초록

Despite positive changes in the cultural notion of unwed mothers in Korea, they still experience numerous challenges in their child-rearing efforts. In this research, we explored unwed mothers’ experiences and perceptions about their own resilience in wider contexts and the facilitative factors that may contribute to it through interviews and community genograms. Participants included 18 unwed mothers raising one or more children with the youngest child aged 0–6 years. Results revealed six themes in which these mothers drew on their resources to overcome challenges when navigating new social contexts as unwed mothers. Based on these findings, we proposed the Korean Unwed Mothers’ Ecosystemic Resilience model to conceptualize resilience and its facilitative factors. Implications on social programs and policies, as well as implications for the training of and support for counselors and health professionals, are discussed.

Abstract

Despite positive changes in the cultural notion of unwed mothers in Korea, they still experience numerous challenges in their child-rearing efforts.

Participants included 18 unwed mothers raising one or more children with the youngest child aged 0–6 years. Results revealed six themes in which these mothers drew on their resources to overcome challenges when navigating new social contexts as unwed mothers. Based on these findings, we proposed the Korean Unwed Mothers’ Ecosystemic Resilience model to conceptualize resilience and its facilitative factors. Implications on social programs and policies, as well as implications for the training of and support for counselors and health professionals, are discussed.
