Objective : The objective of this study was to examine the mental health status and its correlates of the marriage-migrant women in Seoul, Korea. Methods : One hundred and seventy marriage-migrant women and one hundred and sixteen married Korean women were recruited from community to complete Symptom Check List-90-Revision (SCL-90-R). Marriage-migrant women were also asked for their socio-demographic factors, acculturative stress, family-relationship stress, and social support. The scores on the SCL-90-R were compared between marriage-migrant women and married Korean women, and the correlates of marriage-migrant women's mental health were investigated. Results : Compared to married Korean women, marriage-migrant women showed lower levels of mental health problems including somatization, obsession-compulsion, interpersonal sensitivity, depression, anxiety, hostility, paranoid ideation, and psychoticism. Longer length of residence in Korea, lower family income, social support, higher acculturation stress, and family relationship stress were all associated with mental health problems of marriage-migrant women Results : Our results suggest that mental health of marriage-migrant women is not necessarily bad, and several factors may affect their mental health. However, further studies are required in a larger representative sample to confirm the study findings.

Purpose: The findings of various studies and policy reports on marriage change, international marriage migrant women and its issues are presented in this study. Method: Research objectives were accomplished by conducting a literature review. The main areas of the literature review included married migrant women, its challenges, and current policies for international marriage migrant women. Result: Women migrating through international marriage are known to face various difficulties due to their migration. Some important obstacles women migrants face in the Republic of Korea are cultural differences in daily lifestyle, language, food, health care services, cultural assumptions, gender structure, family relationships, expected roles within family, interpersonal relationships and more. The plights of married migrant women include commercialization of international marriage, false information regarding the spouse, family abuse, insecure nationality, economic difficulty and unemployment, racial prejudice, and cultural maladjustment. Current support policies for migrant women living in Korea are suggested. Conclusion: This study concluded with policy implications and recommendations for future study. In addition, the author suggests the necessity of programs and policies for the improvement of married migrant women's well-being based on women's health and family nursing dimensions.

본 연구는 대학생들을 중심으로 다문화 TV 프로그램인 '러브인 아시아'에 나타난 결혼이주여성의 직업적 전문성에 따라 결혼이주여성에 대한 수용자의 인식이 어떠한 차이를 보이는지 조사하고자 하였다. 통제집단사후설계 방식을 이용하여 분석한 결과 '이주여성이 전문기술을 갖고 있다', '이주여성은 의사소통 능력이 뛰어나다', '이주여성은 독립심이 강하다'는 항목들에 대해 전문직 이주여성 TV프로그램을 시청한 응답자와 비전문직 이주여성 TV프로그램을 시청한 응답자 간에 유의미한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. TV프로그램에서 드러난 직업적 전문성 유무가 결혼이주여성에 대한 수용자의 인식에 영향을 줄 수 있으므로 전문가그룹의 자문시스템 구축 및 결혼이주여성의 다양성 보장과 같은 제도 마련이 필요하다.

The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of marital conflict, parenting stress on married migrant women's parenting attitudes. Participants in this study were 109 married migrant moms of young children. The major results of this study were as follows: First, married migrant women's parenting stress and marital conflicts negatively related to warmth-encouragement, limit setting, but were positively related to rejection-noninteraction in parenting behavior. Second, married migrant women's warmth-encouragement in parenting behavior was affected by personal conflicts and couple relationship conflicts. Third, competence stress, attachment stress, spouse stress, isolation stress, and health stress also affected warmth-encourage parenting behavior. On the other hand, attachment stress, spouse stress and isolation stress had significant effects on limit setting in parenting behaviors. For rejection-noninteraction in parenting behaviors, depression and spouse stress affected significantly.

본 연구에서는 결혼이주여성들이 사회적, 문화적, 역사적 '과거성'이라는 이주의 짐꾸러미를 안은 채 새로운 공간으로의 이주 후 자신들의 체험들을 어떻게 주체적 행위자로 재구성해 나가는지를 포착하는 것이 연구의 목적이다. 현상학적 연구방법을 적용하여 결혼이주여성이 경험하게 되는 생활세계의 체험을 신체성, 공간성, 시간성, 관계성 차원으로 분석하였다. 분석결과, 결혼이주여성의 신체성은 피부색이나 문화적인 면에서 차이가 있을 뿐 결코 차별이 대상이 아니라고 생각하며, 자신의 몸에 대한 당당함으로 현실의 편견을 극복하고자 노력한다. 결혼이주여성의 공간성은 새로운 사회문화적 공간을 재구성하는 '공간적 전환(spatial turn)을 시도한다. 결혼이주여성의 시간성은 현실의 탓만을 하는 수동적 주체가 아니라 보다 적극적으로 미래를 준비하고자 하는 인식을 하고 있다. 결혼이주여성의 관계성은 확장된 인간관계를 바탕으로 자신의 영역을 개척하는 삶을 보인다.

이 연구의 목적은 결혼이주여성들의 새로운 직업인 통번역사의 창출 배경과 노동 경험을 분석하여, 통번역사 노동이 가진 에스닉 노동의 성격을 밝히는 것이다. 연구의 주요 결과인 통번역사의 에스닉화된 노동의 성격은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 결혼이주여성 통번역사의 창출 배경은 차별배제적 성별화된 한국 이주정책의 특성에서 찾을 수 있다. 외국인 노동자들에게는 정주가 부인되고 취업이 제한되는 반면, 결혼이주여성은 한국 가족에의 편입을 전제로 한 포섭과 지원의 대상이기 때문에 통번역사로 고용될 수 있는 것이다. 둘째, 통번역사라는 직업은 이주노동시장에서 비교적 좋은 일자리로 인식되지만, 실제 노동조건은 한국 노동시장 내에서 저임금과 불안정 고용을 특징으로 하는 에스닉 층화구조의 하층에 위치하고 있다. 셋째, 결혼이주여성 통번역사들은 이주노동자와 결혼이민자들에게 자신의 이주 경험과 언어 자원을 서비스로 제공하는 중립적 통역자이기도 하지만, 실제 노동과정에서 선주민의 차별과 불신을 경험하면서 그들의 대변인으로서의 역할과 자신 또한 이주여성이라는 정체성 사이에서 갈등을 겪는다. 결론에서는 직업으로서의 결혼이주여성 통번역사의 지속 가능성을 결혼이주여성의 임파워먼트와 노동시장 전망에 대한 쟁점을 중심으로 논의한다.

This study aimed to identify predictors of acculturation types among marriage migrant women at the individual and dominant society levels. To accomplish this goal, we recruited marriage migrant women from China and Vietnam, classified their acculturation types according to their scores on acculturation attitudes, and performed multinomial logistic regression on acculturation types by entering marriage migrant women's individual and dominant society level factors as covariates based on previous research. The results showed that most of the participants were classified under integration(N=376), followed by assimilation(N=66), separation(N=60) and marginalization(N=48). Lower household income, lower sense of mastery, weaker ethnic identity and lower social support predicted assimilation as compared to integration. Less education, higher household income, weaker ethnic identity, lower family satisfaction and lower social support predicted separation as compared to integration. Finally, as compared to integration, marginalization was predicted by lower sense of mastery, lower ethnic identity and lower social support. This study expands the current scholarship on acculturation by examining acculturation as an indicator of the psychosocial adaptation of immigrants and by identifying factors that predict specific acculturation types among marriage migrant women.

The purpose of this study was to explore ethnic socialization enacted by Japanese marriage migrant women currently raising 7- to 18-year-old children in Korea. To accomplish this goal, we examined the following research questions: (1) What is the level of ethnic socialization enacted by Japanese marriage migrant mothers? (2) Does the level of ethnic socialization vary by demographic and ethnocultural factors? (3) To what extent do demographic and ethnocultural factors influence the enactment of ethnic socialization by Japanese marriage migrant mothers? The sample consisted of 243 Japanese marriage migrant women currently raising 7- to 18-year-old children in Korea. For data analysis, T-test, correlation, ANOVA, and hierarchical regression analyses were used. Also, we performed separate analyses for two subtypes of ethnic socialization in particular, namely cultural socialization and preparation for bias. Ethnocultural factors examined in this study were the level of discrimination experience, Japanese ethnic identity, and husbands' ethnic orientation in childrearing. The main results of this study were as follows. First, results showed that Japanese marriage migrant women enacted moderate levels of cultural socialization and preparation for bias. Second, Japanese marriage migrant women's cultural socialization and preparation for bias were both positively related to the levels of women's discrimination experience and Japanese ethnic identity. Also, the younger the age of the firstborn child, the more preparation for bias these women performed. In addition, women whose Korean husbands wanted to raise their children more biculturally performed more cultural socialization compared to those with Korean husbands who wanted to raise their children as Korean. Third, hierarchical regression analyses revealed that women's discrimination experience and ethnic identity positively predicted both types of ethnic socialization. Also, Korean husband's bicultural orientation towards childrearing predicted a higher level of cultural socialization by Japanese marriage migrant women. Results of this study provide basic information about ethnic socialization among multicultural families in Korea, which can be useful for promoting positive self-identity among multicultural children. Furthermore, the results suggest that husbands' support and cooperation in ethnic socialization can be crucial for marriage migrant women to socialize their children utilizing their cultural and experiential resources.
