본 연구는 보육현장의 질적 수준을 향상시키기 위한 목적으로 국공립 어린이집과 민간 어린이집에서 근무하는 보육교사들을 대상으로 보육교사의 효능감이 직무만족에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고자 한다. 보육교사들이 어린이집에서 근무하는데 변화의 잠재력을 보여주고 이들을 발전시킬 기회를 제공하기 위해서는 보육교사의 효능감이 무엇보다 중요하다. 또한 이를 바탕으로 영유아와 학부모에게 양질의 보육서비스를 제공하기 위해서는 보육교사의 직무만족이 필수적이다. 이에 본 연구에서 국공립 어린이집과 민간 어린이집에서 근무하는 보육교사들의 개인적 특성과 효능감을 비교하여 보육교사의 직무만족 향상을 위한 다양한 실천과제를 논의하였다. 연구결과는 첫째, 어린이집 소재지는 국공립 어린이집과 민간 어린이집 보육교사 모두의 직무만족도에 유의한 영향을 미치는 공통요인으로 나타났다. 둘째, 국공립 어린이집 보육교사들은 민간 어린이집 보육교사들과는 달리 가정연계 및 긍정적 학습환경 조성효능감에서 직무만족도에 유의한 영향을 미치고 있었다. 셋째, 국공립 어린이집과 민간 어린이집 보육교사의 직무만족도에 있어 의사결정참여 효능감이 공통적으로 유의한 영향요인으로 나타났다.

The purpose of the current study was to select vulnerable regions with insufficient child care services based on an in-depth investigation of diverse regional characteristics and to establish a practical goal for the expansion of public child care centers through identifying priority regions in foremost need of public child care centers out of the vulnerable regions. The vulnerable regions were selected from both urban and rural areas with particular criterions to determine their critical situation. First of all, the number of children aged zero to five, private and public child care centers, and capacity and enrolment of the regional child care center were selected from towns (Eup) and townships (Myeon) within rural areas and neighborhoods (Dong) within urban areas to calculate the capacity fulfillment. Specifically, a dense population of low-income families inhabited within urban areas defined the region's vulnerable status for the analysis, whereas poor accessibility of a child care center within rural areas correspond to the lack of child care services. The analytical result displayed that a total of 456 towns and townships did not acquire child care centers. Out of 456 towns and townships, 162 were selected as priority regions. On the other hand, 546 neighborhoods corresponding to upper 30 percentiles of urban area where children receive basic subsidy for low income families were selected as vulnerable regions. Out of 546 neighborhoods, 243 were selected as priority regions according to the analytical result.

Nutrition during childhood is essential for growth and maintenance of health. Good food habits developed during the childhood will contribute both to the healthy growth and the prevention of the degenerative disease of later life. Both parents and the providers in child care centers play an important role for children's good eating behavior. Therefore all child care programs should achieve recommended standards for meeting children's nutritional and educational needs in a safe, sanitary, and supportive environment to promote the healthy growth and development of children. The purposes of this study were to evaluate the foodservice management practices and assess the needs for a Central Production Unit by contacting the child care center' providers. This approach was achieved using a variety of qualitative and quantitative information including the general foodservice management practices and the needs for a Central Production Unit. An indepth face-to-face interview with structured-questionnaires was undertaken at 32 representative child-care centers in Seoul. Statistical data analysis was done using the SAS program for descriptive analysis and ANOVA. The number of national/public and private sectors were 11 respectively, followed by 10 licensed home day-care centers. Total average number of children in child-care centers was 54.3 $\pm$48.5. The foodservice productivity index in child-care centers was 4.8 minutes per meal for public child care centers, 6.0 for private child-care centers, and 9.8 for home child care centers. Home child care centers were found to have the lowest productivity index which indicated inefficient foodservice practice. The important factors in group purchasing were menus(39.6%) or close distance(39.6%) > type of foodservice operation(32.8%) > total number of meals(19.9%) > food costs(16.2%) in order. Average score of the efficiency for central food production in child-care centers was 3.80 $\pm$0.84 out of 5.
