The purpose of this study was to provide basic data on preschool children for accident prevention and improve their health through sound, safe living environment with safety education established through more systematic method. Data were collected from 300 preschoolers(150 preschooler are assigned to experimental group and 150 preschoolers are assigned to control group) from 4 to 6 years old using APP paper test which consists of questions and drawings. To experimental group, safety education were done 4 times within the time of 30 minutes per 1 time using education books, video, OHP, slide. The findings of this study are as follows: 1. There were significant difference in behavioral character between experimental group and control group(χ2=11.690, p= 0.003). So, safety education have effect on the behavioral character of preschooler. 2. In the accident proneness on preschooler between experimental group and control group according to general characteristics, it proved significant difference in the case of accident prevention education were done, movement stability(χ2=8.844, p=0.012) and behavioral character(χ2=6.699, p=0.035), in the case of housing pattern is mixed-type, behavioral character(χ2=10.37, p=0.006), in the case of subjects' age is 4 years old, watchfulness(χ2=9.525, p=0.009), in the case of subjects' age is 5 years old, behavioral character(χ2=7.324, p=0.026), in the case of children's order is second, behavioral character(χ2=14.31, p=0.001), in the case of children's sex is boy, living safety(χ2=7.981, p=0.018), movement speed (χ2=6.661, p=0.036), bihavioral character(χ2=8.837, p=0.012), in the case of children's sex is girl, reasoning power(χ2 =9.78, p=0.008), in the case of childrens have no past accidental experience, behavioral character(χ2=9.862, p=0.007), in the case of nuclear family, movement speed(χ2=6.341, p=0.042) and behavioral character(χ2=9.326, p=0.009), in the case of mothers' age is under thirty behavioral character(χ2=16.40, p=0.000), in the case of mothers' school career is under high school graduate, behavioral character(χ2 =8.375, p=0.015), in the case of mothers' school career is beyond college graduate, reasoning power(χ2=9.803, p=0.007) and behavioral character(χ2=6.205, p=0.045), in the case of mothers' job is part time, movement speed(χ2=10.99, p=0.004), in the case of mothers have no job, movement stability(χ2=8.490, p=0.014) and behavioral character(χ2=10.11, p=0.006). The difference of accident proneness between experimental group and control group according to general characteristics, it also showed that there were significant difference in behavioral character compared to other area..

본 연구는 만3~5세 자녀를 둔 어머니와 만 6~7세 초등 1, 2학년 자녀를 둔 어머니의 행복감 비교를 통하여 유아 및 초등 저학년 어머니의 행복감 특성과 차이를 알아봄으로써 두 집단 어머니의 행복감 증진 방안을 모색하기 위한 기초자료를 제공하기 위해 이루어졌다. 연구대상은 유아 어머니 168명과 초등 저학년 어머니 170명, 총 338명이었으며 연구도구는 Ryff의 심리적 안녕감 척도를 사용하였다. 연구결과, 유아 어머니와 초등 저학년 어머니의 전체 행복감에서는 차이가 없었으나 6개의 하위변인 즉, 자아수용, 긍정적 대인관계, 자율성, 환경통제력, 삶의 목적, 개인적 성장의 변인에서 유아 어머니와 초등 저학년 어머니 간에 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 하위변인 중 자율성과 개인성장의 변인에서는 유아 어머니가 초등 저학년 어머니에 비해 높게 나타났으며, 환경통제력, 긍정적 대인관계, 삶의 목적, 자아수용의 변인에서는 초등 저학년 어머니가 유아 어머니에 비해 높게 나타났다. 또한 어머니의 연령, 학력, 소득, 종교에 따라 유아 어머니와 초등 저학년 어머니의 행복감에는 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 이 같은 결과를 통해 자녀교육이 어머니의 행복감에 주는 영향력과 유 초 연계교육의 필요성을 확인할 수 있었다. 어머니들의 행복감 증진을 위해서는 유 초등 연계교육의 내실화 및 국가적 차원에서 어머니의 일반적 특성에 기초한 체계적인 부모교육과 정책적 지원이 강화될 필요가 있다.

Objectives : The study enquires into OHB and its importance of preschooler mothers, based on perceived experiences of OHE. It also investigates mothers' sense of responsibility for children's oral health. The purpose is to enhance the effectiveness of OHE and its orientation. Methods : From April 20th to June 15th, 2011, 14 nurseries or preschools were randomly selected from childcare facilities of one gu(borough) in Busan. The objects of study are mothers of four to seven-year-old children. The collected survey data were analyzed using SPSS 12.0 for Windows. Results : 1. There is a statistically significant difference(p<0.01) in relations between the mothers' working status and perceived experiences on OHE. 2. On the survey about OHB practices, there are significant differences(p<0.001) in toothbrushing before breakfast, after meals, in three minutes and after refreshments Significant differences(p<0.01) are also shown in toothbrushing after eating fruits. 3. On the survey about the importance of OHB, there are statistical significances(p<0.001) in toothbrushing manner-rather than the number of it-toothbrushing in three minutes after meals and following the correct way of toothbrushing. There are also significant differences(p<0.05) in brushing teeth for more than three minutes. 4. There are significant differences(p<0.001) in mothers' periodic dental examination, children's periodic dental examination and training experience on children's toothbrushing. 5. On the survey about the sense of responsibility for children's OHE based on experiences of OHE, there is a significant difference(p<0.05) in that many replied OHEis "much-needed" regardless of their experiences on it. Conclusions : The results show that of infants' mothers, those with experience on OHE, have an accurate knowledge about toothbrushing, due to the effectiveness of the education. Both groups, however, replied that children's OHE is much needed, suggesting problems about the accessibility of the OHE.
