2~3세 자녀를 둔 어머니의 양육 신념, 효능감 및 스트레스가 양육행동에 미치는 영향 = The Effects of Maternal Parental Beliefs, Efficacy and Stress on Mother’s Parenting Behaviors

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of parental beliefs, efficacy and stress on mother’s parenting behaviors. The subjects were 243 mothers of two to three-year-old children in Seoul. The main results showed that parental beliefs, efficacy and stress were significantly related with parenting behaviors. That is, the results of multiple regression analysis indicated that parental efficacy, beliefs and stress were significant variables predicting mother?s parenting behavior. However, the predictive powers of these variables were different depending on the characteristics of parenting behaviors. And the relationship between mother?s parental stress and parenting behaviors was mediated by mother?s parental efficacy. To conclude, mother?s cognitions such as parental beliefs, parental efficacy, and a perception of parenting stress turned out to be the vital factors in predicting parenting behaviors.주제어(Key Words): 양육 신념(parenting beliefs), 양육 효능감(parenting efficacy), 양육 스트레스 (parenting stress), 양육 행동(parenting behavior)
