Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate the factors influencing suicidal ideation in middle school students. Methods: Suicidal Ideation Questionnaire (SIQ) results, personal characteristics, child abuse experiences, and stress were obtained from a sample of 657 middle school students from 3 conveniently selected schools in S city. Results: Suicidal ideation of participants was positively correlated with child abuse experience, stress, psychosomatic symptoms, antisocial personality and depressive tendencies, whereas sociability and self-esteem were negatively correlated with suicidal ideation. Significant factors influencing suicidal ideation included an antisocial personality tendency, stress related to the family environment, mental abuse, gender (female), depressive trend, running away from home, sociability, and stress related to academic performance. These factors explained 39.9% of the variance. Conclusion: These results suggest that earlier screening and intervention programs for depression and stress in middle school students will be helpful in reducing suicidal ideation. Further studies are needed in which other strategies that could prevent suicidal ideation in middle school students are examined.

본 연구는 영아보육교사의 내적 교육신념인 교수효능감과 직무스트레스에 대해서 알아보고 영아보육교사의 교수효능감과 직무스트레스의 상관관계 및 교수효능감이 직무스트레스에 미치는 영향력은 어떠한지 알아보고자 하였다. 연구대상은 경기지역 국공립, 민간, 가정 보육시설에서 근무하고 있는 36개월 미만의 영아반 교사를 대상으로 설문조사를 하였다. 결과처리를 위하여 ANOVA분석, 상관관계분석, 다중회귀분석을 수행하였다. 연구결과로 첫째, 영아보육교사의 교수효능감은 보통보다 높게 나타났으며 일반적 교수효능감이 개인적 교수효능감보다 높게 나타나 전반적으로 영아보육교사 자신의 교수효능감을 높게 인식하고 있음을 알 수 있다. 둘째, 영아보육교사의 직무스트레스는 보통보다 낮게 나타났다. 하위 영역별로 보면 업무관련 스트레스가 가장 높았으며 다음으로 영아들과의 활동 스트레스, 개인관련 스트레스 순으로 높게 나타났다. 셋째, 교수효능감과 직무스트레스간의 관계는 부적 상관관계를 보였다. 교수효능감의 하위 요인 중에서 일반적 교수효능감은 직무스트레스와 상관성이 없는 것으로 나타났으며, 개인적 교수효능감 만이 유의미한 부적상관을 보였다. 영아보육교사의 교수효능감이 직무스트레스에 미치는 영향력은 개인적 교수효능감 만이 직무스트레스에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며 개인적 교수효능감이 높을수록 직무스트레스는 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 일반적 특성 중에서는 교육수준, 월 급여, 근무시간이 직무스트레스에 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 교육수준이 높을수록, 월 급여가 적을수록, 근무시간이 많을수록 영아보육교사의 직무스트레스는 높아진다는 것을 의미한다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 영아보육교사의 교수효능감을 향상시키고 직무스트레스를 감소시키는 방안을 제시하였다.

A questionnaire and checklist were used to collect data, which was analyzed with SPSS 11.5 Win program. Results: Most of the teachers were anxious about child accidents, and thought of safety as a primary concern. The mean score for knowledge on safety was 10.23, and the rate of correct answers ranged from 34.8％ to 98.3％. The mean score on practice of safety was 42.01. Teachers with higher education showed significantly higher scores in safety efficacy. Teacher's knowledge on safety was significantly different depending on the experience of safety education, but this did not apply to safety practice. Safety practice was significantly related to confidence in safety performance, health beliefs on safety, stress, and social support, but not related to knowledge of safety.

This study investigated child's self-esteem by the mediational role of mother's parenting self-efficacy and its relations to perceived social support, parenting behavior, and stress, and to child's temperament and gender. Participants were 403 Korean children(188 boys, 215 girls) and their mothers living in Seoul. Structural equation modeling for boys and girls and their mothers indicated that parenting self-efficacy mediated the relation between social support and parenting behaviors including Warmth-Acceptance and Rejection-Restriction. In these models, parenting self-efficacy related to child's self-esteem through parenting behavior. Child's temperament related to self-esteem directly in three parenting behavior models. In Permissiveness-Nonintervention, parenting self-efficacy mediated between social support and self-esteem in both boy's and girl's models, between child's temperament and self-esteem in only boy's model.

Multiple regression analysis was used in order to examine the factors influencing the subjects' burnout. Results: Burnout in general characteristics differed significantly according to age (F=4.81, p=.011). As the most influential factors for burnout, emotional labor (${\beta}=.43$) had statistically significant correlation with it, along with job stress (${\beta}=.16$) and age (${\beta}=.14$). These variables explained burnout ($Adj.R^2=0.29$, p<.001) at a rate of 29%. Conclusion: It is judged that strategies and continuous management aimed at reducing child care helpers' emotional labor and job stress are necessary. As an approach from different aspects, it is required that variables related to emotional labor, job stress, and burnout are identified and there would be more researches in order to establish some national policies for child care helpers.
