Article Abstract
Background: Over the past 5 years, the accident rate for children aged 1 to 6 has shown a decreasing trend, whereas the rate for infants (0-1 year) has been increasing in South Korea. This study aims to implement an intervention to improve infant safety among Vietnamese immigrant mothers in South Korea.
Design And Methods: This study utilized a pre- and post-test design with 15 Vietnamese immigrant mothers who were recruited from the Multicultural Family Support Center in C city, Korea. The research tools were safety knowledge, safety beliefs, and safety self-efficacy, and data collection was conducted through written surveys before and after the intervention. Then the collected data were analyzed using a -test for statistical analysis.
Results: The intervention resulted in a significant improvement in participants' safety knowledge, safety beliefs, and safety self-efficacy (all = 0.001).
Conclusions: These results demonstrate that the immigrant mothers are effective in preventing infant safety accidents and unintended injuries.

Mothers and children reported adverse life experiences in an interview, and mothers reported parental discipline strategies and their children's emotion regulation via a questionnaire.

The combination of discrimination and cultural-contextual stressors associated with acculturation demands and immigration processes cause stressful conditions for Latinos above and beyond daily, stressful life events experienced in families. This in turn, can have repercussions on parent-child relationships and family dynamics. We hypothesized that acculturative and general family stress would be associated with increased parental depression, which would negatively affect family cohesion and parents, and that these disruptions would predict children's internalizing symptoms.
