This study aims at exploring Korean mothers' beliefs on the development of emotion of their children. In specific, sensitivity and maternal reactions to their children's both negative and positive emotion expressions were explored. Further, associations among maternal sensitivity, maternal reactions and child emotion regulation were examined. A total of 100 Korean mothers whose children were between 6 and 7 years old participated in the study. In order to assess mothers' beliefs about sensitivity, vignettes in a forced-choice format were presented through individual interviews. Mothers' self reported reactions to their children's negative emotions and positive emotions and mothers' perceptions of children's emotion regulation were assessed using questionnaires. Results revealed that Korean mothers endorsed both proactive and reactive sensitivity. However, their sensitivity differed depending on the situation. Mothers tended to endorse either Emotion Focused or Problem Focused reactions to their children's negative emotions. Mothers reported that they were most likely to restrict their child positive emotional expression with explanation in supportive way followed by invalidating through reprimanding it. Mothers' reported Distress Reactions and Punitive Reactions to children's expression of negative emotion were associated with children's liability whereas Emotion-Focused Reaction and Problem-Focused Reaction were associated with children's functional emotion regulation. The results are discussed within a theoretical framework of socialization of emotions.

본 연구는 유아의 사회적 위축에 관심을 가지고, 어머니의 거부적 양육행동과 정서표현성 및 유아의 정서조절전략이 사회적 위축에 어떠한 방식으로 영향을 미치는지 알아보고자 하였다. 구체적으로 어머니의 거부적 양육행동이 사회적 위축에 미치는 영향을 어머니의 정서표현성이 중재하는지, 유아의 정서조절전략이 매개하는지를 살펴보았다. 이를 위하여 어린이집의 만 4, 5세 학급 유아 223명(남아 121명, 여아 102명)과 그들의 어머니, 그리고 담임교사 20명을 대상으로 하였다. 연구 결과, 유아의 사회적 위축에 대하여 어머니의 거부적 양육행동은 정적 상관을, 긍정적 정서표현성은 부적 상관을, 유아의 정서조절전략 중 감정발산 교사지원전략, 회피 무반응 전략은 정적 상관관계를 보였다. 다음으로 사회적 위축에 대한 어머니의 거부적 양육행동의 영향을 긍정적 정서표현성이 중재하였다. 즉, 어머니의 거부적 양육행동과 유아의 사회적 위축의 관계는 어머니의 긍정적 정서표현성 수준이 낮은 경우에만 유의하였다. 마지막으로 어머니의 거부적 양육행동이 유아의 사회적 위축에 미치는 영향은 정서조절전략 중 감정발산 교사지원전략이 부분 매개하였다.

The purpose of this study was to analyse the principles and methods of Taegyo-Singi with regard to emotion and to review basic informations on Taegyo programs for promoting prenatal development. Taegyo-Singi was analyzed as follows. First, the contents of Taegyo-Singi were classified into principles and methods of Taegyo. Second, the domains of emotion were categorized into emotional perception, emotional expression, emotional understanding, and emotional regulation based on the classification of Mayer and Salovey, and Moon. Third, the contents of Taegyo-Singi were classified into the four domains of emotion. Finally, the reliability and validity of the classification were obtained through inter-rater agreement and analysis of content validity. The results indicated that first, the principles of Taegyo presuppose parental influence on temperament formation, and that the emotional states of the mother in the prenatal and prepregnancy period is the most influential variable in a child's temperament formation. Second, the methods of Taegyo presuppose that the human mind interacts with their behavior. Therefore, through emotional support of family members, 'jon-sim (the serene mind)' and 'chung-sim (the mind from rectitude)' are the key methods of Taegyo. This means that the Korean tradition of Taegyo focused on the emotional domain of development, especially emotional regulation. This coincides with the emotion-focused temperament theory that individual differences in temperament reflect individual differences in emotion.

본 연구는 어머니의 일상적 스트레스, 아동의 인지조절과 정서조절이 아동의 학교준비도에 미치는 직접적인 영향 뿐 아니라 어머니의 일상적 스트레스가 아동의 인지조절과 정서조절을 통해 아동의 학교준비도에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고자 하였고, 아동의 성별에 따른 매개효과의 차이를 검증하고자 하였다. 연구대상은 서울시 송파구, 경기도 용인시 및 분당구의 유치원과 어린이집 4곳에 재원 중인 만5세반 취학전 아동 273명과 그들의 어머니 273명이었다. 본 연구에서 수집된 자료는 SPSS 24.0과 Mplus 6.0($Muth{\acute{e}}n$ & $Muth{\acute{e}}n$, 2010)을 사용해 Pearson의 적률상관분석 및 적합도 지수를 통해 가설의 적합성을 확인하였고, 매개효과를 검증하기 위해서 구조방정식 모형(Structural Equation Modeling: SEM)을 사용하였다. 또한 아동의 성별에 따른 경로의 통계적 유의성 차이를 살펴보기 위해 다중집단분석(multi group analysis)을 실시하였다. 본 연구를 통해 나타난 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 어머니의 일상적 스트레스는 아동의 인지조절 및 정서조절에 직접적으로 부적영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 아동의 인지조절은 아동의 학교준비도의 하위요인 중 단체생활을 위한 기본자세 및 학습활동을 위한 능력에 직접적으로 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났고, 아동의 정서조절은 아동의 학교준비도의 하위요인 중 사회정서적 유능성에 직접적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 어머니의 일상적 스트레스는 아동의 인지조절을 매개로 아동의 학교준비도의 하위요인 중 단체생활을 위한 기본자세 및 학습활동을 위한 능력에 영향을 주었으며, 아동의 정서조절을 매개로 아동의 학교준비도의 하위요인 중 사회적 유능성에 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 남아의 경우에는 어머니의 일상적 스트레스가 아동의 인지조절에 미치는 영향이 여아의 경우보다 적은 반면에, 인지조절이 아동의 학교준비도의 하위요인 중 단체생활을 위한 기본자세에 미치는 영향은 여아보다 큰 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구는 좌절 상황에서 3세 유아가 보이는 정서조절 전략의 양상을 살펴보고, 유아의 전략과 그에 반응하는 어머니의 전략 간의 상관을 알아보는 것을 목적으로 한다. 만 3세 유아와 어머니 33쌍을 대상으로 한 실험 관찰을 실시하였다. Stansbury와 Sigman(2000)의 도구를 한국의 문화적 실정에 맞춰 수정 보완하여 사용하였는데, 이 도구는 2개의 좌절 상황에서 유아의 정서조절 전략과 어머니의 반응 전략을 위안, 도구, 인지 재평가, 주의전환, 기타의 5가지로 구분한다. 연구 결과, 3세 유아들은 인지 재평가를 포함한 복잡한 전략을 사용하는 것으로 나타났다. '장난감 정리 과제'(Clean-up) 좌절상황에서는 도구적 전략을 가장 많이 사용하였고, '사탕 지연 과제'(Candy given then denied)의 상황에서는 주의전환 전략을 가장 많이 사용하였다. 유아의 정서조절 전략과 어머니의 반응 전략 간에는 유의미한 정적 상관관계가 나타났다.

Roles of mother who does the biggest emotional exchange with the child after birth may have substantial association with the childhood behavioral problems. In this connection, the present explanatory study was conducted for the purpose of understanding the causal structural relationship in which mother's child caring behaviors affect child behavioral problems. The data collection period was July 2 - 7, 2001. The subject was 4th, 5th, 6th graders' mothers in 4 elementary schools located in Daejoen city and 299 surveys were used in the analysis. As for the tools used in this study to assess the mother's child caring Behavior Scale by Park, Seong-Yeon and Yi, Sook (1990) was used to measure the mother's behaviors. The child behavioral problems were measured with the Korean-Child Behavior Checklist (K-CBCL), standardized into the Korean version by O, Gyung-Ja, Yi, Hye-Ryon, Hong, Gang-Eui, and Ha, Eun-Hye. For the data processing, the frequency and the percentage were calculated, and the analyses of variance, correlation were carried out. The result of this study is summarized as follows: First, the examination of the effect of mother's general characteristics on the mother's caring behavior shows that significant differences are made by the active participation (p=0.020) in the occupation, affection(p=0.000), authority control(p=0.013), achievement(p=0.030), active participation(p=0.032) in the education level, consistency regulation(p=0.007) in the religion. Second, the examination of the effect of mother's caring behaviors on the child behavioral problems shows that significant differences are made by some child behavioral problems in the affection, achievement, consistency regulation, authority control, over protection caring behaviors. Third, as for the correlation between mother's child caring behavior and child behavioral problems, a significant correlation is revealed between the negative child caring behavior and child behavioral problems.
