The aim of this study was to achieve an understanding of the experiences of divided families in South Korea. The study adopted a qualitative method based on the interpretive science paradigm The participants were 14 elderly people who came from North Korea around 1950 and identified as belonging to the first generation of divided families. In-depth individual interviews were carried out, focusing on what divided families experienced after leaving their hometown, how these experiences affected their meaning-making about their homecoming, and how the divided community has changed. The result of theme analysis indicated that the first generation of divided families identified themselves as "people who lost their hometown." their hometown implied multiple losses, including their family members, socioeconomic status, and psychological support systems. The participants explained the process of their settlement and adaptation to South Korea based on the cohesion of the divided family community. However, they anticipated that the divided family community would fade away because of the aging of the first generation, the indifference of the second generation, and the frustration that existed about the reunion of the divided family members. The participants showed a realistic view on returning to their hometown after the reunification of North Korea and South Korea.

The purpose of this study was to examine the general characteristics and the variety of family life experiences related to the life satisfaction of multicultural families with school-aged children. Data were drawn from the first wave of the Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey conducted in 2010 and developed by the National Youth Policy Institute. Further, the sample for this study consisted of 95 multicultural families who met the requirements. The data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, the t -test, analysis of variance, and multiple regression using SPSS ver. 18.0. The main results showed that family life experiences that were made up of 5 domains, specifically time, leisure, household economy, health, and child education had a broad range of levels. In addition, family life experiences differed according to the general characteristics of multicultural families with school-aged children, such as mother's employment status, number of children, father's employment status and education level, and family composition. Lastly, their life satisfaction was significantly predicted by the father's employment status and health, children's age, children's education, and leisure in the order of significance. These findings suggested the need to expand the social intervention range for multicultural families with school-aged children, particularly in terms of family leisure and children's school life adaptation.

Purpose: This study examined the life experiences of the wives of men who were born with normal vision but gradually developed a visual impairment, with particular focus on their way of facing and coping with their life crisis. Method: A narrative approach was used to not only understand women's experiences within sociocultural contexts, but also reveal the subjective meaning of their personal life stories through their own voices. A purposive sample of three participants having husbands unexpectedly diagnosed with visual impairment during their marriage was recruited. The data were analyzed using the narrative analysis methods suggested by Clandinin and Connelly. Results: The wives took the crisis of their husbands' visual impairment as an economic crisis of the family. They faced a variety of difficulties, including extreme despair, role changes, and economic burdens. On the other hand, they tried to keep the family secure through a range of coping strategies that were motivated by compassion toward the husbands, maternal affection for the children, and a sense of responsibility for their families. Conclusion: This study revealed the need for financial support for temporarily disadvantaged families. In addition, various nursing and counseling programs for the family members will also be needed to help recover the family functions.

The study aimed to understand medical students' experiences of emotional changes, including their method of adapting to experiences, and the effect of the experiences in shaping their identities. We interviewed 12 medical students who were finishing their 1-year clinical internship in 2016. Data on their opinions and reasons for emotional changes during their school life were obtained. The descriptive phenomenological approach was applied to analyze the interviews. Their stress came from disappointment in themselves, competitive environment, observing a change in their personalities, meeting their parents' expectations, and interpersonal relations. The interviewees adjusted to the medical study by exercising self-control in their studies and daily lives, by practicing self-acceptance and observing their state of mind, and by breaking free from the competition-driven environment and obsession with grades. In addition, they cultivated endurance and found external support. Finally, they achieved self-efficacy and were comfortable in their identity as medical students. They still had to address the stress from working relationships and the difficulty in balancing studies and life. The medical students' self-evaluation and compulsive tendencies increased during the medical course due to the burden of studies. They evolved by learning self-control and introspection and seeking ways to adapt. Understanding this growth process of medical students will improve student support in medical schools.

본 연구는 대학도서관 사서들이 업무를 수행하면서 느꼈던 개인의 경험을 심층적으로 살펴보고, 그들의 직업적 경험과 그 이면에 숨겨진 주관적인 경험을 총체적으로 이해하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 4년제 사립대학교 도서관 사서들을 연구 참여자로 선정하여 심층 면담을 진행하였으며, Giorgi의 현상학적 분석 방법을 사용하여 자료를 분석하였다. 분석 결과 대학도서관 사서들의 직업에 대한 경험은 '사서 직업에 대한 양면적 이미지', '기대 인식과 현실과의 괴리', '대학 조직 내에서 차별적 인사', '직업적 경험으로부터 성장과 한계', '급격한 환경 변화에 대한 적응과 불안'으로 요약되었다. 구체적으로 살펴본 결과, 대학도서관 사서들은 매 순간 복잡한 맥락에서 딜레마에 부딪히고 이를 해결해 가는 과정을 연속적으로 경험하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구 결과를 바탕으로 대학도서관 사서들의 직업에 대한 이해를 심화하고, 인력 운영 및 근무 환경 개선을 위한 실질적인 방안을 마련하는데 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

본 연구는 중고령 성인학습자의 대학생활적응이 행복감에 미치는 영향을 알아보는데 목적을 둔다. 이를 위해 대구광역시 및 경북에 위치한 2년제 전문대학과 4년제 대학교에 재학 중인 중고령 성인학습자 321명을 대상으로 조사 및 분석하였으며, 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 중고령 성인학습자의 일반적 특성에 따른 대학생활적응은 50대와 2학년, 건강상태가 좋은편이다가 높게 나타났고, 행복감은 여성과 60대, 3학년, 부부만 사는 가구형태에서 높게 나타났다. 둘째, 중고령 성인학습자의 대학생활적응과 행복감 간에는 정적 상관관계가 있으며, 그 중 내적성장 만족과 의미추구 만족의 상관관계가 가장 높게 나타났다. 셋째, 중고령 성인학습자의 대학생활적응이 행복감에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 대학생활적응의 하위요소인 성인학생관계적응이 행복감에 가장 큰 영향을 미쳤다. 이상의 연구결과는 대학생활에서 경험하는 다양한 긍정적인 경험이 학생 관계와 심리적인 안정감 및 육체적인 긴장을 완화시키고 내적인 성장에 대한 스스로의 만족감을 향상시킴으로 행복감에 영향을 줄 수 있음을 시사한다.
