Objective: This study examined whether the effects of fathering on school children's effortful control would be moderated by fathers' and mothers' own effortful control. Methods: The sample included 371 fourth grade children (47% boys) and their parents. Father's positive and negative parenting behaviors, parents' own effortful control and children's effortful control were assessed. Data were analyzed using hierarchical multiple regression in SPSS 18.0. Results: Parents' effortful control appeared to moderate the effect of fathering on children's effortful control. More specifically, parents' high levels of effortful control increased the effects of positive fathering on children's effortful control. Conclusion: Findings indicated that parents' effortful control tended to increase the effects of positive fathering (and lower the effects of negative fathering). This supports the importance of parents' effortful control in the development of school children's effortful control.

Objective: This study examined the moderating effect of young children's temperament on the relationship between maternal anxiety and overprotection. Methods: A total of 250 mothers with 5-year-old children responded to online survey questionnaires, which included questions about maternal anxiety, overprotection, and their children's temperament. Results: The results of the study revealed several important findings. First, maternal anxiety had a positive correlation to the overall level of overprotection and all sub-factors. The correlation between young children's temperament and maternal overprotection had different results depending on the sub-factors of overprotection. Second, there was a significant moderating effect of young children's temperament on the relationship between maternal anxiety and overprotection. That is, When the reactivity of a child was low, the positive effect of maternal anxiety on maternal overprotection was greater. Looking at the sub-factors of overprotection, only reactive temperament showed a significant moderating effect in the relationship between maternal anxiety and intrusive overprotection. On the relationship between maternal anxiety and permissive overprotection, reactivity and adaptability had significant moderating effects. Conclusion/Implications: This study showed that mother's overprotection was associated with varying levels of their own anxiety and children's temperament. These findings offer basic knowledge for development of a program for improving parenting behaviors.

본 연구는 유아의 학령전환기에 있는 만 5세 유아의 문제행동과 관련하여 유아, 교사 및 부모의 관련 변인과 유아의 문제행동에 통계적인 유의미한 차이가 있는지 살펴보고, 변인들의 상대적인 영향력을 알아보고자 한다. 본 연구대상은 학령전환기에 있는 만 5세 유아와 그들의 부모, 그리고 만 5세 유아의 담임교사를 대상으로 하였다. 연구방법은 빈도와 백분율, t-검증, 일원변량분석, 상관관계분석, 그리고 중다회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과로는 첫째, 유아의 문제행동은 어머니 학력에 따라 유의미한 차이가 나타났으며, 둘째, 유아의 기질, 유아의 자아탄력성, 어머니의 양육스트레스, 어머니의 인성특성, 교사-유아관계, 교사의 정서표현성과 유아의 문제행동은 관련성이 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 셋째, 교사-유아관계가 유아의 문제행동을 가장 잘 예언하는 변인으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 유아변인과 부모변인, 교사변인이 각각 그리고 상호적으로 유아의 문제행동에 대해 어느 정도 설명력을 갖는지를 살펴봄으로서 문제행동에 대한 총체적 이해와 실천에서의 통합모델을 제시하였다고 본다.

Purpose: This study aimed to explore ecological factors and strategies for childhood obesity prevention targeting vulnerable children using a community-based participatory research (CBPR) methodology. Methods: The CBPR was conducted by following basic process steps. Participants were 12 community stakeholders such as community child center directors (n=4), vulnerable children's mothers (n=3), community health center officials (n=2), and lay health advisors (n=4); they were purposively sampled from K municipal county in Seoul, South Korea. The qualitative content analysis was performed to explore main themes of the ecological factors and strategies by using data obtained from 5 times of focus group interview. Results: Twelve ecological factors associated with childhood obesity prevention were identified: Intrapersonal factors including emotional overeating; interpersonal factors including permissive parenting style of children's eating behaviors; organizational factors including social workers' less educational opportunities; and community/policy factors including less government financial support. Four ecological strategies for childhood obesity prevention were addressed: Developing obesity prevention programs targeting vulnerable children' lifestyles; promoting parents' active participation in education; building healthy meal service environments through empowering social workers; and building supportive community environment and securing community resources for child obesity prevention. Conclusion: Our findings may be informative in terms of providing a comprehensive understanding of multi-level ecological barriers against vulnerable children' obesity prevention and, moreover, guiding multi-level strategies for preventing childhood obesity targeting children enrolled in community child centers.

본 연구에서는 다문화가정 어머니의 한국어 의사소통 능력과 이중언어문화 노출정도가 어머니의 양육참여 활동에는 어떠한 영향을 미치며, 이는 궁극적으로 아동의 발달산물에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 살펴보았다. 이를 위해 경기도 거주 결혼이주여성 459명과 그들의 초등학교 5-6학년 자녀 459명을 쌍체수집한 경기교육복지패널 1차년도(2011) 자료를 원자료로 하여 공변량구조분석을 수행했다. 분석결과 어머니의 한국어 구사가 원활하고, 자녀가 어머니 나라의 문화와 언어에 보다 많이 노출되었을 때 어머니의 양육참여가 보다 적극적으로 이루어지고, 이는 궁극적으로 아동의 발달산물에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 다문화가정 어머니를 대상으로 한 한국어지원서비스가 단순히 취업이나 한국사회 적응에서 필요한 기술일 뿐 아니라 양육참여에도 매우 중요함을 보여주었다. 또한 이중언어 문화환경이 더 이상 다문화가정 자녀들의 적응에 위험요소가 아니며 오히려 발달에 간접적으로 기여하는 자원으로 간주할 필요가 있음을 시사한다.
