  • 해외로 이주한 이민자들의 언어능력 계발은 이민국 내에서 경제적으로 적응하는데 있어 중요한데, 이는 현지사회에서의 언어 소통능력이 이민국의 노동시장에 얼마나 적합한지 나타내는 이민자의 기술 수준 중에서 중요한 부분을 차지하기 때문이다. 게다가 언어는 이민자가 사회에 적응하고, 다양한 인종과 민족집단으로 구성된 미국과 같은 사회에서 사회적, 정치적 응집력을 나타내는 이민자의 기술 수준 중에서 중요한 부분을 차지하기 때문이다. 게다가 언어는 이민자가 사회에 적응하고, 다양한 인종과 민족 집단으로 구성된 미국과 같은 사회에서 사회적, 정치적 응집력을 나타내는 데 매우 중요한 역할을 담당한다. 이 연구의 주 목적은 미국 내의 한국인과 다른 아시아 이주자들의 영어능력에 대한 결정요인을 분석하는 것이다. 본 연구의 분석을 위해서 질적, 양적인 측면에서 가장 대표성을 담보하고 있는 미국의 센서스 자료(PUMS, A, 5%)를 이용하였다. 서열화된 범주를 가지고 있는 영어사용능력의 질적 격차를 분석하기 위해서 본 연구에서 사용된 통계기법은 Ordered Probit이다. 분석 결과는 미국에 오래 거주한 경우, 가족 중에 자녀가 있는 경우, 모국어가 보다 적게 사용되는 지역에 거주하는 경우, 이주를 할 때의 연령이 보다 낮은 경우, 학력이 보다 높은 경우에 영어를 보다 유창하게 사용한다는 사실을 알 수 있었다. 하지만, 아시아 이민자들의 영어사용능력의 수준은 출신국별 이민역사와 모국어의 차이별로 두드러진 차이가 존재하였다.

  • These days social and economical changes have influence on the structure of family and the role of family members. Working mothers and widowers with children are increasing because of economical difficulties. Support from relatives are decreasing because of the conspicuous trend toward nuclear families. According to these reasons androgynous fathers are required. Today's fathers in Korea socially and culturally have learned about traditional parenting, but they are changing their fathering styles to meet the demands of the times. However they don't have their own fathering models. Therefore nurses who hold an advantageous position to teach and support from clinic have to encourage them to care their infants. The purposes of this study were to define father's care giving in infancy, understand influencing factors on fathering, and the differences between fathering and mothering, then contribute to nursing implementation for supporting fathers. This study was designed to review references about father's care giving. The results were follows: Six aspects of parent participation were direct care. indirect care, play, decision-making concerning the child, amount of time of sole responsibility for the child and overall availability to the child. Direct care involved feeding, bathing, going to child if child awakens. dressing, putting child to bed, taking child to doctor, nurse, or dentist, transporting child to and from sitter, day care, or school, washing child's hair. Indirect care involved cleaning up after child, preparing child's food, fixing child's broken playthings, washing child's clothes, arranging baby-sitting, shopping for child's toys and clothes, transporting baby-sitter to and from your home. Young fathers were gradually participating in direct care like feeding, taking child to doctor. Father's care giving stimulated mothering and promoted parent-infant relationship. Influencing factors of fathering would be divided into father characteristics, surrounding factors, infant attributes. Father characteristics were age, role perception, relationship with parent. Surrounding factors were the opportunity of early contact, support system, spouse's expectation, marital adjustment, feeding type, past experience of care giving. Infant attributes were temperament, behavior, age, sex. The differences between fathering and mothering were reviewed. Fathers were poor at care giving. but their caring was similar to mother's. This subtle difference positively worked upon infant's growth and development. On the basis of these theoretical data, nurses can empower fathers to cooperate with mothers in caring infants.

  • 본 연구는 아동기의 주거빈곤기간이 청소년의 주관적 행복감에 어떻게 영향을 미치는지 확인하고자 한다. 특히 기존연구를 통해 청소년의 주관적 행복감의 주요 영향요인으로 알려져 있는 가족관계나 또래관계, 그리고 학교적응이 주거빈곤기간과 청소년의 행복감 사이를 매개하는지 살펴보고자 한다. 이를 통해 아동 청소년이 행복한 사회가 되기 위한 사회적 노력의 일환으로써 주거복지정책은 어떠한 방향으로 수립되어야 하는지 기초자료를 제공하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 한국복지패널 제1,4,7차년도 자료를 이용하였으며, 7차년도 아동부가조사에 최종 조사 완료한 512명의 고등학교 연령대 청소년을 대상으로 하였다. 분석을 위하여 구조방정식 모형을 사용하였으며, 주거빈곤기간은 최저주거기준미달기간과 주거비과부담기간을 통해 측정하였다. 매개변수로 사용한 가족관계는 부모의 교육참여, 부모의 지도 감독, 가족갈등을 통해 측정하였으며, 학교적응은 학교환경과 학교유대감, 그리고 또래관계는 친구애착과 친한 친구의 또래애착으로 측정하였다. 종속 변수는 청소년의 주관적 행복감 척도를 통해 측정하였으며, 청소년의 성별과 가구소득의 영향을 통제하였다. 분석 결과, 최저주거기준미달 기간이 길수록 가족관계와 청소년의 주관적 행복감에 부정적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 최저주거기준미달로 인한 부정적 가족관계는 청소년의 학교 적응과 또래관계에도 영향을 미쳐 청소년의 주관적 행복감에 부정적 영향을 주고 있었다. 주거비과부담기간의 경우 주거비과부담기간이 길어질수록 아동의 주관적 행복감이 직접적으로 부정적 영향을 받았다. 요컨대 최저주거기준미달기간의 경우 가족관계를 통한 간접적 효과가 있는 반면에 주거비과부담기간의 경우 아동의 주관적 행복감에 직접적으로 부정적 효과가 확인되었다. 주거빈곤기간이 길수록 아동권리보장의 최종상태라 할 수 있는 주관적 행복감에 부정적이라는 본 연구결과는 아동 청소년 가구의 주거빈곤문제를 감소시키기 위한 사회적 노력을 요구하고 있다.

  • Objectives : We developed the short form of the Mentalization Improvement Program for Adolescent-Community Model (MIPAdo-CM-S), based on the concept of the mentalization. Methods : The MIPAdo-CM was composed of 6 sessions and was applied to 133 students in the 1st grade of a middle school for six weeks during their regular school hours. After 6 weeks, we compared the endpoint changes of Adolescent Mental Problem Questionnaire-Revised (AMPQ-R), Emotional Empathy Test, Peer Aggression Scale, Peer Bullying Scale, School Adjustment Scale, Test Anxiety Inventory and Visual Analogue Scale between the subject and the control group. Results : On the Visual Analoge Scale, students in the trial classes reported an increased understanding and respect for others, as well as themselves. Conclusion : The efficacy of MIPAdo-CM was subjective improvement of understanding and respect for both others and themselves. To prove objective usefulness of this program, further studies should be administered in the form of long-term, regular and structured courses.

  • Agricultural Technology Center is an education center to provide agriculturalists with information and technology related with agriculture. As domestic and international environment of agriculture and rural area is changing, functions and roles of Agricultural Technology Center are evolving according to stream of times. In 1995, a new urban and rural complex city was created for symbiotic relationship between city and rural area, As a result, user group of Agricultural Technology Center expanded to nonagriculturalists. Though the change of agricultural extension service is necessary to perform extended functions of rural area and to satisfy needs of new group of users, it is difficult to find enough studies on new functions and roles of Agricultural Technology Center to manage the service change. Therefore, this study is aimed to suggest new functions and roles of Agricultural Technology Center according to stream of times. This study were surveyed through questionnaire targeting users of Namyangju Agricultural Technology Center to compare user group awareness of Agricultural Technology Center in urban and rural complex city. According to this study result, while main purpose of agriculturalists' visiting at Agricultural Technology Center was participating in education programs related with agriculture. In contrast, nonagriculturalists usually visited the center for agricultural understanding, leisure activities, and children education, participating in field work programs. From the survey result of required functions of the center, it was revealed that nonagriculturalists expected urban agriculture, research for living improvement in rural area, adjustment education for returning farmer, and function of farming promotion, comparing agriculturalists. It is verified that this difference of user group awareness reflects the necessity that Agricultural Technology Center should change services and accept increasing use of nonagriculturalists with new functions and roles.

  • This study compares, analyzes and reevaluates color conditions and images before and after the execution of the 7th curriculum with elementary schools in Gwang-ju Metropolitan City based on the fact that color among physical environments of elementary classrooms has an important influence on children's emotion and draws problems and aims to accumulate the basic materials for preparing guidelines of improving color environment at general classrooms of elementary schools. Consequently, according to color conditions, major colors on ceiling and wall were high brightness/nigh chroma of Y and YR line regardless of division of grades and other color factors of classroom showed that wall and ceiling used similar colors, but brightness was higher after change than before it. In evaluation of color images, lower grades showed negative color images such as 'common,' 'rustic,' and 'strange' before change, but they showed positive color images after change such as 'clean,' 'unique,' and 'soft'. But, most of higher grades showed negative reactions before change such as 'common,' 'strange,' and 'rustic' and they showed positive reactions after change only in such items as 'clean,' 'warm,' and 'unique', but Indicated negative reactions in remaining items such as 'strange,' 'rustic,' 'stiff,' and 'artificial'. Accordingly, in using colors for lower grade classroom, arrangement of colors through adjustment of brightness and chroma between ceiling, wall and other components based on coloring of high brightness and low chroma of similar colors should be considered and for higher grade classroom, arrangement of colors of unique images of mid-brightness/mid-chroma among warm color lines of similar colors should be examined.

  • Immigration to a nation with a stronger anti-smoking environment has been hypothesized to make smoking less common. However, little is known about how environments influence risk of smoking across the lifecourse. Research suggested a linear decline in smoking over the lifecourse but these associations, in fact, might not be linear. This study assessed the possible nonlinear associations between age and smoking and examined how these associations differed by environment through comparing Koreans in Seoul, South Korea and Korean Americans in California, United States. Data were drawn from population based telephone surveys of Korean adults in Seoul (N=500) and California (N=2,830) from 2001-2002. Locally weighted scatterplot smoothing (lowess) was used to approximate the association between age and smoking with multivariable spline logistic regressions, including adjustment for confounds used to draw population inferences. Smoking differed across the lifecourse between Korean and Korean American men. The association between age and smoking peaked around 35 years among Korean and Korean American men. From 18 to 35 the probability of smoking was 57% higher (95%CI, 40 to 71) among Korean men versus 8% (95%CI, 3 to 19) higher among Korean American men. A similar difference in age after 35, from 40 to 57 years of age, was associated with a 2% (95%CI, 0 to 10) and 20% (95%CI, 16 to 25) lower probability of smoking among Korean and Korean American men. A nonlinear pattern was also observed among Korean American women. Social role transitions provide plausible explanations for the decline in smoking after 35. Investigators should be mindful of nonlinearities in age when attempting to understand tobacco use.

  • Besides from medical data, the patients who were previously called as attention disorder, mental instability, moral imbeciles, or moral defectives, can also be identified by exploring literatures and historical figures. In the past, as we can notice from the titles, they were recognized as a 'moral defect group'. And rather than treating them, separation from the society was the main solution. After the endemic encephalitis from 1917 to late 1920s, however, many survivors suffered from behavioral problems similar to those of the previous 'moral defect group' and studies on the relationship between brain damage and behavior problems were started henceforth. After being known as the 'minimal brain dysfunction', it was developed into the current attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. While the disease concept changed and developed over time, after numerous trials and errors, treatment medication starting from central nervous system stimulants such as amphetamine and methylphenidate is used for treatment in children and adult patients with ADHD, and most recently non-stimulants such as atomoxetine has become the one of the first line treatment options. Although we went through a thorough verification process of the safety and efficacy of the medication by contemplating the historical development process, we believe that adjustment is needed for remaining concerns on medication abuse and slight differences in disease paradigm and therapeutic philosophy depending on cultures.
