Purpose: The study examined the effects of self-efficacy and intercultural communicative competence on the cultural competence of allied health college students. Methods: The participants were 176 allied health college students. Data collection was conducted from June 12 to 30, 2018. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and multiple linear regression analysis with the SPSS program. Results: The mean self-efficacy score was 3.52;, the mean intercultural communicative competence score was 3.24;, and the mean cultural competence score was 3.26. Cultural competence differed significantly by grade(p=.008), major(p<.001), overseas study exchange(p=.020), foreign language skill(p=.011), domestic multicultural friends (p=.002) and contact with people(p=.026) of general characteristics. Statistically significant positive relationships were observed between self-efficacy(r=.23), intercultural communicative competence(r=.58), and cultural competence. A total of 35.9% of cultural competence was explained by intercultural communicative competence and grade. Conclusion: These results can be used to develop cultural education programs to improve cultural competence, with consideration for intercultural communicative competence and grade levels.

The number of multicultural families with children are growing in South Korea. When it comes to childrearing, co-existence of two different cultures in these families pose unique challenges as husbands and wives navigate differences in norms and practices. The goal of this study was to examine what predicts involvement in child care among South Korean fathers in multicultural families. We hypothesized that the degree of wives' adaptation to South Korea and husbands' cultural characteristics, such as family ideology and cultural competence, would influence father involvement in child care. The sample consisted of 138 Korean fathers and their wives from China. Participants completed a questionnaire. Results showed that South Korean fathers engaged in a moderate level of child care activities. As hypothesized, their Chinese wives' level of adaptation to South Korea and their own cultural characteristics were significantly associated with their involvement in child care. South Korean fathers were more likely to get involved in child care when their wives were less acculturated. Also, culturally considerate and less traditional men in terms of family ideology were more likely to perform child care.

Data collected using questionnaires which consisted of general characteristics, cultural empathy, self-esteem, and cultural competence. The mean score for cultural empathy was $3.63{\pm}.34$(scores ranged from 1 to 5), The mean score for self-esteem was $2.91{\pm}.42$(scores ranged from 1 to 4). The mean score for cultural competence was $3.31{\pm}.43$(scores ranged from 1 to 5). There were significant differences between cultural competence and age(t=-2.242, p=.027), grade(F=3.473, p=.033), and fluency of foreign language(F=5.053, p=.007). There were significant correlation between cultural competence and cultural empathy(r=.49, p<.001), and self-esteem(r=.33, p<.001)), and self-esteem and cultural empathy(r=.33, p<.001). Cultural empathy and self-esteem explained 29.4% of cultural competence and major predictor variable for cultural competence was cultural empathy.

본 연구는 간호대학생의 다문화인식, 문화적 역량과 전문직 자아개념 간의 인관관계와 경로를 파악하기 위한 연구이다. 대상은 일 대학 간호학과 학생 245명이었다. 자료는 구조화된 설문지를 이용하여 수집하였고, PASW 18.0, AMOS 18.0을 이용하여 분석하였다. 연구결과 모형의 적합도 지수는 적합하였다($x^2/df=1.170$, GFI=.992, AGFI=.970, RMSEA=.027, CFI=.995, NFI=.967). 전문직 자아개념에 문화적 역량은 직접효과, 다문화 인식과 전공만족도, 대인관계는 간접효과를 나타내었고, 문화적 역량에 다문화 인식과 전공만족도는 직접효과, 대인관계는 간접효과를 나타내었으며, 다문화인식에 전공만족도와 대인관계는 직접효과가 있었다. 즉, 간호대학생의 전공만족도와 대인관계를 향상시키면 다문화인식이 높아지고, 문화적 역량이 높아지며, 전문직 자아개념도 향상되므로, 전문직 자아개념 향상을 위해서는 다문화인식, 문화적 역량을 높이는 교육프로그램이 선행되어야 함을 확인하였다.

최근 한국사회에 외국인근로자, 결혼이주여성, 유학생 등 이주민의 수가 증가하면서 문헌정보학 분야는 새로운 도전에 직면하고 있다. 이주민의 증가는 문헌정보전문직으로 하여금 다양한 문화적 배경을 가진 이주민에게 적절하며 효과적인 서비스를 제공하기 위한 새로운 역량을 개발할 것을 요구한다. 이에, 이 연구에서는 다문화시대, 사서에게 요구되는 역량을 문화적 역량이라는 관점에서 고찰해 보았다. 구체적으로 다문화서비스 담당 사서에게 요구되는 문화적 역량이란 무엇이며, 그 구성요소는 무엇인지 등 사서의 문화적 역량에 대한 내용 체계를 검토하였다. 이를 위해 문헌연구와 다문화서비스를 이행하고 있는 사서, 다문화전문가와의 인터뷰를 통해 관련 데이터를 확보하였다. 연구결과, 사서에게 필요한 문화적 역량은 다문화에 대한 태도, 다문화에 대한 지식, 다문화에 대한 기술이라는 3가지로 구분되었으며, 그 세부적 요소로서 다문화 태도, 다문화구성원에 대한 지식, 다문화서비스에 대한 지식, 장서 서비스 프로그램 개발, 서비스전달, 언어의 다양성, 교육 및 인력개발 부문이 제시되었다.

Purpose: As Korean society has rapidly become multicultural in the last few decades, it is essential for nurses to become culturally competent to provide effective care for ethnically and culturally diverse populations. Considering the advantages of standardized instrument, there is a need to evaluate current cultural competence instruments to assess adaptability to Korean nurses. Methods: Using Macdowell's instrument evaluation guideline, a review and evaluation was done of the Inventory for Assessing the Process of Cultural Competence among Healthcare Professionals (IAPCC) and Cultural Competence Assessment (CCA), which were both developed based on cultural competence theoretical models and have been commonly used in nursing research. Two other Korean instruments were also evaluated. Results: The instruments reviewed have limitations in reliability and validity, as well as cultural background and development process, for measurement of cultural competence in Korean nurses. Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that it is necessary to discuss and agree on a definition of what cultural competence is and to develop instruments to measure cultural competence in Korean nurses.

This study investigated the effects of critical thinking and empathy on the cultural competence of dental hygienists and students. A total of 529 dental hygiene students were randomly sampled and included as subjects. PASW Statistics for Windows ver. 18.0 was used to obtain the following results. Among the critical thinking sub-domains, cognitive integration was the highest and the lowest. Empathic ability had the highest acceptance factor among the sub-domains. Cultural competence was the highest among the sub-domains, while cultural knowledge was the lowest. According to their general characteristics, subject age, grade, religion, and economic level influenced the cultural capacity. Cultural awareness and sensitivity were high when there were foreign visiting experiences. Cultural awareness, sensitivity, skills, and knowledge were high when subjects had experienced multicultural education (p<0.05). Cultural awareness, sensitivity, skill, experience, and knowledge were correlated with critical thinking and cultural competence, among which cultural sensitivity showed the highest correlation (p<0.001). There was a correlation between cultural awareness and sensitivity, skill, and experience among the empathy and cultural competency sub-domains (p<0.001). The factors influencing cultural awareness included intellectual integration, openness, prudence, and perspective-taking (p<0.001). The factors influencing cultural sensitivity included intellectual integration, openness, and empathic concern (p<0.001). The factors influencing cultural skill included intellectual integration, creativity, and conductivity (p<0.001). The factors influencing cultural experience included prudence, objectivity, perspective-taking, and personal distress (p<0.001). Finally, the factors influencing cultural knowledge included creativity and conductivity (p<0.001). The results indicate that dental hygiene students should be equipped with cultural competence to enhance critical thinking and empathy required by the modern society and optimized dental hygiene courses should be provided for multicultural subjects.

시장개방과 국제결혼의 증가로 인하여 한국사회는 점차 다문화사회로 진입하고 있다. 교육부는 다문화학생 교육 선진화 방안을 발표하여, 다문화학생에 대한 교육을 강화하고 있으며, 전체 학생을 대상으로 다문화이해교육을 실시하고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 초등학교를 중심으로 다문화이해교육의 실제를 파악하고 향후 방향을 제시하는 것이다. 이를 위해 다문화이해교육 강사들이 학교 현장에서 다문화이해교육을 어떻게 진행하고 있는지 고찰하고 다문화 교육과정의 개념적 모형에 비추어 그들의 교수목표와 교육내용이 다문화적 가치를 잘 전달하고 있는지 살펴보았다. 연구방법은 4명의 다문화이해교육 강사를 연구 참여자로 섭외하고 사전인터뷰, 수업자료 검토, 수업참관 및 수업참관 후 사후 인터뷰를 실시하였으며, 이 연구과정에서 수집된 자료를 분석하여 주요 주제를 도출하였다. 연구 참여자들은 모두 초등학생을 대상으로 자신(배우자)의 출신국 문화를 소개하였으며, 수업은 전통복식, 음식 등 풍습위주의 외형적인 문화에 초점이 맞춰져 있었다. 다문화이해교육은 대상 학생 및 문화의 측면에서 다양성을 고려할 필요가 있으며, 2차시 분량의 일회성 수업으로 세계적 상황에 대한 공감능력 및 사회적 행위능력을 배양하기 다소 어려웠으며, 교과내용과 연계하여 융합교육과정으로 발전시키려는 노력이 필요하다.
