Convergence Analysis on Conversation between Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law in EBS ‘Multicultural Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law Biograph’

양은미,이현심 한국디지털정책학회 2017 디지털융복합연구 Vol.15 No.7

This study tries to figure out the communication types between a mother-in-law and a foreign daughter-in-law through their ‘confrontational conversation.’ For this, three episodes of ‘Multicultural Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law Biography’ aired by EBS (Education Broadcasting System) were monitored. The dialogues between the mother-in-law and the foreign daughter-in-law were written down and analyzed. According to the result, there were ‘dysfunctional communication’ styles during their conversation. Theses styles deepened their conflict. Thus, to abate the conflict between the mother-in-law and the foreign daughter-in-law, this study suggested that it was necessary to develop the convergence counseling program and the family therapy for their functional communication.

브라질의 정치적 세속성( laicidade)과 공교육의 세속성

양은미 한국 포르투갈-브라질 학회 2013 포르투갈-브라질 연구 Vol.10 No.1

This article aims to examine the process of laicization of the State and the implementation of that principle in the public education in Brazil, and elaborate the key concept ‘laicity’. It is important to address the issue because it is frequent to see that the degree of laicization of the State, in particular, the non-participation of the Catholic Church in public education as one of the goals of modernity in Brazil. Furthermore, the concept of laic State is being explored and used with more frequency and by minority groups in more and more diversified terms. Este artigo tem como objetivo examinar o processo de laicização do Estado brasileiro e a implementação de tal princípio na arena do ensino público e elaborar a conceituação minunciosa dos termos ‘laicidade’ do estado. É importante tratar do assunto porque é frequente citar o grau da laicidade do Estado, em particular, a não-participação da Igreja Católica do ensino público como uma das metas da modernidade no Brasil assim como nos outroso países da América Latina. Além disso, o conceito de estado laico vem sendo explorado cada vez mais frequentemente e pelos grupos minoritários em cada vez mais variados termos com o fim de defender seus interesses.

양은미,이현심,Yang, Eun-Mi,Lee, Hyun-Sim The Society of Digital Policy and Management 2018 디지털융복합연구 Vol.16 No.8

본 연구의 목적은 가족관계 붕괴를 가져오는 부모와 자녀 간의 역기능 의사소통의 유형을 보기 위함이다. 이를 위해 매트릭스 분석 방법을 활용하여 영화 '다우더'의 주요 인물들의 대사와 태도에서 그들의 언어적 행동의 특징을 추출하여 개념화하였다. 이 개념화된 결과를 교류분석과 사티어의 의사소통이론으로 융복합적으로 분석하였다. 분석한 결과는 부모 자녀 간의 역기능적 의사소통이 부모, 자녀 관계에 정서적 붕괴가 일어날 수 있는 위태로운 관계로 악화시킬 수 있다는 것을 보여주었다. 따라서 건강한 부모, 자녀 관계를 유지하기 위해서는 순기능적 의사소통이 중요하며, 이를 위해 수용적 의사소통에 대한 이해와 방법에 대한 부모 자녀 간의 교육프로그램 개발의 필요성을 제언하였다. This study tries to figure out the precarious communication types between parents and their children. For this, the linguistic behavioral characteristics of the main characters in the movie "Daughter" were extracted from their dialogues with the matrix analysis and were conceptualized. These conceptual features were analyzed in the convergence way combined with Transactional analysis and Satir's communication theory. The result shows that the dysfunctional communication between parents and children deteriorates their relation and even could collapse it. Thus. for their whole relation, it is important that they keep the functional communication between them. The study suggested the need for the parental education and youth personality education which let them know how to facilitate their communication.

Global Educational Experience and L2 Learning Motivation of Korean College Students

양은미 한국영어교과교육학회 2013 영어교과교육 Vol.12 No.2

The aim of this study is twofold: first, to investigate the effects of global educational activities on college students’ L2 learning motivation in a Korean EFL context; second, to illuminate the relationship among motivational components more clearly. Quantitative analyses were conducted with 59Korean college students who joined 2 different kinds of global activities:volunteering work programs and an English language program. The results of this study suggest that both groups showed a significantly enhanced level of international posture, ideal L2 self, and intended effort toward learning English, even though there were differences of degrees in the ideal L2 self and intended learning effort, but not in the international posture. It is speculated that the different durations of the programs made these differences. In addition, a conclusion was drawn from this result that international posture,the attitudinal openness to foreigners, is an antecedent of visualizing a more clear future L2 self image, and ideal L2 self was the stronger predictor of being a successful L2 learner who put forth more intended L2 learning effort than international posture.

16-18세기 아마존 일반어(Língua Geral Amazônica)의 탄생과 확장: 원주민의 말에서 정복의 언어로

양은미 한국라틴아메리카학회 2020 라틴아메리카연구 Vol.33 No.3

Língua Geral Amazônica was an official language that functioned for colonization of the Amazon through the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. It was originated from the Tupi or Tupinambá, an inidigenous tribal language, but went through a process of being systematized and detribalized by the Jesuits, which consolidated its position as a standard language of power. In this process, the other indigenous tribes were treated as a single unit called tapuia, and later al indigenous people, whether Tupi or Tapuia, were generalized as Índio Genérico. Currently, the language which has been called Nhengatu since the nineteenth century is still present in the northern part of the Amazon. The aim of this study is to understand what kind of communication was intended by the Portuguese colonizers when they adopted the Língua Geral and promoted its use for colonization of the region. For that purpose, I examine the historical process through which the Tupinambá language was transformed from a coloquial indigenous language to a language of conquest until the mid-eighteenth century. The reason for such delimitation is that the language lost its official position as a general language for communication in 1757 when the Marquis of Pombal prohibited its use. The point of departure for this study is the problematic question concerning the modern Nheengatu, which has recently taken on the symbolic meaning of the indigenous peoples’ struggle for decolonization as well as for the restoration of indigenous identity in Brazil. The paradox exists because although it was created based on an indigenous language, it apparently was the language of conquest in the colonial period. Thus, in this study, by focusing on a series of interpretations on the Língua Geral and its position attributed by the Portuguese colonizers during this period, I estimate how and toward which direction Nheengatu and indigenous related research should develop in the current context.

A Study on Routine Formulas and Downgraders of Request Act in Middle School English Textbooks

양은미 한국영어교육학회 2004 ENGLISH TEACHING(영어교육) Vol.59 No.3

This paper examines middle school English textbooks to ascertain if they appropriately reflect the kinds and frequencies of routine formulas and downgraders of request act used by English native speakers. For the analysis, 9 series of currently available middle school English textbooks under the 7th National Curriculum were selected. Each series of textbooks contains 3 school grade textbooks as middle school English 1, middle school English 2, and middle school English 3. The results show that most textbooks demonstrate an adequate reflection of the actual use of request strategies and downgraders by English native speakers, while several textbooks represent some deficiency. The deficiency partly comes from the lack of diversity in the interlocutors’ relationships, and it results in insufficient language data in the kinds and frequencies of request strategies and downgraders in the textbooks. More polite forms of commonly used routine formulas are not presented adequately in many textbooks. It is suggested that textbook developers and English educators need to work out countermeasures for the textbooks which appeared to have insufficient authentic language data.

Korean college students’ English learning motivation and listening proficiency

양은미 한국영어어문교육학회 2011 영어어문교육 Vol.17 No.2

The aim of this study is twofold. First, this study aimed to explore how Korean university students’ English learning motivation is related to their English listening proficiency and study time. Second, it attempted to interpret the English learning motivation linking the two different motivation theories: self-determination theory and L2 motivational self system. The constructs of the students’ L2 learning motivation were investigated with the data obtained through the questionnaire from 122 sophomore students. A factor analysis was conducted to extract the major factors of motivation. As a result, 6 factors were extracted: Intrinsic Pleasure, Identified Value Regulation, Intrinsic Accomplishment, Introjected Regulation, External Regulation, and Identified Regulation. The Interrelatedness among the assessment results on the L2 listening proficiency (pre and post test), listening study time, and motivation factors was measured by correlation coefficients. The statistical results indicated that pre-test scores were significantly related to Identified Regulation and Identified Value Regulation toward English learning, and post-test results had significant correlation with Intrinsic Accomplishment and Identified Regulation. However, no motivation subtypes showed statistical association with the students’ listening study time. The results were attempted to be interpreted both under L2 motivational self system and self-determination framework to better illuminate the motivation theory with more explanatory power.

Measurement of Fluid Status Using Bioimpedance Methods in Korean Pediatric Patients on Hemodialysis

양은미,박유진,안요한,최현진,강희경,정해일,하일수 대한의학회 2017 Journal of Korean medical science Vol.32 No.11

Adequate fluid management is an important therapeutic goal of dialysis. Recently, bioelectrical impedance methods have been used to determine body fluid status, but pediatric reports are rare. To determine the accuracy of bioelectrical impedance methods in the assessment of body fluid statusof children undergoing hemodialysis (HD), 12 children on HD were studied. A multi-frequency bioimpedance analysis device (Inbody S10) and bioimpedance spectroscopy device (BCM) were used to evaluate fluid status. Fluid removal during a HD session (assessed as body-weight change, ΔBWt) was compared with the difference in total body water determined by each device (measured fluid difference, ΔMF), which showed strong correlation using either method (Pearson's coefficient, r = 0.772 with Inbody S10 vs. 0.799 with BCM). Bioimpedance measurement indicated fluid overload (FO; ΔHS greater than 7%) in 34.8% with Inbody S10 and 56.5% with BCM, and only about 60% of children with FO by bioimpedance methods showed clinical symptoms such as hypertension and edema. In some patients with larger weight gain Inbody S10-assessed overhydration (OH) was much smaller than BCM-assessed OH, suggesting that BCM is more relevant in estimating fluid accumulation amount than Inbody S10. To our knowledge, this is the first report on the use of body composition monitors to assess fluid status in Korean children receiving HD.

Um diálogo sobre o Outro entre Claude Lévi-Strauss e Hannah Arendt

양은미 한국 포르투갈-브라질 학회 2008 포르투갈-브라질 연구 Vol.5 No.1

This study is initiated with several observations realized in the Brazilian society which is frequently characterized with its vast diversity and peaceful coexistence among its components. However, this unique society is one which is much different from what it portrays. Motivated by these observations, this article tentatively contemplates the question of Otherness as a counterpart of I, aiming at understanding chronic problems such as prejudice and discrimination toward minorities in various contexts and today's ambiguous and unstable individual identity. For a better contemplation on the theme, the paper brings together relevant ideas and beliefs commonly found in Claude Levi-Strauss and Hannah Arendt, constructing a dialogue between two authors. Subsequently, it emphasizes the intrinsic role of education which orients people to communicate in a broader and appropriate way with others and to equip oneself with critical auto-reflection.
