Objectives: This study was conducted to identify the characteristics of health behavior and self-esteem and the relationship between the two factors among elementary school students with multi-cultural family background. Participants: Survey participants were 87 multi-cultural family children who lived in Seoul and Kyoungi areas and were registered in the local elementary schools. Methods: Data collection was conducted by face-to-face interview survey. Elementary education majored undergraduate students who participated in the education support program for multi-cultural family children in the Ministry of Education and Science and primary researcher of this study interviewed the target students and finished the survey questionnaire based on the students' responses. Survey included general characteristics, multi-cultural family characteristics, self-esteem, and (physical, mental, and social) health behavior. Results: 1. The self-esteem scores of the multi-cultural families children were greater in girl than boys among the children whose parents were graduated from college or more, and whose father had his job. The participants' health behavior scores were different by mothers' educational level. 2. The better they speak in English the greater the self-esteem scores. There was no statistical difference in health behavior scores by the participants' multi-cultural family background. 3. Self-esteem had moderate level correlation with health behavior (r= .56, p= .00) including all sub-categories of physical, mental, and social health. Conclusions: Positive self-esteem level is more sensitive to explain multi-cultural family children's health behaviors, which means that self-esteem is an important factor determining multi-cultural children's health behaviors and their health status in future. Therefore, more research to identify the factors related to health behaviors should be supported and the health promotion programs utilizing self-esteem should be developed for the child and youth with multi-cultural family backgrounds.

본 연구는 청소년건강행태온라인조사 제 7차 데이터를 이용하여 다문화 가정 청소년과 일반 가정 청소년들 간의 성 관련 경험 차이를 분석하였으며 이러한 차이에 아버지의 학력과 성교육의 영향력을 살펴보았다. 구체적으로 성 관련 경험을 종속변수로, 다문화 여부를 독립변수로, 아버지의 학력과 성교육을 조절변수로 선정하였으며 독립변수와 조절변수들의 영향력을 살펴보기 위하여 SPSS 20.0을 이용하여 GLM(General Linear Model)을 실시하였다. 분석결과 다문화여부의 주효과가 검증되었으며 아버지의 학력과 성교육 조절효과 또한 검증되었다. 구체적으로 일반 가정 청소년들 보다 다문화 가정 청소년의 성 관련 경험이 더 많은 것으로 나타났으며 일반가정 청소년들 보다 다문화 가정 청소년들의 성 관련 경험에 대해 아버지의 학력과 성교육의 영향력이 더 큰 것으로 나타났다. 일반가정 청소년들은 아버지의 학력과 성교육에 따라 성 관련 경험의 차이가 크지 않지만 다문화 가정 청소년들의 경우 아버지의 학력이 낮은 집단과 성교육을 받지 않는 집단이 그렇지 않은 집단과 비교해 성 관련 경험이 더 많은 것으로 나타났다.

Purpose: This study was conducted in order to investigate the experiences of nurses in health care of women with multi-cultural background. The structure of these experiences was identified in a social-cultural context. Methods: Data were collected by means of in-depth interviews using tape-recordings from 16 participants who were providing childbirth care for culturally different women. A phenomenological method proposed by Colaizzi was used to guide the process of data analysis. Results: A total of 138 significant statements were extracted from the data resulting in nine themes and five theme clusters. Theme clusters that emerged from the data were: more in-depth cultural difference, difficulty in providing care in multi-cultured, sticking to care in our own way, not being ready to nurse, and accepting culturally different woman, such as a Korean woman. Conclusion: The findings suggest that systematic educational programs for enhancement of cultural competency and its support systems should be developed for Korean nurses. Useful materials on Korean childbirth care should also be provided to women giving birth.

With the increase in multi-cultural families, Korea is seeing a rapid increase in immigrated housewives, who are closely related to food culture. However, studies for the diet of multi-cultural families, which is most closely related to our lives have not been sufficiently researched. With this background, this study conducted research for immigrated women nationwide about food cultures to provide the possibility which Korean food culture would be developed harmoniously with various foreign food cultures. In this study, the immigrated women seemed to have adapted to Korean food culture quickly, but they showed differences according to some conditions like countries they are from and the time they have been in Korea. To achieve this, we need to conduct consistent and in depth studies for food cultures in multi-cultural families so that we can make healthy development in food culture, harmonious with traditional Korean culture.

South Korea is changing into a multi-cultural society, due to an increase in international marriage, foreign workers and transcultural immigration. In addition, the number of North Korean defectors entering South Korea has increased and now, there are approximately 25000. Therefore, this review have focused on a research that pertains to adaptation and mental health concerns of their children. Children who have immigrated themselves or whose parents have immigrated, might experience language barriers, difficulties in school adjustment, identity confusion and mental health problems. However, their academic performance and developmental status are known to be variable and be affected by socioeconomic status and their parents' educational level. Studies that evaluated the psychological problems of North Korean adolescent refugees' indicated the need for interests in both emotional and behavioral problems. The risk factors of North Korean adolescent refugees' mental health are suggested to be past traumatic experiences, long duration of defection and short period of adaptation. When mental health professionals provide assessment and treatment, they should consider the pre- and post-migration experiences & cultural background that affect the illness behaviors and attitudes toward mental illnesses. Lastly, the majority of children with multi-cultural background are still under an adolescent period and we should follow up with long-term perspectives.

This study examined job satisfaction and relevant variables for multi-cultural family home-visiting educators. The selected study subjects were 192 home-visiting educators who work at Multi-Cultural Family Support Centers in the Seoul, Gyeonggi-do, and Chungcheongnam-do areas. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS ver. 18.0. The main results were as follows. First, the job satisfaction level in multi-cultural family visiting educators stood at 3.29 points, subjects' age, averagely monthly income, marital status, and activity career were shown to influence generally upon job satisfaction, self-efficacy, job stress, and cultural competency. Job satisfaction was high in groups with: a high age, small career, low averagely monthly income, and married. Second, self-efficacy and job stress were big in the job satisfaction of multi-cultural family visiting educators. The same outcome as the existing prior research was indicated. Cultural competency was not significant. Third, an examination of relative influence upon job satisfaction in home visiting educators indicated that the explanation power was 29.0%. Significant influential variables included academic background, marital status, self-regulation, and role ambiguity. Self-regulation was greater for those with lower academic backgrounds and unmarried. Job satisfaction was higher in the lower role ambiguity. Thus, the same outcome as the existing prior research was indicated. Cultural competency wasn't indicated to be significant. This has significance in having shown characteristics of job satisfaction in multi-cultural family visiting educators.

본 연구는 다문화 통합교육을 위한 이론적 기초를 정립하기 위한 연구이다. 다문화 교육이 다문화 가정 아동의 학교 부적응을 개선하고 지원하기 위해 시작되었지만 다문화 가정은 물론 일반 가정 아동을 대상으로 한 다문화 통합교육으로 확대되고 있다. 다문화 교육의 목표와 성격에 대한 다양한 접근들이 있지만 주로 민주주의와 인권의 다문화 시민성 함양을 목표로 삼고 문화와 관련된 지식과 능력을 교육내용으로 선정해왔다. 다문화 시민성 교육의 다양한 접근들이 서구로부터 유입되면서 다문화 교육에 관한 한국의 담론이 풍요롭게 되었지만, 아직까지 한국사회에 토착화되지 못해 다문화 사회에서 도덕적으로 교육받은 사람에 대한 이념이나 교육이 분명치 않다. 이에 본 연구는 다문화 교육의 덕접근의 필요성을 밝히고, 다문화 사회에 적합한 가치나 덕을 다문화 교육의 내용으로 선정하고, 다문화 통합교육의 덕 접근의 가능성을 모색하였다.
