본 연구는 만 3세 이전 발달위험군 영아 어머니의 양육스트레스와 우울의 변화궤적을 살펴보고, 양육스트레스가 우울에 미치는 지속적 영향을 분석하였다. 본 연구를 위해 육아정책연구소에서 실시한 한국아동패널 2008년부터 2011년도까지의 총 4차년도 데이터를 분석 자료로 사용하였으며, 만 3세 이전에 발달위험 증상을 보인 아동 476명의 어머니를 분석대상으로 하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 발달위험군 영아 어머니들의 양육스트레스는 출산 후 4년 간 유의미하게 증가하였고 개인별로 증가폭도 차이가 있었으나, 우울의 경우 유의한 증가를 보이지 않았다. 둘째, 발달위험군 영아 어머니들은 자녀를 출산한 해의 양육스트레스 수준이 높을수록 당해의 우울 수준이 높고, 출산 직후 4년간 양육스트레스의 증가폭이 클수록 우울의 증가폭도 커졌다. 본 연구의 결과는 만 3세 이전 영아기에 발달위험 증상을 보인 자녀를 둔 어머니들의 양육스트레스를 줄이는 노력을 통하여 우울 수준도 감소할 수 있으며, 이러한 노력이 지속적으로 이루어져야 함을 시사한다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the impacts of various stressors among dual-earner families on parenting stress and marital satisfaction. Using a survey data collected from 168 dual-earner couples, this study investigated impact of various stressors, including husband division of labor, the satisfaction of childcare arrangement, husband's support on wife's outside work, family socioeconomic status, and strains from job. The finding suggested that, after controlling background variables(length of marriage, the number of children, and family income), high husbands' support on wife's outside work and low strains about their work hours had influenced on higher parenting stress among fathers, while high strains about their work hours had related to high parenting stress among mothers. It also found that high satisfaction on childcare arrangement and low depression were the factors predicting higher marital satisfaction of mothers, and high support on their wife's outside work, low work role strain, low depression, and low parenting stress had influenced on higher marital satisfaction among fathers.

This study examined the causal relationships between parenting stress and self-efficacy of Korean mothers with an infant according to employment status using the second through fourth wave data of the Panel Study of Korean Children (PSKC). Autoregressive cross-lagged modeling was performed to test the longitudinal reciprocal relationships between the two constructs. Our results indicated that both maternal parenting stress and self-efficacy were consistent over time. The results also indicated that there was a significant cross-lagged effect of maternal parenting stress on their self-efficacy, rather than vice versa. No differences between working and non-working mothers were found in the relationship between the two constructs.

In this study, a sample of 249 mothers of 5- to 7-year-old kindergarteners responded to 4 questionnaires regarding maternal parenting stress, efficacy and behavior, and children's social competence. Teachers of the children also rated social competence. Correlations and regressions showed that parenting stress and difficulties in parenting were negatively related and parenting confidence and behavior were positively related to social competence, respectively. Parenting stress was the most influential variable to explain social competence. Maternal parenting stress was negatively related to parenting behavior and confidence, and it was positively related to difficulties in parenting. Parenting confidence was positively related and difficulties in parenting were negatively related to the subscales of parenting behavior, respectively. Parenting efficacy tended to play a mediating role between maternal parenting stress and parenting behavior.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify factors influencing parenting confidence in first-time mothers and to provide basic data for development of maternal role education programs. Method: The participants were 194 first-time mothers of babies aged 1-6 months who visited well-baby clinics in 4 hospitals. Instruments used in this study were self-reported questionnaires. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation coefficient and stepwise multiple regression. Results: The parenting confidence level was moderate with a mean score of 3.26(range 1-6). Infant temperament was significantly correlated with maternal role confidence. Maternal role confidence was significantly correlated with child-rearing environment. Infant temperament and parenting stress were significant predictors explaining 50% maternal role confidence. Conclusions: Nursing Interventions to promote parenting confidence among first-time mothers of infants in their first year are needed to improve maternal perception to infant temperament and reduce parenting stress.
