This paper examined the effects of children's interests and attitudes toward mother's native culture and use of mother's native language on satisfaction of the mother-child relationship in multi-cultural families. Data from the 2012 National Survey of Multi-cultural Families demonstrate that for children aged between 9 and 12 years, their fluency and desire to speak well in the mother's native language as well as father's encouragement for using the mother's native language at home were positively associated with satisfaction of the mother-child relationship. For those aged between 13 and 18 years, mother's nationality (i.e. Southeast or South Asia) was negatively related with mother-child relationship satisfaction. Both mother's and children' communication skills, children's interests in mother's native culture, pride for mother being a foreigner, and desire to speak well in the mother's native language were positively associated with mother-child relationship satisfaction. Therefore, there is a need for foreign wives to be educated in Korean language and culture as well as opportunities for children to learn their mother's native culture and language.

This study intended to investigate the relationship between father's/mother's values(materialism, competitive achievement pressure, neighborhood relations), father/mother-student emotional intimacy & father's/mother's over control and university student's alienation, and examin the relative influences of independent variables on university student's alienation. For this purpose, data were obtained from 402 male 7nd female university students in Seoul and Inchon, and analyzed by factor analysis, Cronbach's $\alpha$, frequencies, %, Pearson's r and stepwise multiple regression. The major findings were as follows : 1) father's and mother's values had significant relations to university student's alienation. As father and mother had more materialism and competitive achievement pressure, their university student was more alienated, and as father and mother had more neighborhood relations, the student was less alienated. 2) Emotional intimacy between father/mother and student had negative relation to university student's alienation. As the level of emotional intimacy was higher, the student was less alienated 3) Father's and mother's over control had positive relations to university student's alienation. As father's and mother's over control was higher, the student was more alienated. 4) Mother's neighborhood relations, father's and mother's over control, mother-student emotional intimacy and father's materialism had influences on university student's alienation in descending order. These independent variables explained 25. 0 % of the total valiance. Father's materialism and father's/mother's over control increased the level of university student's alienation, but mother's neighborhood relations and mother-student emotional intimacy decreased the bevel of student's alienation. Emerging evidences suggested that in order to prevent or decrease the university student's alienation, their parents should have less materialism and more neighborhood relations, and should not use over control on their university student but produce more emotional support.

Using questionnaire data from a sample of 236 mothers who have 4-6 years old children in Seoul, this study examined a model of how child's temperament, mother's temperament and parenting stress influence mother's parenting behavior. In general, child's temperament affected mother's parenting indirectly, rather than directly, through its impact on parenting stress and, in turn, parenting behavior. Mother's temperament, in particular, mother's emotionality had a direct effect on parenting as well as parenting stress. As expected, mother's emotionality predicted more reject-authoritarian parenting and this relation was partially mediated by mother's parenting stress. Implications are discussed in terms of the relative contribution of child's temperament and mother's temperament on parental functioning and the importance of mother's psychological well-being.

본 연구는 취업모의 직장환경과 양육시간을 알아보고, 그에 따른 일-어머니 역할갈등의 차이를 알아보는데 그 목적이 있다. 연구 대상은 서울 경기 지역에 소재한 어린이집을 통해 만 3-5세 영유아의 취업모 230명을 대상으로 설문하였다. 설문지는 아동을 통해 각 가정에 의뢰하여 어린이집에서 수거한 뒤 본 연구자가 취합하였다. 배부된 설문지 중에서 202부가 회수되었다. 연구의 목적을 달성하기 위해 t, F검증, 상관관계, 회귀분석을 실시하였으며 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 취업모의 직장환경은 근무시간 융통성이 낮고, 비정규 근무가 높을수록 일-어머니 역할갈등이 높게 나타났으며 가족과 관련된 정책의 시행여부에 따라서는 일-어머니 역할갈등에 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 둘째, 취업모가 자녀와 함께하는 양육시간이 짧을수록 일-어머니 역할갈등이 높게 나타났다. 셋째, 취업모의 일-어머니 역할갈등과 직장환경, 양육시간은 서로 유의한 상관이 나타났다. 마지막으로, 취업모의 직장환경과 양육시간은 일-어머니 역할갈등에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.
