본 연구의 목적은 유아교사의 유아권리인식과 교권인식이 유아권리존중 실행에 미치는 영향을 알아보는 것이다. 이를 위해 수도권 소재 유아교육기관에 근무하는 유아교사 355명을 대상으로 설문지 조사를 실시 후, SPSS 24.0을 활용하여 Pearson 상관관계분석 및 다중회귀분석을 실시했다. 연구결과로는 첫째, 유아교사의 유아권리인식과 교권인식 수준이 높을수록 유아권리존중 실행의 수준이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 유아교사의 유아권리인식과 교권인식은 유아권리존중 실행을 예측하는 변인으로 밝혀졌다. 이와 같은 연구결과를 통해 우리는 유아교육현장에서 유아권리존중 실행 수준을 높이기 위해 교사의 유아권리와 교권에 대한 인식을 증진시키는 것이 요구됨을 제안한다.

This research investigated television and video viewing of young children in early childhood all-day program settings and teachers' recognition of its effects on young children through the survey of 452 early childhood teachers. The results show that television and video viewing is used as a whole group activity during transition period and/or waiting time activity for children who come earlier in the morning and remain late until closing time. It means television and video viewing at early childhood settings is mainly used as a group baby sitter or pacifier. Daily viewing time is about 44.02 minutes and early childhood teachers show low recognition of their role in children's viewing habits. Young children's viewing patterns and time are differed by teachers' variables so that young children of beginning teachers at small size settings appear more viewing time. Teachers show more negative recognition of television and video viewing on young children when they are older and have higher educational level and longer education experiences. The results also show that the more teachers have positive recognition on television and video viewing, the more young children are exposed to television and video viewing in their classes.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the differences in early childhood teachers' perceptions of the importance and institutional performance regarding young children's rights. Methods: 171 early childhood teachers responded to the questionnaires. The data were analyzed by using the paired sample t-test and the IPA graph to identify differences in the teachers' perceptions of the importance and performance of each right. Results: First, the teachers perceived the importance of children's rights to be high but low in institutional performance. The main effect of teaching years on the perception appeared significant only regarding performance of the rights of protection and participation. The main effect of teacher education experiences was significant in all areas except the importance of survival rights. The results from Two-Way ANOVA showed the two variables have no interaction. Second, the second quadrant of the IPA matrix displayed the items regarding initiative and autonomy of young children. Both inexperienced- and highly-experiencedteachers, when they had teacher education, recognized that the items related to participation rights should be further improved. Conclusion/Implications: We discussed the various ways in which children's rights should be improved and ways of improving teacher education according to teacher variables in order to promote young children's rights.
