This study explored the processes of parental divorce and adaptation in single-parent families as well as examined how the experience of living in family welfare facilities influences the adaptation process of such families. The research question to achieve the study objective was, "What is the adaption process for a singlefather family, and what influence does living in a single-father family welfare facility have on that process?" Data collection was conducted between June 2013 and April 2014 that included an in-depth interview process and continuous participatory observations on 14 children residing in the facility. The study results were as follows. The theme in a two-parent family period was 'changes in reduction of family: serious conflicts between parents.' Children directly witnessed intense conflicts between parents and experienced anxiety from situations that involved verbal and physical violence during the two-parent family period. The experience of children prior to entering the facility was represented by "loss and confusion experienced." The theme for children of singlefather family in entering a facility was "selecting a realistic alternative." Children's daily activities consisted of being with friends of a similar age, which allowed them to play and support each other in building social skills. The facility departure theme for the children was "hope for a new life."

Purpose: This study examined the literature concerning the burdens of parents of preschool-aged children diagnosed with type 1 diabetes mellitus. Methods: We employed an integrative review methodology based on Whittemore and Knafl's framework. The literature search was conducted using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines across four electronic databases: PubMed, Web of Science, the Cumulative Index to Nursing Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), and PsycINFO. Ultimately, 18 articles were included in the review. Results: The review yielded four themes: (1) parental burdens, (2) factors related to the burdens, (3) coping strategies, and (4) implications for clinical practice. Parents experienced psychological, physical, and social burdens due to the diabetes care of their children. Several factors influenced burdens, including child-related characteristics such as age, severity of diabetes, and hospitalization experience, as well as parental factors like family income, race, and residential area. Parents initially felt burdened when their child was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, but over time, they often adapted to the situation through support and sharing of responsibilities. Parents desired education and interventions reflecting the unique characteristics of preschoolers. Conclusion: This integrative literature review revealed that parents experience numerous burdens when their child is diagnosed with diabetes. Future research should focus on developing interventions to address parents' psychological difficulties, including tracking parental psychological changes over time. Tailored nursing interventions should also be provided to parents of preschool-aged children, as opposed to the more generic nursing interventions traditionally applied across all age groups of children in clinical settings.

Using ecological perspectives, this study investigated variables that affect the life satisfaction of employed and unemployed mothers. The subjects were 623 mothers who had preschool and kindergarten age children living in Seoul, Inchon, and Kyonggi areas. Results showed that the life satisfaction was higher in employed mothers and differed by mothers' and fathers' educational level, family composition, and family income. Life satisfaction of both employed and unemployed mothers correlated highly with parental stress, husband's support of child-rearing, social support, and satisfaction with early childhood program. Husband's support of child-rearing was the strongest predictor of life satisfaction for both employed and unemployed mothers.

본 연구는 부 모 노동력의 탈상품화 가족화와 상품화 탈가족화 정도를 반영하는 부모권과 노동권 지원수준을 통해 OECD 21개국을 비교분석하여 몇 가지 중요한 결과를 도출하였다. 첫째는 남성생계 부양자에 근거한 주류 복지국가 논의에 대한 대안적 논의의 가능성을 열어 놓았다는 점이고, 둘째는 사민주의 4개국은 구사회위험 뿐만 아니라 신사회위험에 대해서도 (상대적으로) 적절한 대응을 하고 있다는 점이다. 셋째는 부모권의 지원 문제, 즉 가족정책의 가족화 수준이 반드시 탈가족화 수준과 일치하지 않을 수도 있다는 것이다. 프랑스, 오스트리아의 예에서 보듯 두 국가 부모휴가제도의 탈상품화 수준은 낮지만 가족화 수준은 상대적으로 높게 나타났기 때문이다. 이러한 결과에 근거해 한국가족 정책에 대한 몇 가지 주요한 함의를 정리하였다. 첫째, 가족정책과 관련된 정책목표의 달성은 단순히 제도도입 여부와 같은 형식적 문제가 아니라 부모휴가(육아휴직)제도 등이 실제적으로 부 모의 실제적 이해와 요구를 반영하는 수준의 지원이 이루어져야한다는 점이다. 둘째, 한국가족정책에서 높은 수준의(탈)상품화 (탈)가족화를 제도화할 수 있는 힘은 한국사회의 여성유급노동에 대한 객관적 필요에 의해 결정될 것이므로, 여성의 유급고용 확대를 위한 시장과 비시장부분에서의 충분한 정책적 노력이 진행되어한다. 셋째, 임신, 출산, 양육이라는 신사회위험에 대한 가족정책의 대응을 위해 계급과 계층을 가로지는 새로운 사회연대를 모색해야 한다.

This study examines how family and school social capital moderate the relation between family income and academic achievement. I use the data from the Korean Educational and Employment Panel(KEEP) on the third year middle school students in 2004. Results show that higher levels of family and school social capital, as well as financial capital such as family income are more positively associated with academic achievement. In addition, family and school social capital are served as moderators of the influences of family income on academic achievement. For example, higher parental concern about children and teacher-student bonding provides an extra boost to the positive relationship between family income and student achievement. Furthermore, lower educational expectations can make the relation between income and achievement negative. These findings underscore the importance of social capital at home and at school as the alternatives to promote academic achievement. In particular, greater concern and support encouraging social capital at home and school should be directed at low-income students who are struggling with academic achievement.

Background: This study aims to investigate the perceptions of dentists and dental hygienists regarding quality dental job conditions and to identify differences in perceptions based on job type. Methods: As a result of conducting face-to-face and online surveys, data from a total of 132 people were analyzed. In order to investigate the perception of quality job conditions, the importance of a total of 13 items was investigated, and the work policies and job satisfaction of the current workplace were examined. Since the data did not follow a normal distribution, a non-parametric test, the Mann-Whitney U test, was performed. Results: Both dentists and dental hygienists perceived income and working hours to be of priority importance for quality job conditions. Dental hygienists valued holiday support and welfare, human relations, and personal development potential more than dentists (p<0.05). Looking at differences by job type, dental hygienists rated all conditions as more important than dentists except income, indicating a statistically significant difference (p<0.05). In terms of the work policies, 96.2% of the practices in the study were required to have the four types of social security contributions, but fewer had flexible working hours (19.7%), healthcare support (23.5%), and incentives (25.0%). Of the participants, 60.6% had parental leave available at their workplace, and dental hygienists had statistically significantly higher job satisfaction when parental leave was available (2.57 points) than when it was not (p<0.05). Conclusion: Quality dental jobs are an important factor in keeping workers happy and maintaining an efficient practice. Dental practice owners need to pay attention to the quality of jobs required by the dental workforce, provide flexible working hours and welfare programs such as parental leave, and create a workplace atmosphere and human resource management system that supports the use of these programs.

Objective: This study aimed to analyze the changes and predictive factors of mothers' parenting competencies during their children's second to third grades in primary school. Methods: We used the data from the Panel study of Korean Parental Educational Involvement. We classified 373 mothers into three groups, 'reduced' parenting competency, 'maintained' parenting competency, and 'increased' parenting competency, and conducted one-way variance analysis and multinomial logistic regression analysis. Results: First, the mothers' parenting competency decreased between their children's 2nd year and 3rd year in primary school. Second, the 'reduced', 'maintained', and 'increased' groups differed from each other in the degree of change in self-system competency, level of understanding of school life, number of counseling sessions with homeroom teachers, and social networking. Third, the degree of change in self-system competency and social networking predicted the increase in mothers' parenting competency. The degree of change in self-system competency and the level of understanding of school life predicted the maintenance of mothers' parenting competency. Conclusion/Implications: This study, for the first time, has revealed the change in mothers' parenting competency and its predictive factors after the second year in primary school. How to support the growth of mothers' parenting competency was also discussed.

The main purpose of this study was to examine the relations of children's shyness and maternal involvement in children's peer relations to children's social competence, and the relative influence of children's shyness and maternal involvement in children's peer relations on children's social competence. 195 mothers of 3-year-olds and their 13 teachers in Seoul and Gyeonggi province participated in the study. The data were obtained using three kinds of questionnaires regarding shyness, parental involvement, and social competence. Findings revealed that shy children showed less popularity leadership and social participation for both boys and girls. The more orchestrations mothers exerted, the more popularity leadership boys showed. And the more advice and support mothers provided, the more interpersonal adjustment girls showed. For boys, shyness was more influential on popularity leadership than maternal orchestrations were. Findings are discussed in terms of the role of shyness in children's early social competence for both boys and girls.

본 연구는 한국노동패널 자료를 이용하여 경제적 상실과 소득 수준이 청소년 교육성취에 미치는 영양을 분석하였다. 분석의 결과 부모의 실직과 소득상실은 청소년의 학력연수와 대학입학확률 양자와 부정적 관계를 보였다. 이러한 경제적 상실 영양의 대부분은 소득수준을 통제한 후에도 지속되는 것으로 나타났다. 소득수준 또한 청소년의 교육성취에 통계적으로 유의미한 영향을 미치며 빈곤이 청소년의 교육성취에 미치는 영향력은 특히 크게 나타났다. 분석모형에 따라 일관되지 못한 모습을 보이지만 빈곤의 영향력과 경제적 상실의 영향력은 그 크기가 유사하다. 청소년 교육성취모형의 성별 추정 결과는 여자 청소년은 경제적 상실이나 소득 수준 모두에 민감하게 영향받는다는 것을 보여준다. 남자 청소년의 경우 부모 실직이나 소득 상실이 교육성취에 부정적 영양을 미친다는 증거는 발견되지 않은 반면, 소득수준과 빈곤은 교육성취에 영양을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 가족의 빈곤 여부에 관계없이 경제적 상실이 청소년의 교육성취에 부정적 영양을 미친다는 사실을 밝혀, 경제적 상실을 경험하는 가족에 대한 사회적 지원이 우리 사회의 미래를 짊어질 청소년의 건전한 발전을 위해서도 필요함을 시사한다. 또한 본 연구의 발견은 경제적 상실과 빈곤을 동시에 경험하는 가족에 대안 집중적인 지원이 요구됨을 시사한다.

본 연구는 노인의 부모자녀 결속 관계 유형과 그 집단의 특성을 파악하고, 하위 집단별 유형이 삶의 만족에 미치는 영향을 검증하는 것이다. 이를 위해 서울대학교 SSK 고령사회 연구단에서 실시한 '노인의 건강한 노화 및 웰다잉에 관한 연구'의 자료를 활용하였다. 총 2,072명의 자료를 도시와 농촌 지역의 노인 집단으로 구분 후 부모자녀 결속의 유형 분석을 위한 잠재프로파일분석(Latent Profile Analysis)과, 각 하위 집단의 유형 계층이 노인의 삶의 만족 수준에 미치는 영향을 검증하기 위해 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 주요 분석결과는 다음과 같다. 도시 노인과 농촌 노인의 부모자녀 결속 유형은 각각 3가지, 2가지 유형으로 유형화되었다. 각 부모자녀 결속 유형이 노인의 삶의 만족에 미치는 영향을 분석한 결과, 도시에 거주하는 노인의 경우에만 부모 자녀 결속 유형이 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 농촌 거주 노인의 경우 부모 자녀의 결속 유형은 통계적으로 유의미한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 다만, 자녀와의 결속 관계보다는 지역사회 사회응집력과 같은 이웃 및 지역 공동체의 접촉 및 친밀감과 관련한 요인이 삶의 만족에 영향을 미쳤다. 이를 통하여 비혈연중심의 관계 형성의 영향을 예측할 수 있다. 이러한 연구결과를 바탕으로 노인의 삶의 안녕과 만족 향상을 위한 실천적 개입방안 및 정책적 함의를 논의하였다.
