This study focused on the relationships among emotionality, eating behavior problems, and behavior problems in a sample of 185 four- to five-year-old children attending kindergarten or a day care center in Seoul. The values were all measured by their teachers. The collected data were analyzed using simple regression and hierarchical multiple regression. The main results of this study were as follows. First, children's positive and negative emotionality each exerted negative and positive effects on their internalizing behavior problems. Second, children's positive emotionality had a negative influence on their eating behavior problems. On the other hand, children's negative emotionality had a positive influence on eating behavior problems. Finally, effect of children's positive emotionality on their eating behavior problems was partially mediated by internalizing behavior problems. On the other hand, the effect of children's negative emotionality on their eating behavior problems was totally mediated by their internalizing behavior problems.

This study examined the salutary effects of marital conflict resolution on children's behavior problems. The subjects were 487 4th and 6th grade students and their parents. Data were analyzed by multiple regression analyses of the SAS program. Children's problem behaviors were positively correlated with their perception of marital conflict. After intervention, children's perception of the resolution of marital conflict moderated their aggressive or immature behavior. Sex and age differences showed salutary effects of marital conflict resolution on boys' but not girls' behavior problems and on 6th grade students but not 4th grade students.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate problem behavior and its related factors in school-aged children. Methods: A descriptive correlational study was conducted with 221 mothers of children at 1st to 6th grades. Data were collected from March to April, 2015 using self-report structured questionnaires. Questionnaires included characteristics of subjects, Korean Child Behavior Checklist for measuring problem behavior and Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire for assessing sleeping habits. Collected data were analyzed by independent t-test, $x^2$ test, and multiple logistic regression. Results: In logistic regression analysis, having any maternal job (aOR=2.8, 95% CI=1.1~6.9) and higher daytime sleepiness (aOR=2.9, 95% CI=1.2~7.4) were statistically significant contributors of internal problems. Higher bedtime resistance (aOR=2.2, 95% CI=1.0~4.9) and higher daytime sleepiness (aOR=2.8, 95% CI=1.2~6.3) were statistically significant contributors of external problems. Higher bedtime resistance (aOR=4.3, 95% CI=1.5~12.4) was statistically significant contributors of total problem behavior. Conclusion: School-aged children with sleeping problem are at risk for problem behavior. More attention is need to consider sleeping habits for supporting behavioral improvement in school-aged children.

This study investigated the relationship of children's self-perceived competence and problem behavior by age and gentler. The subjects were 301 third and sixth grade children and their parents. Two-way ANOVA and Pearson's correlation revealed significant correlations between children's self-perceived competence and their problem behavior. In particular, withdrawal behavior was related to all aspects of self-perceived competence, i.e. cognitive, social, and Physical competence, and global self-worth.

본 연구는 미국 저소득 미혼모가구의 사회적 지지가 아동의 문제행동과 인지능력에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 스트레스-대응모델과 가족과정모델, 사회적 지지에 관한 이론적 관점을 기초로 사회적 지지가 아동발달에 영향을 제공하는 직접효과와 미혼모의 양육스트레스를 매개로 한 간접효과를 분석하였다. 본 연구를 위해 미국 취약가족아동복지연구의 종단패널자료를 사용하였으며, 전체 1,315명의 저소득 미혼모가구와 빈곤아동이 분석에 사용되었다. 분석결과, 사회적 지지는 아동문제행동에 직접적인 영향을 제공하는 것으로 분석되었으며, 양육스트레스를 매개로 한 간접효과도 발견되었다. 반면에 사회적 지지는 아동인지능력에 직접적으로 유의미한 영향을 제공하지는 않으나 양육스트레스와 아동문제행동을 매개로 한 간접효과를 제공하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구결과를 토대로 저소득 미혼모가구의 경제적 환경을 개선하고 양육스트레스를 완화하기 위한 정책적 함의와 서비스방안에 대해 논의하였다.

This study investigated the behavior problems of children, both institutionalized and home-reared, depending on their sex, age, and entry to institution. The subjects included 621 children (274 institutionalized, 347 home-reared; 298 boys and 323 girls; 209 preschoolers, 223 first to third graders, 189 fourth to sixth). The data collected were analyzed with t-test, 3-way ANOVA, Scheffe test, and Pearson's correlation. Children's emotionality had two sides: Positive (happiness) and negative (sadness, anger, and fear). Measures of behavior problems included internalization (anxiety, immaturity, withdrawal, physical symptom) and externalization (hyperactivity, aggression). The results of this study indicated that the institutionalized were higher in negative emotionality than their counterparts, whereas the home-reared higher in positive emotionality. The institutionalized children also had higher externalizing problems than the home-reared. Furthermore, children's negative emotionality was positively related to their internalizing and externalizing behavior problems, while their positive emotionality was negatively related to the internalizing behavior problems.

This study investigated preschoolers' happiness, behavior problems, and interpersonal problem solving strategies according to their sex and age, and the relationships among them. The subjects were 185 preschoolers (97 boys and 88 girls; 83 four-year-olds and 102 five-year-olds). Results showed that boys were higher in behavior problems (aggression) and forceful problem solving strategies than girls, while girls were higher in happiness (characteristics of self) than boys. Also, 4-year-old children were higher in forceful problem solving strategies than 5-year-olds. Children's happiness was negatively related to their internalizing and externalizing behavior problems. Behavior problems and interpersonal problem solving strategies of children were influenced by their happiness. These findings provide preliminary evidence that children's happiness may predict their behavior problems and interpersonal problem solving strategies.

The purposes of this study are to examine the economic conditions and parenting of custodial fathers/mothers and to explain their impacts on the children's social adjustment after divorce. A total of 185 custodial parents divorced within the last 5 years completed a structured questionnaire. Children's social adjustment was the dependent variable in this study and was defined as their school performance and behavior problems. Results show that compared with divorced custodial fathers, divorced custodial mothers demonstrate more effective parenting, but there were no differences in economic conditions between them. In addition, children in single-father divorced families have lower school grades and more behavior problems than those in single-mother divorced families. Results also indicate that the economic conditions and parenting have different effects for children across family type. For children raised with a custodial father in divorced families, the economic conditions and the divorce duration are associated with lower school grades and behavior problems. For children with a custodial mother, however, the effective of parenting and the children's age have significant effects on the children's social adjustment after the parent divorced. Based on these results, this study proposes strategies for the improvement of children's adjustment in divorced families.
