Abstract/Notes: This study aims to investigate the relationship between parental attitude and children's playfulness and to highlight the importance of it. The subjects of this study are 147 children aged 4 and 5, their father or mother, and their teachers from educational institutions located in Daejeon. The questionnaire for parental attitude is Schaefer's "Maternal Behavior Research Instrument", translated by Wonyoung Lee (1983). For children's playfulness, Children's Playfulness Scale(CPS) is used, which was invented with the concept of playfulness defined by Barnett (1991) & Lieberman (1977). The research results are as followings: First, there is significant differences of parental attitude between fathers and mothers in all the categories of parental attitudes: loving, refusing, autonomous, and controlling attitudes. Second, there is significant difference of parental attitude by children's gender, in particular in the refusing attitude, while there is not any significant difference of parental attitude by children's age. However, in the loving attitude, 4-aged group gained significantly higher marks than 5-year group. Third, there is significant difference of children's playfulness by children's gender and age. Particularly in physical playfulness as one of sub-category of children's playfulness, boys show better physical spontaneity than girls significantly. There is significant difference of children's playfulness by children's age. For cognitive spontaneity as one of sub-category of children's playfulness, 5 aged children show higher marks than 4 aged children while 4 aged children show statistically higher marks in happiness expression than 5 aged children. Fourth, there is significantly positive relationship between father's loving attitude and children's social spontaneity. As father's controlling attitude is higher, physical, social, and cognitive spontaneity of children is higher. There is significantly positive relationship between mother's controlling attitude and children's physical spontaneity while there is negative relationship between mother's refusing attitude and children's cognitive spontaneity. However, overall there is not significant relationship between father and mother's parenting attitude and children's playfulness. / 본 연구에서는 만 4, 5세 유아의 아버지와 어머니의 양육태도가 연령과 성별에 따라 어떻게 다른지, 또한 부모의 양육태도와 유아의 놀이성과의 관계는 어떠한지에 대해 알아보았다. 연구의 대상은 교육 및 보육기관에 재원중인 만 4, 5세 유아 147명과 그들의 부모인 아버지 147명과 어머니 147명 총 441명이다. 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 아버지와 어머니의 양육태도는 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 유아의 성별에 따른 아버지와 어머니의 양육태도는 아버지와 어머니 둘 다 거부적 태도에서 유의미한 차이를 보였다. 유아의 연령에 따른 아버지와 어머니의 양육태도는 차이가 없었다. 셋째, 유아의 성별과 연령에 따라 유아의 놀이성은 차이가 있었다. 넷째, 아버지의 애정적 태도가 높을수록 유아의 사회적 자발성이 높게 나타났다. 그리고 아버지의 통제적 태도가 높을수록 신체적 자발성, 사회적 자발성, 인지적 자발성이 높게 나타났다. 다섯째, 어머니의 통제적 태도가 높을수록 유아의 신체적 자발성이 높으며, 어머니의 거부적 태도가 높을수록 인지적 자발성이 낮은 것으로 나타났다.

Helping Children Navigate Global Tragedy

Available from: ProQuest

Abstract/Notes: Because we experience the trauma of global tragedy in a much more immediate and unfiltered way than we used to, it is more difficult for us to shield ourselves and our children from the barrage of sensationalized and politicized images flooding our environment. To achieve this, I looked for articles that: * were Montessori-compatible in that they had at their center the experience of the child, aligned with our understanding of the planes of development, and spoke to the human tendencies toward orientation, gregariousness, order, communication, exploration, and self-perfection; * were parent-friendly in that they were easy to read and digest, offered practical advice, and did not put added pressure on parents to be more perfect or blame parents for not being able to control children's media exposure; * were accurate from a child development and psychology perspective, and offered a realistic view of how media are produced and disseminated; * came from sources that are reasonably reputable and proactive in their management of other social issues; * put the onus on the adult, not the child, to create an environment in which resilience can be developed (in essence, furthering the spiritual preparation of the teacher). "According to the UN, young people, including children, are the largest group of people affected by disasters across the world. " "Talking to Children about Violence: Tips for Parents and Teachers," by the National Association of School Psychologists (bit.ly/2rFWIsK) This article presents 7 tips to support children in dealing with the aftermath of violent events, along with a list of talking points to use that will reassure children while maintaining a realistic outlook.
