The purpose of this study was to develop and validate the Korea Family Strengths Scale II (KFSS-II) which was modified and developed by Yoo(2004). For this purpose, the preliminary scale of family strengths which was based on Yoo(2004)'s sample survey that targeted 494 adults who live in Korea consisted of 30 items. Exploratory factor analysis of 29 items extracted 5 factors. It included the 5 dimensional constructs of family resilience, valuing each other & acceptance, qualitative bonding, economic stability and cooperation and caring about community. Confirmatory factor analysis confirmed the stepwise 5-factor model of 22 items considering family strengths. These results indicated that the simple template of Family Strengths Scale would be a concise and reliable tool for assessing and evaluating a family's strengths.

The purpose of this study was examining the effects of family sandplay therapy with structural family therapy in improving the family strengths of children with emotional and behavioral disorders. First, we looked for a way to combine family sandplay therapy with structural family therapy and formulated an approach that could maximize the strengths of each theory and complement each other's weaknesses. And then we applied family sandplay therapy together with structural family therapy and analyzed its effects on family strengths. The subjects of this study were 10 families of children with emotional and behavioral disorders, and they were divided into an experimental group with 5 families and a control group with the other 5. To the experimental group received 16 sessions of family sandplay therapy with structural family therapy. In order to prove the effectiveness of family sandplay therapy with structural family therapy on family strengths, a family relationship( husband-wife relationship, parent-child relationship, and sibling relationship) scale and a family function(family cohesion, family adaptability) scale were used. The main findings of this study are as follows. First, the family relationships of the families with emotional-behavioral disorder children were improved after the application of family sandplay therapy with structural family therapy. Second, the application of family sandplay therapy with structural family therapy improved the family function of families with emotional-behavioral disorder children. Third, in the course of family sandplay therapy with structural family therapy, family sand tray was changed in a pro-healing direction, and family structure was also transformed from a dysfunctional structure to a functional one. As previously stated, family sandplay therapy with structural family therapy for families of children with emotional and behavioral disorders enhanced family strengths through improving family relationships and restoring family functions.

이 연구는 맞벌이교사들의 결혼만족도와 가족건강성을 규명하고자 하였다. 이 연구의 조사대상은 경남지역의 맞벌이교사 289명이며, 본 연구 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 맞벌이교사들의 결혼만족도는 7점 만점에 평균 5.22점으로서 결혼만족도를 긍정적으로 지각하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또 맞벌이 기혼교사들의 결혼만족도에 유의한 관련변인은 성별, 교육수준. 종교 유무, 가족형태, 가사조력자, 자아존중감, 직업만족도 등으로 나타났다. 2. 맞벌이교사들의 가족건강성은 5점 만점에 3.88점으로 가족건강성이 높게 나타났다. 그리고 맞벌이 교사들의 가족건강성에 유의한 관련변인은 가정의 월수입정도, 자아존중감, 직업만족도. 결혼만족도 둥으로 나타났다. 3. 맞벌이교사들의 결혼만족도와 가족건강성 간에는 정적인 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 즉 맞벌이교사들의 결혼만족도가 높을수록 가족건강성도 높아져 결혼만족도와 가족건강성 간의 불가분의 관계를 알 수 있었다. 결론적으로 맞벌이교사들의 결혼만족도는 양호하며 가족건강성도 높아서 직장과 가정생활을 잘 양립하고 있는 것으로 볼 수 있으나, 학생을 가르치는 교사들의 가족건강성이 좀 더 강화되어 학생들에게 더 나은 삶의 본보기가 될 필요가 있다하겠다.

이 연구는 맞벌이교사들의 가족스트레스와 대처전략, 그리고 가족건강성을 규명하고자 하였다. 이 연구의 조사대상은 경남지역의 맞벌이교사 289명이며, 본 연구 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 맞벌이교사들의 가족스트레스 정도는 5점 만점에 평균 2.90으로 나타났다. 맞벌이교사의 가족스트레스를 하위영역별로 보았을 때 '가사관련 스트레스'가 가장 높고 '부모역할 스트레스'는 근소한 차이로 두 번째로 나타났다. 2. 맞벌이교사들의 가족스트레스에 대한 대처전략 사용정도는 5점 만점에 평균 3.48점으로 나타났다. 대처전략을 하위영역별로 보았을 때 '인지 재구조화' 전략을 가장 많이 사용하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 3. 맞벌이교사들의 가족건강성은 5점 만점에 3.88점으로 가족건강성이 높게 나타났다. 그리고 맞벌이 교사들의 가족건강성에 유의한 관련변인은 가정의 월수입정도, 자아존중감, 직업만족도, 결혼만족도 등으로 나타났다. 4. 맞벌이교사의 가족건강성에 가장 영향을 미치는 변인은 가족스트레스 대처전략으로 이 변인 단독의 설명력이 약40%로서 매우 영향력 있는 변인으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 맞벌이교사들의 가족스트레스는 조금 있는 편이며, 가족스트레스 대처전략을 적극적으로 사용하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 맞벌이교사들의 가족건강성은 높게 나타나 맞벌이교사들이 직장과 가정생활을 잘 양립하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구에서 맞벌이교사들의 가족건강성을 좌우하는 가장 큰 요인으로는 가족스트레스 대처 전략이 밝혀져 앞으로 가족스트레스 대처전략을 육성할 수 있는 방안을 모색해야 하겠다.
