The demand and supply of programs of parenthood programs for fathers are increasing with changes in the image of male parents. Under this backdrop, a necessary requirement is to analyze the current status of father programs that are spearheaded by governments and the satisfaction with them to determine if they actually meet the needs of fathers. This study conducted such an examination for the fatherhood programs that were provided as a mandatory public service by the Healthy Family & Multicultural Family Support Center in 2017. To this end, the research analyzed performance and satisfaction data on 776 projects, including 1293 programs that were required for provision in 101 integrated centers nationwide. The results showed that satisfaction with fatherhood programs differed according to the project area, the location of a center, the period of implementation, the methods of proceeding, the participation unit (whether an entire family or an individual family member), the number of participants, and the number of sessions. Overall, the level of satisfaction was higher in "fathers meetings" (under the community domain) than "support for the father role" (under the family relationship domain). In relation to implementation period, satisfaction with the programs was high in the 4th quarter of implementation. Satisfaction with the programs was also higher for culturally based initiatives than education-oriented programs. Satisfaction was higher when the participation unit was the family than when such unit was the individual. The smaller the number of participants, the higher the satisfaction level. Finally, the number of sessions was deemed satisfactory when it was completed in more than four sessions. This study is meaningful in that it provides the basis of effective use of the government budget by analyzing the status and satisfaction of the fatherhood programs, which have been implemented since the integration of the Healthy Families & Multicultural Family Support Center.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate perceptions of fatherhood among fathers of high-risk neonates and their confidence regarding neonatal care. Methods: A study was conducted of 100 fathers whose neonates had been admitted to a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) for at least 48 hours. Perceptions of fatherhood, neonatal characteristics, and fathers' confidence regarding neonatal care were measured using a self-reported questionnaire. The survey took approximately 10 minutes to complete and was completed anonymously. The factors that affected fathers' confidence regarding neonatal care were analyzed using multiple regression. Results: The scores for positive and negative perceptions of fatherhood were relatively high at 4.27 and 3.42 out of 5 points, respectively. A positive perception of fatherhood was found to influence fathers' confidence regarding neonatal care. Conclusion: NICU nurses should encourage fathers to effectively perform their parenting roles by implementing educational programs and interventions to promote positive perceptions of fatherhood and fathers' confidence regarding neonatal care after discharge.

본 연구의 목적은 지역사회 아버지대상 프로그램에 참여한 아버지들을 대상으로 프로그램 종료 후 FGI를 통해 프로그램이 아버지와 그 가족의 삶에 어떤 영향을 미쳤는지 심층적으로 살펴보는 것이다. 연구대상으로 선정된 아버지 참여 프로그램은 4개 건강가정다문화가족지원센터의 총 5개 프로그램이었다. 포커스 그룹 인터뷰는 각 아버지참여 프로그램에 대해 3-5명으로 구성된 그룹으로 총 20명을 대상으로 수행되었다. 면접내용을 내용분석을 통해 총 16개의 개념을 추출하여 7개의 카테고리와 2개의 소주제로 분류하여 기술하였다. 마지막으로 분석 결과를 바탕으로 아버지 참여 프로그램의 기획에 시사점을 제시하였다.

본 연구는 기호학 분석방법을 사용하여 육아 예능 리얼리티 프로그램에 재현된 부성성의 표상들을 분석하였다. MBC <아빠 어디 가>의 방영분 2편의 영상과 기호 체계를 분석한 결과, 프로그램에 출연한 부성들은 그동안 모성의 전유 영역으로 이해되던 육아에 공동으로 헌신하는 페미니스트적 남성상을 표출하고 프렌디로서의 친근한 부성의 재현을 통해 현대의 이상적 부성상을 보여주었다. 이러한 부성상의 변화는 감성적이면서 양성적인 남성으로의 변화를 함의하는 포스트모던적 남성 이데올로기를 내재화한다. <아빠 어디 가>의 부성들은 육아 실천을 지향하는 프로그램 속에서 육아를 전면적으로 수행하는 가운데, 육아 미숙의 상황을 간헐적으로 노출하면서 역설적이게도 육아에 대한 모성 이데올로기를 재생산하는 결과를 낳았다. 또한 이들이 재현한 육아 실천의 남성상은 현대의 이상적인 남성상을 시도하는 것이었지만, 자녀를 지도하는 방식에 있어서는 여전히 기존의 젠더에 대한 고정관념과 차별적 인식을 지니고 있고, 나아가 가부장적 이데올로기를 내면화하고 있음을 확인하였다. 요컨대, 이들의 포스트모던적 프렌디 부성으로의 변화가 남성 중심의 가부장적 위계 구조를 전적으로 변화시키지는 못하였다.

Purpose: This study was conducted to explore first-time fathers' experiences during their transition to parenthood in South Korea. Methods: Data were collected from September 2019 to February 2020 through in-depth interviews that were conducted individually with 12 participants. First-time fathers with children under 2 months of age were recruited. Verbatim transcripts were analyzed using Colaizzi's phenomenological method. Results: Four theme clusters were identified: Preparing to become a father, challenges of becoming a father, motivation to foster familial bonds, and acknowledgement of fatherhood. Conclusion: These findings suggest that Korean first-time fathers prepared to practice parenthood through prenatal education, taegyo, and feeling bonds with their new baby. They recognized their identity as fathers and experienced self-growth. These results would be beneficial for health professionals in developing perinatal care programs, and the results provide basic data for studies on fathers and families during the transition to parenthood.
