  • 최근 국내에서도 취약계층별 공공도서관 서비스에 대한 연구가 많이 수행되었다. 그러나 인적 및 물적 자원이 제한된 공공도서관 입장에서는 과부하로 인하여 제시된 모든 대안을 수용하기 어려울 뿐만 아니라 여러 대안이 논리적으로 모순되고 현실적으로 상충될 가능성을 내포하고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 실정법이 규정하고 있는 5대 취약계층(장애인, 다문화가족, 노인, 농어촌주민, 기초생활수급자)을 대상으로 지식정보서비스를 강화하기 위한 통합형 지향성과 전략적 방안을 제시하였다.

  • Children from low-income families are vulnerable to variable psychological and emotional stress related to financial issues and dysfunctional families. The subjects were 15 1st to 3rd graders who were low on the Self Esteem Scale (SES). They were attending an after-school center for elementary school students. They participated in three art therapy groups from April to October 2005. Children's depressive symptoms and self-esteem were assessed using the Children's Depression Inventory (CDI) and an observational check-list. Results showed that the group art therapy program brought about significant effects on increasing self-esteem of the children and reducing depressive symptoms, showing that group art therapy can facilitate emotional and psycho-social growth of children from low-income families and can be developed in family-based community programs.

  • Although it has been noted that mentoring program is viewed as a effective way of intervention for the youth at-risk and vulnerable, few empirical studies have documented the benefits of mentoring program on youth. This research focused on effectiveness of campus-based mentoring program for children of unemployed families. It examined psychosocial benefits of mentoring program on mentor and mentee using the experimental design, posttest-only control group design. Significant differences were found between the control and intervention group. Children who have participated in mentoring program marked higher scores than control group in various psychosocial aspects including interpersonal skills, self-efficacy, sense of plan and motivation of schooling. Also university students who have participated as mentors marked higher ego-strength score than not. On the basis of these findings, this study recommended campus-based mentoring program as a effective growth-oriented program for the university students as well as the children of unemployed families.

  • 2007년 시범사업으로 시작한 드림스타트 도입 10년을 맞아 그간의 변화와 성장을 사회투자전략의 관점에서 평가하고, 향후 발전과제를 제시하고자 하였다. 헤드스타트와 슈어스타트 프로그램과 관련된 연구 성과와 정책근거에 기반 해 도입된 드림스타트는 아동복지프로그램에서 주요한 공적 전달체계로 자리 잡고있다. 12세 이하 취약계층 아동에게 맞춤형 통합서비스를 제공해, 아동의 복지를 증진시키며, 불평등 격차를 줄여 취약계층 아동에게 최선의 출발선을 제공하는 것이 드림스타트의 주된 목적이다. 이를 위해 상담, 보건, 부모교육, 학습지원, 방과 후 활동 등 다양한 서비스를 통합적으로 제공하는 사례관리접근이 핵심적으로 활용되고 있다. 도입 이후 실시된 여러 효과성연구는 긍정적인 영향과 개선을 보고하고 있지만, 강력하고 기대했던 성과를 충분히 보여주지는 못하고 있다. 드림스타트가 애초 달성하려 했던 정책목표를 위해서는 향후 재정지원 확대와 안정적인 정책지원이 필요하다. 드림스타트 표적 집단인 취약계층 아동 모두가 드림스타트를 이용하고, 그들이 경험하는 불평등과 격차를 극복하기 위해서는 풀어야 할 과제가 여전히 남아있다. 드림스타트가 고려하고 추진해야 할 향후 과제들을 실천적 측면과 정책적 측면에서 제시하였다.

  • 우리나라는 경제 사회적 구조 변화로 인해 재난에 취약한 계층이 증가하고 있다. 특히, 고령화, 양극화, 국제화 추세가 심화됨에 따라 노인, 장애인, 기초생활수급자, 외국인, 다문화 가정 등 사회적 취약계층으로 불리는 이들이 재난에도 취약한데 흔히, '재난약자'라고 불린다. 재난약자들은 재난 발생시에 일반인과 달리 재난정보 획득에 어려움을 겪는 등, 자력으로 신속한 대응이 어렵기 때문에 특별한 관심과 관련된 정책이 필요하다. 물론, 최근에 재난약자에 대한 연구가 꾸준히 증가하고 있지만 외국인에 대한 논의는 상대적으로 부족하고, 이는 그들에 대한 재난에 대한 이해나 대처방법에 대한 실태를 정확하게 파악하지 못하게 되어 한국인의 시각과 관점에서 관련 정책을 마련하게 되고, 결국 국내 체류 외국인들은 관련 정보를 얻는데 어려움을 겪을 수 밖에 없는 악순환이 반복되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 국내에 거주하고 있는 외국인 근로자를 대상으로 재난정보에 대한 인식과 획득경로 등에 대한 심층인터뷰를 실시하였다. 인터뷰를 통해 도출된 결과를 바탕으로 국내 체류 외국인 근로자들이 빈번하게 접하는 정보매체를 이해하고, 적극적으로 활용하는 방안 등 실질적인 정보제공을 위한 함의를 도출하였다.

  • The purpose of this study was to analyze the trends, research methodology and findings of various researches on family resilience published in Korea over the past 13 years. A total of 93 publications related to family resilience between 1999 and June of 2012 were analyzed; 72 journal articles and 21 doctoral dissertations which had not been published in academic journals. The results are as follows; (1) There has been steady increase in the number of related researches since 1999, with a significant increase since the mid-2000s as various nontraditional families emerged and the perception of family problems began to change. (2) With regards to the methodology, the majority of the studies were empirical, using quantitative methods in both data collection and analysis. Most measurement scales employed were based on inventories developed by foreign researchers. (3) The research subjects encompass a wide range of individuals and groups from both vulnerable families and families from the general population. Additionally, some researches focused on special interest areas including program development & evaluation and scale development. Although research on family resilience has increased in quantity, there needs to be more qualitative, longitudinal and theory grounded studies on different families and individual types to better understand family resilience in depth. In addition, specific measurement scales reflecting the unique Korean family culture should be developed. Other challenges and suggestions for future research on family resilience are discussed.

  • The purpose of this study was to explore the typology of child care, investigate the characteristics of child care types, and analyze the differences in time deficit as well as time satisfaction by the types of child care for dual-earner couples with preschool children. The data source for this research was the 2009 Time Use Survey conducted by the Korea National Statistical Office. Dual-earners aged 20 to 59 years completed 1,568 time diaries, which were analyzed using chi-square, cluster analysis, and ANOVA analysis. Child care time was classified into three types in the three categories of child care, household work sharing and leisure sharing for both males and females respectively. Three types for husbands were named "vulnerable", "household work child care predominant" and "leisure predominant". The three types for wives were named "vulnerable", "household work child care oriented" and "household work child care". The characteristics of each type depended on age, education, weekly working hours, gender role of husbands and age, weekly working hours of wives. The vulnerable type of wives showed the highest level of time deficit. Based on the results, implications for Public policy on child care and various types of education as well as programs were suggested.
