본 연구는 미국 LA지역의 한인 이주민 사례를 통해, 한인 이주민의 정착과정에서 한인네트워크 역할을 살펴보고, 한인네트워크의 활성화 방안을 모색하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 분석결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째로, 미국으로의 최초 이주 및 주거지 선정과정에서 대부분의 응답자들은 한인네트워크와 민족공동체인 한인타운을 활용한 것으로 나타난다. 분산분석 결과를 보면, 한인네트워크의 역할은 최초 이주지가 LA지역인 집단, 초기 정착지가 한인타운인 집단, 현지 적응능력이 떨어지는 50대 이상의 고령자인 집단에서 더 중요하게 작용한 것을 확인할 수 있다. 둘째로, 응답자들은 한인네트워크를 종교활동, 쇼핑활동, 경제활동 분야에서 많이 활용하는 것으로 나타난다. 특히, 이주기간이 짧고, 고령이고, 영어능력이 부족하여 미국 주류사회에 편입이 어려운 집단에서 상대적으로 더 많이 활용하는 것으로 나타난다. 셋째로, 한인 이주민의 한인네트워크 활성화 필요성에 대한 인식을 보면, 응답자들은 한인네트워크를 미국 주류사회와의 유대강화를 위해 우선적으로 활용하기를 원하는 것으로 나타난다. 넷째로, 한인네트워크의 활성화 방안으로, 한인교회, 한인 경제단체, 한민족포털, 재외공관을 활용하는 방안을 제시하였다.

This paper aims at analyzing the role of Korean ethnic network in the settlement process of Korean immigrants, and elucidating their utilization measures, through the case Study of Korean Immigrants in LA. The main results of this study are as follows. Firstly, the majority of respondents used Korean ethnic networks and Korean town in the immigration process. According to the results of ANOVA test, Korean ethnic network are more importantly considered by the groups such as elderly, livers in Korean town, and people who the first settlement was LA. Secondly, respondents more frequently use Korean ethnic network in the activities such as church, shopping and business. Especially, the groups such as short immigration term, elderly, poor English ability are more frequently use Korean ethnic network. Thirdly, Viewing the cognition of respondents about the necessity of Korean ethnic networks, respondents want to use them for strengthening the ties of domination society. Finally, utilization of Korean ethnic churches, Korean ethnic business organizations and Korean ethnic web-site portal are proposed for activating Korean ethnic networks.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the impacts of social support and acculturative stress on depression among Korean registered nurses in the United States. Method: In total, 137 nurses were recruited through direct interviews and online surveys. The data were collected through a structured questionnaire from June 1, to September 16, 2012, and analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Scheff$\acute{e}$'s test, Pearson correlation coefficient, and stepwise multiple regression with SPSS WIN 14.0. Results: Social support significantly differed by the length of one's nursing career in US, monthly income and perceived health status. Acculturative stress significantly differed by the length of one's nursing career in US and types of employment setting. Depression significantly differed by the total length of one's nursing career, type of employment setting, and perceived health status. Moreover, Depression was negatively correlated with social support; positively correlated with acculturative stress; social support was negatively correlated with acculturative stress. Factors influencing depression were acculturative stress, perceived health status, and social support, which explained about 23% of the total variance. Conclusion: These results suggest that an adaptation program that decreases acculturative stress and improves social support should be developed and implemented for Korean nurses to help them successfully integrate into the healthcare system of new country.

This study investigated the relationships between the husband's support, depression, parenting self-efficacy, and parenting behavior of Korean American mothers and their children's self-esteem. The participants were 113 Korean American child-mother dyads (grades 3-8) from Southern California, USA. The data, including the mothers' parenting behavior as assessed by their children, were collected from self-report questionnaires. A path analysis indicated that the effects of the above mentioned variables on the children's self-esteem depended on the subscale model of the parenting behavior. In every subscale model of parenting behavior, the husband's support was positively related to the parenting self-efficacy and the mother's depression was negatively related to the parenting self-efficacy. Further, in the warmth-acceptance model, the husband's support was positively related to the parenting behavior, the mother's depression was negatively related to the parenting behavior, parenting self-efficacy was positively related to both the parenting behavior and the children's self-esteem, and the parenting behavior was positively related to the children's self-esteem. In the rejection-restriction model, the husband's support was negatively related to the parenting behavior, the mother's depression was positively related to the parenting behavior, the parenting self-efficacy was negatively related to the parenting behavior and was positively related to the children's self-esteem, and the parenting behavior was negatively related to the children's self-esteem. In the permissiveness-nonintervention model, the parenting behavior was negatively related to the children's self-esteem. These results, particularly the dependence on the subscale model of parenting behavior, will be helpful in understanding the effects of parenting on Korean American children's self-esteem.

This study has the purpose for which we will analyze the lives of Korean women in a foreign country, Toulouse France, through the phenomenological approach. We will address the problems revealed Korean in everyday life and how they overcome their problems. Participants in this study are a total of ten Korean women who live in Toulouse and around the city, including the purpose of this study, coming to understand the researcher and who agree to participate in this study. After analyzing the presentations of the participants, we leaded ahead five areas and 13 important concepts. With these concepts, we will restructure and predict the lives of women Korean-Toulousaines.

This study explores the daily life patterns and housing adjustment behaviors of low-income Korean elderly immigrants residing in affordable housing in the Chicago metropolitan area. Utilizing an intercultural perspective, the study focuses on identifying the immigrants' their cultural attributes of daily living and coping responses to residential misfits. These housing adjustment behaviors are classified into five modes consisting of residential mobility, structural adaptation, residential alteration, normative adaptation, and behavioral adaptation. Two-hour in-depth interviews with open-ended questions were conducted with 138 participants from 15 affordable housing complexes. Collected information includes demographic data, immigration experiences and cultural identity, daily life patterns, as well as housing evaluation and housing adjustment behaviors. The study results indicate that many research participants maintained their cultural attributes of daily living accumulated from past experiences (i.e. mostly based upon Korean cultural contexts), but also made adjustments as they complied with their aging body and new living conditions. This also reflects that immigrants' cultural needs are not limited to the use of language and ethnic goods, but are also embedded deeply in their daily life patterns to influence one's uses of the dwellings in a broader sense. All five modes of housing adjustment behaviors were observed with research participants within their residential settings. More importantly, normative and behavioral adaptations along with residential alterations occurred more simultaneously rather than sequentially when the respondents perceived discrepancy between oneself (i.e. including one's attributes, needs, and preferences) and his/her dwelling.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of resilience and job satisfaction on organizational commitment in Korean-American registered nurses. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using a structured questionnaire survey with 203 Korean-American registered nurses living in New York State and New Jersey State. Data were collected from May 8 to August 25, 2012. Collected data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, Scheff$\acute{e}$ test and hierarchical multiple regression. Results: The mean organizational commitment of Korean-American registered nurses was $3.34{\pm}0.59$ out of a possible 5.00. The resilience and job satisfaction were significant variables predicting the level of organizational commitment among Korean-American registered nurses, accounting for 50% of the variability. Conclusion: The results of the study indicate that it is necessary to identify factors influencing job satisfaction and develop programs to strengthen personal resilience in order to increase organizational commitment.

기존의 에스닉 인클레이브 연구는 지리학자들의 참여가 상대적으로 부진한 상황에서 에스닉 네트워크를 강조함에 따라 지리적 맥락과 산업 생산체계의 공간적 함의에 대한 설명이 별로 이루어지지 않아 이에 대한 이해가 매우 제한적이었다. 본 연구는 브라질 봉헤찌로 한인 의류산업지구를 사례로 봉헤찌로의 발전 경로와 의류산업의 생산체계 그리고 에스닉 네트워크를 함께 고찰함으로써 한인 인클레이브의 형성 메커니즘을 규명하고자 했다. 연구지역의 형성에는 에스닉 네트워크의 역할도 중요하지만, 이주자 의류 산업지역이라는 지역의 발전 경로와 의류산업의 생산체계와 관련하여 나타나는 공간적 수렴현상에도 그 원인이 있으며, 이 과정에는 비동족 이주자 집단 및 브라질 현지인들의 참여도 활발하게 이루어졌음을 알 수 있었다.

Previous studies of ethnic enclaves did not provide an adequate explanation of the geographical contexts and spatial implications of industrial production systems, as a result of emphasizing ethnic networks with stagnant participation from geographers. The objective of this study was to identify and examine the formation mechanism of Korean ethnic enclaves through the case of Bom Retiro's Korean garment industrial district in Brazil, specifically by performing an integrated review of the development path of Bom Retiro, the garment industry's production systems, and ethnic networks. The research findings indicated that the formation of this region's ethnic enclave was indeed highly influenced by ethnic networks; however, it was also affected by the development path of the region as a migrant garment industrial district and spatial convergence pertaining to the production systems of garment industries. Moreover, the formation of Bom Retiro's ethnic enclave also involved active participation of non-ethnic immigrant communities and local Brazilians.

The principle of aging-in-place should be fundamental in designing post-retirement homes to support baby boomers' healthy aging in their current living conditions. This study investigated Korean-American baby boomers' opinions about their life images in their post-retirement homes and the needs for supportive services therein. A questionnaire survey was conducted, and a total of 247 responses were used for statistical analyses. As the most important life image for their post-retirement homes, baby boomers emphasized the living environments offering various recreational activities. They indicated the post-retirement homes close to their children or family members as the next important life image. These opinions differed depending on their socioeconomic characteristics. In particular, baby boomers with higher-income preferred housing environments offering diverse recreational activities while those with lower-income preferred the housing close to more employment opportunities. In terms of supportive services available in the post-retirement homes, they wanted 'healthcare assistance services' and 'diverse recreational programs.' Gender, educational attainment, and annual income affected their preferences in these services, though. Based on the findings, this study concluded that post-retirement housing environments should create spaces to accommodate various recreational activities and include places for them to work in near-home environments. In the community, various need-based customized recreational activities and educational programs should be planned considering different socioeconomic characteristics of baby boomers. All these considerations will provide supportive residential environments for their successful aging in place.

본 연구의 목적은 Rosenthal의 내러티브-생애사 인터뷰 분석의 실제를 보여주는 데에 있다. 이에, 한 재독한인노동이주자의 인터뷰를 사례로 하여 생애사적 데이터의 연속적 분석, 텍스트분석과 주제적 영역분석, 체험된 생애사의 재구성과 연속적 세밀분석, 이야기된 생애사와 체험된 생애사의 비교 분석의 절차에 따라 단계별로 분석한 결과를 제시하였고, 이를 통해 Rosenthal의 내러티브-생애사 인터뷰 분석의 실제를 보여주었다. 이어, 이러한 연구가 사회복지학 분야 생애사 연구와 사회복지실천에 시사하는 함의를 논의하였다.

The current research intends to show the practice of the narrative-biographical interviews analysis developed by Rosenthal. As an example of this, the research analysed an interview with a Korean migrant worker in Germany in 4 stages as follows: 1. analysis of biographical data, 2. text and thematic field analysis, 3. reconstruction of life as lived and sequential fine analysis, 4. contrasting the life-story as narrated with life as lived. Based on the research, some implications for the biographical research in the social welfare and for the social work practice were addressed.

본 연구의 목적은 재독한인 노동이주남성의 젠더 정체성을 생애사적 사례재구성 방법에 기초해 분석하는 것이었다. 이에, 해당 남성 5명의 생애사를 재구성한 결과, 이들의 생애사를 관통하는 젠더 정체성은 '직업생활을 중시한 개인으로서의 남성' 정체성임을 발견하였다. 그리고 이러한 정체성은 직업사적 굴절이나 단절의 정도, 이주 이전의 직업과 결혼의 경험 여부에 따라 이주국의 복지를 경험하는 과정에서 연속적 혹은 비연속적으로 재생산되기도 하였고, '생계와 가사를 분담하거나 분 전담하는 남편으로서의 남성' 정체성과 결합되는 방식으로 지체적 혹은 압축적으로 분화되기도 하였음을 도출하였다. 이러한 연구결과에 의거해 사회복지와 생애사 연구에 시사하는 함의를 논의하였다.

The research intended to analyse gender identities of Korean male migrant workers in Germany through the biographical case reconstruction. Five cases were reconstructed and the following conclusions were drawn: A 'work-oriented identity of man as an individual' was formed through their biographies. And according to the terms of the interruptions and the discontinuities in their employment biographies, and in relation with their experiences of employment and marriage before migration, the 'work-oriented identity of man as an individual' was continuously or discontinuously reproduced in their experiences with welfare systems and social services in migration, as well as delayed or compressively differentiated in combination with a 'livelihood and household responsibilities sharing or sharing-exclusive identity of man as a husband' in their same experiences. Based on these results, some implications for the theory and practice of social work were addressed, furthermore some implications for the biographical research.

미국의 복지개혁 이후 근로연계와 더불어 가정폭력분야 여성복지에서 가장 중요한 정책 목표 중 하나로 설정된 것은 '자활(self-sufficiency)'이다. 본 연구는 '아래로부터의 관점(bottom-up approach)'에 근거하여 가정폭력피해로 한부모가 된 미국 한인 빈곤 여성들의 자활 경험을 심층적으로 탐색하기 위해 질적연구를 수행하였다. 연구결과를 통해, 참여자들에게 '자활'은 '경제적 자립뿐만 아니라 정신적 자립 능력을 모두 갖추어 나가는 삶의 지속적 과제이자 과정'으로 확인되었다. 그들의 자활로의 도전들은 자활 과정 초기 가정폭력피해의 후유증으로 무너진 자활 잠재력의 복원이 필요한 시기와 장기적 차원에서 자활 과정을 유지해야 하는 자활 지탱력의 개발 시기를 포함한다. 이 도전들에 대처하기 위한 그들의 욕구는 '친정집 같은 도움과 지원', '선택과 집중의 복지지원', '성숙한 의존과 자활' 그리고 '생계유지가 아닌 꿈의 성취로서의 자활' 등으로 확인되었다. 가정폭력피해 한부모의 특수성과 이민자로서의 현실에 민감한 자활 정책 및 서비스 개선의 구체적 전략들이 제안되었다.

Self-sufficiency has been recognized as one of the most important welfare goals for women in the domestic violence field since the welfare reform in the U.S. A qualitative research design was conducted to explore the self-sufficiency experience of Korean-American single mothers with the history of domestic violence in poverty. The meaning of 'self-sufficiency' to participants is that a continuing task or process in life to move toward being independent mentally as well as economically. Their challenges toward self-sufficiency include the period of restoration of their potentials for self-sufficiency destroyed by domestic violence victimization and divorce, and the period of developing their sustainability for self-sufficiency. Their needs for 'help and support similar to care from the woman's parents' home', 'welfare service of select and concentration', 'mature dependency and self-sufficiency', and 'self-sufficiency from survival to dream come true' to cope with the challenges formentioned are reported. Concrete strategies for the development of self-sufficiency polices and services sensitive to immigrant single mothers with the history of domestic violence are suggested.

This research investigates and characterizes lifestyles and housing preferences of Korean-American Baby Boomers in the USA, and proposes future housing design and planning directions to meet their needs. A questionnaire survey was conducted from June to September 2012 examining lifestyles and preferred characteristics of postretirement homes. We targeted Korean-Americans born from 1955 to 1963 in either Korea or the USA who currently reside in New York, Washington DC, Chicago, Dallas, Detroit, Lansing, Grand Rapids, and San Francisco. To analyze the 247 responses, we employed factor analysis, cluster analysis, one-way ANOVA, and crosstabs. Respondents preferred three-bedroom, singlefamily housing types with a size of 26-35 pyong, favoring city outskirts or suburbs over urban areas. Four groups having different lifestyle types were identified: innovators, believers, fashion experiencers, and makers. Housing preference differed depending on lifestyle types. The 'innovator' group desired homes 56 pyong or larger, while the other groups preferred 26-36 pyong. The four lifestyle groups did not show statistically significant differences in most of preferred housing features, community facilities, or indoor environmental characteristics. Each group still showed slightly different preferences in some housing planning characteristics, which future planners can refer to when providing postretirement homes for them.

Purpose: This study was to examine the impact of acculturation and social support on the mental health among Korean-American registered nurses. Methods: Data were collected with a convenience sample of 203 Korean-American registered nurses living in New York state and New Jersey state from 8th May to 25th August in 2012. The structured questionnaires measured the degree of acculturation, social support, and mental health. Data analysis was conducted using t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation efficient, and Stepwise multiple regression. Results: Lower level of integration and higher level of marginalization were associated with the lower mental health. Social support was also positively related to mental health and had mediating effect on the relationship between acculturation and mental health. The five variables, including participants' educational background, work shift, integration, marginalization, and social support were significant to predict the level of mental health among Korean-American registered nurses, accounting for 41% of the variability. Conclusion: The results imply that higher level of social support and strong identity of both home and host culture will enable Korean-American registered nurses to maintain sound mental health.

본 연구는 베리의 문화변용이론을 중심으로 재미한인의 문화변용전략과 미디어 콘텐츠이용에 대해서 살펴보고자 했다. 이를 위해서 미국 포틀랜드에 거주하고 있는 한국인 이민자 및 유학생을 모집단으로 하여, 비 확률표본 표집 방법을 이용하여 표본을 선정하였다. 설문지는 영어와 한국어 두 종류를 준비해 응답자가 선택토록 하였으며, 총 391부의 설문지 중 일률적으로 특정 번호를 표시하거나 결측 값이 지나치게 많거나 응답자 답변이 비일관성을 띤 표본20개를 제외한 총 371부의 설문지를 최종 분석대상으로 했다. 연구결과에 의하면, 재미한인들은 통합전략(M=4.57)과 분리전략(M=4.49)을 주로 사용하며 미국의 주류사회로 동화(M=2.92)되는 경향은 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 분리전략을 취하는 정도가 강화될수록 모국인 한국미디어 콘텐츠 이용을 많이 하는 것으로 밝혀졌으며, 미국사회에 동화하고자 할수록(동화전략을 선호할수록) 미국미디어 콘텐츠를 더 많이 이용하는 것으로 나타났다. 나아가 미디어 콘텐츠의 장르별 이용 차이가 동화와 분리 전략 집단에서 나타나고 있다. 동화전략 구사 정도가 전체 응답자의 평균 2.96보다 높은 응답자들의 경우, 미국 엔터테인먼트 콘텐츠(M=4.64)를 미국 뉴스콘텐츠(M=4.00)보다 많이 이용하는 것으로 분석됐다. 이에 반해, 분리전략 구사 정도가 전체 응답자의 평균 4.49보다 높은 응답자들은 다른 결과를 보여 주고 있다. 미국미디어 콘텐츠의 이용의 경우, 뉴스(M=3.11)보다는 엔터테인먼트(M=4.10)를 더 많이 이용하는 것으로 나타났으며, 이와 반대로 한국미디어 콘텐츠의 경우 엔터테인먼트(M=4.53)보다는 뉴스(M=4.84)를 더 이용하는 것으로 분석됐다.

The study examined acculturation patterns of Korean-Americans living in Portland, USA and their relationship to the consumption of media contents. Under the academic guidance of Berry's acculturation model, the four strategies of acculturation model were extensively inquired that immigrants and sojourner would adopt in host culture: Integration, Assimilation, Separation and Marginalization. Furthermore, how differently the four acculturation modes are related to media contents was examined. For this study, the survey questionnaires were administered among Korean Americans in Portland, USA. The total 371 data were collected and analyzed. The result indicated that 1) they preferred integration(M=4.57) and separation modes(M=4.49) over assimilation (M=2.92); 2) as separation tendency increased, the preference of Korean contents over American contents increased while as assimilation tendency increased, the preference of American contents over Korean contents; 3) high assimilation persons consumed more news than entertainments in American media contents. Compared to it, high separation persons used more entertainments than news in American media contents and more news than entertainments in Korean media contents.

This paper aims at, analyzing the characteristics of immigration path, residential status and residential location preference of Korean immigrants in Washington State of United State. The main results of this study are as follows. Firstly, according to the questionnaire survey results, respondents tend to prefer own housing as their incomes are higher. Secondly, Location factors which respondents most prefer are safety, natural environment and school district. Thirdly, household income influences the housing ownership rate of respondents, according to the result of binomial logistic regression analysis on the impact of individual characteristics of the respondents on the housing ownership structure. Finally, according to the results of logistic regression analysis on the impact of individual characteristics and housing ownership structure of the respondents on the residential location preferences, (1) respondents who own housings more prefer school district as residential location factor, (2) respondents their age are over 40 years old prefer safety/amenity as residential location factor, (3) respondents their immigration period are more than 10 years prefer safety/amenity as residential location factor, (4) respondents their initial immigration region are not Washington state prefer safety/amenity as residential location factor.

본 연구의 목적은 이주여성의 생애사에서는 어떠한 젠더가 구성되고 있는 것으로 재현되고 있는지, 그 과정을 분석하는 데에 있다. 이를 위해 간호노동자로 이주한 10명의 재독한인여성들과 Schutze(1983)의 생애사적-내러티브 인터뷰를 실시하였고, 인터뷰 자료도 그의 분석방법에 의거해 분석하였다. 그 결과, 이들의 생애사에 재현된 젠더는 결혼 이전까지는 동일한 양상을 보였으나, 결혼 이후에는 직업과 가정을 양립한 경우와 가정에만 전념한 경우에 따라 다른 양상을 보임을 포착할 수 있었다. 즉, 이주 이전의 여학생이나 노동여성으로서의 '인생진행 과정'에서는 두 경우 모두 성분리적 젠더를 부분적으로 '해체'했고, 이주 이후의 노동이주여성으로 전환된 인생진행 과정에서는 성중립적 젠더를 부분적으로 '행했는데', 결혼 이후의 인생진행 과정에서는 전자의 경우에는 노동이주여성과 결혼이주여성으로서의 이중적 위치에서 성중립적 젠더를 더욱 강화시키고 있었고 또 강화시키고 있는 것과는 달리, 후자의 경우에는 결혼이주여성으로 전환된 단일한 위치에서 성분리적 젠더를 다시 재구성하였고 시간이 경과함에 따라 이를 더욱 고착화시키고 있는 차이가 있음을 추적할 수 있었다. 이에, 이러한 연구결과에 근거해 이주여성의 생애사에 재현된 젠더를 이해한 사회복지실천에 시사하는 함의를 제시하였다.

The current research intends to analyse the construction process of gender in the biographies of migrant women. Ten autobiographical-narrative interviews with Korean female migrant workers in Germany were conducted and the following conclusions were ascertained through the analysis of Schutze's autobiographical-narrative interview: The genders in their biographies were constructed similar before their marriage, but different after their marriage according to the work-family balanced type and the family centered type. Before their migration the 'process of life' as female high school students and female workers showed that both types had partially deconstructed a sex-segregated gender. The process of life as female migrant workers after their migration showed that both types had partially constructed a sex-neutral gender. The process of life after their marriage exhibited that the former strengthened and strengthens a sex-neutral gender in a double position as female migrant workers and female marriage migrants, but the latter reconstructed a sex-segregated gender again and intensifies this in a process of time. Based on these results, some implications for the social work practice were addressed, which emerged from the understanding on the gender in the biographies of migrant women.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify predictors of drinking problems in Korean international students in the United States. Methods: The subjects involved this study were 190 Korean international students in the United States. Data were measured using a drinking problems questionnaire, an acculturative stress scale for international student, and the CES-D. The collected data were analyzed using the SPSS/WIN 17.0 program to calculate mean, standard deviation, ANOVA, Sheff$\acute{e}$ test and pearson's correlation coefficient. and stepwise multiple regression. Results: 1) The mean score of the degree of perceived acculturative stress was $2.15{\pm}0.63$, of depression was $17.67{\pm}9.85$, and of drinking problems was $15.03{\pm}15.52.2$) There were significant correlations between acculturative stress and drinking problems (r=.506, p<.001), between depression and drinking problems (r=.6726, p<.001), and between acculturative stress and depression (r=.453, p<.001). 3) In stepwise multiple regression analysis the most powerful predictor of drinking problems were acculturative stress (${\beta}$=.243, p<.001), and depression (${\beta}$=.562, p<.001). Conclusion: Based on the results, practical implications for reducing the acculturative stress and improving the psychological well-being of Korean students were discussed.

본 논문은 미국 조지아 주 애틀랜타와 인근 지역(이하 메트로 애틀란타)의 한인인구와 한인업체의 지역별 분포 및 특징을 살펴봄으로써 새롭게 부상하고 있는 메트로 애틀랜타 한인사회의 전반적인 성장과정을 파악하고자 한다. 특히 메트로 애틀랜타에 입지한 한인업체의 시기별 성장과정과 주요 지역 및 업종별 입지 동향 분석을 통해 한인업체의 공간적 분포의 특성을 파악하고자 한다. 이를 위해 애틀랜타 한인 이민의 역사를 살펴보았으며, 메트로 애틀랜타 한인업체의 입지 동향과 주요 업종별 입지 동향을 지역별로 분석하였다. 그 결과 메트로 애틀랜타 한인업체의 주요 입지는 교통의 발달, 새로운 지역의 개발, 교육 여건, 인종별 주거 비중의 변화 등으로 인해 애틀랜타 북동쪽의 외곽으로 급속히 확산되고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 이와 함께 한인업체의 주요 업종은 미국의 제도, 한인 거주민의 이주, 시장 전략 등에 따라 소매업과 음식점 및 주점업에서 부동산업과 금융업으로 전환되었고, 소매업의 입지 비중이 상대적으로 감소되었다는 사실도 밝혀졌다.

The main purpose of this paper is to analysis the growth process of new emerging Korean society in Georgia, the USA by investigating changes in the regional distribution of Korean business located in metro Atlanta region. More specifically, it aims to identify the characteristics of spatial distribution of Korean business in metro Atalanta through their locational trends since 1980s. To this end, it has explored the history of Korean migration into Georgia and the locational trends of Korean firms in metro Atlanta by industries. As a result, the main location of Korean firms has expanded into the northeastern regions of Atlanta due to the development of transportation, new regional development, education environment and changes in residential distribution by ethnic. Also, the main Korean business has transformed from retails and restaurant to real estate and finance because of changes in market strategies, institutions and Korean local migration.

The purpose of this study was to examine the first generation Korean-American mothers' attachment representation as well as the attachment representation of their second generation Korean-American college students. The subjects consisted of 25 first generation Korean-American mothers and 27 second generation college students residing in Los Angeles. The Adult Attachment Interview (George, Kaplan, & Main, 1985) was used for assessing attachment representation patterns. The results of this study were as follows. First, 36% of the subject mothers were classified as secure, 64% were insecurely attached and there was no unresolved/disorganized pattern in the insecure group. Second, 33% of the subject students were classified as secure. 67% were insecure on the AAI, and there was 4% unresolved/disorganized patterns in the insecure group. Third, a difference of 76% was found between the correspondence between the first generation Korean-American mothers' attachment representation pattern and the attachment representation of the second generation Korean-American college students.
