Purpose: The objective of this study was to examine the factors associated with initiation and continuation of breastfeeding among Korean women in relation to their employment status. Methods: Data were collected using a web-based self-administered questionnaire from 1,031 Korean mothers living in Seoul with babies younger than 24 months. Demographic characteristics, education on breastfeeding, rooming in, breastfeeding during hospital stay, and breastfeeding knowledge were examined. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify factors associated with initiation and continuation at 1, 6 and 12 months according to mothers' employment status. Results: Breastfeeding initiation rates were similar regardless of mothers' employment status. Continuation rates decreased for both groups of mothers, but were significantly lower among employed mothers at all duration points. Unemployed mothers who were able to keep their babies in the same room during the hospital stay were more likely to initiate breastfeeding. The factor that was consistently associated with breastfeeding continuation for all duration points among unemployed mothers was whether the mother breastfed during the hospital stay. Higher knowledge scores and having an infant with atopic dermatitis were also associated with breastfeeding continuation at 6 months and 12 months, respectively for unemployed mothers, and receiving education on breastfeeding was associated with 12-month continuation for employed mothers. Conclusion: These results emphasize the significant roles of hospitals for breastfeeding initiation and continuation, with rooming-in, initial breastfeeding practice and education during hospital stay as important practices. In addition, for working mothers to continue their breastfeeding, significant support from the workplace is crucial.

본 연구는 영아기 자녀를 둔 어머니의 양육신념과 지지적 상호작용이 양육스트레스에 미치는 영향에 대하여 가구소득과 어머니의 취업여부에 따라서 차이가 나타나는지 살펴보는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 연구대상은 2010년 한국아동패널3차에 참가한 23-31개월 자녀를 둔 어머니들 중 가구소득과 취업여부로 분류한 4개 집단(낮은소득-비취업, 낮은소득-취업, 높은소득-비취업, 높은소득-취업)에 해당하는 770명이었다. 연구결과 어머니의 양육신념과 지지적 상호작용은 양육스트레스에 영향을 미치는 것으로 밝혀졌으며, 집단에 따라서 영향을 미치는 변인과 정도는 차이가 있었다. 4개의 모든 집단에서 공통적으로 어머니의 지지적 상호작용은 양육스트레스에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 변인이었으며, 높은소득-비취업 집단에서는 유일한 변인이었다. 낮은소득-비취업 집단에서는 정서적, 도구적 가치와 성취기대, 인성에 대한 강조가, 낮은소득-취업 집단에서는 도구적 가치가, 높은소득-취업 집단에서는 정서적 가치와 성취기대가 양육스트레스에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 연구결과는 취업여부와 가구소득과 관련된 어머니의 양육스트레스를 이해하기 위해서는 두 변인을 함께 고려할 필요가 있음을 시사해주고 있다.

본 연구는 2012년 전국 규모로 실시된 5차 한국아동패널의 자료를 활용하여 만 4세 유아의 개인적 특성요인(기질), 가족특성변인(모 취업여부), 생활시간변인(육아지원기관 이용시간, 기관에서의 낮잠시간, 전자매체 사용시간)이 유아의 야간수면시간에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지와 가장 높은 설명력을 가지는 변인이 무엇인지 살펴보고자 하였다. 그 결과, 유아의 개인적 특성변인, 가족특성변인, 생활시간변인이 야간수면시간과 부적 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 상대적 설명력은 생활시간변인, 가족특성변인 순으로 높았으며 개인적 특성변인은 유의하지 않았다. 이에 따라 유아가 가정에서 충분한 야간수면을 취할 수 있도록 부모는 적절한 생활환경을 제공해 주어야하며 자녀의 양육을 지원하기 위해 가정과 기관의 연계 강화, 부모의 근무시간 유연제 등의 제도 확산과 시행의 필요성이 제기된다.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to find the tendencies and differences of mother's child-rearing anxiety before and after their children enter into elementary school, to analyze the factors influencing child-rearing anxiety at each time, and thereby to seek a support plan at the time of transition. Methods: The subjects of this study were 181 mothers who participated in two surveys which were conducted before and after their child entered into elementary school. Results: Firstly, mother's child-rearing anxiety before and after their children's entrance into elementary school was at a middle level, but increased significantly when they experienced their children's transition to elementary school. Secondly, mother's child-rearing anxiety, before their children's entrance into elementary school, was influenced by private education, the collection of educational information, cognitive ability, whether or not to develop a work status change plan, and birth order sequentially. Thirdly, child-rearing anxiety after their children's entrance into elementary school was significantly influenced by child-rearing anxiety before their children's entrance into elementary school and the mother's employment. Conclusion/Implications: This study is meaningful in the point that it suggested the necessity for the cooperation between multiple systems, such as systematic and stepwise parenting education, the importance of offering information to educational institutions and local governments, and for work- family support policy to prioritize children in order to support children's successful transition into elementary school.

The purpose of this study was firstly to identify how the characteristics of children(grades, birth order, self-consciousness), parents(age, educational level, employment status of mother, mother's parenting behavior), and context (private tutoring status, tying area) relate to children's stress and secondly to examine the relative effects of these variables on children's stress. The subjects of this study were 940(453 boys, 440 girls) children from grades 4 to 6 who were selected from three elementary schools in Seoul and Buchun. Data were analyzed with t-test, correlation, and multiple regression analysis. The results were as follows: (1) Girls get stressed easier than boys in terms of being treated distantly by their friends. (2) The study showed a negative relationship between children's stress and their self-consciousness such as general self-consciousness, teaming self-consciousness and total self-consciousness. (3) While the results showed a negative relationship between children's stress and mothers' acceptable behavior, the study revealed a positive relationship between children's stress and the mother's over protective behavior which in turn raised the children's stress level. (4) In 'total stress', it was recognized that boys were affected mostly tv grades in the children's variables category, while girls were affected by their general self-consciouness. In addition, both girls and boys were affected mostly by acceptable-refusal parental behavior in the parental variables category, and further affected by the living area in the category of conditional variables.
