In this comparison of the relative effects of children's separation from their parents, socio-emotional adjustment was assessed by emotional and behavioral problems and emotional intelligence. Subjects were 502 elementary school children separated from their parents(162 in Yanbian and 340 in Korea) and their caregivers. Data analysis was by frequency, t-test, and multiple regression controlled by gender and grade in school. Caregivers living with children and their parenting efficacy were significant variables for the development of socio-emotional adjustment in Korean-Chinese children in Yanbian, but reasons for parent-child separation, caregivers' psychological and behavioral characteristics, and SES were significant variables for children in Korea. Implications are that regional differences should be considered in understanding and supporting the development of children's socio-emotional adjustment.

The primary focus of the study assesses how individual spouses' and their partners' marital adjustment influence their own and their mental health. The study also examines whether this influence was mediated by the relationship with their adult-children. Data were collected from 271 dyads of elderly couples by using a self-report questionnaire. Marital adjustment was measured in terms of intimacy and comparison level of marriage. Mental health was measured in terms of depressive mood, anxiety, and somatization. The Actor-Partner Interdependence Model (APIM) analysis revealed that marital adjustment was positively associated with one's own mental health and with one's own relationship with their adult-children, but not with their partner's. On the other hand, the relationship with adult-children was positively associated with one's own and with their partner's mental health. Furthermore, analysis of the mediating model using APIM indicated that marital adjustment through one's own adult-children relationship had direct and indirect effects on one's own mental health. It is interesting to note that the wives' mental health were directly influenced by their partners' relationship with adult-children. However, the effect of the husbands' mental health was not significant. These findings highlight dyadic interdependence among spouses' perceptions of marital and adult-children relationship with their mental health. The results suggest implications for educators and clinicians working with elderly couples to improve their psychological and relational health.

본 연구의 목적은 영유아 개인변인(성별, 연령, 기질), 또래유능성, 교사관계와 어린이집 적응과의 관계를 살펴보고, 나아가 이러한 변인들이 어린이집 적응에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 알아보는 것이다. 이를 위하여 수도권에 위치한 어린이집에 다니고 있는 2, 3세 영유아 130명과 학부모, 그리고 담임교사 13명을 대상으로 개인변인, 또래유능성, 교사관계, 어린이집 적응에 대해 질문지를 이용해 평가하였다. 그 결과 첫째, 영유아의 연령에 따른 적응에는 유의한 차이가 없었으나 성별 및 기질에 따라 차이가 있었다. 즉, 여아가 남아보다 더 잘 적응하였으며, 새로운 자극에 대한 회피성이 높고 지구성이 낮을수록 잘 적응하였다. 둘째, 영유아의 또래유능성에 있어서 사교성, 친사회성, 주도성이 높을수록 전반적으로 더 잘 적응하였다. 셋째, 영유아가 교사와 친밀할수록 그리고 갈등이 적고 의존성이 낮을수록 어린이집에 전반적으로 더 잘 적응하였다. 넷째, 영유아의 어린이집 적응에 대한 개인변인, 또래유능성 및 교사관계 변인의 상대적 영향력을 분석한 결과, 개인변인은 유의한 영향력이 나타나지 않았으며 교사와의 갈등 정도, 또래관계의 주도성, 그리고 교사와의 친밀감 순으로 유의한 영향력을 보였다. 마지막으로 본 연구의 제한점과 함께 후속연구를 위한 제언을 제시하였다.

본 연구의 목적은 한부모가정여부가 아동의 자기보호와 미디어 노출을 통해 학교적응에 영향을 미치는지를 분석하고 자기보호와 미디어노출의 이중매개효과를 검증하는 것이다. 이를 위해 한국청소년정책연구원의 한국아동 청소년패널조사데이터의 초4학년패널 4차년도 자료를 활용하였으며 이에 따라 총 1,916명의 아동 자료를 분석에 포함하였다. 주요한 통계방법으로는 인과관계 검증을 위해 구조방정식모형 분석과 다중매개모형 특정간접효과(specific indirect effect)를 확인하기 위해 팬텀모형(phantom model)에 의한 Bootstrapping 방법을 적용하였다. 분석 결과, 한부모가정여부는 아동의 학교적응에 직접적인 영향력을 미칠 뿐 아니라, 아동의 자기보호를 통해서도 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 아동의 자기보호와 미디어 노출은 한부모가정여부가 학교적응에 영향을 미치는 경로에 이중매개효과가 있는 것으로 검증되었다. 즉, 한부모 가정은 일반가정에 비해 아동 자기보호 수준이 높으며, 이는 미디어 노출을 증가시키고 학교적응에 부정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이 결과는 아동 자기보호와 미디어노출에 관련한 정책이 한부모가정 아동의 학교 적응을 도울 수 있음을 시사한다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 본 연구는 한부모가정이라는 구조적 특성과 그에 따른 특수한 욕구에 맞는 방과후 돌봄과 아동 미디어노출 관련 정책적, 실천적 제언을 하였다.

This study investigated the longitudinal effects of family risk factors, parent-child relationships, and language abilities of children in low-income families in terms of both school adjustment and academic performance. The subjects were 176 children aged 5 to 7 and their mothers. They participated in follow up studies over the next 3 years. The children were tested using the Wechsler Intelligence Scales and language tests; and classroom teachers rated their levels of both school adjustment and academic performance. Mothers reported parent-child relationships, maternal depression, and family economic resources. Data were analyzed using Pearson's correlation, and structural equation modeling (SEM). Our results indicated that there were direct effects of language abilities, and indirect effects of parent-child relationships and maternal depression upon children's school adjustment and academic performance. It was also revealed that language abilities had a mediating effect between parent-child relationship and school adjustment/ academic performance.

The purpose of this study was to explore the parenting experiences of mothers of disabled children. The study focused on how mothers of disabled children prepared for their children's transition to elementary school and how they experienced their children's adjustment to school. Twenty mothers of children with developmental or intellectual disabilities participated in the study. Each mother had experienced an inclusive education program at an elementary school for more than a year. Twelve mothers have children with intellectual disabilities and eight have children with developmental disabilities. Individual in-depth interviews were carried out to collect qualitative data. To analyze the data, the research followed the phenomenological analysis method of Giorgi. The results showed that mothers of disabled children were actively involved with inclusive day care centers and therapy programs to prepare for children elementary school. Most wished to send their children to a general elementary school with an inclusive program, although decision making was not easy. When their children entered elementary school, some mothers observed their children's struggle with school and their peer relationships. They sought support from teachers and other mothers. These mothers showed a desire for their children's social independence. This study highlighted the necessity to develop support programs for disabled children and their mothers.
