Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate factors influencing depression among mothers-in-law in multicultural families. Methods: For this study, 159 participants from multicultural families were recruited through administrative units of the B. & U. Metropolitan City and G. Province. Data related to acculturation stress, resilience, and depression were collected from April to August 2014 and analyzed through t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients, and regression analysis with the SPSS/WIN 22.0 for Windows program. Results: The participants had a moderate level of acculturation stress ($2.43{\pm}0.75$: range 1~5) and resilience ($4.74{\pm}1.14$: range 1~7). About 58% of the participants had depression. The results of stepwise multiple regression analysis indicated that mothers-in-law's depression was affected by resilience (${\beta}=-1.17$, p<.001), acculturation stress (${\beta}=0.85$, p=.026), perceived economic level (${\beta}=-0.83$, p=.016), difficulty in physical activity (${\beta}=-0.62$, p=.027), relationship satisfaction (${\beta}=-0.51$, p=.035), and education level (${\beta}=-0.48$, p=.033). The explanatory power of these factors was 35%. Conclusion: The findings indicated the need to lower the level of depression by enhancing resilience and reducing acculturation stress among mothers-in-law in multicultural families. Future research to reduce depression among mothers-in-law in multicultural families should consider how to enhance resilience and reduce acculturation stress.

The purposes of this descriptive survey study were to describe antenatal depression and level of mother-fetal interaction, and to assess mother's behavior and feeling during mother-fetal interaction, in order to develop a base for nursing intervention programs for mothers who have antenatal depression. Method: Data were collected from 174 pregnant women who visited one public health center and OBGY clinic in Gangneung city. The instrument used for this study was a self-report questionnaire to identify depression (BDI), and mother-fetal interaction. Results: Of the mothers 63.2% were in the normal range for antenatal depression, 21.3% in the mild group and 15.5% were in the moderate to severe group. For antenatal depression, there were significant differences among the income, planned pregnant, health status, marriage satisfaction, family support, husband's love. The mean for mother-fetal interaction was $29.88{\pm}4.91$. For mother-infant interaction, there were significant differences in education, income, pregnant number, delivery number, feeding plan, marriage satisfaction, family support, husband's love. There was a weak correlations between antenatal depression and mother-fetal interaction but it did not reach statistical significance. Conclusion: Antenatal depression and mother-fetal interaction influence fetal development. It is essential to assess and provide immediate care to mothers who have antenatal depression and lower level mother-fetal Interaction.

Purpose: This study aimed to identify factors associated with maternal attachment of breastfeeding mothers, with a focus on the mothers' breastfeeding characteristics. Methods: Data were collected from 217 mothers who breastfed their healthy baby for 1 month after childbirth and had no postpartum complications. The data were analyzed by hierarchical regression analysis. Results: The factors significantly associated with maternal attachment were an emotional exchange with one's baby (${\beta}=.41$, p<.001), breastfeeding confidence (${\beta}=.20$, p=.022), depression ('quite a bit or more', ${\beta}=-.18$, p=.005), and depression ('a little', ${\beta}=-.14$, p=.024). The model explained 38.4% of variance in maternal attachment. Conclusion: In order to improve attachment, nurses should be actively supported in helping mothers in the first month postpartum adapt to breastfeeding. Interventions to prevent postpartum depression should also be conducted.

본 연구는 자폐장애아를 둔 어머니에서의 우울증의 빈도와 그 정도를 알아보고, 이와 그들 자녀의 자폐정도가 상관관계가 있는지 알아보고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 소아정신과를 전공하는 정신과전문의 두 명 이 DSM-IV 진단기준에 의하여 자폐장애로 진단한 아동 45명과 그들의 어머니를 대상으로 하였다. 아동은 한국판 소아기 자폐증평가척도를 통하여 자폐증상의 정도를 측정하였으며, 자폐장애아동의 어머니는 한국판 Beck 우울척도를 측정하여 우울증의 정도를 알아 보았다. 이의 정상대조군으로는 나이와 학력을 맞춘 74명 의 정상 어머니들을 대상으로 비교하였다. 1) 한국판 우울척도(K-BDI)의 총점상 자폐장애아동 어머니군은 정상대조군에 비하여 통계적으로 유의하게 높은 점수를 보였고(p=.00), 이는 잠재성 우울증(K-BDI STEN점수 17-19)의 범위에 속하였다. 또 자폐장애아동 어머니 전체 45명중 26.7%인 12명은 우울증(K-BDI STEN점수상 20-23)의 범위에 속하였다. 2) 자폐장애아동 어머니의 한국판 우울척도 총점및 각 요인들과 자폐아동의 한국판 소아기 자폐증평가척도(CARS)의 총점간의 상관관계는 보이지 않았다. 이상과 같은 결과를 고려할때 자폐장애아동의 치료시 어머니의 지지적 정신치료가 자폐아동의 진료와 더불어 반드시 동반되어야 함을 시사한다 하겠다.

This study was conducted to compare the emotional state between the mothers with low-birth-weights and mothers with normal infants, and to analyze the effects of home visiting for the low-birth-weights in one city. Data were collected from 51 mothers with low-birth-weights and 90 mothers with normal infants to compare emotional state, and from 26 mothers with low-birth weights to evaluate the effect of home visiting care. Summaries of results were as follows; 1. In mothers with low-birth-weights, social support form others was significantly lower than those of mothers with normal infants. Although the differences were not significant, mothers with low-birth-weights have more stress and child rearing burden, and less maternal self-esteem than those of mothers with normal infants. 2. Mothers with low-birth-weights, the more burden, postpartum depression, and the less husbands' support they felt. When they had lower maternal self-esteem and lower husbands' support, child rearing burden was higher. Also there was significant negative correlation between maternal self-esteem and postpartum depression. 3. In mothers with low-birth-weights, the score of post-intervention stress, care-giving burden, and postpartum depression were somewhat decreased, and maternal self-esteem was increased than pre-intervention data, although they were not statistically significant. 4. Mothers' satisfaction on the home-visiting care was considered to be high. In summary, mothers with low-birth-weights had lower social support even though they experienced more stress than mothers with normal infants. Therefore, public health nurse in community should pay more attention to them.

본 연구는 발달장애인 자녀 어머니의 양육부담감과 우울과의 관계를 살펴보고, 이 관계에서 탄력성의 조절효과를 검증하는 데 목적이 있다. 조사대상자는 경기 지역 15개소의 지역사회복지관 및 치료센터에서 발달장애인 관련 프로그램을 이용하는 어머니 200명이다. 연구결과, 첫째, 발달장애인 자녀 어머니의 우울 수준을 분석한 결과, 전체 대상자 중 우울 위험군에 속하는 비율이 15%로 나타나 우울 문제가 심각한 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 발달장애인 자녀 어머니의 양육부담감은 우울에 영향을 미쳤고, 탄력성은 양육부담감이 우울에 미치는 영향을 완화시키는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 발달장애인 자녀를 양육하는 어머니의 우울문제를 예방하기 위한 효과적인 전략으로서 양육부담감을 완화시키는 지원 외에도 어머니의 탄력성을 강화하는 개입이 병행될 필요가 있음을 제시하였다.
