This study investigated the relations between mother's parenting self-efficacy, perceived social support, parenting behavior, and acculturative stress, and young children's problem behavior, focusing on the mediational role of mother's parenting self-efficacy and parenting behavior. Mothers were female international marriage immigrant from China, Philippines, and Vietnam. The participants were 374mothers of young children and teachers of the children in Busan and Gyungnam, Korea. Questionnaires were based on Choe and Chung (2001), Shin(1996), Lee (1996), Hong (1995), and Han(1996). Structural equation modeling indicated that mother's parenting self-efficacy and parenting behavior were significant mediators of the relation between mother's perceived social support and child's problem behavior. The results will be useful for parent training programs for female international marriage immigrant.

For many years, matching in a bipartite graph has been widely used in various assignment problems, such as stable marriage problem (SMP). As an application of bipartite matching, the problem of stable marriage is defined over equally sized sets of men and women to identify a stable matching in which each person is assigned a partner of opposite gender according to their preferences. The classical SMP proposed by Gale and Shapley uses preference lists for each individual (men and women) which are infeasible in real world applications for a large populace of men and women such as matrimonial websites. In this paper, we have proposed an enhancement to the SMP by computing a weighted score for the users registered at matrimonial websites. The proposed enhancement has been formulated into profit maximization of matrimonial websites in terms of their ability to provide a suitable match for the users. The proposed formulation to maximize the profits of matrimonial websites leads to a combinatorial optimization problem. We have proposed greedy and genetic algorithm based approaches to solve the proposed optimization problem. We have shown that the proposed genetic algorithm based approaches outperform the existing Gale-Shapley algorithm on the dataset crawled from matrimonial websites.

This paper deals with a newly proposed algorithm for stable marriage problem, which I coin threshold algorithm. The proposed algorithm firstly constructs an $n{\times}n$ matrix of the sum of each sex's preference over the members of the opposite sex. It then selects the minimum value from each row and column to designate the maximum value of the selected as the sum threshold $p^*_{ij}$. It subsequently deletes the maximum preference $_{mzx}p_{ij}$ from a matrix derived from deleting $p_{ij}$ > $p^*_{ij}$, until ${\mid}c_i{\mid}=1$ or ${\mid}c_j{\mid}=1$. Finally, it undergoes an optimization process in which the sum preference is minimized. When tested on 7 stable marriage problems, the proposed algorithm has proved to improve on the existing solutions.

This paper suggest a new ACS algorithm to solve SMP which was solved by Gale-Shapley algorithm. The stable marriage problem is an extensively-studied combinatorial problem with many practical applications. The classical Gale-Shapley algorithm produces a marriage that greatly favors the men at the expense of the women, or vice versa. In this paper we apply ACS algorithm to SMP to find 4 kinds of solutions such as stable matching with man-optimal, woman-optimal, egalitarian stable matching, sex-fair stable matching. So this ACS is a novel method to solve Stable Marriage Problem. Our simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed ACS.

"China", "Guang-Xi(廣西)", "Dong-Shan(東山)", a marriage of "Yao-zu(瑤族)" divide mainly into a distinguished family form, but are by a marriage of a traditional general form (a woman getting married) and "Zhaoxu-Hun(招婿婚)", a marriage of "Liangtou-che(兩頭扯)". These two marriage format that mentioned the back is a marriage format to often appear in other Chinese minority race region while being a custom peculiar to "Yao-zu(瑤族)" marriage method. "Zhaoxu-Hun(招婿婚)" provides labor force as a workman while living with a man sinks with "son-in-law" to a woman house, and doing, and it is to carry out a lot of duty as a husband too. "A Liangtou-che(兩頭扯)" marriage is more characteristic, but lives while going around a bilateral family while man and woman each stay in an own house. There are inheritance of property rights to own family, too and obeys anger of he direction family bilateral where if lays a child even if stands up and holds a memorial service. At the same time that these marriages are performed between the same "Yao-zu(瑤族)" near a track, and solution does a distribution problem between a labor problem and the families which were unstable through a mutual marriage for the purpose a compunction "Yao-zu(瑤族)" social network construction into intimacy anger. A general idea is covered he base with in order the porcelain which is a weak race prevent that it is assimilated by external aggression because "Yo-zu(瑤族)" has always received aggression of "a Han-zu(漢族)" too historically, and to keep an ethnic pure blood.

Purpose - The purpose of this research is to explore the determinants of marriage intention for Korean youth. Because Korean society is under the population decline, inspecting influential attributes become worthy. Design/methodology/approach - This study employed Korean Youth panel data. The determinants of marriage intention include subjective health, leisure time, Schwabe index, culture recreation ratio, and Engel coefficient. This study performed binary logistic regression to test the hypotheses. Findings - The results indicate that subjective health and leisure time positively impact on the likelihood of marriage intention. However, culture recreation ratio and Engel coefficient negatively affect the likelihood of marriage intention. Schwabe index exerts no significant effect on marriage intention. Research implications or Originality - The results could become useful information to build policy to solve the population decline problem

In this paper, we propose Ant-Q learning Algorithm[1], which uses the habits of biological ants, to find a new way to solve Stable Marriage Problem(SMP)[3] presented by Gale-Shapley[2]. The issue of SMP is to find optimum matching for a stable marriage based on their preference lists (PL). The problem of Gale-Shapley algorithm is to get a stable matching for only male (or female). We propose other way to satisfy various requirements for SMP. ACS(Ant colony system) is an swarm intelligence method to find optimal solution by using phermone of ants. We try to improve ACS technique by adding Q learning[9] concept. This Ant-Q method can solve SMP problem for various requirements. The experiment results shows the proposed method is good for the problem.

In this paper I propose a simple optimal solution seeking algorithm to a stable marriage problem. The proposed algorithm firstly constructs an $n{\times}n$ matrix of the sum of each gender's preference of the other gender $p_{ij}$. It then selects the minimum sum preference $_{min}p_{ij}$ in the constructed matrix and deletes its corresponding row i and column j. This process is repeated until $i=0{\cap}j=0$, after which the algorithm compares initially or last chosen $_{min}p_{ij}$ its alternatives to finally determine one that yields the maximum marginal increase in preference. When applied to 7 stable marriage problems, the proposed algorithm has improved on initial solutions of existing algorithms.

The purpose of this study were (1) to thumbnail sketch of present general condition of foreigners and international marriage in Korea, (2) to study special trend of international marriage in rural Korea, particularly immigration connected with poverty, and (3) to focus on prospect of the problem of mixed-bloods, especially half blood children in rural Korea. Many of foreigners were treated discriminatingly, for example racial discrimination and wage discrimination. And discrimination to mixed-blood children will be happen in future. They are in a disadvantageous position because of economic status and appearances. Half blood children have korean nationality because one of his parent is korean. When they grow up and reach their the age of puberty and the age of working, they will resist to discrimination in working and marriage. I had examined precedent studies, and class theory in general, and to suggest it is time to looking for way of reduce social cost and way of coexistence.

In this work, we formulated a mathematical model for divorce in marriage and extended in to an optimal control model. Firstly, we qualitatively established the model positivity and boundedness. Also we saw sensitivity analysis of the model and identified the positive and negative indices parameters. An optimal control model were developed by incorporating three time dependent control strategies (couple relationship education, reducing getting married too young & consulting separators to renew their marriage) on the deterministic model. The Pontryagin's maximum principle were used for the derivation of necessary conditions of the optimal control problem. Finally, with Newton's forward and backward sweep method numerical simulation were performed on optimality system by considering four integrated strategies. So that we reached to a result that using all three strategies simultaneously (the strategy D) is an optimal control in order to effectively control marriage divorce over a specified period of time. From this we conclude that, policymakers and stakeholders should use the indicated control strategy at a time in order to fight against Divorce in a population.
