Marital Satisfaction and Cultural Integration of Cross-cultural Couples

A Case Study of Indonesian Women Married to Korean Men

This research aimed to study the relationship between level of marital satisfaction and cultural integration of Indonesian women who married to Korean men, who are at the time of research living in South Korea. Marital satisfaction is examined based on couples' conjugal life and three aspects (Korean language fluency, socialization, and living adjustment) are used to examine cultural integration. Result indicated that, demographically, respondents were varied in their province of origin in Indonesia. Most of them were in their thirties, high school degree holder, and mothers of primary school aged children. Two third of respondents were not merely housewives, none of them met their husband through marriage broker like other marriage migrant from Southeast Asia countries. In fact, most of respondents met their Korean husband in Indonesia through individual meeting. Marital satisfaction of respondents based on their conjugal life is considered high as well as their integration into the society in terms of the ability of speaking Korean and socialization. Overall, the level of integration is up to medium level. The examination leads to the result that most respondents are satisfied with their marriage and also well-integrate into Korean society. However, level of satisfaction on marriage life is not a direct factor to determine the level of integration. The most important factor actually come from respondents themselves, that is their eager will to integrate into Korean society. This explained why in the study we found respondents with high level satisfaction on her marriage but could not speak Korean well, less interact with Korean people and respondents who are very unsatisfied with her marriage but speak Korean very good, have many Korean friends. The eager will is supported by respondents' independence. They have freedom to do many things besides housework and could utilize that freedom well. This freedom is likely provided by their Korean husbands who do not restrict their foreign wives from self-actualization.

This research aimed to study the relationship between level of marital satisfaction and cultural integration of Indonesian women who married to Korean men, who are at the time of research living in South Korea.

Measuring the Burden of Disease and the Cost-effectiveness of Health Interventions

A Case Study in Guinea

World Bank Technical Paper No. 333.Draws on the methodology of QUOTEWorld Development Report 1993: Investing in HealthQUOTE to analyze the burden of disease and the cost-effectiveness of health care interventions. The analysis presents a framework for the activities of the government of Guinea in prioritizing health care services.

Student Discussions in Cooperative Learning Groups in a High School Mathematics Classroom

A Descriptive Case Study

Teachers want and need students to excel in the classroom. Cooperative learning is one method recognized to address this. Numerous researchers have shown that cooperative learning leads to improved skills in teamwork and communication in other fields (Johnson and Johnson, 2007; Slavin, 1995). Cooperative learning used in this study showed that the secondary math students benefited socially and academically through effective student communication. This case study reported observational evidence concerning the patterns and experiences of student interaction in discussions within cooperative learning groups in several high school geometry classes. Developed from data collected in observations, audiotapes, and student journals/notebooks, a multiple-case study was used to examine the discussions of two groups of students in cooperative learning groups. Each group participated in three activities: Placemat, to build team camaraderie; Numbered Heads, to strengthen positive interdependence; and STAD, to ensure individual accountability. Four patterns emerged when examining the data: change in attitude toward cooperative learning, the development of trust, group regulation, and the facilitation of math learning. Students showed a more positive feeling toward cooperative learning, stated an increased appreciation for cooperative learning, developed trust in their group members, and were able to analyze what they were doing well and what areas needed work. Math learning occurred when the students demonstrated how they solved problems by communicating using mathematical concepts and language.
