The purpose of this study is to structure finance management education programme and to provide basic data orienting finance service system by means of analyzing the level of financial problem and its influential variables. The following is the result of this study: First, the level of financial problem perceived by housewife in urban areas is in the following order ; property which is perceived the least. Second, the level of financial problem perceived by housewife in urban areas is dependant on housewife age, husband education level, husband occupation, the degree of property, the degree of debts, tendency of fortune control, tendency of materialism, feeling of appropriate resource. It is especially noting that housewife in forties shows high level of financial of financial problem recognition than housewife in twenties does. This indicates needs for middle for middle-aged home management in which happens house moving to larger size, education of children, marriage of children, preparation for stabilization basis after children’s marriage, and shortage of surplus money. Third, variables which affect all sub-areas are family property sum, tendency of materialism, feeding of appropriate resources. The less family property sum, the stronger tendency of materialism, and the more perceive feeling of appropriate resources, the more perceive they financial problems.

I devised a parenting training program in order to help female international marriage immigrants address child behavior problems. The target ethnic group for this study was south-east Asians, in particular Filipino mothers. Two group, each containing 7 mothers, were provided with 8 parenting training sessions. The participants, all with Korean husbands, were already trained in Korean traditional parenting value and positive parenting behavior. To test the effect of this program, pre-, post-, and 6-months follow-up tests were conducted. Resulted showed that the parenting training program improved positive parenting behavior, enhanced parenting self-efficacy, and reduced the children's problem behaviors.

In this paper proposes a stable marriage algorithm. The proposed algorithm firstly constructs an $n{\times}n$ matrix of men's and women's sum preference over opposite sex $p_{ij}$. It then repeatedly deletes row or column corresponding to the then maximum dispreference sum $_{max}p_{ij}$ until ${\forall}(|r_i|=1{\cap}|c_j|=1)$. If $|r_i|=1$ or $|c_j|=1$ then we select the $p_{ij}$ of $|r_i|=1$ or $|c_j|=1$ then the row or column values are deleted repeatedly until ${\forall}(|r_i|=1{\cap}|c_j|=1)$. When tested on 7 stable marriage problems, the proposed algorithm has proved to improve on the existing solutions.

In this paper, a support plan for marriage immigrants through e-learning was studied. Currently, the number of Korean men marrying foreign women is rapidly increasing due to the increase in the imbalance of gender ratios caused by preference for boys and shunning of rural areas by Korean women. To alleviate this problem, the government is performing various social adaptation programs such as Korean language education and vocational education. Most marriage immigrants, however, are not properly educated as they are burdened by their household duties or work. In this paper, a plan for supporting marriage immigrants through e-learning was researched. To achieve this goal, a survey on intentions of the marriage immigrants to receive muticultural education through e-learning was performed. The result showed that most of marriage immigrants have a strong preference for e-learning. However, there are differences on their preference depending on the original nationality and residential region. A support plan for multicultural education through e-learning was proposed according to the above result. The support plan consists of three parts. First, education for marriage immigrants will be specialized according to their respective original nationality. Second, Korean education will be given greater emphasis in education. Third, vocation education which will benefit marriage immigrants will be prepared. Above support plans are expected to help the marriage immigrants to settle as equal members of the society instead of deteriorating into an underprivileged class by providing them with an opportunity to receive education.

There is well known algorithm is a Gale-Shapley algorithm(GSA) for stable marriage problem. The GSA is performed as each man propose to his most favorite woman(MP), then the woman accepts more than one proposal rejects all but her favorite from among those who have proposed to her. This algorithm always gets a stable set of marriages with man-optimal and woman-pessimal. But the woman proposal and man-accept/reject method(WP) is can be get the distinct result. Also, the optimal stable matching may be fail using MP or WP. This paper suggests always get the optimal stable matching on all occasions in order to overcome the shortcomings of MP and WP. The proposed algorithm perform k-opt, k-women exchange with each other for the result of delete at less preference in each woman from MP result. As a result of applied to various experimental data, this algorithm can be get the optimal stable matching that the MP or WP failed to it.

This paper proposes a simplified algorithm devised to obtain optimal solution to the marriage problem. In solving this problem, the most widely resorted to is the Gale-Shapley algorithm with the time complexity of $O({\mid}V{\mid}^2{\mid}E{\mid})$. The proposed algorithm on the other hand firstly constructs a $p_{ij}$ matrix of inter-preference sum both sexes' preference over the opposite sex. Secondly, it selects $_{min}p_i$ from each row to establish ${\mid}p_{.j}{\mid}{\geq}2,j{\in}S$, ${\mid}p_{.j}{\mid}=1$, $j{\in}H$, ${\mid}p_{.j}{\mid}=0$, $j{\in}T$. Finally, it shifts $_{min}\{_{min}p_{ST},p_{SH}+p_{HT\}$ for $_{min}P_{ST}$ of $S{\rightarrow}T$ and $p_{SH}+p_{HT}$, $p_{HT}<_{min}p_{ST}$ of $S{\rightarrow}H$, $H{\rightarrow}T$. The proposed algorithm has not only improved the Gale-Shapley's algorithm's complexity of $O({\mid}V{\mid}^2{\mid}E{\mid})$ to $O({\mid}V{\mid}^2)$ but also proved its extendable use on unbalanced marriage problems.

Purpose: This study was conducted to survey female Vietnamese marriage immigrants' life stress and to analyze factors influencing their life stress and coping strategies. Methods: As descriptive correlation research, this study conducted a survey with 182 conveniently sampled subjects. Data were collected in June, 2015, and analyzed with descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and stepwise multiple regression. Results: The subjects' life stress levels were above average, and significantly varied according to their health, and economic status. Stress coping strategies used by the subjects included assistance seeking, problem avoidance, wishful thinking, problem solving, and emotional alleviation in the order of frequency. As a result of the stepwise multiple regression, economic level, economic activity, and health status were found to be the most significant factors influencing the subjects' life stress, and these variables explained 45.1% of the variation in life stress. Conclusion: Female marriage immigrants were experiencing above-average life stress, and they were coping with it mainly in terms of assistance seeking or problem avoidance. In order to mitigate their stress, therefore, it is necessary to provide extended employment opportunities and economic activities for them so that they can cultivate their abilities in health management.

The purpose of this research is to 'know what causes the social isolation felt by marriage immigrant women'. Thus, a total of 253 cases of marriage immigrant women who use Multi-cultural Family Support Center in D city have been analyzed. The findings reveal that the factors influencing the sense of isolation in the social environment, experienced by immigrant women married to Koreans are: social support, family relationships, self-esteem, household income and economic activity. In other words, their strong sense of isolation from society will be lessened when they get more social support, are happy with their family relationships, have their improved self-esteem, earn higher household incomes and don't take part in undesirable economic activities. Based on the research results, this study makes suggestions, on both a political and practical level, to solve the above problem of social isolation faced by marriage immigrant women through their financial stability, desirable economic activities, healthy family relationships, the enhancement of self-esteem and the provision of generous social support for them.

This paper focuses on how Singapore has adopted the 'Marriage Promotion Policy' for resolving the low birthrate and how it has been using the Social Development Network (SDN) to cope with the problem of low fertility. Social Development Network is an organization that shows Singapore's national stewardship to marriage, and has developed from the beginning to the social phenomenon of increasing number of highly educated women and decreasing fertility. The predecessor of Social Development Network is 'Social Development Unit' (SDU), absorbed the 'Social Development Service' (SDS) that was launched later, and reborn as Social Development Network in 2009. At its inception, Social Development Network has been recruiting and organizing its own memberships without the help of commercial marriage agencies, and since 2006 has been dedicated to delegating dating and matchmaking services to private companies and supporting projects. The purpose of this paper using literature analysis is to analyze the status and role of Social Development Network from the theoretical point of view of marital stewardship to the present, and to suggest meaningful implications for Korea which has the same social experience.
