摘要:The development of this inventory for measuring the parenting self-efficacy of Korean mothers took place in Seoul with 473 mothers of 5th and 6th grade children. Means,%,χ²,Cramer`s V,Cronbach`s α,Split-half Reliability,factor analysis and Pearson`s r were used for data analysis. Five parenting self-efficacy factors were extracted from the 37 items developed for this study. Subscales were General Parenting Self-Efficacy,Health,Communication,Education,and Control. Criterion Validity of the 37 items was confirmed by a significant correlation with the Shin`s parenting self-efficacy(r=.71). Internal consistency of this scale was high (Cronbach`s α=.92),including internal reliability of subscales. Factor validity was satisfactory at .65 - .86. These results confirm this scale as a valid and reliable measure of the parenting self-efficacy of Korean mothers..
