본 연구는 개념도 방법을 활용하여 영재 자녀를 둔 어머니의 양육 스트레스를 실증적으로 탐색하고자 하였다. 이 연구에서는 영재 자녀를 둔 12명의 어머니들이 지각하고 있는 양육 스트레스에 대한 브레인스토밍 진술문들을 종합하여 최종적으로 79개의 진술문을 도출하였고, 이들 79개의 진술문에 대한 비유사성 평정 자료를 사용하여 다차원 척도분석을 실시한 결과 2차원 개념도 제작에 적합한 .273의 stress 값을 얻었다. 또한 101명의 영재아 어머니들을 대상으로 도출된 양육 스트레스를 얼마나 공감하고 경험하는가를 물었다. 다차원 척도 분석을 통해 도출된 개별 진술문들의 좌표 값을 이용하여 위계적 군집 분석을 실시한 결과, 범주의 개수는 총 3개로 분류하는 것이 가장 적절하다고 판단하였다. 위계적 군집 분석결과 도출된 군집에 대한 명명은 좌표 상에 표시된 진술문들의 상대적 위치, 범주에 묶인 진술문 내용과 연구 참여자들이 카드분류 단계에서 기술한 범주 명을 고려하여 '영재부모로서의 부담과 갈등', '영재성으로 인해 발생 가능한 부정적인 행동 특성', '영재라는 타이틀의 자부심과 그 이면'으로 명명하였다. 영재부모로서의 부담과 갈등 범주가 가장 높은 평균을 보여 이 범주와 관련한 양육스트레스가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 특히 '자녀의 진로에 대한 어떠한 구체적인 도움을 주어야 하는지 걱정이다(M=4.65)', '자기주도적인 사람으로 성장하기를 바라면서도 불안한 마음에 자녀의 행동에 개입하는 것이 많지는 않은지 생각해 보게 된다(M=4.60)', '초등학교 시절에서 영재과정을 마친 후, 다음 단계에서도 영재로 선발되기 위해 뒷받침을 잘 해 주어야 한다는 부담이 있다(M=4.46)', '시간적, 물질적 투자의 부재로 인하여 자녀가 소질을 더 계발하지 못하는 것이 아닌가 하는 아쉬움이 있다(M=4.44)', '부모의 높은 기대 때문에 자녀에게 부담을 주는 것 같아 미안하다(M=4.43)' 등의 항목들이 상대적으로 더 높은 평균을 보여 이와 관련한 영재어머니들의 스트레스를 알 수 있었다. 본 연구의 결과는 영재 자녀 및 부모교육과 관련하여 그 시사점이 논의되었다.

본 연구는 출생 3개월 이전에 정상아인줄 알고 입양한 후, 양육과정에서 장애가 드러난 장애아동을양육하는 입양어머니의 내적 경험을 Van Manen(2000)의 해석학적 현상학 연구방법으로 접근하였다. 서울 광주 경남 전북에서 6명의 어머니를 대상으로 심층 인터뷰하였다. 연구결과, '안개 속을 헤메임, 삭히는 시간, 고통 중의 감사, 세상에 당당히 맞섬, 내 삶의 중심으로 들어 온 아픈 아이, 아직 살아보지 않은 날에의 기대'로 도출된 본질적 주제를 통해 '아픈 아이의 꿈을 이뤄주고 싶은 엄마마음'으로 해석학적 글쓰기를 하였다. 조금은 부족한 아이이므로 더 잘 키워주어 아이의 꿈을 이뤄주고 싶은 어머니의 마음은 결국 한 생명에 대한 사랑이었다. 긴 가슴앓이의 시간 후, 입양어머니에게 아이의 장애는 짐이 아니라 새로운 세상에의 기대로 나타나고 있고, 아동의 홀로서기를 만들어내고 있으며, 세상의 모든 아이는 가정을 가질 수 있음을 나타내고 있다.

Using 2004 Household Income & Expenditure Survey, this study investigated difference in consumption pattern among the households with the different number of children, and estimated the monetary cost of rearing children. The findings were as following. First, the major consumption categories for raising children included the expenditures for education, food materials, utility, health, and communication. Second, the potential consumption needs for clothing & foot ware and culture & entertainment were not fully satisfied for the households with children compared to the households without children. Third, in the households with one child, the level of consumption was about two thirds of that in the households without children. It was slightly above half in the households with two children. Lower consumption level of the households with children was mainly due to the burden of the educational expenditure. Forth, the average monthly cost of raising children was estimated by 680 thousands Won for one child, and 104 thousand Won for two children. Lastly, the implications for the fertility policy and the methods for the estimation of the child cost were suggested based on the results.

Purpose: This study presents a translation, cultural adaptation, and psychometric evaluation of two instruments of the Fertility Awareness and Attitudes Towards Parenthood (FAAP) questionnaire (Conditions and Life changes) for use in South Korea. Methods: This methodological study included 166 university students for psychometric evaluation in the sixth step. The first five steps included forward translation, backward translation, committee review, assessment of content validity, and a pre-test. In the sixth step, psychometric properties, including internal consistency, construct validity, and criterion validity, were evaluated. Exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis were conducted to identify the structure of the tool and to assess its validity. Results: The Korean version showed acceptable internal consistency. Cronbach's α was .73 for FAAP-Conditions and .83 for FAAP-Life changes. FAAP-Conditions showed a four-factor structure (social conditions, relationship with partner, external environment, and child-rearing support) and FAAP-Life changes had a two-factor structure (reward and burden). In the confirmatory analysis, CMIN/DF, TLI, IFI, SRMR, CFI, and RMSEA were satisfactory. Conclusion: This study provided preliminary evidence of the acceptability, reliability, and validity of the Korean version of the FAAP questionnaire in university students in South Korea. Nonetheless, further evaluation among Korean young adults is warranted to validate this instrument.

Objectives: The objective of this study is to understand the factors having effects on the view of marriage of female university students, and also to present the reference data for establishing the measures for having the positive view of marriage of female university students. Methods: An online survey was conducted targeting total 254 female university students of two universities in Gyeonggi region, from October 1 st to November 13th 2020. The results of this study are as follows. Results: First, to the question related to the intent to marry, total 70% of them responded that they had intent to marry. In the time of marriage, they said they would marry when getting financially stable. The 30% of subjects said that they would choose non-marriage because they wanted to continuously enjoy free life and they did not want to bear burden related to childbirth and child-rearing. Second, in the results of analyzing differences in the view of marriage according to the general characteristics, the students with intent to marry showed the higher romantic view of marriage, instrumental view of marriage, and exclusive view of marriage than the students without intent to marry, which showed significant differences. Third, the view of marriage were the factors having the greatest effects on the intent to marry of female university students. Conclusion: Based on such results of this study, it would be necessary to focus on the policies that could positively change the view of marriage of female university students. It would be needed to establish the social·institutional support measures for work-life balance by reducing women's burden of childbirth and child-rearing. To the question about the time of marriage, the most subjects responded that they would do so when the economic ability and stable job were equipped. Thus, there should be the systematic youth employment support system that could help the students to quickly and stably enter society and to become financially independent after graduation. Also, for the formation of positive family relation, it would be necessary to develop·operate the educational programs for forming positive family relation and desirable communication methods for each subject(spouse, parents, children, siblings, and etc.).

purpose of this study was to compare the direction of work-family balance policy with the family support of Chosun Dynasty by reviewing the literature of the period, including diaries of "Soemilok" and "Miamilki" and letters written by Yangban. The major findings drawn from the literature were as follows: The husbands in Chosen, especially as public officials, were under strong obligation to support their family like working wives in modern society. They were able to care for and support their families and maintain their careers due to flexibility in their office hours. They had dual burdens of home management and outside labor but their requests for the necessities of life were resolved promptly in public offices. From this result, it was argued that the policy for dual burden for women would benefit from a consideration for flexibility and reduction of working hours. Especially it was emphasized that the border between home and work place should be more open and the relationship of family should be supported by work-family balance policy.

The number of nurses per bed at acute-stage hospitals is quite low in Korea compared with other OECD countries. In order to prevent the degradation of the quality of inpatient nursing services due to insufficient nurse staffs, the national health insurance introduced the differentiated nursing care fee system. This did not work as a motive for inducing the employment of nursing staff due to insufficient cost compensation. Because of insufficient nursing staff, family members have to stay with the patient or patients have to hire a personal care attendant. This increases the burden and cost to families. For the activation of hospitals without guardians, there should be policies for raising additional nursing staff such as standardizing jobs among nursing staff, particularly between nurses and nursing assistants, setting adequate standards of staffing in nursing according to medical service, substantiating the cost of nursing under the differentiated nursing care fee system, improving the medical fee system of hospitals without guardians including health insurance payment, supplying nursing staff stably through improving their working conditions such as providing child rearing services and salary increase, clarifying the qualification of personal care attendants working at acute.stage hospitals, developing indexes for assessing the quality of nursing care services, and monitoring for the management of uniform quality.

The study examined work and family life of married women employed in a manufacturing industry. Data were gathered from the use of face-to-face interview method from a sample of 230 married working women. The major findings of this study can be summarized as follows: (1) Most of the respondents found the work repetitive and unappealing, with the double burden of a paid work and housework. Thus, it is necessary for the government to implement social policies for married working women, such as establishment of various child care centers, part-time jobs, and dissemination of egalitarian sex-role attitudes. (2) More than half of the respondents were born in rural areas and immigrated to the urban sectors, forming a nuclear family structure. Most of these women were married with love, but some of them could not have a marriage ceremony because of the economic reasons. Thus, it may be necessary to increase the service centers to offer a free marital ceremony. (3) About 30% of the respondents answered they left their preschool aged children unattended, after dismissing from a kindergarden on a private institution. It was shown that working women, even though they were in charge of child-rearing, did not have an effective mechanism to control or protect their children while they were away from home. Most of them frequently used material compensations from their children in order to make up their absence at home. (4) It was found that the strategy for working women to decrease a dual-role conflict is to make a hierachy on the work they to do and to do only basic housework for everyday life and to do the rest of work on a off-day.
