Parental satisfaction is the foundation of a happy family. It is a key factor in overall life satisfaction and also a critical variable in the development of children, and thus an education program aimed at parental satisfaction improvement is needed. This study attempts to determine basic elements of parental satisfaction that could enable better parental education programs. To accomplish this, mother's parental satisfaction and factors related to it were examined. The subjects were 641 mothers of primary school and middle school students aged 10, 12, and 14 residing in Seoul, Pohang and Kwangyang. Structured self-administered questionnaires were used to ascertain mothers' parental role satisfaction, mothers' role values, children related variables, mother related variables, father related variables, and home environment variables. The findings indicate that the variables related to parental satisfaction are multi-dimensional, that mothers' parental satisfaction can be improved by other family member's effort, and that a family's external characteristics are less important than its internal characteristics. These results imply that it is essential to include the characteristics of the family system when designing parental education programs. Furthermore, the role of specific family members, namely the husband, should be expanded in more supportive ways in Korean families to improve mothers parental satisfaction.

본 연구는 초기 청소년기의 공격성 수준이 시간에 따라 어떠한 변화를 보이는지, 그리고 그러한 변화에 가족요인, 즉, 부모애착, 부모감독, 가족갈등이 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 검증하고자 하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 본 연구에서는 한국청소년패널(KYPS) 초등학교 4학년 1~5차년도 자료에 대하여 다층모형을 구성하여 가족요인을 시간의존적 변수로 처리한 후 시간독립적 효과와 시간의존적 효과에 대한 실증적 검증을 실시하였다. 분석 결과, 5년 동안 청소년의 공격성 수준은 증가하다가 그 증가율이 감소하는 이차함수 패턴을 보이는 것으로 확인되었다. 그리고 부모애착, 부모감독, 가족갈등은 공격성에 유의한 시간독립적 효과를 보이는 반면, 시간의존적 효과를 보이는 가족요인은 가족갈등 뿐이었다. 이러한 결과에 근거하여 청소년기 공격성에 대한 예방 및 개입과 관련된 함의가 제시되었다.

이혼가정자녀들의 부모이혼 후 적응방법을 찾기 위해 부모갈등, 부모양육태도 그리고 이혼에 대한 지각이 이혼 후 자녀들의 행동적응에 미치는 경로를 분석하였다. 이를 위해 부모가 이혼한 가정의 자녀 261명을 대상으로 설문지를 이용한 자료를 수집하였다. 수집된 자료는 구조방정식모형(SEM)을 사용해 분석되었다. 나타난 결과를 요약하면, 부모간 갈등은 부모의 양육태도와 이혼에 대한 지각에 직접적인 영향을 미치며 아동의 행동문제에는 간접적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 부모의 양육태도는 이혼지각에 직접 영향을 주며 아동의 행동문제에 간접적인 영향을 미치나 총효과를 보면, 이혼지각에 더 강력한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 부모의 양육태도가 부정적일수록 아동의 부모이혼에 대한 지각은 더욱 부정적으로 나타나며, 이혼에 대한 부정적 인식이 아동의 행동문제를 강력하게 예측하는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 부모의 양육태도에 따라 아동의 이혼에 대한 인식이 달라질 수 있음을 시사한다. 파악된 현상을 근거로 이혼 후 자녀들의 행동적응을 위한 예방과 전략이 모색되었다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships among perceived health, parental stress, social support, and quality of life of grandparent caregivers and to identify the factors influencing quality of their life. Methods: A descriptive correlational design was used. The data were collected by questionnaires from a convenience sample of 130 participants taking care of their grandchildren from ten children's daycare centers in Seoul, Korea from August to September, 2013. Data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation efficients, and multiple regressions. Results: Perceived health, parental stress and social support were correlated significantly with quality of life. As a result of the multiple regression analysis, education level, age of grandchildren, perceived health, parental stress and social support accounted for 48% of the variance in quality of life. Perceived health, parental stress, and social support were identified as factors influencing quality of life and the variable that most affected quality of life was perceived health. Conclusion: The results of the study indicate that health of people taking care of their grandchildren must be promoted while relieving their parental stress with appropriate social support in order to improve quality of life.

The purpose of this study was to identify which of the variables were associated with ineffective parental child-rearing practices and to examine the effects of cumulative risk factors on ineffective child-rearing practices. The subjects for this study consisted of 120 mothers and 120 fathers of two to six year old children attending a university child development laboratories. Self-report questionnaire were used to collect data on the following variables: 1) family backgrojnd characteristics; 2) child temperament; 3) quality of life; 4) social support; 5) intergenerational trasmission of parenting; and 6) parental disciplinary practices. Descriptive analysis, t-test, and chi-square analyses were used for data description and analysis. The major findings were as follows: 1) Mothers who perceived the child as being less emotional, more soothable, and who had higher levels of marital satisfaction and job satisfaction engaged in more effective child-rearing practices. 2) Fathers who perceived the child as being less emotional, and who have boys provided more effective child-rearing practices. 3) For both mothers and fathers, parents with higher levels of quality life, social support, and family income exhibited more effective child-rearing practices. 4) Parents exposed to several risk factors were much more likely to exhibit ineffective child-rearing practices than parents exposed to no risk factors. The results of this study indicate that the characteristics of the child, parent, and contextual factors all contribute to the parental child-rearing pracitices.

In this investigation of child's psychological wellbeing and parental satisfaction with dual income family(DIF), subjects were 297 3rd and 5th grade elementary school students and their mothers. Results showed that boys and younger children were more satisfied with mother's working than girls and older children. Mothers' DIF satisfaction was dependent on gross family income, parents' occupations, working conditions of each parent, commuter marriage status, and length of time in DIF. Child's psychological wellbeing related positively to mother's parental satisfaction, and to mother's satisfaction with parental roles, parent-child relationships, spouse support and child support. Only sub factors of dilemmas in parental role related negatively to DIF status. Child's satisfaction with mother's roles, father's roles, and mother working influenced mother's parental role satisfaction.

Purpose: We reported a survey-based study assessing the parental intention to vaccinate children of 5 to 7 years old against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The aim of this study is to assess factors influencing the parental intention to vaccinate their children against COVID-19. Materials and Methods: This study adopted a cross-sectional design, held at the public health center of Senen district, Jakarta, Indonesia from November 1-30, 2022. The off-line questionnaires were distributed via the school administrator to all eligible parents. Factors associated with intention to vaccinate were analyzed with the regression logistic models. Results: Of the 435 parents in this study, 215 had already vaccinated their children against COVID-19 (49.4%), and the overall intention of the participants to vaccinate was 69.7%. Factors associated with intention to vaccinate the children against COVID-19 were parental employment status, parental COVID-19 vaccine status and concern of contracting COVID-19. Parents who are employed, had completed vaccines with COVID-19 booster vaccine, and had concern of their children contracting COVID-19 were more likely to vaccinate their children (odds ratio [OR], 2.10; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.22-3.69; p=0.011; OR, 2.15; 95% CI, 1.21-3.83; p=0.013; OR, 2.40; 95% CI, 1.34-4.30; p=0.004, respectively). Concern on the vaccine's side effects was negatively associated with the willingness to vaccinate. Conclusion: This study showed that childhood COVID-19 vaccine only covered half of the population, with parental intentions for childhood COVID-19 vaccination being high, reaching almost two-thirds of the study participants. Factors influencing parental intentions were employment status, parental COVID-19 vaccine status, concerns about COVID-19 and concerns about vaccine side effects.
