업을 갖추고 생활할 수 있도록 국제부부를 위한 중장기적인 정책 대안도 연계시켜 구체적인 연구를 진행할 필요가 있다. 연구결과 집단별 배우자 직업유무에 따른 결혼만족도는 국제결혼 부부 여자 집단에서 가장 높게 나타났으며, 본국에 일정액의 송금을 하는 경우 결혼만족도가 가장 높게 나타났다. 부부공평성의 경우 국제결혼부부 여자집단의 평균이 가장 높게 나타남으로 가장 공평치 않음이 나타났으며, 집단별 부부갈등 대처방법은 본인 갈등개입의 경우 국제결혼부부 남자가 가장 높게 나타났다. 본인 순종 점수는 국제결혼부부 여자가 가장 높게 나타났으며, 성역할태도와 의사소통은 성역할 태도의 경우 의사소통에서 집단 간 차이가 뚜렷하게 나타났다. 결혼만족도에 영향을 미치는 변인은 배우자의 직업 유무, 의사소통, 배우자의 갈등개입, 본인의 긍정적 문제해결, 갈등에서 본인후퇴, 배우자 학력, 심리정서 공평성으로 나타났다.
