본 연구는 한국에 여성결혼이민자가 경험하는 다문화가족 적응 형태를 그들의 입장에서 바라봄으로써 보다 질적이고 개별적인 간호중재 전략을 개발하는 기틀을 제공하고자 하는데 있다. 연구문제는 "여성결혼이민자의 자녀양육은 어떻게 이루어지고 있는가?"이다. 연구참여자는 여성결혼이민자 총 13명이다. 연구방법은 관찰과 심층면접, 상담, 그리고 주변 인물들을 통한 비공식적인 대화를 통해 자료를 수집하여 Spradley(1990)의 문화기술지 방법론을 적용한 질적 연구로 서술하였다. 결론적으로는 여성결혼이민자에서의 양육경험을 통해 다문화가정 어머니에게는 '의사소통의 장애', '열약한 양육환경', '이질적인 문화', '양육책임의 떠맡음', '고국가족에 대한 그리움', '미래에 대한 걱정'으로 나타났다. 다문화가정 가족에게는 '수치감', '양육의 무관심'으로 나타났다. 자녀에게는 '외톨이', '언어발달의 장애', '학습능력의 부족', '영양불량', '문제행동'이 나타났다. 다문화가정 어머니와 가족의 공통적인 요소에는 '다문화 이해부족', '의사소통 단절', '종속관계', '신뢰감부족'으로 나타났다. 다문화가정 어머니와 자녀의 공통적인 요소에는 '외모의 차이', '가족 사회적 차별'로 나타났다. 가족과 자녀의 공통적인 요소에는 '양육 참여 부족', '놀아주지 않음'으로 나타났다. 다문화가정 어머니와 가족, 그리고 자녀에 나타나는 공통적인 요소는 '사회적 편견', '불안정한 가족분위기', '저소득', '한국인으로 뿌리내리기'로 나타났다.
